Physics Physics Physics .... They have the physics built into the damn graphics cards so its easier to program! Why do they insist on using physics from another universe or planet? ... Do they hate earth so much? When I roll a car over, I expect gravity to continue to affect it even when its on its side. Its not supposed to mysteriously stop on its side because the game likes that sort of thing.
AI Intelligence. The entire city is full of blind and deaf pedestrians. Well I guess that explains why they stuck around in a city that is essentially in total anarchy.
Too many points were completely ignored. If they'd wanted to save the game. They should have told the accountants to shut up so they can release the game when it was finished properly.
And play balancing ... there was none. Griefer's paradise would be the best description.
Overall a great example of how NOT to do things.
Oh and EA ... saying "We told you so" ... doesn't help anyone. Including yourself.

Here's the strategy EA, fight for the character, car, and image creator and use it in your own sandbox game. Come on, Take 2 has GTA and Red Dead, THQ has Red Faction and Saint's Row, EA has no sandbox property. Not even Activision has one since there so busy making guitar hero clones and bland shooters.
have you ever heard of an mmo on console and btw not everyone have internet on consoles all my friends dont...Chipperz said:
This game looked interesting, but then I remembered I refuse to play anything that requires me to feed it a monthly fee.
MMOs on consoles? Final Fantasy 11(? I think? can't remember the number), the new Final Fantasy MMORPG is gonna be on consoles too, and last I heard SquareEnix were pushing for PS3/360 compatible servers, Lineage 1+2, DC Universe Online, Champions was originally designed for the 360... And those are just the MMORPGs. You could also start going down the MMOFPS and even strategy games like Endwar, MAG and Kingdom Under Fire if you wanted to be really pedantic. Hell, Playstation home is technically an MMO on a console, just a really, really, really shit one.coolman9899 said:
Also, I don't know what the fact that not every console being online has to do with anything. I have a laptop that I keep offline, does that mean MMOs can't be on laptops?
Didn't cost me a penny. Some guy who really enjoys my work as a GM gave me a CD key for it for some "refer folks" event thing. I had X hours of free time to play.Echo136 said:
So quite the contrary, I don't like throwing money away so I didn't invest into it.
1. EA stop lying, not a damn member in charge of that pile of crap could see a fist flying towards his nose, let alone this obvious mistake.
2. We all know it was EA that chose how to manage it.
3. EA sucks, drove what could have been a good game into the dirt by rushing RTW
4. At the risk of repeating myself(never seems to stop me) the customization that was "worth the money" is not worth the money when you have to play through that crappy combat to get it.
