    unless you have been told something the rest of us have not, and are keeping it to yourself and only alluding to that something, then the rest of us can only assume that everything is on schedule, or that testing found piles of bugs. but, we don't know, its only assumptions. if the devs are going with the fall back date of next week like you are alluding to, then they should at least tell us "hey, sorry guys, someone broke test server. patch will be next week."

    Why yes I am a fan of Funcom, so nice of you to notice. One would think that, with you being here on their forums, that you'd be a fan of Funcom too. Or perhaps you're just a nomadic troll wandering the interwebz in search of a place to put in a witty comment or two?

    What's wrong with being a fan? Beyond that it seems people want others to hate Funcom's guts because of the atrocities they force us to witness...

    OK, please do retort with how awful AO is, how long the graphics engine is delayed and how your expectations aren't being met .... while you continue to pay and play.

    I just thought I'd point out the rampant hypocrisy you two are demonstrating, simply to try and beat me in a forum duel. Go ahead, try again, I'll be here, ready to prove you wrong. Again.

    Well if you dont play then you have no right to comment about the game. There is such a thing as constructive critisisum and the ravings of a troll who thinks FC owes you anything. You dont like the game, fine, you've said your piece now shut up. Id rather see people post constructive ideas that FC can actually use than someone that has no consept of game development whining hes not getting what he wants.

    Means and his group of people have done more and better things for this game than anyone else in the past.
    I dont care how long it takes them to get the game engine out, nor the re-balance. As long as they consistantly strive to make the game better and add new content im happy. Which they have. Means has always strived to have new content released every couple of months. Past GD were lucky to get anything out once a year.
    I applaud what Means has managed to do to this game with as few people that FC has allowed him to use and i look forward to seeing the new shinies, even if it takes another year.

    And there's still plenty of time to get it out this week, or for the fall back of next week before Halloween, no sense stressing over it, it'll be done when it's done and on live when it's ready. Complaining that it's not done yet when they haven't even reached the first of the two deadlines Means posted seems a bit pointless to me is all, that was all.

    As I said before, still well over a week to go till Halloween, I see no reason why they wouldn't be able to meet that deadline.

    There are 3 quotes there from you. You may want to get your eyes checked. It will help you in your epic quest to not look like a fool.

    I don't play because there's nothing to do ingame. I've done literally everything this game has to offer. I've been here since november 2001, so I've had plenty of time to do everything. Now, I play another game while waiting for changes to be made to this game.

    Thanks for letting me know that I don't like the game, though. I was having trouble making up my mind about that. Could you happen to tell me how I feel about everything else in the world, too?

    Yes I noticed that, however anything pertaining to your (false) accusation of my being a hypocrite was not contained in those quotes thus you were quoting someone else being a hypocrite but still attempting to apply the label (of being a hypocrite) to me.

    I'll try not to make such logical conclusions without detailed explanation in the future, don't wanna confuse you to much.

    Omfg this got out of hand haha! Btw i dont like hamburgers!

    Edit: Just one small note: I DO think this guys working on AO are a wonderfull team, but unlike you, instead of more content, i would like to see something that can shift the pace of the game, and bring some old players i miss and new blood the game so desperatly needs.

    Edit2: There is literaly NOTHING you can quote or respond to in this message, i dare you not to!

    I realize this is tough to comprehend, but when you publicly agree with someone, that means that people see you as having the same viewpoint on that particular issue.

    Obtena and I were arguing the validity of comparing AO to any other game. You agreed that doing so was ridiculous, but previously in this thread, lamented the fact that we have no benchmark to know what to expect.

    So, hypocrisy revealed. Feel free to take some time off, learn how to not look like a moron. Whatever you need to do. Don't worry, I may not pay for AO, but my account is currently paid, so I'll be here to prove you wrong next time. Yet again.

  12. #172
    OH you don't pay or play? Good, then I'm done talking to you. Too bad you didn't tell me sooner. You have no place here.

    Right.. so because I agree with someone on one point I must; at all times, for the entirety of the debate, agree with them on everything? If Obtena says s/he likes cherry pie and I don't I must now say that I do anyway because I agreed with him/her previously?

    You're grasping at straws in some inane attempt to not admit that you're wrong. I know, it's tough, nobody likes the idea that they may have said something that was untruthful but acting like everyone else around you is stupid instead of admitting your mistake only makes it worse. You aren't fooling anyone but yourself.

    Hm, funny.
    1: I've both paid and played considerably longer than you have. Just because I'm taking a break doesn't make you some god, nor does it make you correct. Nice to know that you don't have an actual argument here and must fall back on this excuse though.

    2: You've never talked to me. You've only ever talked at me. There is a difference, which you will now ignore to talk at me some more.

    3: You have no right to tell me if I have a place here or not. That's Funcom's call. I know the professional title under your name has gone to your head, but maybe you should stop being such an arrogant jackass, I guarantee it will help you in your future endeavors.

    Maybe you should go reread what you're actually arguing about, because you seem to have lost sight of it. I'll give you a hint: the part you agreed with, and the part we're now arguing? They're not different. You agreed with someone, I called you out on it, now you're trying to argue that you never agreed with it in the first place. My, you're quite excellent at this whole being intelligent thing, aren't you?

    Where did I agree with Obtena that AO is comparable to EU etc?

    Show me. Seeing as that is your only point of contestation and so called proof to insult me lets see what you feel is me agreeing with him/her on that specific point.

    I'm sorry, but if you don't feel the need to pay attention to what you say, then I don't feel the need to remind you every time you forget (every other post).
