  • Swindling their player base? I don't believe Funcom can be accused of swindle, by any stretch of the imagination. Unlike a lot of mmo publishers, Funcom has never abandoned any of their games even if they failed to live up to their profitability. Th…
  • Originally posted by fallenlords I am not sure people are facing up to the reality here.  Funcom has laid off or is in the process of laying off a huge number of Customer Service employees as well as the majority of the QA testers (who were on contr…
  • Originally posted by fallenlords Originally posted by petespri I agree OP.    FWIW, it'll be fun to watch TSW fanbois come flocking back to their forum... bcbully, bildodoggins, etc.  Haha, good times.   ps- Very objective review!  Can…
  • I am thinking this was done with intent. They have plans for both hairdressers and "Anima fuelled plastic surgery" both promised by the end of August. I feel this sort of creates a very realistic approach to character generation, we all have somethi…
  • It's actually a pretty amazing piece of technology that hasn't gotten the kind of press something like this deserves. It does however create a bunch of new problems, like the fact that chatservers sometimes fail across the boundaries. But still, bei…
  • Looking very good indeed. And they opened a new RP Dimension named Leviathan today, so it seems the players are piling in to. Glad things are going their way for once.  Conlai "Darkmoor" Macgregor Templar
  • Ok, going from a few bugs to unplayable is pretty over the top. For a game this size the Secret World has very few bugs, and they are being worked on. As far as investigation quests in Kingsmouth go, I know of 1 bugged investigation quest at present…

  • I also like the fact that the game is looking like an adventure/mmorpg hybrid. The investigation missions have been praised by a lot of players, and I expect Funcom to add lot's more of these in coming updates. That coupled with the fact that it loo…

  • It must be chafing the doomsayers something awful, that all their doomsday predictions about TSW has been proven to be without foundation in reality. Launch was as smooth as silk, people said it would crash and burn like other Funcom games. They cla…
  • Glad to hear that they nailed the Dungeons. I thought raiding/dungeons in AoC was pretty awsome, so I could never understand why everybody whined about it not having any end-game. I like that they actually require you to formulate strategies that ac…
  • So, I tried PVP at Fusang yesterday, ping was floating between 128-160 ms, which seems to be my normal range. I had my trusty QL1 Pistol, and setting my foot in PVP for the first time. So, was my ass handed to me by the Illuminati, yes it was, on qu…
  • Originally posted by n3v3rriv3r Originally posted by Connlai Explain to me, since I am so slow, how does a latency of 100 ms or 1/10th of a second render a non twitch game unplayable in your eyes. What sort of mad touchtyping skills do you guy…
  • Hi all, Thanks for the replies, I think that all of you raise some valid points, and I hope you are right, cause I am planning on staying here for a long time. I actually bought the Grandmaster pack with the lifetime subscription, so I am stuck wit…
  • And of course TSW doesn't have playable trolls, dwarves, elves or a Matrix where you can jack in and hack into companies, still it features a lower form of hacking, passwordguessing. What it does have is intriguing quests, a deep and detailed Lore, …
  • Explain to me, since I am so slow, how does a latency of 100 ms or 1/10th of a second render a non twitch game unplayable in your eyes. What sort of mad touchtyping skills do you guys have that will make or break a PVP battle in 1/10th of second (in…
  • A very cool article about Funcoms server technology, can be found here. The latency is not excactly an issue in an mmorpg where twitch skills is secondary to skill in building your character. Since all attacks are on a timer, what little edge you wo…
  • When reading this thread, which I agree with wholeheartedly BTW, a thought struck me, the people replying to this post, even reading this post are all probably like you, way past twenty, most likely 30+ gamers. So we're slowly drifting into the ster…
  • Logged in for 5 minutes before going to work today and was able to get hold of some of my pre-order/The Secret War items, including my mmorpg.com t-shirt, so it seems that part is working as well now.    Now I just have to finish off my shift and …
  • Someone mentioned animations being fixed, this is simply not try. top and bottom bodies are still treated as seperate entities. (learned this while trying to platform jump to some honeycombs) It is still true that they fixed animations, meaning t…
