"Mythic is not "merging" with Bioware.

Mythic and Bioware remain independent EA studios within a larger MMO/RPG group.

Thanks!"

Wow can you say Vanguard boy's and girl's, seems very much what happen in that game. Bad code poor performance poor end game sub's dropping, top guy gets fired another company comes in. The end of War? I sure hope not I still like this game with all it's faults and keep hoping things will get better maybe BioWare will fix things? Or is it the beginning of the end ie (Earth and beyond).

All i know is there is only two servers with med pop right now in prime time DG and PT IR is half and half, not good the game is dieing and throwing content at a broken game IMO won't fix it. Fix what is broke first then add the content, just my two coppers

There is never the need to compare one games faults to another. It is a way of oversimplifying a situation.

The two teams are different by the way. From what I have heard the content and bug fixing teams are not one in the same.

WAR is my favorite mmo on the market right now, I am interested in seeing what these changes will bring. A new perspective can yield improvement or even just something new to see.

if they would do any major changes I hope it will be the horrible performance.
Can't belive they even released the game in its state

Maybe things will get better? This is why people generaly leave companies. Who knows but he did respond to one of my " official forum " ( not this fanboy site one ) messages I sent to him.... So hes an alright guy with me. Hope he finds something better for work or whatever.
