      Well my bad. I could have sworn that AoC had had 900k sales at release, while WAR had 500k. I actually have more pressing things to deal with at the moment, so trivia escapes me.

      If not knowing what MMO sales figures are makes me an idiot, then so be it, but I'd rather not know trivia than fail at reading comprehension like you do.

     

     

     

    This is a sequence of characters intended to produce some profound mental effect, but it has failed.

    You're missing the point.  Warhammer had more hype prelaunch by far than AoC ever had.  Therefore Warhammer had farther to fall than AoC.  Mythic foolishly opened up a ton of servers because they believed the fan hype would translate into a ton of subs.  It didn't happen (for a variety of reasons).  Players were wanting a MMO based on the Warhammer IP for years because they felt that it was the best possible fit for PvP.

     

    I define that as a huge disappointment, bigger than AoC.

     

     AoC had more initial sales than WAR, so obviously AoC had more hype than WAR.

    You're missing the point: If WAR had had more hype, then it would have had more sales at release, but it didn't, so you're wrong.

    The award for biggest fake Xfire loggings goes to the Korean. No doubt about that.

    When you start making statements based on incorrect information, it doesn't make you look like you know what you're talking about.  You are the one that brought up that AoC must have had more hype simply because it had more initial subs (which even if that was true wouldn't mean that).  Hell you even got Cammy to agree with me, which is actually pretty impressive.

      I brought it up a few times, yet you lacked the faculties to understand it apparently and yes more sales at release implies more hype.
