I think GW is to restricting, you have to follow premade paths and all that, doesn't make it to hard to find something :p

Pff dunno where you hear it would be "WoW 2". All it is is 1 giant patch :p. All Blizzard did was add 2 new races (not classes) and 4 new zones, and some flying mounts, which according to some, can only be used in those specific zones. So why bother joining the 7+ other million people who will be creating the same newbie Dranei or whatever the classes are. |

Know what perplexes me? How all these games can be so FREE! How do they do it?! I know they have the item malls...but do they REALLY make enough money off those to keep them absolutely free?! And if so, why can't the bloody big corporations like Sony or Blizzard adopt something like this? And, how much is Blizzard really spending that the wait time for a GM to answer a petition could be 40 minutes to 4 hours, or the servers still lag and disconnect? There's 7+ million people who pay $15 a month (not including the expansion revenue they'll make) and get what? Crappeh service?

DDO player leaving. Looking for new MMO - help
The Rusty Nail (General) « D&D Online 1/15/07 1:27:26 AM
I'am third the movement on City of Heroes/Villians, it's an EXTREMELY fun game to get into, much to my surprise beign 1 who never read comic books or any of that. BUT! I would also like to suggest http://www.voyagecenturyonline.com. VCO is an MMO pirate game with alot of options. Though the translations are worse than Google can do :p but there's plenty of people willing to help you. I think it's relatively new...they still have problems with their item mall that's for sure. But it's forever free and forever fun ;) (Time consuming too :P) Oh and, don't bother exploring past Africa if ya do decide to play, COMPLETE waste of your life lol.

I think the question we should be asking ourselves here is what really makes something an MMORPG? I think any game now a days can claim that it's an MMORPG just because it surpassed 1,000 members or something. But in my opinion, a true RPG whether MMO or not will give you the ability to do whatever you want...not 1 ability to wack mobs solo or with a group, which I might add is what WoW is. WoW is NOT an RPG, its a badly cartooned, badly run, wack a mole game :p. A game where you don't need to fight at all to get a place in the world is an RPG.

Why does this game even have a naming policy?
General Discussion « World of Warcraft 1/15/07 1:10:31 AM
I've seen enforcement in action, its funny. But it has to be reported like all things do, and you have to wait for a couple of days for a reply the way WoW is there's like 1 gm for every 1,000 players -.- and with 7+ million players....yea I'm sure you get the picture. WoW is stupid too. They give you a warning for saying the F word, in a game with a population bigger than most countries...and claim it's harrasment...HAHAHA hypocrits! This is coming from the game that bans homosexual people or anyone who advertises that a guild is gay/lesbian friendly.

Voyage Century: Fourth Server Up and Running
News Discussion « General Discussion 1/13/07 2:45:23 AM
Hahahaha that's funny...players keep getting spammed in game that they know the servers are reaching their limits and they'll add a new 1 tomorrow...when did I first recieve that message? 2 days ago...ROFL. I play this game...OMG its fun!!!! But the translations screw up alot of the quests...and I mean ALOT. And the gm's are bout as useful as a cucumber. Sorry to any cucumbers...but other than that, and the frequent game crashes (Don't hit ctrl A in your chat box) the game rocks!! Lots to do! Lots to explore! Lots to die from xD! Need any info on it go ahead and pop a message my way :) |

Graphics: 3.5 - Why? Because it's to bloody cartoony and overexagerated. Art: 10 - Only because it's fun to look at the female characters whos armor gets skimpier and skimpier throughout the game, talk about sexist though :p. Sound: 8 - Music is nice...but gets boring after a bit. Gameplay: 4 - Monotonous, and as you pointed out some situations can make you pissy, and the players suck, it's amazing any of them make the money to play. But I found myself a guild that might raise that to a 6.5 :p. Fun: - Doesn't that fall under gameplay? I give it a 2 if you play for to long or burnout on it. Both are easy to do :p. Community: 4.5 - I've found some extremely helpful, and not so extremely helpful people. I try to be an extremely helpful 1. Performance: 4 - The servers suck.....Alot...Constant lag sometimes that requires a reset of a server which is sad. Customer Service: 5 - 5? Why 5!? Oh wait...I had 1 really really exciting experience with a GM she was great...wish I coulda talked to her again...but yea, don't know what ya doing wrong there. I usually get a straight, good answer from GM's. Some of them need to be fired though >.>. Course, 1 thing did peeve me that in a game of a population bigger than most countries, I got a warning for saying the F word that rhymes with Truck and Muck. But Blizzard claimed it was "harrasment", my reply in a nice email to that? "This coming from the company that threatens to and carries out bans on those who advertise gay/lesbian friendly guilds?" And all was suddenly quiet. Lol. If you don't know about that story, Google it, REAL fun to read. |

Starting WOW from 1 level with no expansion
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 1/13/07 2:25:15 AM
I'd go witha "Save ya money and buy a different better game". WoW gets real boring after a while and won't change with the new expansion. Sure, the new expansion has flying mounts instead of gryphons, but them mounts can only be used in 4 or 5 specific areas, not everywhere. And there's only 2 new races....World of Warcraft jipped it's players by calling it an "expansion" when all it really is is a big patch. I mean sure, it'd be fun to explore the new areas..all what? 4 of them...but then what? Go through the rest of WoW that you already know and point out the swarm of silithus there...and the over cartooned boat or city of Stormwind or something...that's another problem with WoW, it's one GIANT cartoon...some of the stuff looks rediculous, like the boats for example.

Ooo like burning down a whole forest to see if anyone replants it for the welfare of the planet? ;)
My opinion for guildwars? Not enough freedom... |

I think I see what you're getting at. What you mean is, if 1 person finishes a certain quest, then no one else can do that NPC's quest because it has already affected that NPC's life. Or the intended person of the quest. The only plausible way I see of this happening is to have something like Final Fantasy...where your actions in game determine what happens with your life...which would mean, on an MMORPG, people who go seperate ways or they'd band together at the start. |

I was staring at the homepage today, like I frequently do for no reason and noticed the rankings for Best, and most anticipated MMORPG..or just MMO. What I noticed, was that neither had a perfect 10...I'm not entirely sure if this is because the number of votes for each is pretty much even...or each game is missing something that the players want. So, what am I getting at? Well...I want to know what you players think is missing from MMO's or MMORPGs? What do t hey need? Or have but should be improved?
