    scratch that, they expected things that were not promised.

    Rofl @ expectations being too high. After the beta, I'm pretty sure no one with any sense thought this game was going to be a blockbuster with hundreds of thousands of players and massive content. However, I do believe people expected the full release to not be plagued with the exact same beta bugs (massive audio drops, nosediving framerate, chat a broken mess) extremely poor visuals that look no different from the beta and to not be fighting boss-type mobs with loot turned off. People up here barked over and over about this "new build", yet this $60 purchase seems damn near identical to the free beta..

Glad I didn't pay the full $60 for it. #ThankGodforGamestopTradeins
    I'll correct you on this once, real quick, Xbox Fubar'd this up not Trion Xbox was like here have a server 5, PS3 was like here have a server 7, Xbox can't play MMO's that's why Dust 514 isn't on it, Sorry to burst your bubble but Xbox just dosn't have the power.

    I don't belong to the PC master race, so I am not an expert on MMO's.

    I'm an Xbox guy, so the only MMO I have ever even atempted was Star Wars Galaxies years ago, on a shotty PC. I played that for two weeks, and wasn't going to pay $15 a month to play a game.

    But not ever having played an MMO extensively, I am very satisfied with what I played today.

    It's exactly what the XBOX was lacking and needed. It's the first attempt that at least I know of, of an MMO on the XBOX, and I think so far it has done a great job.

    I can jump into the world and explore all I want, join up with a group or roam on my own. It's excellent, and I'm certain, will only get better.

    My only gripe is that I feel a bit ripped off. Deluxe edition and season pass comes to a fair bit of monies, and now I realize I am already nearing the end of the major questline and what I see of the map is all there is currently?

    I could have sworn that I read "current beta map is two out of fifteen territories" or something very similar. And it turned out to be about half?

    As a quick example, just comparing it to the size of gw2 (which was cheaper), I guess I expected "more" and feel a bit silly for it.

    I can appreciate your thoughts on the game OP. For me I didn't come into this expecting a huge grind (loot or otherwise) mmo. I wanted a shooter that runs smoothly and has a some what persistent world. I'm enjoying my time in Defiance immensely.

    I tried warframe but the space ninja thing was weird, I hate when I go to play a shooter and instead find everyone using a sword. The character designs in particular didn't appeal to me. The pacing was too fast imho. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

    You hit the nail on the head.

    Defiance is a console game released on the PC, not a PC game released on the consoles. Get over yourself FFS. What did you expect?

    i agree its a bit ruff and not at a great length will i get 100 hours out of it after doing all missions and pvp mash yes which makes me think my money is worth it as i could of spent 40 pound taking me and my partner n the kids to the cinema so all in all it is a saisfying game wouldnt call it a mmorpg though its a mmo but just a shooter really like any other apart from you can sometimes bump into someone from around the world lol
