I'm not happy, but game is ok. Just found out "Deluxe" is Trion's version of "crap" (talking about costume color)

I wish I kept my 60 bucks! I am really unhappy with the current state of the game!
This game should never have been released in it's current state. It's far from ready!
I also don't understand why they had to rush it out on 2nd of April and not delayed it until end next week, couple days before TV Show launch?
Then they had at least two more weeks to iron out some of the major issues that should not be in a live game! Like a not working chat system, No loot from Major events (Arkfalls), etc, etc.
Even though I have not purchased the game yet, Id like to point out two things:
1. If anyone remembers WoW's release -- early Vanilla, it was insanely buggy and a pretty poor launch. Granted, the MMO market is more diluted and expectations have thus changed over the last 8+ years, but WoW did OK after a terrible launch.
2. Every MMO release is not without problems. I cannot think of one. Patience. The most successful to date is GW2 who had a HUGE botting problem early on which destroyed the market for precursors and whatnot.
This is not uncommon and is not a game killer. Trion has a good track record.
The deadline was so that the show characters could be involved in the game and tell the story prior to them leaving for Defiance so they really couldn't use those two weeks.
Pretty much. I've tried that argument before, but she just thinks I'm replacing her with gaming. It really got a lot worse now that our son's getting a little older and is actually running around the house now.

And I'm completely satisfied with my game. I've had no issues at all and am thoroughly enjoying it.
Completely worth my $60.
You can't compare today's market with the time WoW launched!
WoW's launch was bad, due to overwhelming sales numbers and having not enough servers to keep up with demand!
So they litterly suddenly had to build New data centers, order huge amounts of New servers... something that cannot be done overnight.
So they had to work with what they had at that time and buy servers and bandwith from various datacenters to fullfill the demand, which also took time.... hence why they stopped sales of WoW for several weeks!
Completely different and much more understandable situation.
Today the MMO market is completely saturated and First day(s) impressions are KEY!
If they are bad! Which they are right now! The game will not recover and be doomed into niche! People will leave and not come back anymore. Again due to the fully saturated MMO market of today.
TRION botched it up big time with this game! A difference of night and day compared to how they handled launch of RIFT... which went smooth as hell!
Beating a dead horse but since there is no required monthly fee to play
Yes I'm happy with the purchase which is a steal at $60
I knew the frame rate and GFX would suck on the xbox, but I had to get it to play with my XBL friends but I my end up getting the PC version also.
I like the game, no it's not the best Shooter in the world or a normal MMO but a mix of both. I play PLanetside 2 and thats very cool but has its issues also and I have beta tested Firefall and that isn't grate. I'll stick with this, and ride it out, Trion will make this work.
