DAoC is killing this poll...  By far the most fun I've ever had in an MMO.  I don't know why I haven't started up my account again.  I guess I'm hoping for a new and better PvP based game!  Fingers crossed for WAR.

Actually there is. You can challenge another player to a duel and you don't die if you lose.

and thats why he/she said, "NO REAL PVP." that can barely be considered pvp.

How does that not be PVP? just cos you don't kill the guy it doesn't mean its not . Combat between  players in its basic sense is PVP regardless of how its initiated or its end result.

PvP is why I play online games.  Dueling is what I do when I get a new item and want to see how well it does before I am put in a "real" PvP situation.

OK.  Nut sure I understand all that.  But it doesn't sound like combat is not very exciting.  More information would be great.  Combat is my big hook.  If it's boring, I won't play. I don't care how much cool customization and features there are are (flying, building cities).  Cause all those neat features are most likely means to start combat (territorial wars) a means to get to combat (flying - even combat in the sky I hear).

OK, so I am dying for the English version to be released (this month!) so I can try this game out.  Regardless of any answers I recieve to my question, I will still give it go!

All I'm wondering is how combat feels.  I can't find any good videos of combat anywhere!  Is it the target/auto-attack/button-mash WoW style?  No targeting Age of Conan type stuff?  What is it???  If anyone can direct me to some videos, or just tell me what it's like, that would be great!!

Thanks.

I got the 14-day trial and have been thoroughly enjoying this game.

I think driving AND fighting makes it a blast.

So, my big question is:  What is it that killed this game?

Does it get worse later?

Does it become repetitive?

What is missing?

what would the mounts be :o im thinking ... armored insects or maybe something hoppy like frogs

Um, you're a Dinosaur...  Maybe a sprint button, but I think that we'll be fast enough already!  And there shouldn't be any humans...  That would make to many people angry.  Things like lions and tigers and bears oh my maybe...

What I am visualizing is a PvP Expansion game.  The PvE would be more about building larger and larger nesting areas for your realm/guild/faction (whatever it would be called) and also overcoming the environmental disasters as in Volcanoes, Tornadoes, and other natural disasters.  The PvP would be an integrated part of the expansion, as you would constantly be fighting for territory against opposing realms/guilds/factions.  Of course there would be PvE combat against wild creatures and non-dinosaurs.  But all the dinosaurs should be PCs.

Any ideas on questing?  I don't like the whole fetch and deliver, or go kill X quests.  PvP rewards could be based off of bringing back the bones of your enemies.

I know me and my 3 other friends would make a raptor gang all the time. BEWARE!!!!.

Sounds like a cool concept, and refreshingly original.

EDIT: would mating be allowed?

Though I might wanna be one of those acid-spitters...

Uhhm, mating?  Maybe 'families' where you actually have an age and 'parents.'  Dunno, lol. 

I think that would be awesome. lol.

I think I'll start designing it....

No unlockables plz. Unlockables belong in single-player RPGs.  A totally skill based, claw-swiping, teeth-gnashing quest for dominion over the different areas.  Hehe, would be cool.

Of course they'll succeed.  They already have before!

Dark Age of Camelot had extremely thrilling PvP.  Just the fun of it alone could hold someone to the game, let alone the rewards and ranks gained through it.

Just my opinion.

Guild Wars doesn't count because you end up paying near the same amount as any other P2P MMO if you stay up to date.  They release an expansion every 6 months which cost between $50-$60.  You do the math.

 

I play WoW as my P2P.  When I get bored I hope over to Kingdom of Loathing, an awesome and hilarious browser-based game.  So, if you're not a graphics freak, try it out!  kingdomofloathing.com works.

Stop crying. Guild Wars has no monthly free, so it is f2p.

Eh, I don't know where I was "crying" in that post.  I enjoy Guild Wars alot.  I haven't bought Nightfall because Factions wasn't my thing.  But I had a great time in the original campaign and love the strategic PvP.  And BTW, what do you classify as F2P?  Paying for ANY bit of a game makes it NOT F2P, immediately discounting Guild Wars.  You're thinking of No Monthly Fee, big difference my friend.

Sounds like you've deffinately only done the starting instance and starting zone...  Like the person before me said, it opens up afterwards.  Just keep playing, you'll see.

Anyone else all of a sudden not able to get on  guildcafe.com??
