Is AoC the perfect game? No.
Does it have issues, bugs, lacks? Yes.
Was AoC rushed, things missing? Yes.
Still, I'd rather be playing AoC, than being bored to death with the other games out there that is either more limited, old, boring, cloned.
Notice the flamers don't really have any option to playing AoC, they are either waiting (!) for another game, or going to games like Vanguard, Tabula Rasa...
Well, if you're waiting for a game, you're not really playing it are you...
What about upcoming games?
Well Warhammer is soon to be released, and from what is said, it's less buggy and more polished. And will probably have more subscribers than AoC.
I don't really care, it still looks like a boring WoW-clone, alot of people seem to think it's just boring.
The only game that could really challenge AoC is Darkfall.
However Darkfall got shitty graphics, and it isn't as unlimited as you'd like it to be. Though it's a step in the right direction.
Until something better shows up I'll continue subscribing to AoC. Not only because it's the game I prefer to play, but it's a support for someting new and innovative in the MMO buisness. I might leave if I see a better game, but not before.
So AoC is not perfect, has bugs and is rushed. And its the best MMO? Nice logic. But its your money, I can think of better MMO's spend my cash on.
Like putting lipstick on a pig.
I can't see them merging servers, they have never done it with Anarchy Online, and with the instanced way the game works with the battlekeeps, I don't think they will have the skill to pull it of.
The game will end up like Star Wars Galaxies, a bunch of dead servers with a hundred or so players on them, and having to pay to transfer your toon over to another more populated server.
This is a good vid too, shows the possible scale of battles, if only....

Been playing this game for years, still no game touches it terms of mounted combat, and to think it was made by 2 people.
Nope http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaKC0Vl0KmU

Do you currently play a SOE published game?
