Khel, i dont see anywhere in this saying this is the trailer for E3, everything that was for E3 HAD! E3 before it, so read because you make yourself look dumb.

I think this make you look like the dumb one.

Hmm, I don't see anything wrong with the visuals. I really like that style of artwork now after playing WoW plus it looks so much better than that plasticy look a lot of games have these days.

The fact that they dropped a crap load of content only a few months before release doesn't seem to matter??!?

ok boba where does it say here that this was released for E3?

You should read this: http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm?FEATURE=2041&BHCP=1&GAME=239&PAGE=1&bhcp=1

“We’ve been down that path before and we’ve seen other companies go down the exact same path. We’re not going down that path. We’ve launched too many other MMOs and seen too many other guys go ‘it’s not quality, it’s quantity’… Bad move, especially in an RvR game.”

4 Classes (so that leaves 20 classes left)and 4 capitals were cut but I think they gave good reasons. However they weren't cut for ever, just for now. It seems like they want a good game complete game for launch and not a half done one like Hellgate.

Also Penny arcade had a comic about it:

Er, it's in the heading of both the pages linked where you can stream and watch it and in the filename of the downloadable version. No need for unpleasantries.

Sounds like you've read into the PR spin pretty well their Greazy. Personally, a company with so much 'experience' should be able to have a decent project/development plan so they don't need to drop content to make a launch. Sure, it's not the end of the world, but it is concerning.

i think if it was solely up to mythic they would have delayed. but since they have gw and ea behind them i think they were probably forced to drop some content for now so that they could get the game out this year. i just hope to god they arent stupid enough to charge for the content once its done.

After playing in the closed beta for a few months, about the only problems they going to have is gold farming spamming in a few weeks and if the server can handle the load at launch. Bugs in the game are very little and no ones going to be happy with the balance anyway, cos unless they cant 1 shot everything and everyone they are not going to be happy.

Mabye you're right, but it's not really worrying that much to me.

I agree if it's a new expansion that god help us all but chances are its going to be a (free) major update.

hey just wondering if anyone has completed downloading the beta yet? I don't wanna blow my cap out downloading 8gig, so if someone has finished downloading it, and wants to graciously burn it for me and send it over i'd be much obliged.

I'll play it, Mythic earn't my dollar with good work in DAOC.

I think the class / realm balance wasn't bad, just server population inbalances that really hurt the RVR and the fact most servers were dead our playtime. With Aussie servers and the fact everyones kinda over wow (Which was a good game), it should do ok imho.
