Nightmares of a PC gamer

In the mean time, Skyrim is broken on the PS3 :lol:

Yeah it's not like console games have any glitches as well. The Javelin glitch on Modern Warfare 2, PS3 Skyrim framerate, Red Dead Redemption Manimals glitch, Two Arbiters glitch, Twilight Princess Cannon Room glitch. They never happened! :roll:

The only console I've seen glitch-free is the Wii. We tend to go to parties at friends' houses a lot because of birthdays and other occasions. I've seen a few glitches with Halo reach and Forza 3(?) where the textures simply weren't there. I've seen similar stuff on PCs back in the older days when RAM/video RAM simply ran out.

MMO's always have errors.

This.

Oh, and console have problems, glitches, errors, etc... too. My PS3 couldn't even finish playing Resistance 3 because it kept getting stuck at a black screen when loading after cut scenes. Skyrim on my PS3 had quite a few issues too. Saints Row: The Third was a hot mess for glitches and froze a lot.

At least I can fix problems in my PC games.

I agree. Paying for a game should be enough. Paying to play something you paid for is ludicrous.

Yeah, paying to use something you already bought is crazy. That's why I totally don't pay car insurance or even bother putting gas in my car. Stupid.

A car is a neccesity depending where you live. Gaming is a luxury. Your post is rated CS for Cool Story.

That's not the fault of the PC per se. Mmos are the most costly and complex games to build. They're not just a simple 10 hours running in a corridor with simple mechanics type of games. Expecting a bug free mmo at release is just stupid.

The forums dont represent the whole population of the game. HOw many times do you see a thanking developers for making a game? Never, cause they are off playing and enjoying the game. Iantheone

This. /thread

Moreover, anyone buying an MMO at launch should know to expect some rough edges. Or you can wait for a couple of months after release to join in. If you don't, tough, I have no compassion whatsoever.

Better to have a SWTOR that is somewhat glitchy and will get patched up than no SWTOR at all :Pferret-gamer

[QUOTE="ferret-gamer"]Better to have a SWTOR that is somewhat glitchy and will get patched up than no SWTOR at all :PpolFdrawykS

Well don't. I don't either, because I don't give a damn about MMOs. But I don't need to talk crap about them, and complain about how glitchy they are.

You can on the one hand not appreciate what they offer, and on the other stay objective and admit that those games are infinitely more complex, and have a huge scale compared with ordinary games.

And that's just not MMOs; look at a big game like Skyrim, it offers infinitely more content than most games, but as a consequence it takes a while to iron out the glitches and bugs. Well, at least on PC.. On console you get stuck with those problems most of the time :lol:

[QUOTE="Nanomage"][QUOTE="percech"] No, they are not the same thing. Hence why I posted that, because your response to nanomage didn't really make too much sense. I wasn't quite sure how MMOs were worse than xbox live because you don't own them, so I had to ask for clarification.

Misleading title.

Should be "Nightmares of a newly released MMO player".

So what?

WoW is 11€/month and gives you potentially 24/7 content to see, the limiting factor being your own time schedule.

If you knew anything about averages in mathematics you'd know how retarded the statement lundy quoted sounds.

Paying 50-70€ for a new game that lasts not even a handful of hours even if once every two months is still less convenient by a huge margin.

I don't pay for XBLor DLC. Never haveand never will.percech

:D Looks like we have found another lemming that is willing to lie in order to make an argument or put down other systems and games while still trying to hype something that is MS.

PSN doesn't even offer half the things XBL does...even on XBL Silver. I got sick of paying for Goldbecause I couldn't afford so I got a PS3 for certain games I care for playing online. The online play itself isn't really bad(then again I don't really play online much), but the actual service in general is a huge downgrade in comparison. Not to mention the security breach, and Sony's new terms of service is an utter joke.percech

[QUOTE="IBeVanquished"][QUOTE="percech"] What the hell? You sound so stupid. It's not even the same thing. I payed $60 to play the game, I then have to continue paying to play the game...then an expansion pack comes out...I gotta then go out and buy that, then pay monthly for that separately. You stop paying them, then you can't do anything with the game you thought you paid for therefor own. With Xbox Live...I don't need that to play my games.

At least you are paying for something. With MMOS you are paying for 24/7 on the spot tech support on stable, moderated servers, you are paying for a dedicated full time development team to correct any issues that crop up and develop new, none expansive content including seasonal content that doesnt cost any extra.

On XBOX live you pay to play games on a connection you already paid your ISP for. SUCKERS!

Just look at all these threads about PC errors on the Star Wars forums. I'll bet they're up all night missing out on all the lightsaber legacy that awaits them! :D

I don't matter spending 1 hour fixing the erros and then having hundreds of hours of fun with superior graphics, superior pc community, etc...

"A GeForce GTX 280 requires you to have a 550 Watt power supply unit at minimum if you use it in a high-end system. That power supply needs to have (in total accumulated) at least 40 Amps available on the 12 volts rails."

HipHopBeats

Depending on where you live, yes. So, it's not a necessity at all times. Regardless, driving is a luxury as many cannot afford it.

You still have to pay for things you buy, that's life. It's akin to buying a set-top box for your TV, yet still having to pay a company to actually have access to the TV channels. Paying for stuff even after you purchased it is not an unusual thing... Nor is it all that ridiculous.

i just find it hilarious how pc fanboys will never admit to any drawbacks of their precious platform. lol everything's perfect.

Nope try again. I gave a list of some of the things that an MMO supscription pays for, and i gave a list of the things an XBOX live subscriber pays twice for but the little fanboy didnt like it ...didnt like the truth. So yeah PC gamers are all angry according to you, this is the type of ignorrance im talking about so re-check your definition of a fanboy. Because you are one.

You categorise me as someone who cant admit to any drawbacks, all from a single post of factual information that obviously tickled a fanboy nerve and caused you to respond the way you did.

Anyway, I have better things to do than argue with angry kids... gona go play some TF2 on dedicated servers that i dont have to pay twice for. /Bye :D
