GW2 is going to disapoint a lot of people for sure, and the cash shop is a show stopper for me.

As such, my guild agreed last night that we're quitting unless we get new content in May. Particularly with Diablo 3 and Guild Wars 2 on the horizon. Now granted - James Ohlen himself has promised there will be monthly updates:



I suppose we'll have to wait and see. I'm certainty not holding my breath. Swtor currently feels very dull and static. For a Raiding Guild - we collectively were not impressed by EC. Though it's a step in the right direction from the abomination that was Tier 1.

Anyone else feeling the same regarding 1.3?
No, I actually enjoy the game. GW2 is not that impressive, if people complain that this game is to linear, GW2 is way worse. Also D3 is not even in the same game type category as TOR so it does not matter.

They will be back when they see how much of a trainwreck GW2 is and we will have to deal with them again.

I'm pretty upset about Diablo 3 to be honest. Diablo 1 to Diablo 2 was a HUGE improvement. More classes new locations, compaions and so on. Diablo 3 feels like Diablo 2 with shiney new paint and in some ways a step back.

Which is fine for some but I was hoping for a bit more. I'm sure I will buy it but it won't be a day 1 buy for me and I won't be hooked on it like I was Diablo 2.

Why would you unsub if a patch isnt out by may. That just shows impatience. This is a great game that is still new. There will be bugs that will get fixed, content will eventually added and the game will get better. You cant expect everything in an mmo to be instant gratification. Hell it took WOW 7 years to get to where it is today and when wow first began it had 100s of less features and instances/end game content than what swtor has.

So if you cant wait at least 4 - 5 years for an mmo to reach its peak than maybe you need to go back to solo games where instant gratification is guarenteed. Unfortunatly thats just the nature of mmos.

So true. I was excited to try Guild Wars 2 this weekend for beta, totally sucked. I mean it was so bad I couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried. By far the worst MMO I have ever played. Having said all that, I think This game is good, but I'm bored out of my mind so if 1.3 doesn't come with some major content than I will be gone, TSW beta weekends start May 11th. Maybe that game will be good, if not then TOR is about the only game worth messing around with for now.

They went right back to playing WoW and either TOR or Rift. Just a little funfact, they were both the same kind of people that were hyping it to be the second coming for MMOs.

Just so we're also clear their complaints weren't the performance issues even though the game had more than should be tolerated even for a beta test. They didn't like how the 'dynamic' events were just a different way to initiate the same old quests we've been playing for years now, the voiceover work is subpar at best, the visuals weren't as impressive as they seemed from promotional material, PvP is nothing more than an AoEfest and smacking on doors most of the time, and when they found out there are no raids except outdoor bosses that just mostly stand in one place and let you beat on them... yeah they immediately went for a refund.

As well, didn't you say that you are a RAIDING GUILD? If you are then at what point did any lackluster PvP in TOR make you decide to take your RAIDING GUILD to GW2 for it's PvP? I sure hope the PvP in that game works for you because if it doesn't you'll be saying, "Oh well at least we can raid...... ummm guys where are the raids?"
You nailed it. I took a day off work on Friday to play GW2 beta, expecting something totally different than what it is. Now I have spent the last day trying to get them to answer my emails asking for them to cancel my prepurchase so I can get my money back. I couldn't play that game no matter how bored I was of any other. Sucks too, because I wanted it to be a good game. I was shocked at how bad it really was. The quests are about as engaging as playing Pac-Man as an MMO would be, sorry Pac ole boy, you're better than that I know.

Unsub? No way! I am having way too much fun playing.

Guys, you are missing the main point of this thread.... OP is gonna unsub in two days, this is serious business. Bioware has to do something drastic to ensure that OP continues his sub, the fate of the galaxy depends on it.

Wish they would just start perma-banning people who threaten to quit. I mean, they are unsubbing anyway, why not throw an immediate ban their way so we don't need to hear them telling us why they alone can't have fun... ad nauseum.

BW, make it so, you know you want to, and perma-banning these people isn't going to lose you customers... they have already unsubbed or are that close to it, their voice no longer matters.
