I think the more recent, smoother mmo launches helps compared to the darkfall, WAR, AoC debacle. Some stuff is still going on though.

However I have to ask you, what is your definition of a "flamer"?

In my opinion these forums are overrun with zealous "fanboys" who feel threatened whenever you make a critical point of anything. If you don't like this or that or think some games are fundamentally flawed.

In general I find this whole "fanboy" and "flamer|hater|doomsayer" is simplistic and stupid. Time and time again I have been labelled "hater" or "doomsayer" for calling out things that are wrong with a game under development. And I still have to find myself not right. And more funny, usually the other half turns around after launch and agree that the game was indeed flawed.

Yeah, but you are playing AoC, you have no standards.

 

That just come from the Blizzard fanboy (look at his post history)

ROFL

 

How does caling me a fanboy help your point? You do exactly what you criticize in your post and make yourself look like fanboy. Out of all the big releases last year, AoC is the biggest failure, so questioning your standards is completely valid. You yourself emphasise your critical opinion on fundamental flaws.

Oh, and as to my posting history, if you really check it you will find I consider WoW and EVE as the only two MMORPGs worth playing right now. It just happens I enjoy WoW, not EVE.

A war only got two losers, although one lost slightly more than the other.

Yes, World of Animecraft will be our savior.

 

Actually, Aion is made like Lineage, not WoW.  The games may be similir because most MMO that are hack & slash are set up in a similiar manner.

The game is pretty good, better than WoW in almost every aspect.  I doubt it would rival WoW's PvE endgame content, but that is not Aion's focus.

If it's more like L2, I guess we'll see the a new race after launch....The Bots.

You are acting like a fanboy because you are extremely biased.  While AoC was an epic fail launch, which is classic of Funcom, please do not act like WoW launch was without hiccups.  In fact, it was VERY troublesome as almost all MMO launches run into serious problems.  By today's standards, it would have been considered "FAIL" as well.

The fact is that AoC has come a long way and it is a solid PvP game with an interesting combat system, and good story.  It is a deeper game than WoW, which is not exactly hard to be unless we're talking about Browser games.  I've played it recently, have you?  I chose not to stick with it as I have limited time and found games better in my opinion, but I would definitely revisit it.

Yeah, I am actually quite concerned about that and that will be a key point.  But supposedly, NCSoft is taking a different approach with Western launch and will keep the botters out.

Aion is putting the flamers to rest, they have nothing to flame the game is amazing.

And i also agree, I hope that NC takes actions to prevent botters, L2 was bad.

Why are you even talking about WoW?
