Two reviews of Anarchy Online are out there now, and Hardnews has delivered the first of them. They rate it 3/10, and this is what their "BSOmeter" says:
If ever a release was full of bullshit, this is it. Funcom's promises were grand indeed, and by releasing the game in such a shoddy unplayable state, they've failed to deliver on virtually every one of them. After taking flack from players for weeks, Funcom representatives declared that they were beginning the billing cycle and counting down the free month, and then all but vanished entirely from the message boards. Their "daily updates" on the status of the many, many, many bug fixes needed to make this game worth the money paid for it have became every-other day updates, at the time of this review, it's been four days since players have heard a peep from Funcom. Unless, of course, you count the frequent in-game messages, with such helpful content as "We apologize for this inconvenience: all servers are going down in five minutes for emergency maintenance. No ETA is available at this time for restoration of service."
Then there is Lobbygods, and they are as critical about the game as Hardnews was:
On Lum's site, there was an article that implied that the game is a Steamy Pile of Shit. But really, calling AO a steamy pile of shit is an offense to steamy piles of shit everywhere. I prefer to think of it as a $60 coaster that you pay $13 a month for. There has probably been a worse game hit the shelves at some point in time, but I can't think of one.
They rated Anarchy Online 0/10. Yes, this is zero out of 10. | Source: Blues News |
