The game has been out for 6 days...... I have played for hours and only been interrupted twice by server downtime for a total of 1:15. Things happen when you dump THOUSANDS of people into a game that you can't expect when testing. Now if this goes on and on for months that'll be a different story. For now I'm fine with it. Also read the chat box once in awhile they do announce it now with a chat message.Quote:

Guess what: You can have the game released at the speed of QQ, or you can have a finished product with no bugs. You can't have both.
lol, umm a car with flaws can kill you? sheesh, down time wont...duhQuote:

Thx for update. At least it seems to be running a bit better the last 2 -3 days, and not as much lag.
Heh, I made so much money summoning people to the starter cities to train. "Hey buddy, you got some levels there, need a train, I'll summon you for a thousand gold."Quote:

So yeah, Defiance, is a pretty amazing launch when you consider it's not one platform, like GW2, but three.

This thread is off the hook. Too many dweebs getting worked up over server maintenance. By the time you're done making a grilled cheese, eating the damn thing and washing it down with milk the servers will be up and running again. <3 Relax
Improper testing is not an excuse. Better testing leads to better at launch games period. This is not quality work even if you think it is fun it's not quality. All I'm saying is we need better quality from our game makers or we will be the ones suffering in the long run. Might not be today or next week but in the future if they are allowed to produce crap it really lowers the bar of our expectations and requirements. Stop being a sheep and think fo yourself.Quote:

Anyone who has gone through the luclin update, will never complain about server issues.
were like the soldiers in the battle of defiance, we keep quiet and calm and never talk about it.
It's principle not ligitimacy.Quote:

and anyone pissy about the downtime just go kill 45min finding arkcodes or looking up how to properly do arkfalls and not shoot the little hellbugs.
testing= 10,000 to 50,000 peopleQuote:

Honestly, I've got a gripe with you.Quote:

Games will have their flaws. No game is 100%. Ever. Period. End of story.
I'm just enjoying the time watching Nerd Central 2013 QQ over the down time. 5 more min left!Quote:

Why does everyone bring up a car to compare a $60 game to? In 2006 I bought a brand new Ford Explorer, drove it off the lot with 8 miles on it. 2 weeks later, the seal for the sun roof was leaking, so I brought it back and they fixed it. In 2008, a dash light went out, so I brought it back and they fixed it. So if you really feel the necessity to compare the two, realize that they aren't that different, and stop whining. If you spend money on something and it isn't working properly... don't you WANT someone to fix it? I sure do. I just got home from work, logged on, got booted off 2 minutes later, big deal. I will get back on in 45 minutes.Quote:

In this games case they had to release it at the minimum by the shows air time. Early allows you to interact with main characters from the show in episode quests. They were on a time crunch plus this game is being worked on for 3 different platforms.Quote:

Honestly, if you are going to complain and expect perfection from something like this then you should never have purchased the game.
Last note its not like this is a EA game that updates for **** Trion does well with make sure things improve.
Its kinda funny that (relatively speaking) it really wasn't that long ago that it took mail 7 days to cross the U.S. and some people can't wait less than an hour to enjoy a good game.... If you absolutely can't stand the wait times here, go somewhere else. No one is forcing you to play this game.
