All the big changes in 2013???!!!!!

[Seif]

really???

I've gone through the phonebook of info now 3 times over and it seems like they're dedicating another year only to minor tweaks for us who are still playing the game.

AH, player housing, terrain changes and storyline revamps are all for the very extremely distant future in 2013??

Can somebody please slap me and tell I missed something. I'm literally dumbstruck by this decision. It's like SE just punched us in the stomach.

The pdf certainly gives something worth waiting for but they're all basic MMO stuff most of the forum poster though were going to be implemented by march this year while the most pessimistic of trolls joked about them being ready around "2 years from now". I can't believe they were right.

I just wish this is all a big mis-understanding of hilarious proportions on my part and or this is all just a terrible nightmare.

2.0 is Q4 2012, early 2013 is release of the PS3 version. That's how I interpret it anyway.

Still am I the only one who thinks that's incredibly far away?

Based on the pdf they're going to postpone all the major changes by an entire year.

So, you don't want to wait 1 year and would rather like to play a buginfested game?

Basically, yes. The game is not done yet. It's no more ready to be released than Skyrim was last year, but that didn't keep them from hyping it.

I only wish if its 6months later ~ not a whole year b/c its faaar awaaay xD but i hope next updates will help me wait .

Game development takes a very long time, and given how much was wrong with the game and how much they're having to rebuild, I'm not at all surprised by the timeline.

[Seif]

Well that is a tough question. Honestly I just thought they'd be faster than announcing it'll still take the same the time usually a normal AAA title takes to develop from scratch.

I guess this news is in no way shocking tot he crowd that has been singing SE praises after every patch because that's all they're going to get for another year.

I just really wanted to keep playing until all these changes arrive but now that they stated how long it will take and at the same time they're hitting us with a monthly fee it's like they're forcing us to quit for a year.

I guess I'll probably end up just buying few months here and there since I already bought all that crysta at launch.

I wholeheartedly agree. It really isn't enough at this pace. I was quite taken aback too. We won't get server improvements for a year and yet that was the biggest issue with the game since alpha. You'd think this ought to have been their first priority and to be released ASAP.

I think they spent too much time trying to make a different game instead of improving the game they had.

They played the long game. And in the meantime lost the short game.

They said they could please current players while still making the game for 2013, but they can't. They haven't.

Who are you talking for? You sure as hell aren't a current player.

It's like SE just punched us in the stomach.

I'm not a particularly violent person but the people who played this game only "because it might get better later" needed that punch to get in touch with the reality. If you didn't like this game from the beginning why did you play it?
