I was hoping to play GW2 and was getting caught up in the gargantuan hype wave of ultimate destiny, but fortunately was able to get into one of the BWE where I found the game to be mediocre at best (my main compaint being the awkward, cumbersome basic gameplay/combat). So yeah, going to buy MoP. Main reason probably the Pandarens, as I've been whining for those on the WoW forums since the game was released ;)

let me guess: you stood around, and played it like WoW at level 85 and cursed the game for only giving you 2 abilities

stupid guild wars! I get 50 abilities in WoW and only 2 in GW2! and this is juts button mashing and so on...

 

if you play it like WoW, you simply do not play how it is intended.

 

and the combat and gameplay is about a hundred times more complex, deep and diverse than WoWs.

watch this: it's titled: GW2, where is the skill? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SgfVZZkgsZI

Good God, this thread isn't about GW2.  GW2 fans are raving lunatics.  Say one thing about the game, even on a thread that isn't about GW2, and they can't let it rest.

yeah, I've complemented the game once and had like 10 of them come after me with pitchforks.  I was at a friends and said it was good, except when you're in WvW and you enter an area with huge battles the game freezes up for a sec.  My friends computer is one of the best you can get right now, he built it himself just for GW2.  They took that as a "omg gw2 sux bbqsauce pewpewlazerz" and bashed me lol. 

As for OP, I pre-ordered the collectors edition (box) like I have for everything warcraft.  Warcraft and Rift are the only games I'll pre-order or buy asap.  Everything else has to wait for my "release + 1 month" rule.

Yes, because mmorpgs are a hobby and interest of mine and I want to see MoP for myself since it's a big deal in this field whether you like WoW or not.

I can have fun with WoW, TSW, and GW2 all at the same time.  I'm a major altoholic, so it kind of translates into being a gameoholic, too.

I find DCUO far more entertaining and cheaper in the long run than WOW or GW2 at the moment. I'm glad  to see how far DCUO has come since launch.

Of course I bought MoP

Even despite the Kung Fu Panda expansion, I got 8 years vested in that game.

never had that problem and my hardware is 3-5 years old.

how about watching the video and commenting it?

it clearly shows that there'S no lag in sPvP and how much lag would screw up the game.

watch any streamers doing WvW. no freezing.

watch TB or yogscasts old vids from early beta: no freezing

pls do not assume, just because your friend spent a lot of money, he might have software or hardware issues that have nothing to do with the game.

NO i will not this time.

WoW is done for me and blizzard does nothing to change that , plus my last experience a few months ago my brother ressed my account was horrible .

I wish lot's of fun to those who love it though.

Currently enjoying GW2 whenever i have time.

Ah this thread keeps creaping back.  I voted no initially, and thought it would just go away.

But the answer is still NO.  Cataclysm showed me what the newly formed Activision-Blizzard had to offer, compared to the old Blizzard.  It is lifeless, devoid of details.

Sure Cataclysm extended the content, but at what expense?  I would always find new stuff to do in WotLK (and before).  Cataclysm made it so you can complete 500 quests in 5 days to finish the questing experience.  Lockouts were another big deal, since now you could only do 1/2 of what you used to do - 10/25 shared lockouts killed 25 man guilds and left PuG's staring at the ceiling for new things to do [they eventually read about other games and played them instead, while bored].  Nearly everything in Cataclysm was rehashed content.  MoP?  Wont pre-order, no thanks.

Then there is the details portion .. In older expansions, everything felt new again.  Giving the same daily rewards for Cataclysm as in previous expansions didn't help (like fishing).  Dalaran was amazing, vibrant with life and stuff to do.  Orgrimmar / Stormwind (as in Cataclysm)? dry as hell.

Activison-Blizzard just isn't up to snuff.

I'm still subscribed to WoW to not lose my Diablo3 access.

I have not played WoW in 5 months and have not played Diablo3 in 3 weeks :s

I decided against MoP before Diablo3 was released, hoping it would hold my attention.

I also have bought GW2, but I can not say that GW2 is the reason I won't buy MoP. Beying bored with WoW is the true reason.

NO WAY !!!

was'nt going to buy Cata. but did a month after release-

canceled sub. 1-month after will never look back.

It's just not the same game anymore- easy game made even easier:(

I'm still on the fence.   I wasn't going to buy Cata because I knew it was going to be the same old same old, but my brother (The typical die-hard WoW fanboy) said "OH man! It is so different now!".  So I bought it and needless to say,  was very disappointed.  

I have the same gut-feeling about MoP. May still buy it to play around with him from time to time though. Who knows.

Well if GW2 keeps shutting my goddamn pc down, I might.  Last blue screen was in under 3 minutes logged in.

Sigh... I don't even like pandas.

Been absent for 5 months now because I've had it with FL and then with DS. Two very poorly executed raids (in my opinion).

Since raiding is the most important thing for me I will be coming back because they introduced few tweaks to current raiding system - achievements for defeating content without Nerfs and Heroic Elite drops similar to Ulduar raid system.

Also world bosses *MIGHT* bring some level of world PvP.

Jesus man, try to stay calm. I wasn't even talking about depth. It just doesn't feel fluid and responsive to fight in GW2. Combined with quirky animations and sounds that don't really impress, it just wasn't fun. To me it just felt awkward and unrewarding.

For what it's worth I think you have way too many abilities in WoW these days, but this seems to be alleviated in MoP if I'm not mistaken. Gotta call BS on it being a hundred times more complex though. I'd say it's just about the same amount of complexity.

Anyway, back on topic. Let's not derail further.
