GW2 will probably underpreform, due to player community?

He should go to Bellevue, Washington, camp outside of Arenanet with a tin cup. Have a sign requesting donations so he can buy the game, since he couldn't get in the beta.


You know I'm not the one bringing this up, so I don't know how it is pertinent to this thread.

Also, please know all the facts. I would be getting 4 friends into the game as well as myself purchasing 4 copies, because I like to multi-box. Price is not a problem, but spending 4 x $60 = $240 + another $240 from my friends, is a good deal of money. I wanted to test beta before spending that cash. But I digress, this has nothing to do with the topic at hand.


So first its 4 copies of the game and now its 8 copies of the game? Why don't you define all of the facts once and for all before you tell someone else to know all the facts that change on a daily basis

I guess you don't have car problems anymore and could afford the box now.

The game will be considered a success, but in the eyes of gamers, possibly a failure?

There's your first problem. "Gamer" isn't a thing. Either every single person who plays any one game for any small amount of time is a gamer, or nobody is. You can't really exclude anyone from this since they don't play competitive/deeply immersive games.


He's running an implicit 'No True Scotsman' fallacy. He doesn't know it, but that's the core of his argument. "True gamers" won't like the game, therefore... blah, blah, blah...

Later he moves the goal posts and contradicts himself.


Classic old-school UseNet troll.

Well That is why I said potential 240 more dollars. Since I'm not buying them for my friends, I left it out of the original discussion. But If I don't get it, I doubt my friends will. They usually like grouping up with me, since in DaOC we would 8 man zergs (me with 4 comps), then them 4.

Immature people is in every online game. As far as GW1 goes, I don't know where you're apparently seeing people act like you say is like XBL, but when I play GW1 I find no issue with the community.

Because facts have nothing to do with anything. He's going to throw as much crap against the wall as possible.


First, who is going to 'quad-box' this game? Is he planning on running a bot-farm?

And while there a some game amenable to multi-boxing, this one isn't. It's just pointless as it requires active, constant input to make the game work. So, right off the bat, I pegged him for someone who's making crap up so he can 'justify' his trolling.

But he's not even a good BSer because it's been so unrealistic.

Stress test was over about a hour and a half ago. I was just talking one box if you wanted to try the game in twenty three days.

It's easier then you think with the right equipment. Also, look up "team wizzy" on youtube. They were a group of wizards that would one shot (aoe nuke) zergs down. Because 4 of them doing it at the same moment kills things.

But you bring up a good point. DAoc I needed macros, so if this game doesn't allow for those, I probably can't multi-box anyway.

Yea, I don't know if you can make Macros, since I never got to play it. I guess I just assumed. Is there a way to quickly target what other people target?

If not, I'll probably have to stick to one copy if I do purchase this game.
