in News & Features Discussion

The Defiance team at Trion Worlds is on fire. The folks have been pushing out patches, fixes, and DLC at a much quicker pace since the team all consolidated to San Francisco when Scott Hartsman took over as CEO late last year. Hot on the heels of the 7th Legion DLC, new outfits and weapons, new factions, and incursions, Trion is prepping The Gunslinger Trials: it’s first major story-focused DLC. We caught up with Creative Lead Trick Dempsey to chat about the Trials and all the new stuff it’s bringing to Defiance when it launches in March. There will be some story spoilers ahead, so be warned!

    I'm so behind on the story I need to play more, it is a fun game though. I find myself getting lost for hours when I log in expecting to just be on for a few minutes. Not a full fledged MMO but a fun shooter with MMO elements.

    All they ever needed to add was story-driven, faction based PvP with a good solid point to the system.

     

    Everything about the game and the story of Defiance screams solid PvP IMO...yet they've continued to avoid it.

    Several years ago when I was a range officer at an indoor shooting range, on many occasion I ended my safety orientation by telling certain female customers that their cleavage was a safety hazard. ;-)

    It's "cavalry," not "calvary."

    I dunno, Rift was Trion's crowning jewel, and along came Defiance and it was just a smelly turd. I got this game because i loved the idea of the T.V. series and the tie in with the game, that idea was just poorly implemented, that fact that the show took place in a completely different geographical location was such a bad move.

    Then the biggest and most glaring problem for me was the patcher, where it would drop you anywhere from 50%-90% and restart the entire download over and over took over 2 weeks to actually get the entire game digitally and cost me 42 gigs in overage charges cause my internet is metered. I knew what i was doing when i downloaded it but i never expected the patcher to be such a dismal failure as it was.

    The gameplay for me was ok, but seriously it really did not have much meat to it. The fact that you leveled your weapons but they maxed out and became useless was just mind boggling.

    Defiance could have been amazing, and maybe it will become that but until i see some huge changes i doubt i will ever bother with it again.

    Lolipops !

    It can be assumed because they typed it and there is no citation.

    “It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money - that's all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot - it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.”

    How is the population in this game? Is it doing well?

    It's a shame we still have to go to third party sites to get this information instead of on their official blog and forums.

    And what on earth does this mean?

    "The team’s also adding a new weapon back for purchase in the store that has a chance to drop rare outfits from across the game."

    Might want to update the retail price up at the top as well. It goes for $9.99 in a lot of places, $15.99 in others and $19.99 at the most.

    Because citing sources is as common here and knowing the difference between one's opinion and fact.

    There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

    population is steadily growing on PC/NA
    as the haters deminish, Defiance is Defiant to the last and refuses to die. this is good entertainment that is getting better albeit slowly.
