  •  Just wanted to make a note here, I actually updated my rankings to move Night Elf from #5 to #4 on the list for the Alliance!    Be sure you guys don't make a horrible choice that you'll regret a year down the road  
  • Originally posted by AdyS13 I'm playing a human paladin,as overpowered a blood elf can be I simply can't roll that,it looks like a faggot. Roll something you like and you're not ashamed to play with.If someone things that he can win with the raci…
  • Originally posted by markyturnip at the very least we will see a bunch of games that match WoW's numbers   Marky, I'm afraid you're sadly mistaken if you believe this. 
  • Xfire is a fair data source for looking at activity trends within a single game, but you can't directly compare the actual numbers from one game to another, only the trends.
  • How can anyone put a positive spin on 15 consecutive quarters with negative earnings?
  • Shares slipped again today, down to 14.60 FUNCOM
  • Originally posted by AmazingAvery Originally posted by Talgen The fact that the stock has dropped and the CEO himself has sold 18.7% of his own shares isnt  a good thing either. But they came in at $1m more revenue than was forcast the previ…
  • Warhammer is really going to make it tough for Funcom to recover.   MMO fans seeking the latest and greatest will jump aboard Warhammer when it launches, and Age of Conan has not developed any brand loyalty at this point due to the errors and conten…
  • Originally posted by Zekiah They're now claiming on the official forums that most of the "naysayers" are short traders rofl. "Most of you naysayers are short sellers or day traders only interested in what a stock does during a few day period. MO…
  • It seems investors are really distancing themselves now with this bad news and the digestion of unrealistic guidance in the report.  Stock price currently showing 16.30; hopefully the market will continue to punish companies who offer a misleading s…
  • To posters insulting me and claiming I am merely writing biased WoW-fanboy-drivel, I request that you read the article and note that I am just reporting the facts straight out of Funcom's past financial reports. There is no spin here, the numbers …
  • Originally posted by ghogiel Much appreciated, Briyan ! Both for the news and writeup. I had been expecting this report for a while~ I know it's going to be around this date -- it's just that I'm not sure w/ the timezone. Out of 800,000 -- 415,00…
  • Originally posted by Gazenthia Originally posted by openedge1 Example : "As shown in the data graphed above from xfire.com," Displayed with a graph NOT from Xfire. This could be true or not, but Xfire has no way to go back as far as he has the ch…
  • openedge1, I still have not played the game. My articles are merely tracking the reception of the game by players.  I had a pretty good idea of how lackluster Age of Conan was going to be based on the pre-release media materials and the descriptio…
  • Originally posted by openedge1 Absolutely not, but that you as the delivery agent is not credible. If this would have been on a personal blog or other news agency (like Massively, etc.) then I would have been more willing to read about this. The fa…
  • Originally posted by openedge1  I do find it amusing how everyone here is having a conversation with this guy like he is an expert. His original name on WoW riot was Briyan Anonymous (lol), then after he had to retract a hate post about AoC, he chan…
  • I agree, Azrile, it seems like they are content to mislead as much as possible via press releases.  Certainly I can understand that marketing is a big part of game sales, but I think they have gone a bit too far here.  I can only hope one or more of…
  • Originally posted by Azrile Funcom delayed the release of their quarterly report until August 24th.  It was supposed to come out today. My guess is that they wanted to be able to use the 'buddy passes' as a way to prop up their numbers. " AoC reach…
