I love the game, I really do, but I think I'm done.
I'm afraid that I'm going to have to call it quits. I was going to finally buy the game from gamefly next week as part of my Metro: Last Light cash pile I got going since it's relatively cheap right now, but because of Trion's actions, I just can't.
Don't get me wrong, I love this game, I've supported it from day one and have proudly flamed the little whiners that pretend that they know what they're talking about, but I just can't anymore.
Trion being unable to fix the bugs which honestly seem like its a very easy server-side fix is just unbearable.
The abomination called the Defiance Store.
Me being incredibly bored with the game now that I've completed the Sniper pursuit.
I love the game, but I have literally nothing to do now. I have no reason to go for the other weapon pursuits because they don't appeal to me. Assault rifles are great, yeah, but Infectors are garbage. I only use Pump Action shotguns and sawed off shotguns because Combat Shotguns are useless imo. LMGs are just as annoying and BMGs are just a stupid idea IMO.
I don't think it needs to be mentioned that there isn't a reason to raise your Ego Level. The biggest thing you get is an extra perk. Ego Evolution VI is not interesting to me as I don't like PVP. All you people are cowards that use infectors or sawed off shotguns, and playing the same maps over and over and over until you become trusted with Echelon is just as uninteresting. And before you start flaming, yes I utilized decoy to reveal people and tried many different tactics to combat this, and frankly, it's boring
Tl;DR, I love Defiance, but I think I'm done. I'll still watch the show and enjoy it a bunch, Maybe I'll pick up the game again when there is nothing else out there or when it's dirt cheap. The mobs are fun for only so long. Add that in with one of the worst clan experiences I've ever encountered in gaming, ever, I'm ready to retire this game until they pull a Mass Effect and overhaul everything just as the fanbase is down to the hundreds.
