if u guys dig around u would notice that most of the other card companies are gonna drop  supporting shaders  3.0 and such for their cards but for nvidia. they gonna develop their own shaders as far as i know which means more problems with those cards and new gen games which are more sensitive to your hardware than older games

ive had radeion cardes before and never had anything good from them they all either wouldnt play the game right or didnt support this or that.

all u guys do is talk about performance dont forget about support adabity and just plain normal use before u judge a card.

nvidia cards have always been more expensive but in the long run they have better support.they work with nearlyall games ive yet had a problem with a nvida card not working with a game.

im currently using a old desktop my newer one fried during a powre surge. its only able to use pc1 no express or agp so best card i can use is a nvida geforce 6200 and yet i can play AoC at medeium graphics most the time with only 1 gig ram and card is only 256 ram.

so for all those just going this or that sucks before u make a decision remember the track record of the companyies u buying your card from

Again, I'm not attacking anyone personally but consider the damage World of Warcraft has caused. It was such a hit ($$$) that every other, more complex MMO tried to emulate it. In effect, dumbing down the genera.

I'm sorry guys, but there is a reason why WoW was so popular. It was a great game. I tried playing Everquest long before WoW was even thought about, and I couldn't stand it. Friends tried getting me into other 2d ORPGs and I didn't like them, where later WoW had me immediately.  People like to say WoW was a fluke, they are wrong. It was the first decent MMORPG where everything else was just plain HORRIBLE.

sigh fanboi service

AOC is not hurting the mmo buisness if any game is its WoW that is its a watered down game that realy isnt very good if u have played enough mmo games.

There is a lot of complaining about the payment features for this game, but no one really seems to give a clear explanation for it.  Talking about things like "rebirth" and the different "cards" don't mean anything to non-players without a description.  So, how about explaining some things:

1.  Do you NEED a premium membership to play the game from beginning level to last player level?

2.  How many FREE character slots do you get?

3.  What is there in the game that you NEED to pay for that can't be achieved through gameplay?

There is a difference between needing something to PLAY vs. needing something to COMPETE.  Casual players may be fine with games that move at a slower pace for non-premium members.  BUT, if you can't play several parts of the game without paying for it, then that's not quite as well-recieved.

u can get max lvl for free but unless u rebirth(u have to buy it) u wont beable to compete with the oes who do and most wont want u in team

for the main story line u have to by 30 day packages to do it also storage is very limited and also u need preim package just to have a shop

The game looks interesting enough to try, but this thread has convinced me to stay away. Thanks for the discussion.

this game isnt worth the trouble to u anyway to get the full  fun from the game u need to spend upwards of more than a p2p game.

(It costs, I think, $10 to be a premium member, a month.  Then there are rebirths, I think, $15 for each card. 

This rounds up to $25 a month, assuming one rebirths every month.  If twice every month, then $40, if thrice, then $55, and lastly, four a month, a whopping $70.)

Ummm... First off, you only need a premium card to rebirth, so that is $10, and if you want to maximize on getting all possible AP then you won't end up rebirthing for for 15 weeks which is a little less then 4 months making the game only about $2.5 a month. (Note: this is based on the fact you still get atleast 1 AP until you reach the age of 25 and then you can rebirth, another reason you might want to wait until that time is because you can only rebirth 20 times) so... if you calculate that all out over the course of 6 years, you end up spending a whole $200... but that is for 6... years...

once u get to lvl 18 and do all the quests there not many quests left if u dont get a preium service all u do is grind games not worth to even rebirth once cause if u look at it there is no conent realy if u dont p2p it

when a game is advertised as competely free u know there gonna be some cash shop items and such but atleast 65% of the game is accessible. yet with mabogini u can only access about 35% the game if u dont pay anything and the prices are still redicous on any scale if i wanted to pay hat much for a f2p game i would just save for a new comp for age of conan

You only need to buy the rebirth card every month or two.  As for the storyline, you don't have to do it, it's optional.  This game is much cheaper than p2p games, so stop crying.

your competely wrong.

i admit i enjoyed the game some but nexon is to money grubbing to me so i dont play this anymore.

here are my reasons

1. everything including main story/shop selling has to be bought from item mall

2. once u get to lvl 18 the time to lvl praticaly doubles.

