It looks quite interesting; though some of the UI concepts look like it was stolen from other games (one is exactly like WoW and one features a top bar similar to titan panel). I'm surprised they're closing the team down, they're going to release a game that will be at least a bit successful and could have introduced microsoft to the MMO genre.

LOL, really are you so stupid you didn't notice that it looked like wow because it WAS wow.....

They put master chief infront of a wow screenshot, that or actually had a mod that skin master chief in him.

Though I don't recall ever seeing her work before, from what I read she was extremely nice (even when banning people!) and did her job as community manager the way it should be done. Sad such a great and young person has to die.

I think MMO devs need to stop letting us in on the creative process of game development. Of course ideas are going to be ammended, augmented or eliminated in this type of a massive project. If they just kept their big mouths shut, we would never have even known these classes and cities would have even existed.

I say the development period should practice silence. Then 1 week or maybe 2 before launch, tell us about the game features. We would have no clue about ideas that ended up on the cutting room floor and be a lot happier with our lollipop.

In this way, you wouldn't create a population of people attached to a feature that for whatever reason, doesn't make it into the game.

The only other option would be to educate the entire mmo game population about the nature of give and take on a huge multimillion dollar project spanning years. But somehow, I doubt a certain segment would ever understand.

Lol....... That would never work. It's not just the mmo game populations that needs some educations it's all of modern society. Whinning has become the complete norm. So pretty much being a wuss is promated and being a real man is hugely frown on. I take being a actual MAN then to fitting with the fags I mean cool people.

I say this is good. Less whiners at launch to deal with.

How the hell can you have Greenskins with no Orcs Boyz?

 

Seriously makes no sense at all. Whatever.

Easy, Choppa wasn't up to the quailty the devs wanted.  There is still the black orc.

Wow there is a bunch of retards here. Yea half the content is cut... ok. How so? The realms for them are STILL THERE. The only thing is is the captial cities. There were what 2 dunegons connected to each. Whoope doo.

It's amazing that as gamers for the last decade we've been fed nothing but low quality games with a few gems mixed in with the slop. And as soon as someone starts doing something for quality control some of us start to cry fowl.

If anything this interview makes me respect Mythic -and- EA.

Mythic for having standards and realizing that some content wasn't ready or up to said bar.

EA for what seems to be a genuine attempt at pulling their heads out of their collective arse, though that could quickly change.

For now I'll stick with their words and wait patiently for the NDA to be lifted; If they don't pull a Funcom that is.

 

Did they say not to long ago that they just needed to polish things up a bit and the game state was amazing and awesome?

And? They could of noticed during the polishing that those classes are were they want them to be. Deh deh deh.

blah this cutting content is retarded

i already beta'ed the Choppa.. give us what is promised.. this is silly

 

FINISH THE GAME ... THEN RELEASE

 

Why? Also a program is never finished. Especially a MMO. Cutting content is not retarded. If you think so, stop using any electronic device now. Since every program as something cut from it in development.

 Oh and any if they complain about PB still be on when not playing a game. DISABLE IT. Not hard. Not to mention who cares if it's running? Not like it's a virus scanning actually taking up a good amount of resources.

You = /wrist.

Good point. Does Vanguard have their Inquistor and Berserker yet???

Do we know of any games that removed professions, promising them at a later date and really did add them in?

 

Did vanguard have the backing of a company like EA? lol no it had SOE, yea great company to be backed by. And was vanguard as popular as WAR is? Nope. So you fail.

Look at what they plan for the cities, they plan on fixing any problems found with the current cities and put them in the ones not in yet. So we will just get better and better cities. God so much fucking whining these days. No wonder emo music is so popular.

Though this news is sad, I tend to think that they cities were not up to what they wanted, and may be same way for the players. As for the class cuts these will hurt as alot of people wanted to play those 4 classes. One thing for certain that i am glad to see, is Mythic dumping EA. EA has done very little in terms of being a good publisher and their methods tend to annoy alot of gamers due to the fact they force companies to put products out for a quick buck.

I think that mythic will add the cities and lost classes down the road when they believe they have them ready, and I know most of the players will miss both cities and classes until that time. Maybe, just maybe we will get a quality product instead of a shoddy crappy MMO which seems to be the main drive these days.

 

Where have we heard all this before... "oh it will not make launch, but will be added later"

I am so sick off mmos today!

 

So by your logic no game or even program will ever be released. If a developer wait to have everything they wanted in a program before release would now just be getting the first everquest. A program is like any other product, you can't work on it forever to you think it's perfect.

It seems there are some big idiots. 4 captial cities cut means just that, they were cut. Not the realm they were connected to. There is still plenty to do, and the cap cities is NOT the only siege content. There are keeps too. A city isn't suppose to be sieged for a few months anyway in the game.

If your sick of this Draccen just kill yourself now. It's happens in every product area. Just more noticed in the programming world.

This article had me LMAO. WTF is sooo unique and interesting about a race, class system. This has been done 10X over, do i really need to name off the games. OH WAIT!! It isn't the same as WoW, so it must be unique and interesting. LOL!!!!

/cut paste race, class

How about letting any race play any profession. That might make me like it again.

Every race has a tank, rogue, mage and healer. However they all play differently. So please list those games that is like that. And games like WoW and EQ2 and not like that at all.

Not to say that SWG is a disaster or something but since puzzles worked on KotOR and i really liked them dunno why they can't work here...I'm waiting for SGW too..and hope there will be at least a few puzzles like those from KotOR

This is a joke right? Really wtf. I mean puzzles are alright in a game like Mass Effect to open somethings.

But in a MMO? I'm glad I left this game long ago.

highly doubt EQ2 used a upgraded version of the SWG engine. I think you mean the otherway around. Atleast with the NGE and it's EQ2 spell like effects.

But seriously, well above was serious, the size of SWG planets and how engine would work that wouldn't fit with EQ2.

Holy shit, I haven't been saying this for like 2 years to all the naysayers using incomplete NPD data to say PC gaming is dying..... Not what was once my enemy is not my friend to use aganist naysayers

oh I get it now, they are like the galatic senate in star wars when the empire took over, just there to make people think their opinion is worth anything. Gotcha. Galactic senate= sad people who actually play the NGE Empire = SOE, well kinda, SOE wish it could be an empire in gaming.

So.... has this group been around for long? like pre-NGE? If so then they have done a great job
