erro Mythic,
Seeing as asking GoA anything is like asking a particularly thick log the meaning of life, i thought i would turn my query to you guys, in the hope of a sensible, intelligent answer.
Months ago it was mentioned that an expansion for the RvR, or End Game as some people refer to it, was in the pipes, then it was overshadowed by SI's release. For some time now, the entire European DAoC community has been asking for more information on this, as many are starting to find the "l33t" ganking squads which dominate the frontiers a bit dull, and many are leaving the game in favor of a fresher challenge.
We all hoped and prayed that we would see some form of information regarding this after SI went live, but nothing came. Then we hear that Foundations and ToA are both now priority. With Foundations now out in the US and ToA only days away (yes, we know we'll have to wait months for that embarresment called GoA to get their thumbs from their arses and sort the european release out, but hey, we're used to it now) is there ANY news on this RvR expansion, or are you to continue releasing these new add-ons to tempt new blood, at the sacrifice of the dedicated few still here after 2 years of playing?
I don't know how the feelings run on the US side, as IGN's forums have become more of a whine-fest than Barrysworld now, and are barely worth reading, but even just a reassurance that this much begged for bolt-on is still in development would be nice.
Sadly, GoA are a thorough and total embaresment to both this license and to Mythic Entertainment - Rightnow is a shambles, with the only quick replies coming from the lamest questions, and more often than not are in pigeon english and don't actually answer the question.
I fear that with GoA you have a company far more interested in it's own personal gain and profit, rather than the interests of either it's customers, or you, the owners of this game. To add to that, and i would imagine this is more percieved than actual, there is a strong feeling of bias towards the German and French development of the game - Germans having 5 servers, French having 4 and us English speaking folk are left with 2 - this gives us no opportunity of having access to all three realms, unless we participate on the PvP server, which is dying on its feet attracting less than 500 people most of the time.
Please don't just send me a standard reply, telling me to direct my queries to Rightnow, as common sense should tell you how i feel about the service offered by "Shitenow" (as it has become affectionately termed in my house) - i just want a sensible, informative reply, and for someone to perhaps understand that the European community is far from happy with the service we are offered. I love the game, i love the community, i love the interface, but it's all spoilt by the ineptness of GoA
Yours
AC
