Defiance is dead to me now!

[dominad]

I knew it was going to come down as it has today(actually its been more interesting than some what anticipated and showing me there is more and much worse to come.

As for humpty dumpty, such would imply Defiance was at one point a whole and healthy egg of a fellow.

I like to think this was more or less along the lines of a 5th grade science project, never turned in that received a failing grade, that your mother opens the tupperware container of it 4+ months later and has to be rushed to the hospital by men in hazmat suits.

Alas no whimsical nursery rhymes that fit that.

Just wait Texas, then the rest of the marketing team (who need's pr when you do not plan to deliver on further content), end of year approaching new gen good excuse to close servers and state you are developing for nee consoles and cutting costs to deliver ont hat great content from last year.

I thin you should keep koolaid behind the bar for the forum member who drink it heavily. They will buy such large amounts and with so little thought some of them it could match the disappointed beer sales.

The problem with Defiance is GREED. The "top men" - meaning the Trion CEO/Owner/Board of Directors or whatever greed-fueled body is the party responsible for not FUNDING the game, not hiring enough help, not purchasing quality or enough servers, and living in some kind of cash cow fantasy land. The good news, for me, is that this person or persons will eventually lose it all. Clearly, Trion is among the worst-managed companies ever and can't last. Way to run it into the ground, guys.

I would but I think Indra started snorting the powder kegs of it in back the other day. I think the purple smudges around the nose was a dead give away. :P

Gonna be very blunt. Greed was/is secondary to the arrogance that I believe led to much of this and to a certain level still. That and the tambourine jangling mantras of positivity they try to pipe through the ventilation and sound systems there :P

If you've had any experience with ANY MMO type game, you'd know that it's probably best to just not touch the game when a bit content update comes out. There's usually a lot of problems that show up.
This happens even with big MMOs like WoW. It's just the fun of programming.

YOU try and go through four million lines of basic to make sure there's no errors and something doesn't horribly go wrong like Evil Lincoln or Evil Atilla the Hun show up in your space canoe!

Theres the problem, defiance is coded in basic? lol.

[Sanguinesun]

Theres the problem, defiance is coded in apple basic? lol.

Fixed that for you :P

But more seriously though, some glassdoor reviews by former employers at the San Diego branch spoke to the problems of coding on an engine just not meant for this type of game and the ignoring of that by middle/upper management.

I assumed they were using:

const int (* volatile bar)[64]
