40k has a lot more fans

IM waiting for it myself tho i might get pulled away by Star Wars...

instead of a dungeon make it an entire zone of the city of mordheim.

Doesn't matter which scenario it is of if I am winning or losing - after running about 3 scenarios in a row I get super bored with them.

TBH I dont see much difference in grinding mobs or players in scenarios.

I do like doing the PVP quests in the lakes - but (sadly) rarely ever see anybody in them while doing them.

I wouldnt go back to WOW if it was the only MMO and they payed me to play it.

How did they organise testing?
Sometimes it was RvR battles, sometimes scenarios, sometimes the Elves starting zone and so on.
This way we couldn't complain about how repetitive was the gameplay, because we were allowed access only pieces at a time, and couldn't test the gameplay as a whole.

There you go

Omg, I've seen people on this forum boasting about how Mythic let them them test the whole game and how they were not hiding anything compared to Funcom.  It shows how much BS people talk. 
The people who made such claims should be ashamed of themselves.

they did let people test the whole game (For the most part) they just split it up into sections.

OP makes some good points

WAR's itemization is complete crap (Samey-boring-bland)

The crafting system is pretty useless as well.

Open World RVR should give better xp and renown

server pops need to be more balanced

still, I'm having fun in WAR and will be playing it for a while.

Not enough information is known yet for me to proclaim OMGMUSTHAEV!!11

I will follow it a bit and see what shakes though..

Trillion credit squadron ftw

the thing is tho that in traveler you character didnt really start til after you got all of your abilities (meaning you didnt really level up or increase in abilities all that much)

I would still rather have a mechwarrior/battletech mmo

I had a really cool house in UO -

Bases in COX were cool

I even kind of liked the housing in lotro

Housing is a good money sink

face facts - Destro is the faction of nubs

I KEED I KEED

I play on sylvania and I notice that in pugs your win/loss ratio can be very streaky - one day you will either win a ton or lose a ton with the next day being the complete opposite.

I dont know what kind of pugs you are getting in but destro always has at least 3 or 4 healers it seems like (but like on order how much they heal others is a point of debate).

both

nothing i hate more than getting wtfpwned by witchelves or marauder while 3 WP are oblivious to the fact

 I might have gotten it wrong, but I got the impression that everyone wants jedi's, LA tried to give that in SWG and it backfired as no one seemed to want them there... So now they are doing a new try at it... This time in a era where jedi's acctually can crowd the street without people chasing after them. :/
 
addition: well, wow has the fastest paced combat system of the current games, that would be nice to have. ^^

I followed SWG A lot before launch - Basically their forums turned into a huge EU vs Movie debate on every last thing in the game. I got tired of all the QQing and never actually bothered playing it.

I did like a lot of the ideas pre CU had - To me it was basically UO2 with a starwars wrapper.

Now for a kotor mmo - yeah id like one but tbh unless it is really something amazing I don't know if I will be bothered to try it or not. Id like another sandbox game (that isnt vaporfall)

/waits and sees

I would say Customization - need more looks for gear as well as more dyable items (and better dye colors) - otherwise a lack of play time :D

Pre-cu SWG pet system was so fantastic, it even had multi-universe Creature Handler Guilds ...
It was indeed the best ... 22 pets .... ability to have 3 out at once .... all with cool and unique abilities ... the thrill of taming ( and not killing) that one rare baby pet .... roleplaying with the tricks you could teach them ...
Hunter in WoW was ok .. except that your pet is nothing but a tanking piece of meat ... and everything shrinks to the size of a labrador after taming :)

IT swas a good system but it was basically UOs system slightly modified and put in a star wars wrapper

Not surprising considering how many UO devs worked on SWG

IN UO you could have up to 5 pets out at once -

Pets took 1 to 3 control points (you had 5) so you could take out a Dragon/wyrm and a drake/nightmare

SOme of the pack stuff was fun

I played around with a hellhound pack a frenzied Ostard pack and a imp pack

UO has the best pet system out of any of the MMOs I have played.

MMO's suck unless you have friends to play with. I dont care how good hte game is playing by yourself is no where near as fun as playing with friends.

Tom Hanks Used to Play UO (dont know if he still does or not)

This might change when it goes live but right now Order seems to get their butts kicked way to much.  I have a Runepriest on 1 server and a DoK on another....and for the most part Order doesnt even come close to winning.  I thought it might be due to the players, but most ppl are playing both sides so i wonder if its the character designs.

Are you referring to scenarios or world objective RVR ? In scenarios (order here) we've won far more than we've lost (in my experience). However in world PVP we usually get smashed by pure numbers more than anything else.

qft

Wow isn't original it just takes things from other mmos that worked and made them work a bit better.
