I've had the (dis)pleasure of participating in 3 tower battles now, and in each case the result has been completely unsatisfying. A quick list of things that make land battles completely NOT fun:
1) Border camping (not that this was EVER mentioned in beta).
2) Unplayable lag.
3) Bonuses that don't work. Why defend a base when the only loss at stake is the 2-3 million creds spent to put it up?
Funcom, everyone knows that you need NW to succeed if you are to continue as a going concern. Right now, however, it just doesn't work. And no, this is not a whine; I'm not saying it is unbalanced or not fair or whatever; I am saying that it just *doesn't work*.
I want NW to do well. I want Funcom to do well. However, neither of these is going to happen unless you guys act pretty fast, because at this rate it won't even matter if you fix the distribution problems with the booster, as no one will even want to play it.
