What if Trion managed to fix the problems present with Defiance in your eyes? They've got the budget and experience to do so. I've no issue with the game at all, just putting that out there.

Bugs are within the realm of "fix." Basic design potholes/craters their veterans missed with the game in the box seem increasingly unlikely to hope for a "fix."Quote:

Thus, the game is an embarassment as a launch title for Trion after Rift. No matter what they manage to do with it after launch.
I agree it`s way to soon for final judgement, but surprisingly the game feels very healthy to me, despite all the negativity here.
Somehow people seem to care about the game, even those who just hate on it. The forum is really busy, especially for a game released a month ago. E.g. the Neverwinter forum looks like a desert in comparison.
Also there still seem to be a lot of people playing Defiance, I played in the early morning hours yesterday and there were a lot of others, arkfalls were the usual mass-gathering.
In the long run my hopes go to the second season of the TV show. No doubt the game release didn`t work so well, at least in america, as a european player I didn`t have any of the launch issues.
Anyway, come season2 it may be a great chance for Trion to "re-launch" the game, or at least re-advertise. By then most bugs should be fixed, more content added, some player feedback implemented.
Well the good thing is player themselves will show no accountability. Defiance will be what its going to be, regardless of defence or reluctance. Heres a few things to note..when your purposely limiting your game time in an effort to not get the point were the "Trolls are complaining" the game isnt right!Quote:

When you start digging within the technical portion of the game, your way is lost. I dont need to be reminded how hard it is for Dev's to create this paltry of a game, i dont need to be reminded they released the game early to match the show release. When a player starts enabling the creative minds behind Defiance, now your changing the standards behind why we buy games.
I guess that's the beauty of an MMO. They constantly evolve and grow! You're perfectly entitled to your opinion, as is anyone else on this forum. Let's just hope it hasn't left a stigma once they do manage to please everyone :)
all valid points. just as a general question, no ill will intended, do you see season 2 as too far off as a potential revive? i speak only in regards to the next gen of consoles coming out and the amount of effort being put into an overhaul on a game for systems which may soon be dated. very interested in your opinion :)Quote:

This game is definitely a... unique... experience.
It's like waiting too long to finish your fast-food soda and the sides of the paper cup start dissolving into your beverage like a cruel tongue surgeon experimenting on your taste buds. How long do we wait? Do we just accept the unique taste of paper cola? This games development is just plain crazy.
I'd say that's only half right. They appear to have the budget, but the jury is still out on the experience.Quote:
