If it really sucks, then yeah, but many a flawed game has been enjoyed due to people playing with their community *cough* Planetside *cough*

I feel sorry for the folks who have to moderate this shitstorm.

In two days one thread has created over 1% of the total amount of posts across 1,897 total threads since 2009, not even counting the amount of posts that have probably been removed.

I am curious to know if any of our VIP's have read every page.

Your calculations are too short-sighted.

666 people per faction per continent.

10 continents.

666 * 3 factions = 1998 people per continent.

1998 people * 10 continents = 19,980 people per server cluster.

My Outfit celebrates it 10th anniversary this year, we have some Americans, Australians and russians. The outfit plays a vast array of games but has a core leadership group based out of planetside. We have 248members and it is likely that all would have an interest in planetside 2 but we are a very cautious bunch and wont like leaving any members out.

Hasn't been to bad overall.

I think moderating the various official forum threads is a harder job.

We have less rules around here.

If anything, I'd feel sorry for the people who are trying to get SOE to un-region lock the servers but are going to get stonewalled. And then after that, they're going to have to face the crowd and tell them that they failed to change SOE's mind on the subject.

I wonder if there is a single person at SOE reading any of this and thinking, "Hm. Well. This may be a problem."

Yes I have. Not only is it part of my job, but it's important to ensure we have a full view of the feedback provided.

Even if they were progressing well, don't ya think that Smed would want to be the one to say so?
Would be stepping on some pretty important toes to beat him to the punch.

Unfortunately I cannot comment more than we already have. These decisions are made at a very high level and affect all of our products. All I can do is reiterate what has already been stated. We are listening and in discussions with Prosieben over our products to explore options.

We will continue to ask for everyone's patience and constructive feedback.
