Yes the grafix are kinda out of it by now and I also agree its a really good game. Its a winning choice though, a good game that is why

a AO 2 would be a good one I think.

How would you feel if there would be a Anarchy Online 2?

Would it be something you would look forward too?

With upgraded engine, like Cryo2 engine, and lots of other new things.

I hate this time of year in WoW. Just like the previous two years, once the kiddies head back to school Im stuck struggling to find groups.

Ive been in que the past 5 nights for hours looking for heroic slave pens or heroic underbog. Nothing. I picked up some group quests and fear they'll get removed eventually for lack of finding anyone.

Last year at this time I had to resort many times to paying gold to get people to help. Currently  I have 3 group (rec 5) quests from some ogre. I want to do these as it will lead to another chain from some ogre in Lower City. Even if I by a miracle find 5 people to do those 3 quests, I will face more group quests in the next chain.

And before you say get some friends, i have plenty online friends. But guildies are busy as friends are. Everyone is off doing their own things. We raid a lot so once those are done they all log. I stay on to do quests, grind rep, etc. I play at the server time of 5pm til 1am sometimes.

Ive already resorted to paying out 100g for 4 others (25g per) to do the boss quest in Skettis. Im getting sick of sitting in que and having a ton of group quests that will never get done.

Change server will help

Like I said some like coffe and others like tea, or there can also be people that dont like either because they tried none of them.

Anyways if you goto this site http://download.boomtown.net/en_uk/dl/page.php?what=az;sid=1344;gid=3511

download and punch it up on full screen you will get the best possible look on how it looks.

I had to register but when I did I downloaded at 1mb/sec so I was happy i did, there is not any better quality to see that on these movies, the movie pack on 500mb.

Hm,, I cant really say but ive heard some people say that aion's weapon are looking like wows.. But the characters look amazing.  I just hope the game play is as good as i hoped it would be.

Well all games have something from other games , no escaping that .. even wow  "got" stuff from other games and so did every other games that is mmo out there (mostly).

Atleast you will see the difference between wow engine and the Farcry engine aka Crytec engine, the grafix will be like eyecandy.

I just hope the playablility will be good and that you got 100 % control of your charcters when playing. And lets hope its fun playing and not only grind game.

Great... another grind fest with childish manga graphics

Voted 0. Sorry, just being honest!

Some like tea and some drink coffe thanks for being honest :)

This game will be very good, grafics are like hotted up lineage 2 ( lineage 2 looks good, but the playability in it sucks) and controls like wow ( move with awsd keys which means more control over your char) and also got stealth and you dont need mount because you got wings. I rated this 10/10 on the hype because I know this will be a game on the top when its released.

Check the screens on it , but most of all check the videos .. the new ones.

http://download.boomtown.net/en_uk/dl/page.php?what=az;sid=1344;gid=3511   there  is a movie pack on 500mb which is the best i seen yet.

 Just looked on another site and I had to post this aswell what other info was written:

The publisher has high hopes and with and describes the game as

the most beautiful MMORPG ever made (it's powered on the Crytec engine known from Far Cry).

Isnt Matrix Online like this? I cant remeber really someone refresh my memory please...

Oh really?  inlighten me on what the game is based around then.  What do you spend 98% of your time doing in WoW?  What is the long term goal of WoW?  What are 99.5% of people doing each night when they play WoW?

What you describe is the game mechanics, but if you can't think of anything else to do in a persistant world, well, it's not the games fault.

Yes I described the point of WoW the object of what is to be done in WoW.  Listen Im not trying to be mean or anything just putting the truth out there for people who think about WoW or coming back.  Its not a pvp game its not a pve game.  There is nothing that takes skill in that game, all the instance in game can be figured out in one or two run and there is no point to pvp.  The game is over-rated and dieing slow as more people realize that there is 100% nothing to do in that game that isnt based around collecting gear.  Is that fun? Spending hours on end in pve instances that a child could run to collect a new piece of armor?  40 kids on vent crying that they dont have enough DKP?  BGs that have people who dont even give a shit because there is not point to it other than to collect honor which can be traded in for gear so they AFK it the whole night? 

 

Ahh where to start.  I love to spite such ignorance. 

 

"There is nothing that takes skill in that game, all the instance in game can be figured out in one or two run and there is no point to pvp."

So all bosses are figured out in one or two runs?  I wonder why the last boss isn't killed within a week or month of the games release then.  No point in PvP?  How about fun?  Showing that you're better than someone by kicking their ass?  If you think it takes no skill that it's all just luck then go get on a 70 character and enter the arena, I'd like to see you win at all.

 

The game is over-rated and dieing slow as more people realize that there is 100% nothing to do in that game that isnt based around collecting gear.

Dieing slow huh?  I guess that's why the subscribers are growing, funny how that works.

 

Spending hours on end in pve instances that a child could run to collect a new piece of armor?

This is interesting, if instances are so easy that a child could run why would you spend hours in it?  I mean if it's so easy it should take like and hour maybe, these instances aren't long.

To answer the last lines you wrote here:

Its called "raid" group many more people than you 10-40 people so you dont always get what you want even if a boss drops it.

that means it takes time for you to gather up, but that is what Blizzard want othervise they would not limit the dailyquests to 10.

Then I think :    WE NEED Anarchy Online 2 !!  Come on dev team for AO do it do it !

DIRGE!

Its hard to do anything at all witout a healer in this game is what I remeber after playing it.

I see nothing wrong with the thought of a New FINAL FANTASY ONLINE. All the kids are doing it. Anyhow the MMO was successful, time for something new. I wouldn't be surprised if talks were in the works for the next one. Square will be in this business for a long time to come, why? They produce software. Their name brand is one of the more successful. If Acclaim is still kicking, I think they will be too for years.

And as far as consoles go, no matter what you believe...They tend to be a behind the curve upon release. 6 months later...BURIED UNDER IT. The PC world changes day to day, week to week. Console world changes every 5 years.

If they are goin to make a new one they should learn about some of the misstakes on last online FFXI. I bought the game and after 5 hour I turned it of and uninstalled it. And since there are not may people playing it I cant be that wrong about it.

I love the concept about it though, just wish they would make a new one which is first of all better Grafix wise, and has more PC made controls.

If you had to guess, will the game come out this year?

Next year I believe, I am in beta looks to me like its gonna be the best Pirate game out there.

I've tried several beta this year and also several release.

All I can say is that Tabula Rasa is the most impressive MMO that i've had the chance to play this year. It's fresh, it's very immersive, the graphics are simply gorgeous, the music, the sounds are also well done. Now it's the beta so I won't go with what I like or not, I can simply say that at this stage of it's devellopement, TR is quite nice and really feels like a triple A title.

As for being the number 1 Sci-Fi game, humm... that's all about taste. Some will worship AO, others might make their stand with EvE. I personaly think that each of these games have their own depth and feel. For people thinking that EvE is not worth it's monthly cost.. It's problably not your cup of tea but for me, it's still among one if not the best MMO ever made if you have the patience for it's genre. Trust me, if you get into a nice organised corp, you will see the big pictures. It's not all about dark backgrounds and space. :)

 

 

I have to agree with you I am really happy to be able to Beta test this game its a very good game! Finally something to take focus from other games is comming out soon.

Darn, I am unable to log on forums.. actually to make an account :/

 

though luck, I was hoping to play tonight.

Some ISPs seem to be blocked or something like that, on the Beta forums that is I also keep getting error 500

Middle earth online would be better imo.
