The graphics and animation of War is just a huge turn off for me. AOC is by far the best game coming out before summer.

Your so right Avery, the mounts steal the show for me...Love the speed the different attacks, how could you not love the way that horse kicked those guys down...? really really cool stuff...

I can't believe they deleted the scion of set and the lich!!!  I understand that they melded the two priests into one, and the lich apparently was not fun.... but this game didn't have a lot of character diversity to begin with...  so now there is even less.

The illusion of this game is crumbling more and more as dates are being pushed back, and content is being restricted...  I'm starting to see the strict niche starting to shine.

Honestly I think the press releases that funcom released were largely a turnoff ot the gaming community, which is a suprise since funcom is a solid company.

Despite the changes to AOC I still feel the game will have more than enough to keep me busy and satisfied for a couple years..if not more..

If it is just another level based MMO they may as well put it out to pasture today,

We really need for a game company  to come up with something truely different or in the least go back to skill based RPG style MMO's.

Story line and SKILL not levels and carrots...

Pretty good read, Great find Avery!

Very good 10,000 BC would be why...

After responding to some recent posts asking about the state of the game, asking what it would take to get people back etc..  I have to question the decision not to rollback or provide classic servers. 

The reason I'm questioning that NOW is that SOE seems surprised that they've added some stuff from pre-nge and still the vets haven't come back to the game.

What I want to say to the decision makers is that vets by the thousands told you in 2005 they didn't want the NGE with bits and pieces of their old stuff thrown back in.  They said the same thing in 2006, and people are still saying in now. 

If you ask people what they want, and they tell you pre-cu servers,  when you don't listen, why are you surprised that they haven't come back?

Someone must have thought that adding back pre-cu bits to the NGE was a winning strategy.  The problem with that is the players you want back told you they didn't want that, and you didn't listen, again.

The more I think of the whole track record of this game, the more convinced I am that I'm just going to continue enjoying myself elsewhere until someone else comes out with a StarWars MMO.

Has the rating been settled yet or will that be sorted out just before release?  I saw a video where it contained partial nudity and think the rating was 'M"-Mature.  I'm wondering if this game will end up with a rating for Adults Only.

Will you be able to keep your beta charactors when the game launched in March?

Although not one of the most popular MMOs out there, Galaxies DOES deserve to be in the 'most improved game of 2007' category. Why on earth is Lord of the Rings there? It's just been released! 

Although not rolled back to pre-cu, and regardless of the history - Galaxies in its current form is a shadow of the NGE that destroyed the game back in 2005. Many old features have returned and alot has changed since. So it at least deserves to be here.

 

Most improved? I think NOT!

I dont get the feeling it will delay again...BUT if it did I would back them all the way!

Honestly after Vanguards release who could ever complain about delays!!

It is kinda interesting, as I read it I got the feeling that they were putting in different flavors from each race to help make your Assassin a little different from the others..

Like for example you could go all dark skills for a Stygian style assassin or whatever..

Not sure about healing though....

I got nothin!!
