Dying (or DEAD) Disney has let us down!

The purpose of this thread is to gather support and demonstrate to Disney that we are all here, dedicated to the game, and that they have an obligation to us, the people that have been here all this time.
Secondly, No one ever said that Disney made any announcements about NOT developing new stuff.
Lastly, If they don't do it soon, there won't be anyone here to see it when it comes out. People have short attention spans. In a gamer environment, they need new goals and achievements to keep the game interesting. Sideshows are fun, but not enough to keep everyone's attention for a long period of time. Every single day, we see posts about people leaving to go to other games. Anyone who leaves, spends even a month in a new game, won't just drop everything and come scurrying back because there is a new quest. We all have seen people leaving in droves, and most of them are leaving for other games. But it is more than just that; As a post earlier stated, they aren't even advertising this game on TV anymore, and if you log into DxD, they haven't even updated the news scroller there since Thanksgiving weekend. It still talks about Founders Feast weekend, and GM tavern Takeovers.

I respect Ben's opinion, and I sure hope that he is correct, that there will be something new when they release the UK version. The fear is that it may be too late to save things here.

I don't agree with you Basil.
First off, to me this is a rant, even if you don't intend for it to be one, it could be interpreted as one. This isn't me griefing either, this is just my opinion and how I look at it. Yes I know I said I was tired of it, but I'm not leaving it anytime soon. Only reading and expecting negative comments on this isn't the best way to address this to Disney. Ben and Sven both agree with me, you can't exclude our opinions from this issue, (it appears that way to some).
Second of all, the way everyone so far has posted, it sounds like they all think they aren't working on it, like Poison Elf said in his last post on this.
And lastly... There are those that even if they don't bring in new updates for a while they WILL come back when they finally do. And that's from from my expeirience. They haven't stopped advertising for the game completely either. AOL Instant Messenger continually runs ads for the game, thats how I found out about it in the first place. I believe it was Ben who said it, that if they stopped running ads for it on TV, there's a pretty good reason for it. As to the scrolly bar, as far as I've seen that has hardly ever been updated. There used to be things running from July in September.

Ben has it right IMO (and again this is MY OPINION, remember that) Disney is working on it, but they work slow, give them time, and if you don't have time, maybe you should take a short break from the game. POTCO is NOT meant to be played 24/7.

That is not what I was saying, and in fact my belief has been the Uk release will be the stuff we will see. What I was saying is they have had 6 months to do this with basically nothing between, to have something. 6 months ago people were asking for Kraken, level upgrade etc, nothing much different than today.

6 months ago people had maxed characters and several. Many today don't yet, but still are feeling the dead end when getting one there. I hope in sense some think I am one of these 24/7, when at the same time they don't like posts here. Wonder why there are so many posts here by some, must be because they are playing so much?

Some people do play a lot, at times I will play my share that is for sure. Again some people build a character in 3 weeks, and play half as long as many others making the same thing. In my opinion, people play how they play, and its not mine or others choice how or how long they enjoy them self. I can say the same type statements to people as well, how come it took ya so long to make a character to 40, you can get 500 rep a kill?

This is not how some people play, its a simple as that. It's also not our choice to decide if someone is laying in a hospital bed and enjoys playing this 24/7. I didn't see anywhere when money was accepted saying you can play this much time. I did see where it said if you are playing for 2 hours its time to take a break, because of the memory leak issue.

The subject is not people wanting to see something every month. It has been many months and not seeing anything. Some want to see their friends again, and not their guilds empty out.

Give them time has been done. Anyone here think 6 months was just not nearly enough time for anything?

This reasoning is like I will give you food and water to survive. I will wait three weeks and give it to ya, wait not sure, maybe we should wait longer, and umm, don't sweat 24/7. But wait I will give you this cup and plate in the meantime.

The point I was trying to make was that there are a lot of players that DO play 24/7, they have mastered all 4 characters, and they still complain about not having anything to do. I'm not trying to tell people what to do, just giving my opinion and my point of view. Seems some don't really see that.

I too am staying away from this thread. Seems pointless to me now.
