Lots of Defiance bashing on Steam forums

[GT3000]

You can be sure about that? The game launches in three weeks... there's 3 tiers, and they're only 15% of the way to the first tier (first notch). oO

EDIT: Also to throw out another bone on the whole FireFall vs. Defiance. I again just have to say I'd lean more towards Defiance... as it looks as though it probably runs and plays more like a true console/fast-paced action game... where, after having done beta for FireFall, at least for me, FireFall still felt like it had the "bloated coding" of a PC-based game. Nothing wrong with a PC based game mind you... but when it comes to fast-action -- fast-paced and streamline coding that's really smooth goes a lot further as far as longevity goes, at least for me. In fact, this almost seems more like what APB (Reloaded) should have played more like... just with actual PvE and more depth of storyline.

I'm willing to bet my lunch today.

Tuna fish on wheat.

You can have it in 3 weeks if I'm wrong.

agreed with previous comments. trolling actually sometimes helps the game its intended to hurt by bringing attention to it. The trollers (most likely immature little children) 1 think its cool because of the ridiculous attention that the youtube community has brought to it, and 2 underestimate the intelligence of true gamers. i wouldnt worry too much about the flamers hurting sales as the game will speak volumes for itself.

But good on you for trying

The best way you have to counter any form of forum troll is simply to speak logic, and then smile at their inane replies. And the best way to protect the steam sales from them isn't to try and fight back on forums, but rather to spread the popularity of the game through word of mouth to your friends, pals, people you play with regularly and to let it spread like a big web through the web.

Present them with the livestream videos, with the youtube videos, discuss the known FACTS about the game with them, about the TV show, get them hooked and they'll get other people hooked. Its just as simple.

Lol reminds me of my boss at work. whenever I bring up Defiance to a customer, he says oh that game is horrible just to bug me lol

Just wait until the TV show is the 'in thing' like game of thrones etc.. then they realise that there is a game in conjunction and they've missed a helluva lot. If they do swallow their words and start playing the you can own them in pvp. Then smile.

I doubt the show will be as good as GoT. But I'm sure Defiance will be a better game, than that terrible GoT game.

No, the best way to defeat a troll is to not FEED THE TROLL. If only trolls responded to trolls it would be an amusing spectator sport.

LOL, I think you just stumbled on to a genius idea. Maybe somebody needs to make a multi-tier game called "Troll Battles" or "Troll Wars", perhaps even "Troll Control"... let the trolls PvP each other in combat and in conversation... while the rest of us sit in the stands/spectatorship placing bets and laughing our arses off!
