Thank you FC for finally coming out and saying what many of us have suspected for a very long time now.

Some day your ship will come in, but you will be at the airport.
its not just about that month you play when it goes down. i just got back from a cupple years away. and getting the great spirit for a game back where you are realy exited to play it is awsome. you get attached to it.
so whats the point of comming back and get attached to it when you know one day in the maybe near future they are gonna rip that away?
why why waste alot of hours farming twinking when the next day its not there.
would you build a house today if you knew the bank would add 10% rents tomorrow and you would loose it?

Dude, stop basing your decisions on what random internet trolls read into a single sentence in a financial report. AO is not gonna shut down next week, next month og next year. Butthurt people have been saying for more than half a decade (!) that AO was on the verge of shutting down. Guess what? They were wrong then and they are wrong now.
So stop basing your decision on some drama queens rambling on the forum. I've seen half the people with a "cancelled my subscription" forum post in-game in the past couple of days. I guess they are not quite done with the game yet, since some of them were farming credits like there's no tomorrow.

If you read the reports back in time you'll see nothing has changed.
People are acting like it's some life-altering decision whether or not to play AO, so they endlessly fuss over the financial reports. If you search the forum you'll see that these threads have popped up for years every time a financial report is released, and you'll figure out that absolutely nothing has changed regardless of people crying wolf since 2009.

Monthly dev updates have been missing for 6 months, so no, it's not all at once, and incidentally it's also the same 6 months in which FC put out a hugely succesful survival game in Conan Exiles. I'm not here to make excuses, because it takes exactly 10-20 min for Michi to write an update once a month, but maybe, just maybe, he'll turn his attention to AO at some point now that the Steam stuff is going down.
You also phrased the post I quoted you on first as a question. So no, you did not just offer a statement. You also do not play the game by your own account, so what do you really know about what's going on with it?

Called it, was sure that this hack was going to be the last GD of AO.
All the talk is now pointless. When the servers are taken down, the skeptics will be frustrated that they were never given credit for pointing that the game was going in the wrong direction, always downwards, while the optimists who've never seen anything out of the ordinary, not even when the population of the game shrunk to 10% to what it was during their playing time, will have no one to confess their shock to.
Now we will never know what AO might've been if Funcom would've brought professional people from outside, instead of hiring whoever was the biggest kiss-ass of his time. We will never know what AO might've become if everyone exposed Silirrion for the liar he was when he published a post-processed trailer and announced that a new engine will be coming soon. We will never know what would've happened if Means, who still had some resources, actually had any balls to experiment with changes, or if he wasn't half the time of holiday. The rest were a bunch of hacks who don't deserve a mention.
We will never know how the population of the game would've been affected if SL would've become free to play. It's a good thing some of you little persons insisted, as recently as a month ago ), that an expansion from 2003 should be kept only for yourselves, you saved the game!
We will never know what would've happened if more zones were changed to 0% suppression, if more battelstation maps were introduced, if items introduced in the past 10 years still had a wide range of QLs, or if existing bosses were reused to create new encounters, just for the sake of being new, if more new items were periodically introduced, if new xp was introduced (1 research branch in 10 years), we will never know where AO would've been if it had a real game designer, not a PR bullsh*t master, as GD. Instead of the past 10 years of limbo, I would've preferred a much shorter span, if it came after a brave attempt to turn this game around.

This thread is seriously toxic. We need official answers from FC or else people is going to assume A LOT of things and spread false rumours.
