Winter 2014? Does that mean the start of 2014 or the end!!!!
I hope it wasn't chock full of BS. Apparently Microsoft has been keen on showing games off with i7 + GTX 780 on Win7. The hype might not carry over when it's running on APU with shared DDR3 and ~7790. It really throws everything at E3 into question, and their choice of running Windows 7 instead of 8 is just hilarious.
As for the game, definitely. I don't trust Ubisoft very much, they're about on par with EA, but when they have something cool I'll give them props.
The only thing about that demo however is you need to replace every tactical senteance with the sounds of the average internet idiot. You teammates will constantly be calling you a fagot and various other nasties and they'll rage quit half way through fights and all the usual rubbish. That will very dramatically change the character of the game compared to the team tactical discussion going on.
I don't know what kind of awful experience you have had in MMO's, but that is not what I've ever expected. What you see in the demo is exactly what I've ever seen in any MMO group experience.
That's the difference between a more mature PC MMO community (not really WoW unless you actively look for people) and the random kids you run into jumping onto Xbox Live. I've typically had very good experiences in PC MMOs, but absolutely hate getting on Live. Hopefully this game sparks more of the MMO vibe.
