CC came out a little more than a week ago and already trial?

I wouldn't assume that SOE is loosing money. I would have reason to believe that Core Combat is less than what they expected.

I learned not to put a lot of hope into Expansions after playing Everquest for 4+ years. But, I must add, that as far as expansions go I never saw nothing like this in EQ.

But, I'm not playing EQ anymore.

ouch just got owned by hamma

Yeah, anyone that think SOE is losing money, isn't thinking very well. If SOE was losing money, you can kiss PS good bye. They'd cut their losses ASAP and that would be all she wrote.

When you get as much as you do from the basic game, of course an expansion is going to seem slight by comparison.

People would have complained if there had been no expansion. It's a lose-lose if you try to please everyone.

I personally think CC is neat, even though the caverns are still a bit confusing. I'll wait for a few more weeks before I start treating criticism as informed and well thought-out.

edit: woohoo I went to Sargeant Major with this post. I knew supporting CC would get me places. I'd like to thank all the little people who made it possible.

I plan on trying the trial too but I'm not terribly excited about the weapons, although the maelstrom is pretty nifty in VR.

I still play EQ and comparing CC to Lost Dungeons of Norrath--- trust me Lost Dungeons improved EQ by leaps and bounds and started a totally new technology and concept in MMO games (making instanced dungeons for one group only that nobody else can enter). SOE CAN do good expansions, CC just doesn't appear to be one of them.

a little bit off topic but:

Raid level players hated LDoN for the most part. If your 65 with 100+ AAs LDoN was useless. I personally liked it, but the loot available was way less than you can get farming the elemental planes

Sony can make a good Expansion.

It usually just takes people a couple month or so to get it. People bitching about CC are no different from people bitching about Planes of Power. Once people really figure it out, and use it to its full potential, people will begin to apprieciate it. I have to say, that I enjoy the cavern battles more so than the surface world. They are more fast paced and focused.

Takes time for people to embrace change.


Still waiting for the day where one Empire will domniate all 10 conts. But, whats the point? Why would they? Other than bragging rights, there is no motivation or reward. Not really suprised though. This is quintessential SoE. Leaving the original release largely unfinished before moving ahead.

Well, I don't want more areas right now. Alls I want are more weapons to use, more vehicles to use. and these game crash bugs fixed. I don't have many FPS problems, I have absolutely no ping problems, and I only occasionally get Loss %. But I hate it when your driving along, and all of a sudden, for no appearent reason, the game freezes, and then won't respond to anything you try. I have to hit the reset switch. Such a piss off in progress.
