Wipe the game or not?
Mike Crosser:
Some people seem to have forgotten that grind is a crucial part of every mmorpg.
When you think of it grind is the only think that keeps you going.
You grind your weapons,you grind your armor,you grind your drugs,you grind your alts,you grind your fun.

Have you ever played other MMOs? Name one that requires you to grind simple, brain-numbing, repetitive tasks to use any gameplay mechanic. There's none. 2238 is the sole racing game that requires you to go through the motions of refueling your car before every single race. Even leveling up a lvl-24 char boils down to shooting a million of molerats, because fuck quests and fuck having fun. I wouldn't even call that playing. It's more like manual labor - and people who do manual labor actually get paid.
And yeah, Jovanka might start spouting crap about her valiant efforts to limit this pointless grind, but the fact is that the fun:work ratio isn't even close to 1:1 in this game. In that sense, it isn't free because if I spent all the time I spent crafting ammo doing actual, real-life work I'd be able to afford lifetime subscription to every single modern mmo and a monthly supply of cocaine and hookers.

Then why aren't you? Get your lazy sunlight deprived body out of the house for once, and get a job. Your so busy complaining about this free to play game BETA game, and you could be out having a life. Grow up.

Who said I'm not? It's just that there's a limit to the number of hookers and the amount of intoxicating substances I can take, life's all about doing everything in moderation after all. Oh, and 2238 definitely is not a beta, beta versions by definition have a goal and a list of features to check. Here, educate yourself kid: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_testing

Sometimes i wonder if you want bring devs to a point where they say "fuck this shit!" and take down 2238 for good so they can spend time on more grateful tasks.
And i don't want you to succeed.
