My only concern and what prevents me from pre-ordering, if this sells enough, sadly this is multiplatform game, so playerbase is divived. Im not concinved yet this game gets "healthy" population, but if it does Im sure Trion Worlds take good care of us, like they did in Rift. I bet we lots lots lots lots of content.
i hope us western guys can play with other "consolers" from the east.
The only thing that worries me at this point is how invested is SyFy in this project. SyFy cancelled Alphas, which was I show I really thought had a lot of potential. But, at the same time, there were rumors of a Warehouse 13 spinoff featuring Jamie Murray, who plays Stahma Tarr. I also saw a video from San Diego comicon, I think, where there was discussion of a season two plot line. So' I'm thinking SyFy is at least investing 26 episodes into the Defiance series.Quote:

There's also a huge possibility of crossover. Its no secret that Nolan and Irissa are in the game and crossover to the television show. There is also the chick that appears in the VBI videos and live action trailer with two other ark hunters. So, there may be a possibility those characters appear in-game and in the tv series.
As far as game play goes, I've read a lot of posts about a lack of bank system, auction system and crafting system. But, if your at the tail end of a war, do you really think there would be banks and auction houses on every corner? You can mod your weapons, but when all hell is coming to an end to you really think you could super-size your gun?
I think this game is about building a new society, so I don't really expect it to be like any shooter or moorpg I've ever played before. That's what makes me interested in it. I could care less about why its not a traditional rpg.
its always fair to be concerned about new mmos, its almost impossible for any mmo to release perfect. without somekind of killer issue.
you got to remember dev's are under the gun to get results for fat cats in suits. so its not neglect or ignorance. hell most will testify at rift's brilliance, so we know they can do it.
for me its never how it releases. its how they handle it post release.
if your still not sure by 3rd beta test (and even open beta if they have one) then i would really suggest hold fire to little while after release then see whats happening.
if you miss out on the ultimate edition it not exactly the end of the world. better to be sure then sorry.
Blasphemy! lolQuote:

I am ready to give a MMO a try for the Xbox just like I gave MobA a try for xbox. I really hope combat and a challenge or intense amount of skill go into the game.Quote:
