SWTOR a little too much solo?
General Discussion « Star Wars: The Old Republic 11/26/09 10:11:26 AM
Hi, let me start by saying that a love what i've seen so far in swtor, i love the classes, graphics and that it has full vo. I have three friends of mine that are all going to play Sith and we're all going to play different classes. What i'm worried about is when we level up we won't be abel to play a lot to do together other than the flashpoints. That we all will be playing our different story with our own companions. What do you think, i'm totaly wrong here? Sorry if this has been posted before. |

I disagree. FFXI would not be the great game that it is without forced grouping. There's hundreds of MMO's that you can solo in... feel free to play one of those. No need to destroy one of the great things about FFXI just to cater to the people who don't like grouping. Hopefully SE will realize this with FFXIV. You can't make an MMORPG that's satisfies both crowds. Sure you can have solo content and group content in the same game, but that's not the same as saying you've pleased both types of people. It's not about being able to solo vs. being able to group, it's about being able to solo vs. HAVING to group. Don't confuse the two. There's a world of difference between games that have solo & group content and those that have forced grouping... the community being a very notable one. Well i don't really think this is the way SE thinks. They want to make an apealing game for all players, because thats where the money is. SE has already told us that they are looking at games like wow, war and aoc. All does games has both solo and group content, and i think that what SE it trying to achieve. The thing a loved with FFXI was the grouping, the thing i hated was to have to wait for 1 h just to find one. If you have the quality of FFXI grouping system and throws in solo content that would be awesome. |

I want SE to reward people who play in partys but not force them which FFXI is doing today. And if you have good solo play and good party play the only think you need to do to make people play in partys is make it faster. If a person wants to level to max level fast party should be the way, but not in anyway forced. I would also like to see two kinds of quests the casual and the epic where as you can solo casual quests but need a party for the epic ones. |

Now i'm going to be brave inough to this dark part of the forums to ask a question. I don't know if i will leave here alive but i must know. What is so great about Darkfall? The fans of this game seems very hostile and quite frakly scares the crap out of me. But i am brave enough to ask; why do you like the game? Let's start with my backround and what i think is a good MMORPG. Now Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games is a huge genre. Like sports games. You might like American Football games but hate golf games. Now I've played around 40 MMOs in my time my first was Final Fantasy XI and i'm now waiting for Warhammer Online. And yes i have played World Of Warcraft but didn't like it (only played to lv39). And a lot of free asian games. And what i've learned is that you should not compare these games with each other. You don't go from Final Fantasy XI to Guild Wars thinking "Man this is not like FFXI at all and that is bad because it is not in FFXI". It's like sports games you don't go from a golf game to a Football (soccer) game thinking you're going to play a golf game. But i just don't see anything i like about Darkfall! I'm don't like the graphics, i don't like the animations, i don't like the sound and the gameplay just doesn't seem fun for me. There is nothing i like about this game. And there seems to be so many people defending it (mostly in a hostile way). So i'm asking you: What is so great about Darkfall?

I understand you problem and i agree with you that the elfs are gay. But if you're looking for a big musculine tank you won't fiind them on the order side, KoTBS (empire tank) was awesome and i would play one if they will come back. But they're not musciline, just awesome. |

PvP in this game seems awfully scripted
General Discussion « WAR (Warhammer Online) 8/10/08 9:20:36 AM
Well you can't go and have a huge battle in a PVE area (like a leveling spot or quest area) there are places for pvp. But at the end game zones the pvp areas are alot larger than the pve areas so there's lots of places to battle. I.E the Chaos vs Empire end zones, the pvp area is a huge city with burning houses. Looks awesome

Why does this game have so much hype?
General Discussion « WAR (Warhammer Online) 7/26/07 6:02:21 AM
The thing i love most about warhammer is mythic, and the way they give us information about warhammer. I've hyped games before but those games never really showed or talked much about the new stuff they brings to the game, and when i started playing they were a dissapointment. Warhammer on the other hand showes us nearly everything, they have 5 min videos about the new stuff about the game and pauls video blog. They show us this becaus they know it's good and new. You just get the feeling they're not bullshiting you, and the feeling that they're trying hard not to be crap! |

Anofalye your view on an mmog is imo as wrong as it gets. You are playing this game with thousand of other player, why would you only think about yourself? Don't you want to work together and meet new people? Could it be that you just want to get to max level and get the best gear to make people envy you? Sure WoW is build around the player and the player only, everything you do you do for yourself. Warhammer on the other hand is build around the war in the game, you do quests for the war you craft stuff for the war.
This game is about working together and if you're not up for it then it's not the game for you, even if it had 100% PVE |

The only resemblance you can see with WAR and WoW is that they have orcs, dwarf, humans and elves. Altough the WoW races dont resemblance the WAR races one bit (In the way they think and act.) And maybe that the grafiks "looks like WoW". As we all know WoW was PvE based and WAR will be PvP based, but you can PvE the whole game if you like that. So read about the gameplay to see the differences between games. |

