Ok OP the concept you need to grasp is called capitalism, those with all the money get all the stuff. It was mentioned first page but not since then.

WoW did not get on ESPN because it was the best PVP MMO or the best overall MMO or most fun MMO to watch, while it may be one or all of those things, the ONLY reason WoW is becoming a E-Sport is that it has 11 million, or however many now, subscribers. ESPN will only show games that have large fan bases so they get people to watch it, that plus Blizzard is extremely rich and can put alot of money towards it.

That is the one and only reason it got on TV, that's not bashing WoW which is a fine game, so stop the fanboism and realize the facts money runs the world and blizzard has a awful lot of it

Well a little over 7 hours of waiting, but its been worth it, hope you guys had some luck getting in

Give em a break, they're a smaller company low on cash with thousands of people trying to buy their game, and after all this is simply a preorder, its not their fualt you feel you need to preorder the game really really badly, the point of beta is for people to improve the game, so they really dont have to give a crap who gets in as long as 10,000 people do. Its not their job to make beta a wonderful experiance for you, for that you gotta wait for the real game

 

Since they are paying for it so naturally people also have demands, makes perfect sense. If it was free, then yeah, but it is not.

Ya but its a freaking preorder  with the chance to get into beta coming with that. Remember your paying for the game that will be released in september, thats what the preorder money is going towards, they just need beta testers and figured paying costumers are a great place to start

It will be up in twenty minutes.

 

Yes, they put up like 15 different times for 15 different timezones, and they typo'd on all 15 times. You're right.

wasn't that just some guy who converted it, so they stickied it for him, i mean you never know... :P

 quickly read through this, if its 20.00 gmt u all have to wait another hour. stockholm is gmt +2 in the summertime

 

Site said 21:00 Swedish time (GMT+2), so it should be up now.

ah ok, someone earlier said that it was 8 pm gmt so he wasnt right, i apologize :)

So are you saying its coming at 4 EST  or just that 2 EST wasn't right?

haha well we we'll see who gets through first, i feel bad for the poor suckers who dont have FIOS or another fast internet connection, DSL would be killing me now :P

But if i get through i'll take a picture of it and post it so people who didn't can see the prices (just hit printscreen) hopefully anyone who gets through will too

ya i just got through to the main store, still the old preview, funny how we all got through at the same time

question now is who's F5 fingers gonna get tired first

ya, i just got through but according to the tabs they're still 403 forbidden

I have 7 tabs, but i think we killed it, i'm going to say though i think from all this traffic going into the server prettty much no one is getting in, so i doubt they're sold out yet

Moment of truth is here, good luck gents and ladies

yep, but just think while you're all busy clicking that link or hovering your mouse over it to see what it is, i'm hitting F5 for my chance to buy.

So less competition for me

OMG OMG I GOT IT, WOOOOOOT

Just try this link it seems to work better, just click here

oh guess i just read it wrong, and i do have a life i just dont have one today, nothing like hitting F5 on a nice summer vacation day :P

ya but they said it would open at 20:00 stockholme time, soo i guess they meant 21:00 good news is it seems the traffics lighter now dont see to be having any overload errors anymore

ya is it even on sale yet? i've gotten into the normal store multiable times and there isn't any option to buy, but its 20:39 in stockholme right now soo...

Ya SWG isn't to bad of a game, btw hey obraik how are things going over on chilistra? EH still going strong?. But as pre-cu is now long gone, and the game you are looking for seems to be the dream game, one that most gamers want but no developer seems to develop. So if you want a game that has all that stuff i am sorry to say their isn't one.

I would say check out darkfall, you can learn any skill with any character, FFA PVP, but you lose faction if you attack your allies, guild wars, no classes, and a FPS.

It sounds to good to be true, but it looks like it might pull through. No gurantee if the game will ever come out though.

Do not buy this game its a joke. I convinced 6 of my real life friends to buy it at launch day. After 4 weeks, we managed to make level 40 and we decied to stop subscriptions altogether. It has no content beyond level 30+ You have been warned. All you do is click click click and more click until the mobs dead. You CALL THIS gameplay???

