I read hardly anything, and I'm not coming back to this Topic, all I have to say is:

ALTS

I've always wanted to play this, but the lack of a non-invite trial hurts it I think. Alot.

No, LOTRO I think is actually the game he is looking for.
EQ1 and EQ2 both are not simple games and are not geared towards those that are looking for an "online console" game.[/b][/quote]

I tried LOTRO. I liked it, but it didn't have much of a draw to me. The combat is really slow paced. I've just had a personal vendetta against launchers for ages. I hate that CoX makes me accept the EULA every time I play. But no, I'm not looking for a hardcore MMO to get into 8 hours a day, I'm saving that for WAR. (Although my casual gaming is usually in between the norm of Casual and Hardcore players)

And yes, I made the title while annoyed at the interface, I probably should have worded it better. Like I posted before, the style of the game just doesn't fit my personal tastes. A large number of little annoyances made it so. (Cryptic lore and unnaturally fast mob speed after a pull being two large ones...)

Finally, why does the necro get animals that aren't dead? He's an animator of corpses, not a beastmaster... All of the Necromancer's apprentice summons look lame, except the diseased servant makes up for it in awesomeness. :D

You can't trial twice. But you CAN try the trial for CoX on a general NCsoft account if you haven't done CoX before.

[b]It seems to me that you aren't here for actual help, you just want to tell how bad you think it is. [/quote]

I do really WANT to like the game. And I don't hate it. I have found that I am very picky with interface and controls, and it hits a couple nerves with that. (Although like I said, it could be MUCH worse.)

And honestly if a game that takes mere seconds to run a file scan then maybe a browser based game would be more to your liking

/1 or /2 or /3 - these are usually your level chats and also good place to ask questions and find groups. Once you hit space bar, it'll show you the chat your talking in. Should show up as /10-20 chat or /20-30 chat depending on your level. Right click the chat box and go to chat options to see which ones you belong to. Usually, try to stay within your own level chat.

Unfortunately, for some reason, I couldn't use the channels except /ooc. Maybe Trial accounts can't?

I don't think EQ2 is for me. I'm going to go back to CoX for awhile I guess. The game seems decent, I just personally didn't like it. I'm gonna try out the Necro til the trial runs out (WHY?! WHY DOES HE SUMMON A BAT T_T), but I don't think I'd buy it.

Come up with a better insult, or whatever you intended that to be.

Check your spam box?

I have a US account, and I'd be more than happy to send anyone free trials.

Send me a PM is the best and fasted way to reach me.

I dislike both a single left click and a double left click, but double is better since I can target w/o attacking that way.

And no, the check doesn't take too long, but I like to be able to open my games quickly. If it takes too long for one to start, I'll start considering other, quicker loading, games on my PC.

I have too many options.

I'm on the trial right now (Looking for a game to get WoW's taste out of my mouth, and to kill some time till WAR comes out next year.) and I like the mechanics I've read about, HOWEVER, when I'm ingame, I just am hit with a tremendous sense of being overwhelmed. Between the 25 mins I spent exploring the gigantic options menus and the 10 I spent trying to figure out how to ask question in the global chat... thing (Never did find out how), I am confused.

I started a Fae Ranger (God, I despise the Fae, but it's all I get...) and is there anyway to make your attack start ranged w/o having to use hotkeys? That seems like a horrible system! And is there a way to make the right mouse button useful in combat? I mean making the Right click start attack, instead of relying on the stupid double clicks.

Anyway, the interface is being annoying because it isn't explained that well, and interface, I found out somewhere between my 2nd and 3rd foray into f2p asian MMOs w/ only click to move, is one of the most important parts of MMOs to me.

Edit: Does it have to check files everytime it launches? That sucks.

Me N' mah spikey lad budda' iz gonna be on da RP! Open RvR is fer gitz.

I am just starting the Trial myself after struggeling in Open beta with my non-upgraded PC too. +2 Gigs of RAM and a large skip in Video Card quality later, I'm going to try it out again.

New MMOs are hard. I wouldn't mind having some mentors too.

What server?

I don't understand it, because it flies in the face of normal MMOs, but the pet class, Squig Herder, consistantly comes up in last place in the popularity polls I see on forums.

This was horrible on Warhammer Alliance, it's only more horrible on MMORPG.com.

I can't even understand 1/2 of what he's saying...

I used to despise PvP. I always thought it was broken, boring, and un organized.

Then I saw how WAR is coming, and realized how that's only WoW's PvP, and all other games that just have PvP added on.

Now, I'm looking forward to WAR and I realize how Great PvP looks like it can be when done right.

WoW is ok... but I totally lost 100% of my motivation after being on a private server for about an hour. I:
-Flew on a mount
-Walked around in the highest tier gear
-Learned all the warrior attacks
-Finished a talent tree
-Slaughtered everyone in Gnomeregan as a capped character for revenge.

I have officially done everything I WAS playing retail WoW to do. No reason to play anymore.

If you are masochistic and somehow like a game who's enjoyment will sharply peak and decline based almost entirely on other people once you cap out (But only until AFTER you've invested countless hours and dollars soloing,playing with the friends you actually like, and partying in PUGs that, unlike endgame, are not mandatory to stay in), go ahead I guess. I'm waiting for WAR, and will celebrate the end of organized raids. (City sacking, can't wait)

Wow, I've always wanted to play witha pad, the game was practically MADE to be used like that. Cool.

At first, I agreed with you. Then I realized why I'm "staring" at this game that I probably won't actually buy (A trial is a whole different thing), it's because I need something to stare at until WAR comes out.

I agree, it's really fresh and fun.....for the first week or so. The game doesn't last thought, at all.

That's pretty much how I feel about it. I played beta for about 2 weeks. Then I came back to try the launch... got to level five again and said "Meh".

People say it really does feel like a War, but I don't see it. I don't think that an occasional mob that is spawned in with a spaceship drop animation instead of the normal "pop up out of nowhere" one gives that feeling.

My biggest problem is that you either shoot... or use Logos. At least as much as I've seen, the guns don't seem to have any special skills or anything. It effectively makes everyone a mage. Just some mages use bigger guns.

The game is ok, and It's better than ALOT of MMOs, but it's still kinda Meh to me.

I think the issue here is the word massive being relative to each person.

I don't think GW is an MMORPG. It is/was a new genre that just isn't yet big enough to have it's own acronym yet. Or ever.

I KNOW Diablo isn't.

This argument is like a British guy and an American guy arguing over what football is...
