You left out Darkfall Online.  Bad poll.

trying to make player believe its something else is funy,

rune of magic has as much chance of being the next big ,as ddo f2p as as much chance of being the next big too

the only thing that could make player change their mind is the fact that ncsoft might be moreactive in aion 

thats their trump card!if ncsoft organise stuff in the game like live event or whatever they cook up

then yes they got the possibility of being the top game of for the next 12 month

but from the way blizzard went at blizzcon,it looks like aion wont even be a danger to them(wow)and by the time ncsoft 

finally realise it blizzard will have released cataclysm ,so anything ncsoft make happens when cataclysm is released will be too little too late because after that player will go back to wow


 

This guy hasn't heard of Guild Wars 2 has he...

This is not a game.

Top 5 MMOs:

EvE
SoR
AO
UO
DAoC

None of the games coming out this september are good enough or appeal to my gameplay style and WoW is old news for me.

Aion is decent but I don't plan on spending much time with it, haven't considered CO and FE needs more time to work out the kinks like every indy game.

Ill stick to the sandbox games like Eve,Ryzom and DF in october instead. Both Aion and CO arent my deal.

Why would I play a pathetic themepark MMO when I could enjoy a masterpiece like Mass Effect, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Dragon Age?

Aion it is for me.  I've played WOW since it's release and have grown so bored with it I cannot bring myself to even think about going back.  I've played on Champions and have been less than impressed, so no dice there.  GW2 looks really interesting, but not a huge fan of the first GW, although I fire it up from time to time just for the fun of it.  Fallen Earth is pretty fun, you left that one out.  Looking forward to STO and SWTOR!!

None probably. But if I'd have to, it would be CO.

Played WoW for too long, so I won't play it anymore. There is too much about Aion that I dislike, and pretty graphics ain't reason enough for me. CO looks like fun, but I learned not to play a MMORPG once it is relased, but wait a while. ^^

Definately Aion... I loved that game in korea (played it for 3 months) and cant wait to play on EU/US - one of the most underestimated games - simply awesome in polishing and quality compared to Aoc/War/Lotro... ;)

Currently playing: Aion
Waiting for: -

I love the character customization of Champions Online, but the performance is poor, as is the setting/story. Don't know if I'll stick with this one.

Aion lacks character customization (I don't mean appearance here) and plays very old-school (focus on grouping, relatively grindy and very specialized classes). Definitely not the MMO for me, even though it has an immersive setting.

WoW...well, I guess I'll have to keep playing WoW because all my (online) buddies are....

Look inside yourself, before you point out others faults.

9/14/09 8:57:41 AM#34

Sorry but I think you forgot some games. But from that list non.

 

More information

Aion:                    Don't like the Reviews. Dose not sound like my type of game.

Champions:       Based on the Reviews and what some friends have told me about the game, well let me say I have played CoH and CoV.

WOW:                 Played it for 4 years. DONE. I will not go back to it, I will not buy anything new for it. It is what it is.

 

I suggest LOTRO

…..it’s a guideline, not a rule, as players we must remember: “It’s a Game”.

You forgot none of the above, a very obvious choice.  Why conduct a pole so limiting as to make it meaningless?

( The Cataclysm seams more of the same to me in that it does nt address the real issues that are leading me to give up WoW after 4 and half years ) .


 

This.

Meet the main reason why any new MMORPG looses its subscriptions within 3 months of launch.

This guy is about 70% of the new population of any new game.

And then they wonder why the last 3 years only consisted of duds.

Playing a Korean or American or Brittish copy of something you have played for years is the fastest way to boredom.

Grtz. I guess you don't deserve anything better than the localized translated text boxes and invisible walls and frontiers.

I'm going back to World of Warcraft.  Why?  Because it's one of the only games in the market, beside Ultima, that I actually enjoy logging onto. 

1999 - 2008 Ultima Online veteran and I enjoy World of Warcraft!

I have been to the end of the universe and back only to find that the beginning and end are the same.

Definately not Aion as it bored me to death. The list you have here I would say none. If these were the only 3 games in the world I would go with WOW.

 Aion- because its a great game contrary to what all the  WoW fanboi's have bitched about.

Champions- no way in hell....just no. Friends bought it.. played it.... saw the shittyness, not going to that game.

WoW- Played for 3.5 Years. BEYOND burnted out by all the idiocy in that game. And even more amazed at all the guys who bitch about the game and then go back to it with the excuse  of (well its the only thing thats good....) then quit again 2 weeks later remembering why they quit the first time. You know who you people are... and you sicken me... grr lol.

None, because they're all theme park with little depth.  Just not my type of game.

Aion and EVE will be my games of choice this fall.

edit: As to why... .sometimes even though blowing stuff up with lasers is tons of fun in EVE, you just need to hit something with a good broadsword.

Those 3 choices are like the furthest 3 games from my mind lol.

CO comes across as being a little kids game of superman vs batman or whatever it offers no interest to me.

Aion is far too boring,bigtime over rated game.

WOW? why on earth would i decide to pick that game up and play it all of a sudden?it that was directed towards those already playing WOW,you can bet they will continue their accounts,most people take their virtual world too serious and are afraid to let go.

As of right now,i might take a peek at MO,i have little hope for it however,but i will still take a look.Perhaps Huxley but that is a slim chance.GW2 is a good bet that i will at least give it some play time,to see how they did things and how much effort and creativity went into the combat system and the entire world.

I will probably just hangout in ROM until i get a first hand play of FFXIV,as of right now that is the only developer i have any hope to deliver.At present time i even have little hope for FFXIV,but at least there is still hope lol.Beyond that i am still hoping for Schilling's game from 38 studios but they recently had a big shot leave,so who knows maybe that developer is struggling as well.

Aion is the only one on that list I would play, there are other options out ther though.

I will be playing Aion but I tend to play more than one MMO and like to try every MMO I can so ya what I will be doing isn't rolly what most of you will be doing.

I'm in ur MMO.
Soloin' ur mobs.

9/14/09 1:49:47 PM#48

WoW for PvE, EVE for PvP.

I don't like Aion's anime art style, race restrictions or class rigidity.

Champions is fun, but I don't see it as a long-term prospect as the combat is very simplistic.

Waiting for: Star Wars: The Old Republic, Mass Effect 2, FF XIII & XIV