We'ze Da Boyz ar' rekruitin more orcs an' gobba fa' our tribe!
Now for something my boss wants to say: Name: Da Boyz Realm/Faction/Alliance: Destruction (For Da Greenest only!) Website: http://www.brighterthanrain.com Recruiting: Orciez and Gobbos only! Join or Die “Me be Scuby. Da luckest uv all da gobboz. Me’ze be indestruccible, so’z me bin aroun’ a goodun uva long time. Anywayz dis be da camp uv da boyz, da baddest orcz aroun’. Now, yer mebee wonderin stuff like why yer care, but I’ze tell yer, a greenskin lik’ yer ard self won’ nevvur find a betta ‘ome. Let me take yerz on a toor.” "My name be Rak Twoblades. That be the head gobbo 'round here. He give yas a good toor of da camp, and yoo'ze like it, stay! Of course I only be talkin to the true greenskins out there! I'll let 'im git back to givvin youse that toor...if he be actin up, or stealz anythin, just let me know. The squigs been gettin mighty 'ungry." Da Boyz are a greenskin guild devoted to the pursuing of orciness. This includes the destruction of all non greenskins (eventually), most notably those of short stature and great beard. It also includes being the biggest and baddest of all the orc tribes. Finally, we aim to have fun being typically orcy in our lack of empathy, care, sanity and predictability. (In character obviously. We are all (relatively) sane and nice people in real life.) This guild aims to be a haven for all of you, who, like me, love the Greenskins and a good Waagghh!!! The guild will consist of orc type roleplaying, which means simply...there are no rules! Da Boyz will focus on the 3 C's of orc life: Combat, Combat, and more Combat! As a guild, Da Boyz plans to lead many raids and participate in the war against the Humies, stunties, and elfies. PvP/RvR will be the main focus of the guild, as will roleplaying. However, this does not mean that you need to be an expert role-player to join. Anyone who wishes to join can join, as long as you attempt to rp a least a little and have a positive attitude. To repeat myself again, Rping will be encouraged...but not strict. Would it really be orcish to make rules and procedures? For now, to join, just state your interest in this thread. From there, head over to the roleplaying forums and participate in any rp with the heading "Da Boyz". That way members can better get to know you and vice versa. Structure: Da Boyz are structured on a simple basis. Might is right. The toughest orc is in charge. The next baddest is next and so on. Below the orcs are the goblins. These are run on the same basis, but sneakiness and treachery are also used often in attaining rank within their ranks. Further down are everything else. This includes trolls, squigs, wolves and boars, which are used as property (and often food) by the orcs and goblins. Finally, too low to even be considered a part of everything, are the snotlings and vermin squigs, which run rampant in the camp, getting in the way, stealing things, breaking things and making nasty messes on your boots when you step on one. Aside from the normal order is the shaman squig. This massive and hairy squig is the tribe’s mascot and good luck totem. Without it, the tribe would surely fall apart. Every so often, the shaman squig will eat a goblin. On very rare occasions it spits them back out. Any goblin spat out is marked by the gods and will become a shaman. On the even rarer occasion it eats an orc, the orc will also become a shaman. Due to the size of the squigs throat, it is actually unable to swallow an orc, meaning many orcs marked as a shaman are less than impressive in power. Shamans are all equal, and do not have a position of rank. However, being the blessed of the gods, they are held in high honour by everyone. If you want to advance within Da Boyz then you must simply defeat the orc above you. This will take the form of an unarmed (ish) duel, where the two greenskins will beat the living snot out of each other. Afterwards the tribe will vote on who wins based on role playing talent and overall orciness. Current Hierachy of Da Boyz: Warboss: Me (Rak) Bosses Advisor: Big 'Unz: Grunge (Luy22), Thrakka (Wyvern), Kazgut (Kazgut) Gobbo Boss: Scuby (Bob) History: Skrom was an orc. One day after a battle he got hit in the head by something large and blunt, and fell unconscious. His tribe, being as they were, left him lying naked after stealing his stuff, and carried on without him. Skrom woke up a while later. Finding himself alone, he began his wanderings of the world. Being quite large, he gathered a rag tag bunch of greenskins until it formed a small new tribe. Also being rather eccentric, Skrom kept changing the name of his tribe to attempt to find a name favoured by Gork and Mork. As no one knew what he was calling the tribe, they knew themselves simply as ‘Da Boyz’. Eventually the tribe found a large squig sitting on a hill. Taking the strange creature in, they suddenly got lucky. The massive, fat and incredibly hairy squig became known as the shaman squig, and is the most important thing there is to the tribe. Shortly after this, Skrom disappeared. Why, it is not known. Where, it is not known. However, the tribe likes to believe their old boss has gone to see Gork and Mork, and that it was time for a new boss to lead the tribe. Then disaster struck. The shaman squig was stolen by a jealous rival. Without it, the tribe would fall apart. They lacked a boss for the moment too. If any of the competitors for the title of warboss wanted to gain reputation, they must act correctly through this situation, and more importantly, save the shaman squig!

A question to all you wow fan boys
General Discussion « WAR (Warhammer Online) 4/21/06 6:07:54 AM
I have a question to all you wow fan boys. Why are you people always comparing mmorpg games to wow? It was not the first mmo ever made. Every where you go you se wow fan boys say "This game sucks cus it's not like wow" and "Why can't you do this i can do it on wow" and so on. And why oh why are you angry when you say this is a wow clone? I myself don't think it's a wow clone.

i dont think it would be fun if they put in a new class that starts over from lv1, cuz then many players will start over and the players that are at lv50 wont have anyone to play with but what i think will be cool is if you could uppgrade your class is some way, like if you play like a warrior you could uppgrade him to a knight or if you play like a paladin you could make him a crusader..... i just think it would be cool.... |
