With all the turmoil, dropping the DLC before things die down would be a horrible decision. That being said, it would not surprise me at all if they dropped the DLC tomorrow and the game was unstable for a week.Originally Posted by CyrusKhane

My thoughts exactly. I just hope that GamersFirst doesn't get the rights to this game too. They've done **** all to improve APB since they acquired the rights to it. All they did is crow bar in a pay to win microtransaction system into the game. They're now selling individual weapons for ridiculous amounts of money. The matchmaking is still broken and the game's infested with all kinds of cheaters.
My first day playing APB some guy showed me how to get G1 creds for free.
I contacted G1 and showed them how to patch the hole. Haha

Personally I feel like the Season Pass DLC is vaporware. I mean the 1st DLC was suppost to be out just a few weeks after release, but the game was to buggy.
Now it keeps getting pushed further and further and my impression of DLC is that it is slim pickings. The game needs to be able to grab people, make them want to replay another race.....provide some variety and it doesn't. I bow my hat to Hartsman as he had has a very tough road ahead of him with this game.

While I cannot even remotely see the possibility of Defiance being overhauled into an MMORPG, I've always felt the game missed the boat by being an MMOTPS.Well, Hartsman is now Trion Worlds' CEO. Very Interesting. That news certainly turned my head, even after bidding a bittersweet farewell to Defiance for now.
These questions immediately come to my mind: Does he have any experience with MMO shooters? And, even if not, is it possible that he'll be bold enough to make Defiance a MMORPS as funding permits anyways?Frankly, I certainly hope so.
I know that only time will tell. But I hope that he shakes things up at Trion with unexpected good things.
The Defiance setting and lore are very interesting. Hell, my tabletop group and I plan to start a new d6 or Savage Worlds game in October using the Defiance setting. The lore, politics, racial/cultural tensions, and characters (even new ones in the Bay area) would have fit so much better in an MMORPG. The Lore could have been better explored and revealed through quests/missions, too, as opposed to having to do it through lackluster data recorders.
They could have kept the action firearm combat using a technique similar to the free targeting combat of Neverwinter, even.
eeeeee I don't want Trion to crumble, always quite liked them despite the stupid moves they tend to make. I just want them to get their **** together. My bet is they're banking on ArcheAge to be the big money earner...but they'll need to lose the emphasis on pvp all over evereywhere if they're hoping for that success though...my pick however is they'll screw that up and end up like AION in the West (dead because of the pvp everywhere)
I personally freaked out with tears of joy when I heard Chris Lena was replacing Nathan Richardsson
It seems that this guy does not have any influence on the development of Defiance.
