Will SOE learn from SWG so we in EQII dont feel it?

    And any intelligent person would look at the swallowing up of Blizzard by SOE as a terrible thing, meaning that Blizz could no longer operate under the standards which they operate under, and they would feel bad about the whole thing.

     

    But you look forward to it with glee, hoping to see people who have the clarity of vision to see this suffer and respond to it on message boards.

    +1 for you I guess, have fun with your glee.

    Mine can be backed up fool. You have given nothing but conjecture. I'd be happy if yous could be 10% provable

     

  • ThinmanThinman Member Posts: 461

    How are yours backed up?  Your only argument is THEY ARE BIG, SO THEY MUST BE RIGHT.. that's just wrong.

     

    My argument is, they release games that aren't ready for release, just to get a bunch of money.  And they produce a star wars MMOG just to cash in on it, making  acrappy game and lying constatntly to their playerbase to get them to continue playing

    WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED?  WAKE UP.

    Who said I would be happy about? I never said that in the least. Where do you get this stuff. And you think Blizzard would be better with Microsoft or Largerene? They are being sold off you moron. They are not being tore off from the host and injested.

  • VineyardVineyard Member Posts: 180
    Back to the I think BIG=Good arguement are you. Gods you cant even understand something so simple as words. When the hell did I say that? I didnt, again you arreading into things, and very badly to boot

  • ThinmanThinman Member Posts: 461

    The result would still be the same if SOE got them.

    Blizz would break up, I guarantee it.  SOE is notorious for pasting thier way of doing things into companies that they buy..

     

    Blizz is in it for the gamers.. SOE's in it for the $$$.

    Having some knowledge of the game status today... Yes, you will recognize the SOE way of launching a game.

    Only game I wait for right now: Imperator.
    Go Mythic!

    "This is not a game to be tossed aside lightly.
    It should be thrown with great force"

    In any case I don't think either of us will sway the other, and we seem to both be misunderstanding each other, which is common on forums such as this.. so we might as well just stop arguing and lay down our arms as it were.

    The company that owns Blizzard now is selling them because they havent brought in enough money. Every parent company is in it for the money. And as for Blizzard breaking up, in effect they have. The main boss and alot of designers left when they heard about being sold by Vivendi, well before SOE ever even came into the equation. THey are even now debating forming a new company. So, the Blizzard you think you know is not the one that exists today.

    For one, whatever the hell your name is, I have just been defending against onslaught while endeavoring to show facts concerning the topic, not good, not bad. THe other guy was just coming at it from a differant point of view, not good, not bad. And if you dont think people should argue on these boards you should just leave now. And you can bet your ass the frustrations and arguements will be escalating til launch.

  • VineyardVineyard Member Posts: 180
    Though a long shot, Thinman, does your name have anything to do with the old movie series? Dont worry, this isnt an attack or trick of any kind, I am realy curious.

    I don't really know where I got the name from.. it was somewhere in the recesses of my memory and I just started using it.  I first used it in DAOC on the galahad server.

    I agree though.. the arguments and stuff probably will escalate til Nov 15th.. it's easy to get caught up in it all, especially for people who are waiting for the new MMOGs and are bored of the old ones...  a majority of the people on these boards probably usually spend a lot of their time on MMOGs, and with nothing to play we can only look to what's coming up.

    In any case, a good forum argument is a good way to blow off steam in this regard.. no doubt there will be a lot of them in the future.

    One can almost gaurantee they will. EQ2 and WOW will hit and calm everyone for  a time then we have D&D Online and Vanguard and, whats the other one, Imperator or something. The closer they get the more these same arguements will come back into the light. And too, you are very accurate, all this realy is is a way to blow off steam when it comes right down to it.

    First off it is safe to assume that the "J" in your name stands for jerkoff. Second if you are one of the fools that just calls SOE money hungry blowhards then you are not realy worth bothering with. If SOE is so bad and they put out crap then shut the hell up and play WOW. And if you could read you would have seen that I never said it was anyones fault that SOE has a bad reputation, because they dont. The bad reputation tag is given by ignorant individuals. If there reputation was SO bad nobody would be buying their games....but they are, by the millions and so are you which makes you an idiot and a hipocrit to boot. One of the largest companies in the world with a bad reputation, give me a break little one.  And you just being 17 you realy arent worth listening to. Call back when the other ball drops little boy.



