We're not exactly moaning about the next few months are we. The loot situation has been horrible since release now and they've refused to increase the rates. A screen up made the game a lot more enjoyable and was then reversed. We need a proper comment, not this.
The loot has been fun exactly two times since release, and both times were accidents. I mean, if that doesn't tell you they don't know what they are doing I don't what would. The fact he mentions "months" is laughable, though, considering weeks would be too long. Months of the game in this state and no one will care.
people are so gloom and doom when talking about this game...it's totally silly...Destiny, Division 1 etc took around a year to 'fix'...Anthem will also get better over time...people hate EA so much that they aren't willing to give the game the same chances as other similar games...people need to relax...they are fixing bugs very quickly and people are still not satisfied...they fixed the Lvl 1 weapon bug within 2 days!!...people are probably upset that they fixed it so quickly because they can't complain about it anymore...let go of your EA-hate and give the game longer then 2 weeks to thrive...seriously people you do realize that the game has only been out 2 weeks right?
You've been pushing this "EA hate" scapegoat thing since before release, it's time to let it go. If this game game fails it won't be because of people hating on EA. People have hated EA for decades and will still turn around and buy their games. The hate has nothing to do with EA and everything to do with Anthem. People aren't mad at EA for quickplay still being broken over three weeks later. People aren't mad at EA for the shitty loot issues. People aren't mad at EA because of the constant long loading times. People aren't even mad at EA over the lack of content, the ridiculous difficulty curve, the slew of bugs, the crashes or the disconnects, or the hundreds of other problems with the game. That's all Anthem.
And here's another thing, those other games you mentioned still exist. People aren't going to give you Destiny time to fix Anthem because Destiny already exists and is functional and fun to play, so it doesn't matter if Destiny took a year to get good, Anthem doesn't have that luxury. You can already see the cracks in the support. Go to /r/AnthemTheGame, a place generally filled with people who like the game, and you can already see the tide shifting from the "BW is so great for talking to us" to "fix your game" type stuff. The entire front page is nothing but people angry with Bioware's loot bugs being better and more fun than Bioware's actually intended design...also not EA hate, btw.
