Took 3 years for Funcom to fix AoC. Any hope for SW?

Reanor has made or posted in 3 different areas about not liking the game and going on about grind. As I said earlier, this poster has no intent to listen/discuss and has already made up his mind and is just trolling.
Yeah, it does seem like the OP's mind is fixed and set up and has no intention to play TSW at all, either bc of Funcom hatred or bc his mind is set on actually wanting another MMO to play.
More likely bored and looking to troll. Hence his numerous fishing attempts.
I won't touch the unique stuff anymore cause it never ends well. As far as kingsmouth I would definately say that police station was a hub, there isn't a minimum number of quests needed for an area with multiple quest givers to be called a hub. And that wasn't the only one, there are a couple of more in kingsmouth just that they have less than the police station.
I will admit though that its not very linear. There are many quests just spread throughout the place and the fact that you can only carry certain number of quests also helps that. Of course its linear in the sense that you just cant go anywere you want, there are still limits to were you can go. But, withing a big area like Kingsmouth you could move around doing different quest hubs or the singular scattered quests.
Setting
Ability Wheel
Crafting
ARGs
Ability to create outdoor plays (buying stage props and theater /emotes acted out on the stage in the park)
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means - except by getting off his back.
Well, if that's your definition, then heart quests in GW2 are hub areas as well, since at every heart location there are a number of quests/events you can get busy with
But anyway, let us just let it rest, this will only be splitting hairs about definitions and interpretations in the end. I think we can both agree that GW2 as well as TSW in their approach towards quest delivery have taken a step away from the typical quest hub take of MMO's like WoW, LotrO, Rift, etc, each in their own way 
As for the rest of the questions that the OP asked, I think other posts in this thread already picked that up, both the questions as well as the intent of the OP.
100% agree
Reasons Im into it.
1. Investigation missions - no quest markers, very little info given, need to research, think and explore to succeed
2. Skill Wheel - the pvp applications alone make in depth gameplay like nothing else ive played while opening up a huge variation in pve approaches to world and dungeon difficult encounters
3. Cosmetic - the clothing side being not gear related is hardly unique, the art direction does elevate this aspect to being worthy of note
4. Its not just zombies - its modern interpretation of many dearly held mythos spanning many cultures and periods of human history, as well as some pure fictionally referenced entities
5. Contemporary Suspense - the atmosphere of the world and the depth of the rabbit holes are some great set pieces with good story telling to support them with characters being more animated, colloquial and alive than biowares fourth pillar ever was
I know these are not all mechanics - but lets be honest it still is an mmo. You have skills, you use them to kill stuff. You have health bars, the enemy has health bars. You do stuff for npc's, or you just do stuff for fun. The big catch for me was that it makes you approach all of that with a different mind set, feeling of anticipation, and willingness to adapt due to what unique mechanics it does have while presenting a well crafted atmospheric fascimile of the world we do have for all this madness to take place in.
So AoC is fixed? time to check it out again.
Thanks.

Funny, isn't it. How your off-topic post says what it says, right above your sig box that shows that you never actually played AoC to start with. I mean you showed games you played as little as 2 weeks, yet I just am not seeing AoC on that list.
So what exactly was the point of your post in this thread again?
Ultima ONline (3 Years)
EverQuest (2 Years)
DAoC (2 Years)
SWG (2 Years)
Shadowbane (1 Year)
World of Warcraft (3 Years)
Guild Wars (2 Years)
Eve Online (4 Years)
Saga of Ryzom (2 Years)
Lord of the Rings Online (5 Months)
Warhammer Online (3 Months)
RIFT (8 Months)
SW: Old Republic (2 weeks LOL!)
Guild Wars 2 (TBD)
(DISCLAIMER - The use of the word YOU in the above post is not directed at any one person in particular, but towards those who fall into the category itself - there is no personal attack here, neither intentional nor implied.)
And? uniqueness is overrated anyways. if a MMO releases with non standard features which are not like your typical cookie cutter MMO it should be welcomed with open arms.
The day you find a 100% innovative and unique MMO let me know i will join too till then anything non standard is good enough.
I played AoC. Did the starting area and uninstall because when i played the games content passed level 20 wasn't that good. In themepark games I tend to be a quester, alt leveler and if the leveling content becomes bad i leave.
I wasn't trying to troll and I wasn't trying to derail. Honestly i wouldnt have enough room to list every game i played. Should i put down that i played AoC for 4 days? lol

I think these exact comments you posted in other threads have already been stated again and again to be false or at best highly subjective perception and not representative at all for the real situation by other people in the know, you might want to look up what all those other posters already commented about this tale of yours in those other threads
But hey, you're in luck, other people'll find out themselves in the upcoming beta and find out for themselves how it works for them or not.
Nothing false about it I crash to desktop 3-5 times a night. Its not the pc, so say that the game isnt buggy I dont care, when launch hits everyone will see it for their own eyes, and the zealous fans wont be able to lie to others. Seriously wouldnt you have learned by now not to trust a fanboy?
I don't think anyone is buying it anyways. he is not the only one testing the beta and everyone else so far who are also testing the beta has already called BS on his claims. I swear i checked forums and i couldn't find anything regarding this in any CB discussion.
Then you havent looked hard enough.
The $50 dollar question. I know the answer though.
"Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever." - Noam Chomsky
While there are some bugs that have been causing CTD, this has nothing to do with memory leak issues. In fact the only major memory leak issue I can remember was during the first beta weekend and fixed by the second.
Also update your video driver.
No infact i looked way too ahrd and found nothing. I am running 64 bit system and so is my brother and we had zero crashes. i asked my guildies too and no one has this problem or heard about it.
Mate, stop it before you embarass yourself even further. Don't act immature in your attempts of trying to convince that everyone has your problems just because you're pissed off that you're the one that's apparently having issues, only kids of 13-14 years old react like that.
If you have a problem with playing the game, well, sucks for you, I feel sorry for you. But don't try to make it as if everyone else has your problems when that's obviously not the case, only because your hatred and anger needs some kind of outlet.
Besides, people'll find out themselves in the upcoming days anyway, not only the ones that are in CB now (of which most if not all of them didn't have your problems btw)
Way to act like someone doesnt know what they are doing, my driver is up to date tyvm.
Really? What's Kingsmouth Code then?
Then it's something else with your PC. Perhaps video card is under spec for the game? Lower video settings for the game?
