2 Star for Defiance?
I've said a million times games shouldn't be rated for time but each time the idea gets shot down. So if time counts Defiance is 4 stars at least.
Seriously, that game is pretty much all I've been playing on PS3 since the end of July (aside from some GTA, but since GTA release still played 50/50 split with Defiance). The time estimate on PS3T is from near release when servers had lots more people.
Just gonna copy/paste something I posted about 6 weeks ago in this thread.
That 250+ hours was on release when the servers were populated. They really dead now so starting PVP which is directly needed for some trophies, and indirectly needed for others takes FOREVER.
To put into perspective, I've been playing it every day almost for over a month now. One trophy is to win 10 matches on the Freight Yard map. My counter says I have -played- 6 matches in total, do not think won them all. It takes 24 people to start a match, I try constantly, I get put in queue and most days is says needed 21-23 more people, meaning most days is just me trying to play it, or 2 other people at best.
So somehow I've got to play this map and win on it 10 times. Oh and those 6 are before the last patch which made a similar game mode that needed 32 people to start only need 8, so anyone who liked the Freight Yard map now plays the 8 needed to start mode.
That is one trophy. I also need 2500+ EGO, you get EGO by completing tasks/pursuits, well I've done all the tasks in the game including all the PVP ones, except for ones that require I play on Freight Yard. I need to keep playing the map to complete tasks, assuming I could even play the map getting the tasks isn't a simple thing and would need many matches.
The alternative to getting those PVP pursuits is raising all my weapons weapon level, well I've maxed all the easy ones already so all I got left are the hard to level up ones, and it takes hours to level them up even once, when I do level them up, I get a very very small EGO increase. So without the Freight Yard PVP which would need as a guess, 10+ hours of in-match time (which would be even longer with matchmaking), I'm looking at god knows how hours more for the weapons instead, maybe don't need them all so maybe a bit less.
Another trophy, for getting reputation with vendors requires for one of them to do PVP tasks, you get daily contracts that award +10 rep, and weekly contracts that reward +50 rep, well when one of these states Capture and Hold (Freight Yard map) or Freight Yard directly itself, pretty much a failed contract because just cannot get the matches started, let alone do what the contract wants. You need 600 rep so it is something that will take if you did every daily and every weekly contract a bare minimum 5 weeks (of playing every single day!). But since Freight Yard causes contracts to fail, you can extend that timespan to a lot lot more.
250 hours isn't anywhere close to the time needed. Is a lot more.
Change of rating please! Or alternatively nerf the rating of every time-sink game.
