I don't know about that.
WoW was and still is a great game.
Tho Zorn's Fanboyism of WoW does go to the point of being obsessed...

Here's My Main Johari,  level 20 Gladiator on Vaizel at the time of posting.
I also have Fenix, Level 13 Assassin on Zikel, I play with a Friend

You won't be missing anything. As all EN EU servers have 3 to 10 hour login queues lol.

 

You got to be kidding right ?  ALL of them queued  for a minimum of 3 hours?  I dont believe this.

I guess he is kidding. This days have been playing really a lot ... and from time to time also logged out. Max I have been waiting was about 30 mins and this only once. Usually there is no queue or is matter of minutes. But is true I have seen stats for some servers to say about 3 h.
 

Try loging into Zikel at 6pm EST... your queue would be around 2.5 to 3 hours

I was in a 2 hour and 20 minute queue today... Zikel isn't my main server, thank god.... Vaizel is and It doesn't have a queue, least I never had one

-Unique quest NPCs and fixed quest items should exist for all players simultaneously.

Not sure what you mean by that. You're probably repeating your second point.

I know what OP is talking about here.

Where someone clicks on a Item (like say the Treasure map on the Boat), it will disappear when someone that needs it, takes it. The respawn for it, is like 1 minute... that is the problem... the respawn on these are too slow.

So 6 players in a party = 6 minutes just to do that one quest... and that is if no one else grab one on you.

Yea that's irks me too.

They need to up the respawn rate on those to almost instant.... that solve the problem.

Two.

One is a Buddy from work, and plays very causally, plus the lack of internet for a while slowed him, so he hasn't got a toon to 60 yet.

The Other was my Best Friend, about 4 month after Launch.
He still plays, raids 2 nights a week... where as I have quit WoW for a few month now.

yea you can.

whenever i launch the ncsoft launcher (lol) it always shows the games they have, as you know...but suddenly for me, 

there is no aion, no where on the list, not even on the uninstalled list, and i have it installed and played CB and open beta, so i decided to go look in the folder where i know it is installed....the game is there, 14 gigs of it..but no exe file anywhere...

the game has simply disappeared from the launcher with my exe file..

has anyone tried this and fixed it, or is it simply a mystery`? :)

Just FYI, there isn't a EXE file for Aion, the launcher controls that.

This happen to my buddy, He just re-installed the launcher from the Aion install folder and it fixed it.

Mind you this is from the Full Open Beta client downloaded off Fileplanet, you need to run the Setup.exe in the embedded folder.

The way I understand it is most of the raid bosses are open world spawns in the Abyss.

Right Now the only things in the store are Action Figures, which are Non-Combat Pets for 80 points ($1) each, right now.

Aion won't kill WoW.

It might hurt WAR and AoC quite abit tho... won't kill those either.

Not so sure about LOTR... I don't think it  have much impact on it.

I love Aion, but yea I always saw this as a problem, running an alt (or playing thru the starter area, again come live) isn't really any fun. I don't mind running the same stuff again, and blow thru it kinda fast, but still.

Now as for WoW, It does have different starting areas, but you end up the going thru the same zones from 30+
Everybody ends up in STV and Tanaris at some point, then off to outlands, then Northrend...

and im sorry but i must put to light your stupidity about combat the only way you can spam one button with another toggled on is through PA (power armor) in which you have to be careful as you will very quickly drain your energy to empty.  

What are you talking about here...

I have a frost toon and mostly what I do is have Ice Shards (the enemy builder) toggled on and spam Ice Blast 95% of the time.

That is exactly what the OP was talking about... same with fire, or dual swords... just about all the power sets I tried are like that.

hmm... I wanna say Aion here, but, that whole not wanting to have to watch over your back thing, gets in the way.
Granted if you're not in the Abyss, you only have to worry about that in when a rift is open.

Can't think of a sci-fi game like want you are looking for.

 One of the unfortunate side effects of the patch was my character lost all her powers.. in the middle of the tutorial zone (Sorcery based char). GM replied to my ticket stating there was no workaround and I'd have to delete the character. Might not sound a big deal but I also apparently lose the chars name, one which I've used in many previous games (and part of the reason I joined up for headstart, to reserve my favourite char names :-( ).

If you delete your character why couldn't you just just remake him/her with the same name?
I just tried it, and it works fine.

You do know people can have the same character names is CO, everything is based of you global name.
So you don't have to worry about someone taking it.

You can do a lot solo, but are some things you have to go in a group.

I sure some servers are going to have a slight unbalance, but that is any game.

As for the NPC races they a wildcard, you never know what they are going to do.

They can be helping you one moment and then turn on you mid way thru the fight.

Oh Paladins are kinda boring until high levels.... at least when I leveled mine it was

WoW is a fun and easy game to get into, even for non-gamers.

WoW wasn't going to have quests, past the starting areas, from the article I read.
A lot play testers, said after they ran out of quests to do they didn't fell like playing anymore, so blizz made the whole game quest base, based off that.

You can only made so many variations on quests you can do.... but I think they did a good job.
Some latter missions, which are more like mini games, are fun.

AoC was fun for a while but the combat system got old after the newest wore off.

 

Nothing he called a sandbox element, was a sandbox element...

There up, because I just logged out.