when u see most games thats f2p u think well u know its got a cash shop but u can enjoy 90% of the game without a cash shop items but not with mabogini. by time your charcter gets to age 18 u get 0ap by ageing also ur stats for lvling are low.

to do the story line quests u have to buy one of their cash shop servces for 30 days and its more expensive than most p2p games.( if i wanna have to spend 15$ a month to play a f2p game ill just go pay for conan)

the game is enjoyable but u have to spend to much just to get what other f2p games give out for free or for way less.

looking at the game now from beta to retail the population is slowly going down. currently not even half the number of people play as when it first went retail.

my advice try it out but if u plan to spend 0$ on it u out of luck just spend your money on conan and such.

this game is going from a global server to regional servers like u got diffent areas for wow. unless someoen in stats picks it up u wont see it again

wow sounds like they realy got crappy network protection then

assasin the only problem I had was no players, get players in game and  the game be fine.. no players= why bother. You gotta attract players.

 

and saying or thinking that they will come to your game on your own , you are mistaken.

 

AoC, TcoS, WAR all coming out soon..you want to be in that competition...  you need to try and act fast while there is a huge lull in the mmo market and a lot of players are playing nothing at all or miserable in the games they in. having players in game makes all the difference in the world..

 

let the noobies cry.. atleast they will stick around and play if other players are there. and if they crying on forum atleast you are getting feedback.

 

sorry I won't come back til I find word of the game having a population.

the game cant get a population if people not willing to come back and play some cause of the low pop

playing mabogni right now like the game but nexon has made nearly every good feature of the game part of a monthly servce so need to find a good game that has a excelent crafting system but doesnt screw u over by making  eventualy have to pay something just to do basic things like player shop.

i took a 2 day break to get soem rest gold but today i try to log in the game stops on loading screen nothing changed on my computer so is anyone else having problems right now.

before when i had this problem it was the servers where down but the loging server was up.

u do not need to use a credit card to sign up if u have a cd key from buying th game imput it thenit gives u a options of 1 month immortal that is what u choose.

if u put a credit card on there then when the 1 month runs out it will charge your credit card lots of games do that so auran is not frauding anyone.

u have to forgive them they saw it was a pvp game so downloaded it and when they saw their was no easy way to pawn people but by actualy trying they gave up after 2 games.

form admins lock this thread here its gonna turninto a flame fest if its not. even im tempted to rag on them

the game has a very long learning curve i been playing since i went f2p and im still finding things i didnt know. if u onna play for a hour then trash a game dont post it on a forums fury is a good game. it stillneeds work but what game doesent for its first year out.

also read some guides dont expect to play a pvp game and be number 1 after playing just 2 games

 great post but u forgot to mention the one thing really skill wise that needs hard twinking and that speed. right now as far as i know there isnt a speed cap and roots dont last long enough and also people becoem resistant to them. so u see some games peole go +80-90% speed and with just regular accelrate u never catch them and they kill u easy

 As you progress in the game you will learn that there are skills that can slow runners up to 35% , you can use Dragnet and pull them to you  as they try and escape ,  Raid will rush you to them and hit them creating slowing , theres lull ,sleep , stunn ,freeze and many others. Everything in this game can be countered and recountered and countered again with a  vast amount of variables . It really takes time to figure out how to counter the next trick someone has up their sleeve .  Just when I figure out how to deal with skills that keep you from healing I have to turn around and deal with some form of charge manipulation or ground effect . Keep at it and you will discover many things to add to your arsenol . I know what you mean , I spend 75 % of my time dealing with runners  and they allways go for the HP power ups which I find annoying .

with the patch on 11th speed people will start to cry that their armor cant save them now so will be better.

and ive tried all that dragnet has terrain issues right now and the speed debuffs normaly dont last long enough for u to catch them.

only reason im ragging on speed peopel is cause i like to versitle my builds in diffent ways with diffent skills gets boring tohave tohave dragnet/reaver/ any speed debuff on any build but for healer

lol already? this patch is 11 days past due ><

u have to give them some credit their company nearly went bankrupt so the company is rescructering give it soem time. this is a major  balance cause before this patch u could fight and never get to attack someone due to armor procs. now allthey gotta do is balance speed and ill start playing more again.
