Seriously, Just let us know when?

[RANGER3BN]

Hey Dev team,

I am not going to bash you for having so many game ending glitches on day one nor am I going to go into all the missed opportunities, poor execution, and lost consumer confidence. You will have all that data soon enough and hopefully will plan and execute accordingly. All I want is a realistic expectation as to when will I be able to turn my X box 360 console on, place your product into the drive and actually be able to get past the training mission without getting a server time out message.

When I say realistic I really do mean it and since I do not see me getting a refund I have no choice but to wait. However, I do have a choice as to my next purchase and depending on how long it takes to get this title up and running I will definitely keep that in mind the next time I come across a title with your name on it. Anyway, my point here is; I just want to know when I will be able to actually play and enjoy your product...one week two weeks..etc

I have a pretty large library of game so rather than get upset and rant on and on. I rather just wait until the game is able to meet the expectations of your development and marketing departments. So, just give us a window ( give yourself some room for errors) as to when we/I will be able to play the game to the fullest. Until then I will have to shelf this game as it is not playable in its current state.

Ps: the update post while informative is not giving a warm feeling about a quick turn around. It takes a lot to crash an xbl server so at least you can add that to the resume..lol!

Agreed. I'd like to see an estimate instead of being constantly ignored.

So I guess the servers are down again because of the new patch today? As of 3:34pm est time I am getting a message that the "servers are down and please try again later". I looked on the patch notes and saw nothing noting the servers were going to be down for the XBox 360. Unless I missed something but I do not think so. It is getting to become a little absurd to not be able to play this game whenever I turn my system on. If this is a standard in MMO's I will most definitely NOT enter into this kind of gaming again as this is my first try at this. Too many things seem to go wrong with MMO's or is it just this one?

I thought it brave and about time the 360 had a proper MMO and could get past the glitches lag etc, and had pretty much constant gaming with it until this past weekend then booting began and now I can’t even get it play because the servers have been switched off. So I estimate, actually I assure you Trion I will not be purchasing another one of your products. The doubting Toms were right about Trion MMOs on the 360!

[RenegadeCEO]

Just a quick question: Do you folks realize how difficult it is to set up a massive world MMO on a console when most console server clusters are designed to host less than 100 people per game match? Trion's already posted several things about how they are trying to coax the 360's horridly designed infrastructure to handle this and yet you people complain? Go back and look @ NASA's history with trying to get into space, because Trion is essentially trying to do the same thing with putting an MMO on the 360.

If you wanna play an MMO, build or buy a freaking PC, its that simple.

an estimate is just as bad. if something happens and the estimated time can't be achieved, people will throw a tantrum

They give no ETA = Flood of complaints on forums
They give an ETA but postpone the ETA = Flood of complaints on forums

You can't get past the training mission really? You must be the only person maybe you need to switch from 56k , and it's expected of a new mmo, maybe you just never played one before, but a half hour downtime here there is nothing, and what were going through today is not a big deal either, I've seen alot worse.

what's sad is they have a server status section on the forum, but everyone goes straight to "bug report"
