    EQ was my first aswell. I miss it aswell. But to clarify my point. 10 years on, I think Trion can learn from the patch/break issues and do some decent testing on the test server. Especially seeing as the servers are patched globaly at the same time and us poor old euro's come home from work and get a propper grrr on. I know our (US/EU) time zones a pretty much oposite. so how about spliting them up?

    Unfortunately, test servers still don't help catch all the bugs. Heck, I can't count the times that I've tested and retested things in IT that still broke when they went live.

    You know something I just realized? My wife's software company only grosses around 1-2 million a year, and they can afford a test server...

    Why buy a test server when customers will pay you 60$ a copy to test your software on live servers in real time, become unhappy, and rage quit after a few months!?
    /sarcasm

    Makes very little sense to anyone with half a brain and any sort of business savvy.

    The shiny moonbeams ate all my corncobs. They sliced my mother's pearly-pearls and sent the Rakk to graze on her piano-driven corpse! MY PARENTS JIGGLED AND SQUIGGLED AND I DIDN'T KILL THEM I PROMISE! They called me INSANE! No, I am not insane! I am throat-scratch! I am the pants! I... am... RAKKMAN!

    I think it would be great if they gave some ETAs, but I know why they do not. Game communities throw too many fits and complaints when it goes wrong. Goes with the gimmie gimmie attitudes and general lack of respect to others.

    The following phrase comes to mind:

    "This is why we cant have nice things."
    If they never planned on giving an ETA they never should have said they were going to in the first place, simple. Its about standing behind what you say, not what was actually said. I bought this game this afternoon, and this is my introduction to it. Sign of things to come? I hope not.

    To all the apologists.

    Stop pretending to work for Trion. No they are not going to hire you. No you will not get free "swag" from them. No they will not buy you a hooker (because let's face it, you already blew your 60$ on Defiance and now you can't afford one) because you made excuses for them, or insulted someone for being upset.

    COD is poopoo and so is your trolling effort.

    The funny thing is the whiners are usually those who have no played MMOs long enough to get it to sink in that patches cause problems no matter the title of the game.

    People like us are just used to this sorta thing happening. Patch day, means do not plan to play that day.
    Maybe if this game had a test shard or public test server I could agree with you. It doesn't so major bugs slip through which reflects poorly on the company.
    Our lives are not our own. From womb to tomb, we are bound to others. Past and present. And by each crime and every kindness, we birth our future.
