Perhaps the real reason behind the switch to quarterly drops?

And while you rage, McDonald's makes billions and Carbine loses 20% of their workforce. Like it nor not, this is Planet Earth. You can't run a business that doesn't appeal to enough people to generate a profit, just like you can't suddenly wish gravity to operate in the other direction. I suggest you use your brain rather than raging against the universe because it doesn't conform to your wishes. In any case, it's not the revolutionary part of the game that drives people away.

Can we please put the whole TORtanic thing to rest? That being said, I wish everyone well.

I wish the employees who were laid of luck in finding a new job and getting on their feet, regardless of what people think of game good or bad, this is people's livelihood at stake:(

Fair enough. I respect that. (even though I am not trying to make this about me or the game). I wish them the best. Actions speak louder than words. Support them by subbing. Buy copies of the game and hand them out. Say nice things about the game.

im going to rewrite this so it doesnt get deleted this is the reason people left, people like this guy, the game had problems but overall was good i still play but calling people stupid, dumb, carebears, go back to wow get outor get good ect ect made people leave and now that people left, you call them stupid? and suggest they should pay to support your hardcore dreams when its not working out without them? im absolutly saddened by this news, but crap like this makes me glad the whole hardcore MMO thing is failing maybe the white knight elitist fan boys who talk down to everyone around them will realize they arent king anymore -edit of edit, Carbine, im sorry for the hell you are going through, i wish you all the best, but speaking for myself and all the friends i had that left, it was a certain part of the community that drove them off, not the game itself, GL all

Exactly, those in leadership, the ones that gave the go for all the systems that brought Wildstar down (Looking at you poor gear itemization, rating system, pvp gear disparity, rune rolls, name reservation system etc) get to keep their jobs

Except swtor has been the second highest played MMO in the market for the month of October besides "The Beast"... you can't even find numbers for WildStar because they're so low.

Last week on an article they mentioned couple hundred thousands subs. Tell me exactly what's the difference between "paying sub" and "credd sub"? Oh yeah, credd subs actually PAY MORE than "paying subs" since credds are more expensive than monthly payments... Even if the person using the credd didn't pay any real money for it, someone always did. I find it hilarious when people get these wild delusions that credd subs are somehow "free" and bring no money to the company. Just try to keep it in mind, SOMEONE ALWAYS PAYS FOR THE CREDD. They don't just appear out of thin air into the credd exchange.

I really don't get why people complain about crafting RNG, but that is Off Topic. Housing doesn't need to rely on crafting tbh, and dailies, GASP!, something to do beside dungeon grinds/item farms! Really, I get the idea of daily grinding is boring(I rarely do them anymore), but *cupcake* people are so harsh on them that it is a sin against nature.

Reductions in personnel are parts of a company's strategy for improving its position. NCSoft said their position, not Carbine's position. Were people assuming that the relationship between NCSoft and CS or the relationship between CS and its employees was one of charity?

The argument: "There is nothing beside crafting,housing,and dailies that doesn't require a large group.

Expeditions/ship hands are similar to adventures/dungeons but they do NOT require large group. Silver runs/gold runs(assuming vet here) are harder than normal dungeons, hence a challenge so I would put this on borderline on being same category. Role-play is probably larger than what you think and with the lore. Are we assuming got both from Dominion and Exile side?

He covered this point well. At least stay on topic

I do agree with this though, which is where most of my worries are at.
