I thought the game was supposed to be huge???

[OcelotKharn]

Before release I would watch the live streams etc and we were told the game was huge etc but having finished the story and played the pvp and coop to death I feel a little cheated because the game isnt that big at all. MMO's all share being big as standard, I however don't class Defiance as a MMO due to it lacking alot of the mechanics required for MMO's. The problem I'm having is I feel the game was falsely advertised. I love the game as it is but as we all are noticing once we get to end of the story and have played on for a while we are all suffering the boredom of the End Game. In a usual MMO we would still be grinding gear and still have plenty to do despite being at the End but for Defiance being "huge" we don't have any of that. I think someone really dropped the ball.

So you thought the game was falsely advertised? Great, thanks for your opinion.

welcome to defiance, they did a great job promoting and campaigning for the game only to fail on delivering on so many levels

is it a great game? yes... but they rushed it too fast for the launch of the show and due to that huge mistake they failed to make a game with its current setup thats gonna last...

but its ok, because there are plenty of others like me who got suckered into buying all the DLC **** upfront and all the extra beels and whistles....

kudos to trion for making me waiste a huge chunk of money, but i guess its worth the money to realise im never gonna spend **** on a trion developed game again. just gonna ride this one out for a bit then move along.

they are in the same boat for me as hammerpoint ( the ****bags who made war Z ) absolute garbage

I had to wait till the 12th on top of the above issue for Ultimate Edition

Seriously everyone here is allowed an opinion but lets not fall into petty squabbling

It's the internet, that is inevitable. It's just what happens when people get to be anonymous.

HellOnOrion srry but thats a harsh compare you make there.

Hammerpoint is garbage, but at least give Trion some more time.
Btw its not as if they have a greedy cashshop for normal stuff,its not as if one day mobs kill you from 5 feet away and the next day they do jack.
And a million other things,hey we dont die from falling off a 2 millimeter rock in Defiance.

Kk they have hackers rampant and that is crap still Hammerpoint says they have anti cheat while they dont,they have stupid fairfight.
Lets assume that Trion will be prepared to invest money in a much needed anti hackers system.

I bought warz back in october last year and found out very fast it wasnt good,it was alpha back then .
Pf if you can even call it that.In the end i got banned on the forums for speaking facts.
Played about 60 hours off the game but the bs was to much on all fronts.

Now for this, i have to say i feel crappie i bought the seasonpass for Defiance.
The main issues i have with the game are hacks(i like pvp)/no open pvp world(yet-no i mean real with flagsystem or clan vs clan 24/7),some questbugs/no advanced settings for pc(but they say its comin)/
console ui (no not a pc elitist but it argh)/loadoutselfchanges/miss toggle aimzoom for sniper
and last but not least a SF area that is just blend and bah.

I think the 50 on steam was fine for what i have done uptill now(+/-85 hours).
The additionel pay for seasonpass hmm thats a big i hope they get it togheter and i should ahve waited feeling.

All in all Defiance is mills ahead off warz and Trion has shown they can make a good game(Rift).
So lets just relax and hope it works out.

Sorta agree with the point.. and on that point the question I keep wondering is...

What did the in-hour QA think of the game?

Every game gets in house testers who sit with the game for countless hours, playing it, finding bugs. Which usually means all the stuff you see broken in the game is already known about for weeks prior. The gameplay complaints are known months prior.

So, what were their impressions of the game? What did they recommend? And did anybody listen?

[Bigtk]

You're cool, also you have been reported.

My biggest disappointment was the No Cross Platform play!!!! I say give pc users dx11 since M$ does not want to go into cross platform and lose revenue so we should get direct x11 upgrade since there will never be cross platform but kudos to Trion to design it cross platform. I feel like this game will just keep getting better guys just hold on, I am sure we will see lots more main and side missions! any one else rooting for DX11 not this 5year old dx9c!!!! I though it was all about graphics since I was a kid no people call wii and xbox360 graphics acceptable in this new generation??? whatever consoles will never reach the next GEN title since its old gen pc material powering them. but my main point is this game has the same executable on all platform to make it cross platform that will never happen so I hope to see graphical upgrade for pc users at least since it does not need to run on every platform since they are on separate servers anyways.
