Fanboys versus Skeptics

Interesting thread how fans are making fun of a skeptical beta tester
Comments
It's like a pack of rabid dogs and the OP is a juicy Prime Rib with kibbles'n'bits.
They can only resort to insults because ...Well....The "game" speaks for itself. That community has turned into the worst group of blind (and rude) fanboi's I have ever seen.
Funny thing is, the fanbois will be the ones qqing when this game becomes an epic fail the likes of which has never been seen in the MMO world. Then they will blame it on everyone else.
I was thinking the exact same thing. When the addicted junkies become "aware" that what they are playing isn't fun anymore, they'll blame everyone and everything but themselves.
I was a fan-skeptic for a while. I haven't been able to login for two weeks, but what I did see didn't impress me.

The game is actually pretty good but its hard to keep expectations being an indie developer. I wish the devs wouldn't say anything at all. I understand how they keep letting people down but damn, keeping you people happy is hard. This is a troll thread about a QQ thread.
I was in the same boat- Honestly I think the community at MO was a really good one considering its a PVP centric game- Since Open Beta many of the good ones just left leaving the diehard "everything is great" crowd who answer ANY critical thought with "Its a BETA" (as if that makes everything okay)
I suspect that even many who might be on the fence are chased away by the community for bringing up valid points and being called a crybaby.
SV is essentially saying the patch was delayed but thats okay because hey are going to add more stuff- This annoncement came midway through the day the Patch was supposed to come out. Anyone with sense would realize they are having major issues here and they had to have known this (and could have announced this) long ago.
People complain about lack of communication and the fanbois scream "they dont have time to communicate- they are working" which is funny as hell because a quick call to a community manager during a coffee break (oh, they dont take breaks? Well, an after hour phone call works to.) could solve this.
Everything with this game is based on lies and deception and now the attack dog community is putting the final nail in this coffen.
My personal favorite from today:

Also when hackers have been reported GMs/devs have said they "will revise the logs".
Played the game from Saturday to Sunday (15-20 hours of gameplay time). From Vadda to Meduli and then to Fabernum.
Didnt see a single hacker. In open beta where hackers dont risk anything. With almost no cheat prevention systems.
But hey keep on your predictions. I find them pretty interesting ^^ EndQuote

Hey... I found Bagdad Bob!!! I was wondering where that guy went after the invasion. He was the greatest.
"There are no American infidels in Baghdad. Never!"
"They're not even [within] 100 miles [of Baghdad]. They are not in any place. They hold no place in Iraq. This is an illusion ... they are trying to sell to the others an illusion."
"They do not even have control over themselves! Do not believe them!"
"Just look carefully, I only want you to look carefully. Do not repeat the lies of liars. Do not become like them. Once again, I blame Al-Jazeera before it ascertains what takes place. Please, make sure of what you say and do not play such a role."
"Listen, this explosion does not frighten us any longer. The cruise missiles do not frighten anyone. We are catching them like fish in a river. I mean here that over the past two days we managed to shoot down 196 missiles before they hit their target."
"It has been rumored that we have fired scud missiles into Kuwait. I am here now to tell you, we do not have any scud missiles and I don't know why they were fired into Kuwait."
"What they say about a breakthrough [in Najaf] is completely an illusion. They are sending their warplanes to fly very low in order to have vibrations on these sacred places . . . they are trying to crack the buildings by flying low over them."
Man I missed you Bob!!!

Why do I sorta agree with you? Am I a hater?
Well to be fair, the original post was a bit trollish. One line of sarcasm. But yeah, the overreaction to it does stink of desperation.
the thing is that both haters and fanbois are wrong. They provide a very skewed perspective of the game. Best advice is to ignore both and see for your self.
I have played it and have not enjoyed it so far, waiting for the next patch.
Just wondering....
What is the proper response to
"and it disappoints again
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
so when gets mo rescued by the for today announced miraclepatch?"
I suspect much of the criticism of the OP is based on having a complaint where you don't actually mention anything besides the lack of a miracle.
Fanboys versus Skeptics??? It's not even a challenge.
I win!!! LOL@U
I have played it and have not enjoyed it so far, waiting for the next patch.
I have found the ones who did not enjoy it usually try to run it solo and do not socialize at all. It takes time to get into the game an understand what to do. Once you figure it out the game is truly amazing.
My suggestion for anyone that cant figure the game out.... join a guild.
There is 2 types of MMO players, those who have imagination and determination and those who play themepark.
When the babies cry, it means something needs attention and something is out of place or is wrong.
Ignoring that or make fun of it does not make a situation better, much like a real baby.
Funny how parenting common sense work on forums as well.

Nasir64- You seem logical. I dont think (based on your post) you are a raging fanboi.
You may be right in some cases- In my case the game was unplayable and the community turned atrocious (I dont mean every last member of the community- But the community as a whole)
Many of us love the idea and the featureset and the attempt at a hardcore sandbox- We are just in awe at the implementation of these ideals which we (I)consider horrible.

There are enough failed games in both camps to show the idiocy of such a statement.
There are players with standards and those without.

I guess you need to have a pretty determined imagination to pretend the game isnt fucked up.
If you stand VERY still, and close your eyes, after a minute you can actually FEEL the universe revolving around PvP.
I personally prefer the Baghdad Bob impersonation....

Sir, You win this thread!!!

That reminds me, I must give the White House a ring tomorrow and let them know I found him. Advertising British car insurance, the perfect disguise!

Calm down dear! There are NO HIDDEN COSTS in our insurance premiums!
EDIT: Arse, can't get images working. Oh well.
Hmm where did I mention the game didn't have issues? I am simply stating that those who huddle around the cities mining granum for no reason, other then because the "HERD OF SHEEP" (other players) are doing it post about how the game has nothing to offer them simply lack the determination to figure out a game and are more suitable for a themepark style game.
Some of us are seasoned to understand the concept of games like this and how it is meant to be played. MO isn't for everyone and those who cannot grasp it are free to leave. Plenty of others can see the game for what it is and what it can and hopefully will be. When you craft your first tungsteel 2h and kill someone with it then come talk to me about knowing about the game. Until then you are just like the rest of the sheep who pass by. Fun times for us "seasoned" players.
Some of us are even more seasoned and can recognize a steaming pile of dung for being a steaming pile of dung... even if it could potentially be used as fertilizer to grow a wonderful flower some day. I'm sorry.. I have been in MO on day one of beta A and I have been active in the open beta. In my opinion there is no game. There are some half finished systems that are lumped together in a Unreal Engine generated world. In my opinion it has a TON of work to go before it can be called a sandbox. Sandbox does not equal unfinished game with no content, but if this is your cup of tea.. more power to you. Different strokes for different folks.

Apparently you never played Shadowbane. What kind of content are you asking for? Shadowbane had cities with merchants NO QUESTS, and minor drops. The best gear was crafted and the ONLY thing to do in game was PVP and burn down cities. Mortal Online mirrors this with a much nicer engine a more engaging environment and some interesting aspects (mounted combat, flagging system, taming, very indepth crafting system).
