Returning to Defiance.

While I've been reading through the forums about what changes have been happened and while it seems not too much has changed. I'm ok with it. The reason I left was because I got bored with the same old same old. Since I am a season pass holder the DLC is coming to me so I actually took an interest. I like new arkfalls are slated to work out. (I haven't seen anything about how the tests are going on it but I'm still curious)
Since With that in mind what are the differences between paid / non paid in this DLC. I understand its not going to be that drastic but I'm curious.
Any thoughts on the new stuff? I'm not looking for this to be whats going to be wrong with it. Just what is supposed to come.
Thanks

On this very site, they detail what's to come in the DLC.

Since you are a season pass person, I don't understand why you'd want to know what the people who aren't getting the DLC are missing out on. It's their loss. They won't get to play with the new weapons, but I heard they'll be able to do the new ark instances.

You should probably read up in the alpha server section of the forum if you want to know impressions on the new DLC.

I ask about what people are not getting because I have 5 people that played and 3 of them enjoy it enough to at least give the free content a shot. So to be nice to my friends besides that I'm curious.

Your friends too lazy to look up info themselves? I'm sure someone who cares more than I do will get around to answering you.

I hope that you aren't the example of the player base left in defiance.

1. Go to the main site.
2. Click on the Arkbreaker DLC article link
3. Read where it says something like "Free for all players"

Holy ****...

Don't mind Jet. Lots of the remaining forumites have gotten cranky and cinical. Anyway he is right about where to look, but here you go anyway.

*giggles*

Games with smaller player bases (i.e. bombs) often have a bitter and twisted core of devotees who snap at even perfectly innocent questions like yours. I think they become overly defensive as a result of all the (justified) negative feedback / ranting about their game.

My experience in the game was pretty positive though. The one time I needed help - an unsoloable story mission - it wasn't hard to find.

I really don't care how jaded people no bloody point to bash people who ask a simple question. Dont like my view on it. Suck it. I have owned the game since the day after the show aired. Cause I still enjoy the game despite the problems are. I came back.
@ Carnak If you are on the 360 look me up :) Zombielord889 I'll be happy to play with you
@ Yoda, Welcome I really am glad to see new players in the game. And if you're on the 360 look me up :)
@ Atticus Thank you for taking a moment to answer my question.

Yeah. Give that some time.

There is a distinct difference between kindness and politeness. You can be both, one or the other, or neither. I feel it's easier to be polite than it is to be kind in most situations that push me to the point of unkindness. I'm very laid back however, so those instances are few and far between. Can't say the same for certain others that prowl these forums.

otoh, I can spend 10 minutes typing something out that you either wont bother to read, maybe you wont even come back to the forum at all. And if you do read it you might decide I'm full of shtako and discount everything I have to say.

OR: YOU could take those same 10 minutes and use the forum and/or Google and figure it out by reading more than I can type in that time.

It's not a case or question of me being cynical or rude. I've already got thousands of posts and many of them already outline how things work, how I feel, or things I've seen and know and commented on. That's a lot of time I've already spent documenting and discussing. I answer newbs questions again and again in the game.
[Multiply that by lots of better people than me, who have done the same.]
I even cite chapter and verse at times to websites with complete details, and youtube vids like Grimwyrd put up explaining how synergy works. And 10 minutes later they're asking again, getting incorrect speculation from other newbs and advising other people with incorrect info.

To whom it may concern: Take 10 minutes of your time, for a change.

Some of us get tired answering the same questions that are surprisingly often on the first or second page of this very forum.

In closing, Yoda, I *have* enjoyed talking to you in game.

:)

C'mooon, that's not the face of someone full of shtako. :) It's the face of friendship and happiness and maybe a bit of insanity on the side.

Dont like typing out info, but spend 10 minutes typing a rant logic fail

Says the 20 count poster, to the 3k poster who has helped out probably 200 people on this forum, with a magnitude of problems....

gotta love them nooblits!

Ellissa,
It isn't so much about the content, really. The Paradise Territories hold a lot of fun and adventure for those who seek it in the right way.
Sure, things may not have changed by way of content or things released or whatever but Defiance DOESN'T have to be boring or drudgery.
On the XBL NA servers, The Dawn Patrol has found new ways to enjoy the Defiance experience and to enjoy our time with each other, which is what MMO gaming is all about. And Dawn Patrol isn't the only group doing it! This forum and community is working to keep Defiance ALIVE for everyone, from the casual player on up to the launch-day Ark Hunter Dedicated.
If You want to find a good group to re-enter Paradise with and start finding fun again, You have come back to the right place!

The more people that get into this game the better the game becomes. Go tell your friends and their friends and their uncles and aunties to tell their friends that there be treasure in those arkfalls (in a pirate accent). Now go Defiances young padawans, spread the word so they heed the call of the Arkhunter! Gather in paradise by the masses and slaughter all that falls in your wake, and reap in the treasures you sow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY YOU STILL READING? BE GONE!

Well said I'll look into hitting up the daw patrol if I get that far back into it. I do have hopes for what is coming in Arkbreaker from what I've read.
For everyone else who took the time not to ***** me out. Thank you

You're welcome. I DO try, but I am but one person. There are plenty of helpful people here, though some have posted the same type of help so often they get tired of typing it again. Others, prefer to help once you are in-game with them. Then there are the jerks and trolls, they just come on to spout shtako and TRY to kill the game.

Welcome back.
See you in Paradise.
