    At this point i'm wondering if he managed to say the game's name by searching on google, or was it whispered to him by some old AO coder.

    Pssst, Joel, the 3rd game is Anarchy Online.. don't forget

    I'm beginning to think that the negative posters on this forum actually want Anarchy Online to die. Do you really think that all this moaning actually provides the Funcom team with motivation to continue developing? I applaud the fact that they have been able to push forward and make progress at all against the raging tide of naysayers.

    I'm sure that every single subscriber here wants the game to live a long life. That's one of the strongest motives to keep paying this outrageous subscription
    All the whining is meant to show Funcom we're not happy with the state of things and we damn well deserve some attention.

    March is nearly over, not expecting any update at this point. Is it strange to hope that I am wrong?

  7. #347
    I would guess the next update will be the first week of April, just hope its not a april fools one.

    Well, the last 2 were almost the last day of the month.

    Reading those interviews makes it clear to me that he has no idea what he will do with AO, has no concrete plan of action of his own, has not a clue about what AO really is, has no real heart in progressing AO in the way it should be progressed. I theorize that his way of doing things will lead AO in to a theme park instance mmo and further take the MMO out of AO, instance solo quest/missioning for gear and xp. It sounds like he has to deal with AO just because its his job now and he wont take it seriously as the others.

    It is a poor move to have FC have one guy as lead producer for three games when he isn't qualified and experienced on all three. In general, it is a poor move to have a producer on three MMOs because of the vast differences in each and the amount of time/work needed to truly understand each is impossible in an allotted time. In my opinion it takes at least a year to play an MMO regularly to truly understand most of what the game is and has to offer, that kind of time one simply doesn't have when in a position like this.

    How much creative design will be his own and not ripped off with meetings from the staff? How much damage will he do to the game because he has no understanding of it? Is he just a yes-man and a pawn for the higher ups to make the games more profitable? Is he just there to approve the ideas and work the staff are and will work on?

    @monthly updates: nobody has committed to doing these anymore, so don't look for any kind of schedule. Joel said he'll blog some but he didn't specify when or where. See post #3 of this thread for his only communication with this community.

    What?
    Its not the paying customers job to motivate them to do theirs.

    And since it appears they don't even come to the forums (well, except for the mods and occassional response about a downtime) what difference does it make to them doing their job if we bitch and moan on the fourms?

    Apathy is going to be their death signal...when no one actually posts anything.

    My favorite part of the interview is "but I think the most important thing is having an open dialog with them" when they hardly ever communicate with us.

    I like "Hopefully AO will get some love as well" from here. I'm sure that bodes well for the game.

    Don't say that! He did some really bad stuff w AO which we suffer from now.

    • Messed up start-experience/remove sci-fi beginning.
    • Killed WA-pvp which made starter-city for one of the sides a ghostcity.
