Nothing annoys me more than shelling out good money for a game that is supposed to be complete !!

This game hasnt even been beta stress tested for server stability it has crashed 4 times today alone. That is simply not good enough for a LIVE , paid for game.

I expect that if this keeps up the free thirty days will turn into free 60 days. I signed up for LIVE game not Beta. This game is certainly atleast serverwise not ready for realise and from what i have seen content wise isnt ready for release/incomplete, With a high percentage of errors making quests incompletable. No endgame state amongst other things which include the blatant rip off of unreal tournament 2003's music. (i knew i had heard those melodies b4)

I would very much like to hear from the development team why they deserve my money for a game in this state and whether they would have paid for it knowing its current state of the code.

    It was beta stress tested.
    I mean I am no tech but....
    there was a Beta...
    it stressed out the servers...
    they crashed alot with just beta players online....

    so it WAS stress tested.
    It just was not the result one would expect for a game that goes to retail perhaps but checking out many websites you would know in advance what you were buying.
    Personally all our boxes are sitting here unopened with receipts attached ready to return if need be. Just watching and judging how much cash this is going to be worth for us.

    BUT by tomorrow everything will be fine, right assbo..er..fanboys?

    If the beta stress test IS SUCCESSFUL then release the game otherwise fix the problems before it makes the game an epic failure. You need only look at vanguard and how long that lasted.

    Other epic failure games because they had nothing to do .. ages of conan... warhammer online couldnt hold the gamers past the first month because they didnt offer anything more..
    The first month you may get people to bu the game because its "startrek" after that it has to sink or swim on content stability and its merits..

    With more than 20 MMO's on the market players have plenty of options to leave EVE onlien for example is I am told is a very good example of a space MMO.
