Tabula Rasa & Aion

[Livvy]

For starters we all know - or should know - the development team has changed a few times and only last couple of months we have been seeing a very responsive and good dev-team. We have all seen how fast the deployments were implemented and how fast the game improved . We even saw an influx of new players and old players returning due to those efforts .

To cut it loose at that time - just prior to the "return to earth-deployment " as well - is ludicrous . If you have been following progress you might also have noticed they have indeed started to implement PAU's .

If TR is so "triple A"..

didn't you read my post ? NCsoft themselves have repeatedly stated it was a triple A title , not the devs ,not the players . And they kept insisting it was triple A just days before shutdown decision . Aion is also triple A , btw . That implies their classifications of their games don't mean anything either .If they can so easily close one triple A title you can bet they won't hesitate to do the same to any other game of theirs if they deem it appropriate . And the reasoning behind it is lame as well . If you read the interview with NCsoft's PR-manager you're ROFL-ing . Noone believes that guy- and by that I mean noone - when he says the decision was made "very recently " .

We now know they'll give each of their titles exactly one year to "meet their expectations" , if the game doesn't accomplish that : it's killed .That includes Aion . It's apparently their new "policy" . This is the only company doing that ,totally disregarding their customers and it says a lot about their attitude towards their player-bases .

I'm not talking about developers or CR-managers , I'm referring to the upper echelons of general management .

Where is NCsoft west with their comments ? Where is Jeff Strain? Where is anyone from NCsoft general management ?
They are nowhere to be seen because they simply don't have the guts to come out and defend and discuss their decision.

Your account had to be active on 21st of November to receive the email. So if you buy an account now you won't be getting the freebies.
