Terrible Experience

The kicking system in this game is the worst game mechanic ever created.
I cannot properly queue for any dungeon because the game server times out all the time.
There is a grotesque imbalance in PVP. PVP is fun however, if there are no trickster rogues.
Only two PVP maps and only one game type.
These are all game-breaking experiences and I hope the developers listen to our feedback.

FTP game from a well funded company = no excuse
If you put the work in you can get anything you want, you don't have to spend real dollars. No fairy dust, just hard work.
Of course you can. That just means you're taking a free ride on those who pay to keep the game alive. I'm not begrudging the broke people who do it, just don't pretend it's really free when it's not.
It is that bad that I have been basically forced to create a different character from the one I want to play as. I want to play as my GWF but its nearly impossible unless I endure 20-50 attempts at queuing. I ended up making a cleric just so I can actually play the dungeons. To allow the main feature of the game to continue like this would be foolish, at present it is definately a top contender for the worst game mechanic ever. You have created a great game and the simplest of things totally ruins it and is making your game a laughing stock. I know these comments may seem harsh but its my honest opinion and I know many others feel the same. Despite what some moderators on here believe all companies are open to public criticism, and yes you can remove comments if you choose to I understand that but your customers should be entitled to there say without being accused of flaming and making unfounded claims etc. There not unfounded, play your game. Its happening bad
Pvp could be so much better. I really enjoyed it at first but after around a month of playing the same 2 maps atleast 4 times a day it gets very boring. You need to do something to change it up a little. Many players just dont play it anymore, I have maybe 1 or 2 matches a day because it is fun fighting the other players but the lack of variety spoils it. The Tr one hit kill is also very annoying, my Gwf just flops to the floor in an instant but its not massively game breaking I dont think, they are very easy to kill when they have no stealth left so its not that bad
I hope this is taken on, I really enjoy playing the game when I can play. These minor changes can make a massive difference to the game. All the best
and yes I have also spent £20gbp +
LOL this game has less problems with over a month since it's release than Defiance does and that has been out for over 2 years

Lol if they have no excuse then what about all the popular mmorpg with massive budgets and backing with more bugs than neverwinter at release?
It's sad when ever you see a HR come in game and spam, "please don't kick", over and over.
Maybe you are a freeloader, but some of us have put money into it because we understand that the game creators also like to have luxuries such as food. If you enjoy a game that is "free to play" why not throw the creator a pack of biscuits to eat?
I hear your frustrations. It's frustrating for me, as well. I've really made this the point of any community-related discussions I have with the devs, who assure us that it's being worked on. So for now, let's just cross our fingers and hope this is fixed ASAP.

