Topaz Quasar Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Topaz, why do you keep responding? You've made your feelings known, but this is a thread for people to vent their frustrations. You're not helping matters by posting the same "its just a game" rheteric over and over to every post. Read the topic title, realize it's a "venting" thread, and stay clear. All your posts are doing is enflaming posters to arguments. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Somethingorother Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 But what if we could get the US xbox date pushed back? That would be a great thing- a victory of Cosumer rights of the money-making whims of some CEO who's probably never so much as looked at a game in his life <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ROFLMAO Victory of consumer rights? More like victory of spoiled PC gamers. So you want the X-Box version to sit in a warehouse for 2 months until the PC version is finished, eh? Yeah, it's crystal clear what's really going on here...... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's very cynical of u. Would it hurt u to wait a mere 2 months with the rest of the world?

Darth Somethingorother Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 So why not just keep thier word? No, it wasn't signed in blood, ur right. It wouldn't have hurt them to release everything at the same time like they said they would, in every magazine/internet article. They wouldn't lose out. But the way they've handled this- no apology or anything- has hurt them in terms of customer relations. Do you know of this phenomena? Bad customer care can often affect sales. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They should apologize for choosing to release the X-Box version when it's ready and not wait until the PC version is ready? Don't you think that would be unfair to X-Box consumers? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ah ah ah, US xbox consumers. Roughly 50m/2-3billion. Now what's unfair?

ShinIchiro Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 So this is the offical complaint thread? I wonder if they made one just so they would know what thread to ignore... :D As much as I frequently disagree with Hades, I'd say his earlier posts are definately right (I haven't read past page 1 as you can't expect me to read 16 pages). We've been let down. It happened earlier and has happened again. Obsidian want's to get out of Bioware's shadow, yet makes the same mistakes.

Who would be treated unfairly? Had they issued simultanious release dates, would x box users in the US be complaining? No, they wouldn't because we'd all get it at the same time. This way there is an element of annoyance. So what exactly would be wrong with "my way" as you put it. Would it not have suited everyone? I don't expect the release date to be pushed back. All I'm saying is that they've handled it in a way which has upset some people, as you can see from the sheer amount of reaction to it. People aren't reacting over nothing. They're reacting because they've been treated very badly, and haven't had so much as an apology. "If i remember the trailer they showed the xbox version of KOTOR 2.....and at the end of the trailer....it said winter 2004......maybe they meant xbox version to be released in 2004 since the start" No because it showed the Xbox and PCCD logos, sorry.

jaguars4ever Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 "A delay is a delay is a delay." Sure it is, but the PC version isn't really delayed, the X-box one is just coming out sooner that it was supposed to. "Shoddy treatment of customers, lies and deception coupled with a second-rate product normally equals a loss of business for any other company." Shouldn't you actually wait for the product to come out before calling it second-rate? Just a thought. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Second-rate in the sense that us PC gamers are receiving a spoiled and hence not a truly "new" product. In a cRPG of this nature, plot twits and other story related mechanisms are quintessentially integral. If these qualities become invalidated then it pretty much is second-rate for us PC gamers. Sad but true. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of anything that comes anywhere near these (except the population of the planet, which is greater than 3 billion). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> America's population is about 300 million taking into account mormonism, if each houshold has an xbox owner your looking at 50-60 million people who actually own and play an xbox. I could be wrong, of course, but its only common sense. The world's population is over 3b, yes, in fact its over 6 billion (before you tell ME to get MY facts straight) Around half of them probably own an xbox, again, I could be wrong, but the point was that u get the idea right? there are, in fact, other places in the world than America, and that America isn't even the world's largest country, therefore giving KOTOR2 early to a small percentage is unfair on the rest of us.
