I rarely come across games that make me want my money back within the first dozen hours I spend playing it...yours made me want it back in less than 6. This mess needs a massive amount of work before I'll be willing to spend any more money on it in the future. I don't know if your hands were tied by impatient publishers pushing to meet a deadline, or if you just didn't know what you were doing, or what you were getting yourselves into, but either way, you have fumbled this ball so badly its painful to think about it. I am the Angry Canadian Asshole, and I will be watching, playing, and hoping in the Man Emperor's name that you are listening to your players.
Well things are indeed being worked on. I hope you stay. Trust me, I rage at the game and it's bugs, errors and exploit constantly but damn it's fun.
That's a lot of hope in the current buggy broken times I just hope the dam game won't shut down in the next 5 years
The closest I've gotten to having fun so far in this game has come only after forcing myself through a few hours of playing until something actually enjoyable happened, and even then it was based entirely on pure chance from the looks of it, and last I checked, I was playing a video game, not pulling a crank on a slot machine.
The problem that EC is facing game is three fold, what you described, what was promised and what we got, and balancing.
I'll never buy a game with Bandi-Namco on it again... they go in the 'never touch' box with EA and Ubisoft games... Though technically I spent my money before those assholes were chosen.
