This thread is seriously still going??
yeah BUT
Funcom was synonymous with launch failure and launch issues but Trion has now accomplished the impossible by having a worse launch than Funcom ever did. Sad for Trion but funcom people are probably cheering "Yayyyy we are no longer at the bottom after so many years being synonymous with horrid launch quality products"
"just came out" only goes so far when there is historical precedence for good and horrid launch products
You cant even slightly be serious. This game didnt launch even close to as bad as Funcom's legendary ones. Anarchy Online launched so badly thousands of people were trapped in in a small area with each other and unable to play. Conan's launch was nearly as bad. This game launched fully playable with a few buggy bits. Not even slightly comparable. TSW did have a relatively smooth launch by Funcom standards, but this one still ran better out of the gate. (Unless you were on X-Box, but Funcom never did a release on that platform)
Oh my bad, I forgot games only last for 6 months after launch to get out all dlc possible before the next in the series is released. I should have known this from MW. My mistake. And since it isn't the first in the genre, there should be enough evidence to suggest that 2 weeks after launch is likely not the time to freak out about an MMO being a failure due to lack of content. Tho I get a kick out of the claim they didn't test the game before launch. Trion isn't Gearbox, and Defiance isn't Aliens Colonial: Marines. Save the "you didn't test the game" chat for their forums.

Games with little reason to keep people playing dont last 6 months though, doesnt matter when the next launch is.