This is from the xbox version which isn't on module 6 yet so none of their dungeons are disabled at the moment ( none that I'm aware of anyway)
I can't completely blame PW/CRYPTIC, etc., it's the XBOX community that is abusing this feature beyond what was intended. It does however ruin the game, and if what our PC brethren have said is true, then I fear for the solution (if ever).
.02 cents given.
Get the Forums Enhancement Extension!
Don't you get it? If you HAVE TO join a guild to be able to run dungeons, then something is wrong. THAT IS THE POINT.
Yes, you can have perfect runs with guildmates and friends, we get that.. but if you're saying that you've never been kicked whilst running entirely with randoms, then I fail to believe you.
It's ok saying "join a guild, it solves everything"... that is not the point. The point is, running with randoms/PUG groups is broken because of the kick feature. It's that simple. You shouldn't have to join a guild to complete runs with randoms.
All of you assume I did not pay for anything. I have spent over $60 on the game. Everyone cries about everything. You all must lead a charmed existence if this is all you have to <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> and moan about.
Enjoy your game!
I get what you're saying, and I completely agree that they are a better experience when played with others.. the social aspect, and the 'MMO' part, I completely get it, and agree.
What I can't agree with is where you say "getting upset at the Devs because vote to kick is in the game in lieu of taking steps to make sure you aren’t a victim of it any longer is kind of crazy".
The steps you speak of are to only play with friends/guildmates (they are the only steps that would work.. right?)... in which case, they should just remove PUG groups altogether using that logic? The fact that there ARE PUG groups, and that when using that system you get booted continuously, means that that system is broken/not working as intended. You can't blame the player for not 'taking steps to avoid it', it's the devs duty to spot that the system is broken and fix it. Therein lies the problem. IF we as players are expected to take steps to avoid it, then they may just aswell remove the option to run with randoms.
Awesome points , however, when living in a bad neighborhood do you:
a) Continuously leave yourself open to attack or victimization?
b) Figure out how to survive?
We all know that the problem is one part a system conceived with the best intentions one part a community that has bastardized it into a festering wound for everyone who plays. And maybe they can take steps to improve the issue.
Maybe it should show us the classes that are already in an instance before we choose to take a shot. That would be helpful. They really should change the number of votes it take to kick , like maybe all or nothing, I know there have been plenty of times where I’ve chosen to not kick and that person still gets kicked.
I really just think if you give this game money or not you should take an active role in improving your own experience, and though this part of the game is not good at all, it’s still your time , it’s still your money , it’s still your responsibility to make sure you make the best use of both. Frankly making friends and running with people in a guild is the best way, with the current system to make sure you make the best of your personal resources.
In short, yes the system is broken, yes it should be fixed/modified/changed, but…. You get it, I think .
In this game, the bullies are the trolls that abuse the V2K system. The cops, that's PW. So I uphold my end, download a F2P game, invest my time and my money into it. But guess what happens when my experience is ruined....nothing. I gave them my money so they can eat as some have suggested, and nothing. I would be happy with a simple, "we are working on a fix, sorry guys". But no. The people who get V2K all the time do not get a fix, not even any info. But most of us has paid money if I'm judging by the forums. So what gives?
On the topic that alot of people retort with "join a guild, get friends". Really guys?!? Yes its a MMO, but that doesn't mean you should HAVE to use the buddy system to go into a dungeon. But let me ask you guys, how do you make friends in a game? Oh right, you do pugs. Its how you meet new people. So let me load one up...oh right. I'm a GWF, which is not a top desired class, and even though I usually top the boards in dps and damage taken, I still get kicked 9/10 times.
Sure, join a clan. Needing to join a clan to do basic dungeons.....!!!????????!!!!!! I should want to join a clan, not join one hastily sp I can play the games end game to just gear up for more endgame. I don't want to find a clan on forums(no offense). Anything can look good if you write it out, I'd rather pug and be invited or watch clan guys work. I hastily joined three seperate clans to try n dungeon it up, didn't like any. I have played MMOs before, and in each one I did not NEED a clan.
Also, on the "omg its F2P get over yourself" arguements. Again, really?!? This game would not survive as a subscription game. Period. I've seen other F2P games on Xbox that have the same features only better. Get real with that argument. This game has been out i think for what, 2 years?? Look at PvP. No, not rogues. There are 2 maps, and one gametype. 2 years in this games life, and two maps...............lol. The spurts of lag that leave you wondering if you will die before the game has stopped freezing is horrible.
Stevie Wonder could see that this game has so much potential, yet it seems the problems keep stacking up, we get events all week instead of fixes. No word on the issues that plague the Xbox side, none. In this day an age, leaving consumers in the dark and only talking when its event time or no patch on this maintenance is completley unacceptable. I have paid my money, quite a bit to be honest, yet I'm left wondering if the devs care, or if there will ever be a fix.
I truly don't believe that the V2K system and the chat is causing people to quit. I honestly believe its the complete lack of costumer service, the lack of acknowledging that the problems are serious, and a lack of no announcments on the fixes for them is what's causing people to leave. Especially when the community has come up with so many great ideas. But the fact is, this is an old game, as in ut may be new to console, but its lifespan is older then the Xbox one itself.
Sorry for the long post/rant. I keep coming back to this game because I love it, but at the same time, I hate it so much. Please devs, screw the events, take a break from fixes and give us, the consumers of your product, the people that keep your lights on as well as giving you steady income, the people that give your game life, tell us what's going on. These problems are serious, maybe not for everyone, but for some these problems are game breaking.
or c) move to a different neighborhood.
(which is exactly what i will do when a new/different mmo comes to xbox)
THIS is exactly the issue. X-box players are single-player instant-gratification junkies that are upset they can't play alone without their friends without occasionally being unceremoniously removed from a dungeon group. Join a guild, make some friends, invite your group to party chat once in a while... all this complaining is from people that don't understand how to play an MMORPG.
