Yeah, ridiculous "promise" claims don't work on non-promises.
Fine, you're a dad who makes empty promises to your child. That's not even remotely close to selling a product (re-subs) on a feature you don't add.

I dont really care that ranked wz's got postponed since i had to reroll off a dead server, but you just sound like a fanboy. BW didnt say they were going to TRY to get the ranked wz's into 1.2 when they anounced it, they said they were coming with 1.2.

Personaly i think bw would be idiots to release ranked warzones before they fix their server population problems.

Your son also doesn't pay you a monthly fee for ice cream.

If you told your son in 3 months you'll be getting some new flavor of ice cream, then a day before the big moment you went, "Oh yea sorry son, we won't have the new flavor for an undetermined amount of time. We just realized after making 100 batches that the ice cream doesn't taste good and the cups are way too big. We do have cones though!"

I'm pretty sure your son would be skeptical of any future ice cream endeavors. He may even give it up all together and try out some new Korean ice cream that actually tastes good - and has sprinkles!

The PvP development team has decided to revamp open-world - Stephen Reid's post on that page.

There's even a screenshot about it from the Guild Summit.

More data gathering last month.

Interview with Gabe Amatangelo here:

I mean, we want to do it, and the PvP team especially wants to do this sort of thing, of course, but it just wasn’t in the cards leading up to launch. So this is stuff in the future, and that we’re already thinking about and working on.
Lots more info in that interview.

And more. Need I keep going?

Doesn't matter. He knows that no matter what, the only time a promise is a promise is when I say, "I promise". That's it.

Figured that was obvious common knowledge, but once again I stand corrected on the condition of humanity...

Reroll now. Nobody is getting a free transfer off a light server.
Looking for a good woman. Able to clean, cook, sew, catch bait, and clean fish. Must have boat and motor.
((Please send picture of boat and motor))

Except they also said "As always, subject to change based on testing." Again, I"m not freaking defending anything. Just calling it the way it is.

Reality bites, I get that. But claiming something that isn't reality is NOT going to help your cause.

Per Gabe from your link:
Quote:
We’re going to be addressing the open world PvP very soon now, by first addressing the timed events and some of the balancing mechanics to concentrate things.
Addressing it very soon, by first addressing something that ISN'T it, is NOT 'working on it as we speak'.

When you're a man among boys, posting here at all can be challenging. The current generation seems to make a habit of continuously setting itself up for failure.

I've made one promise - to my wife, and then only once.

I guess you haven't kept up. They already did that. That interview was two months ago....
