First of all,i am not a fanboy but I enjoy AoC and was skeptic about playing it,but it turned out great.First of all please note,that there are 2-3 people hired by a company or just demented over-religious WoW fanboys that are making multiple accounts and posting rubish and lies with no backing. Soo here it goes: 1.EA rant - it was stated time and time again that EA will be limited,alot of people either didnt read or waited until the last second to register before servers went up,well after you couldnt get it you started screaming,ranting etc. Well if you wanted to get into EA that bad ,it was in your best intrest to register the code sooner and not at the last freaking second. 2.OMG,AoC has hi-system specs - yeah it does,it isnt very friendly to whiney kids whos parents dont want to buy them a new comp,most of the client was very optimized at launch (note: most) 3.OMG,the whole game is instanced - only the first 5 levels you are put in a small linear instance,the rest are bigger zones,but I guess most bashers cant know this since they didnt even play passed lvl 5,exemples of large areas in tortage: "white sand isle" 4.Funcom scammed me - pray tell,how did they scam you ? it was your own fault for not reading,if you are incapable of reading then it is no one's fault except your own. 5.I noticed that alot of threads on the WoW forums were posted about how much AoC sucks and that everyone hated it ,note that this was on the day the EA servers were to be launched,but they didnt do enough research and posted sooner then even the servers where launched.Proves how desperate some kids are to keep mature people in their game to hold their hand. Soo,sort story,dont belive threads that bash AoC made by people with less than 25 posts or that post on alts on their MMORPG forums.

Originally posted by airstrike I agree 100%. Its funny...people like myself and Avery have posted for months trying to show that the beta leaks and whiners were full of _____. And people would call us fanbois and try and convince the community we were lying and to not listen to us. Apparently, we were just making stuff up and the leakers were to be trusted. We told people to just wait for release and you will see. |

1) yes it was stated over and over again ON THEIR FORUMS, it was not stated on their advertisements or the pre order crads. The cards said you cant even download the client till the 14th (which wasnt true) It didnt say you had to sign up BEFORE the 14th. Some people have jobs and arent rabid fanboys that follow the forums of a game that isnt even out yet, they pre ordered AOC for the early access, and made time to play it this weekend, all the literature on the adertisements and the pre order cards said, if you pre order you get into the ea, they didnt say "limited number" or you have to register before the 14th. 4) they used ea to sell pre orders, and now they claim that the ea was never part of the pre order, even though the pre order clearly states that it provides you with 2 things, an ingame item and early access. So tell me how getting people to pre order your product with the promise of early access, then not only not giving you that early access but also claiming they never promised early access not a scam? |

Originally posted by templarga Bah, I did not run away.....I got busy playing a better game and gave up! AoC still does not live up to the hype and I'll admit from what I'm hearing a bit has changed since I last played but its still not even close to what it should have been! |

I would like to add that I do not find the game perfect,but what shocked me the most was the lack of any immaturity atleast on my PVE server.Everyone was enjoying the game,the only thing some people whined about was that their FPS sucked and that their new comp wasnt arriving soon enough. |

Originally posted by airstrike In regards to your comment on EA. A lotta people are mistaken and it pisses me off that theyre calling us lazy or too slow to activate. This is simply not true. I pre-ordered my game from Amazon (big mistake) 2 months ago. And despite my numerous emails and complaints, I did NOT receive my EA CD key code until the 17th. I therefore had ZERO chance to get into the EA. This clearly wasnt my fault and I have every right to be upset over this. |

Originally posted by admriker4 Ok I have to agree on this one,alot of retailers didnt distribute their mount codes on time,but this wasnt Funcom's fault.If I hadnt called the guys I pre-ordered from and asked them to send my mount code I might not have early acces. |

Bump for great justice. Just not even 2 hours ago, I logged into my old game EQ2...saw a massive discussion on AoC with the words "suck" in the sentence.. When approached about why it suck | |