 

MMORPGs with gameplay described as "click, click, click and more click until the mobs dead"

WoW - check

EQ/EQ2 - check

CoH - check

EVE-O - check

SWG - check

Vanguard - check

LOTRO - check

FFXI - check

Second Life - nope

Guild Wars - check

UO- check

TR - check

Okay, so we have now narrowed down the games you CAN enjoy without clicking mobs dead.....enjoy Second Life!

Ohh and no content past 30?   I'm 32 atm and have been doing content for the last 32 lvls.  If there is no content past 32, please, tell me what the quests are in my quest log or how you managed to grind the last 20 lvls...off of mobs in CPs?  There were no quests in the zones past Pools?  Oh, that's right....there just isn't as much...which they already said was being worked on.  It's a shame you got so far ahead of the curve that you got ahead of the content additions.  I guess working on the other classes till they catch up to you is out of the question since.....well you seem to hate about anything but Second Life anyway because of the whole clicking to kill process.   Good luck!  I hear SL is an okay game where you can even create your own content.

Damnit! I hate to go off the freaken deep end, but you people are so damn ignorant.

 

-YOU-  -STILL-  -DO-  -NOT  -GET-  -IT-

Here, i'll use caps lock.

 

 

THERE IS NOTHING MORE TO THE GAME BUT CLICKCLICKCLICK KILLKILLKILL

 

Do you understand now? There is nothing MORE to do. All the games you listed have ALTERNATIVE means of enjoyment to do. Also a few have meaningful combat where you need to make choices. VG and EQ2 are perfect examples of that. FFXI has skill chains, etc. Combat is MORE indepth in them then TR -EVER- will be. It's a wannabe shoot 'em up FPS, but without the FPS elements. It's all turn based clever design garbage.

 

 

{ Mod Edit }

 

Hes right there is nothing good from tr combat. YOU target banes then click your mouse 1,000,000 times till the banes die. Omg mouse click fest Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive never seen such a bore combat system in my life, i fall asleep just by clicking my mouse on a bane 4,000,000 times till it dies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol, serously this is not an mmorpg.

Wow humanity is doomed.

Ok i will try to be respectful in this post but it is incredibly hard after seeing such amazing displays of idoicy.

I had a level 61 hunter in WoW, the amazing stratagy i used to get him their, i knew how to hit the 1-9 keys, until my fingers where numb or the mob was dead, and when the mob died, i moved to the next one. Rinse and repeat, 99% of WoWs quests told you to go out and hit the 1-9 keys untill X mobs where killed.

Same exact thing with other games i have played such as, LOTRo, Vanguard, SWG, Lineage II, Guild Wars, Hellgate: london, Everquest II, Eve online (though this was one of the better ones), DAoC, COV/H and a few other MMOs i have played that i dont remember the names of. Every single on of them had a unique feature, i was called hitting the 1-9 keys untill a mob died, except Eve which added a little bit of verity (still was boring as anytihng though)

Their was nothing more to wow then click click click, let me illustrate,

To kill a mob, you clicked it, and then hit the 1-9 keys untill it died.

To do a quest you Clicked on a guy and then went out and killed X mobs by doing the killing method i described above.

To craft you first went out, and Clicked on stuff to mine/harvest it. then you clicked in the crafting window untill the amount of the item you needed was made.

To PVP you Clicked on the other player, and then used the 1-9 keys untill he was dead

To raid you went in a dungoun and killed mobs and did quests which i showed the process to above.

So that pretty much sums up WoW game play, oh and grinding reputation, that is just more Clicking even worse cause its the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. and leveling to sixty required killing about 75,000 mobs even with quests, so that amounts to alot alot of Clicks.  So please explain to me how WoW is not clicking.

Btw  vanguard is the same exact thing if you want to use that as a example, though vanguard is my second favorite MMO i have ever played after TR.

PS. i bolded the words clicking to help you see them
