I don't see why people are so upset over this. There must be some other issues going on.

So what if they ground 50 lvls? This was their challenge to themselves.

I would think that many players choose to do things in game that some of us might also find a waste. collect pets? Housing? Role Play?

Regardless of whether they play again they made a challenge that they found of interest. And they did it. No one else has to do what they did, you are all free to play how you want to play.

we are also free to comment on it as well.  And I know thats exactly what I was doing.  I even mentioned IMO.   Also, I am not the least bit upset -- man I would hope I have more serious things to get upset over in life.  Regardless, this is a message board and me along with some others expressed our opinions on the OPs topic.

Whats the problem ?

Now I think you are personalizing it.

In general what's the big deal that these players did this? so what.

And yes, you are free to comment. I don't really believe I ever said people can't comment. But I also believe that players have the right to play how they want in a game they are paying for provided it is in the rules.

edit: ok Now I see your post. Wasn't really addressing you. If I was I would have quoted you. But in short, regardless of what you find fun in an mmo, others might also find other types of challenges enjoyable, even if they are short term.

Some collect things. I can't in my wildest dreams understand what is fun about that. But they do it and more power to them.

Fail / Uber fail!

 

Why is it a uber fail. The only fail was that he left everyone behind eatting dust. Now that he is level 50 he can waste his time doing quests.

playing an MMO is not a race to max level.  I am not going to waste my time explaining all the points and fun parts to playing and levelling your character in MMOs.

  Let me guess, wow was your first MMO ?
 

Never played Wow.  In order UO/EQ/Shadow Bane/DAoC/SWG/EQ2 and EvE still playing Eve. And who are you too decide for me what is fun. I think grinding is fun and ganking noobs like you is fun. Thats one of the problems with mmo's being created ..everyone has to decide for otheres what is fun and not what the player wants

"And who are you too decide for me what is fun."  -- I could care less about you.  You voiced an opinion on the topic and I voiced an opinion.  Our opinions differ.  Deal with it.  You dont like the opinions of someone like me who PLAYS AION, then I suggest you stay with the Eve fanbois and post messages on that board ---  Just sayin'.
 

You have to feel sorry for these people, what they will do for 15 seconds of fame. :)

If they found that of interest, they are morons. And if they actually did it, they are beyond stupid.

Setting max level as the be-all end-all goal in your MMORPG = epic fail move.

When did MMO players become so stupid?

DONT PLAY A GAME IF IT ISN'T FUN. Don't wait for the XX level where it supposedly "becomes" fun. Just PLAY and have fun and if you're not, at any level, find a new game. And complain less to the rest of us. Though I'd love to hear your well thought out opinions, QQ'ing is far off the mark.

Well, it's a bit intense for my taste but I have friends and business associates who think all video games are a waste and those who play are wasting their lives. If you think they are morons then fine.  But as one of my ex-coworkers asked me "do adults really do that"? (play video games) I guess you might see that in the end we are all morons to someone.

 In the end, it really doesn't matter what others think but what a person believes is an enjoyable use of their free time.

Anyone remember RFO?  Did you play it?  Granted, there were pretty much 0 quests, end-game here reminds me of RFO. I played that 2 months after release to see it die horribly because the req. XP was ridiculous like AION and you had to grind elite mobs to gain a decent amount of XP.  You couldn't solo them and if your grind group was attacked by the other faction and you whiped, lol you just lost hours of XP.

not sure how AION PvP is, but at least RFO PvP was fun for a little while.  I'm just curious what is the redeeming factor to AION.  After my experience with RFO, I told myself never to impulsively get a Korean game....

Well, I personally like the pvp as well as the larger group pvp fights. That and the setting and it is an enjoyable game for me. The pve is average at best in my opinon. Well, just average, I'll leave out the best as I think even the worst pve quest/mob/AI in Aion is still better than the come of the pve content in warhammer.

This guy/girl has no life....Getting to level 50 takes atleast 10x24 hours....The game launched for preorder versions on the 20th which is 3 weeks ago. So in 3 weeks he/she played around  12 hours a day.....

Can anyone read the Korean/Japanese patch notes to see if they add quests 40+?

Just curious~~~  I myself would not want to grind like this guy hehe

There are quests (and with next patch probably their exp reward will be bigger) but he/she choose to just grind to cap without doing any quests, go figure why he/she doesn't want to do it again.

ahh ~ i see ^_^  Crazy guy lol

this guy is pretty sick ;)

it was you wasnt it!!

what class was he btw?

He played for the sake of being one of the first 50. That's ridiculous. Play for fun, group with ppl, discover the game instances and you will enjoy 45 to 50 even if you are not harcore and will need a month to get the last 5 levels...

Could not agree more and yes I would never do that myself either.