    Ill tell you why people still buy there games jackass ever heard the term ''Consumer Whore''

    One ,I never said you hate SOE Doomsayer. Two, if someone had something valid to say I would agree or just not bother. But when it comes to all the people that lay down these blanket statements about SOE or the game without knowing any better one must protest. If someone would say " I just dont like SOE for whatever reason do to what I have dealt with", that would be one thing entirely. But these "SOE is evil, money hungry, blah, blah, blah" are quite another matter altogether. I mean sweet gay jesus, are we all to fall to the whins of conjecture, speculation and nigh subterfuge on every topic. This is why most of the world sucks, because people let any asshole open up and let out whatever is on their mind because. Now, Doomsayer, I am not making an attack on you, nor have I, nor will I. Hell, I never made a referance to you at all. Your prior arguments seemed well thought out, even if I disagree with them on principal. Who I cannot pathom or stand are those I have already mentioned . If I had a problem with you I would have directed something right at you. But no, I have never seem you call SOE the evil beast or anyhting or incessently bitch about anything, not in the least. You have stated you opinions in a civilized manner. And though I disagree with you on a number of issues I have found no ire with you directly. The statement I have made before were directed at those that do just what I have aforementioned.



    Ive never met a more ignorant close minded cave man than you. Congradulations you win the biggest asshole of the universe award heres your Cyanide spiked Kool-aid drink up shit head

  • VineyardVineyard Member Posts: 180
    Well put Jagoff. You do have such a firm grasp of the language. And your ability to prove a point by just copying what I said and then calling me asshole is second to none. Your stoic yet truculant observations are of the purest logic and euridition. Please continue to assume sarcasm at your own rate, as slow as that must be I simply cannot type that slow. I could at least respect those that used some point to context to insult someone. But to just copy what I put and then just add that I am a closed minded cave man asshole or something is just sad realy. Oh wait, I think I hear the little yellow bus honking  for you, you had best stop beating your Canadian bacon now and run off to special school. Maybe you can atleast learn to drool in a controled manner since you obviously cant think in one zipperhead.

    Wow, this arguement/thread just refuses to die.

    Since, I was in it at one point earlier, just thought I would say to Vineyard, that with what you wrote refering to someone earlier and those of his "ilk", I felt that I was being included in that "ilk". Thus my reply.

    No harm, no foul.

    To keep on topic: SOE SUCKS! hehe, just kidding. I pre-ordered EQ2 yesterday. And I must admit, what I saw on the disks really has me thinkig SOE could just change my mind about them. We shall see. I hope they do!image

    Everything born must die. All that is, will come to ruin. This is the essence of Doom. So sayeth the Doomsayer.

    The SWG launch had to have been the worst ever with failures in every aspect.

    • Server stability
    • Lack of content
    • and biggest of all...customer support. Their support teams were not even ready as they couldnt even communicate with themselves. How did they expect to communicate with the public? Their online support team had no idea of anything going on when the servers were down, crashed, or just having issues. Their repeated response was, "we dont know and are trying to find out..." or "all servers are up" in their banner messages, yet all servers down for the past 4 hours.

    Let us hope this launch they learn from such mistakes.

    Launch day I expect them to have some stability issues but not the content issue. Login servers will be overloaded so dont worry about paying for that overnight shipping on your orders...it wont matter...you wont be getting in.

    Customer support teams....I really hope they have gotten their act together. If not then SOE can forget about getting the most out of their investment. Poor customer support equates into lost sales.

     

     

    There are 10 kinds of people. Those that understand binary and those that dont.

  • VineyardVineyard Member Posts: 180

    I dont want anyone to think that the sun and moon sets st SOE. Every company has their share of issued, no exception to SOE. I too am hoping for the best from EQ2 launch, though only the gods know what will happen.

    Yeah I too thought that this thread had run its course until Zipperhead had to spout his shit my way.

    No worries Doom, I see that it may have seemed like I was including you in that statement, sorry about that.

  • 92165449216544 Member Posts: 1,904

    Remember that it isnt only SoE that produces the game. SWG and EQ2 will have many different producers. So I dont think you need to worry about anything.

    Everquest 2 for the WIN!
