WAR > AOC

I love how Mythic is sticking it to Funcom (Failcom) by releasing patches super fast, we don't have to wait weeks between known exploits for them to fix it, they fix all of the problems on the server side with a few meg patch to upgrade our software...

I love how Mythic is just amazing.. it is funny to see how most of the AOC fanbase feel like they were screwed by Failcom and moved to WAR and are having a GREAT experience, I know because I am one of them.. :D

I think that has more to do with the lack of capital. Funcom isn't backed by a monolithic gaming corporation with plenty of resources to spare. Mythic can pull this off because they have the resources to hire people just to go into the game and patch things. Funcom doesn't.

If Funcom wasn't so ambitious, they'd have done just fine, but they went well beyond their reach. Reaching for the stars is fine, just don't do it over the open mouth of a volcano.
