The thing was we was in combat still. I had 4 monsters I was fighting .. one would die and I would regen to full..... I guess what I am asking is does this happen at all levels. Out of combat regen that fast is cheesy but could be dealt with .. in combat was lame.

Please don't try to defend the game you love to me, I understand you like it. I just curious if this is the case at all levels. Out of combat is different than 5 monsters hitting you while you almost instantly regen after each one dies.

Any info on this?

I don't think you understand what I am saying. At the level we was it was basically COMPLETELY healed to full almost instant. Do you not see anything wrong with that? That is cheesy. My question is does that cheesy mechanic go on throughout the game or gradually would you just set and eat after battles.

Even WoW as simple as it is was harder than this combat. As a melee character I was able to take 4-6 monsters at once because after one died, I would go to FULL no matter if I was in combat still with others. That was very very cheesy. Can you explain if this was just because we were in the lower trial levels? The game can't possibly be this way all the way through?

Edit: I would like to add, it completely removed the feeling of needing my real life friend to party with. It made it trivial and very unfun.

Can any of you answer a question for me? I tried EQ 2 with a friend and was having fun then we noticed after combat .. our character auto healed to full? WTF? We were completely turned off right then, how could you explain autohealing completely that fast?

I did like the game though and was wondering if this stupid game mechanic was maybe only something for low levels while you are learning or did EQ2 cheese it up all the way to the top?

My friends and I are sick of WoW screwing up class roles and ruining the game for stupid PvP. One thing we did love was the PvE in WoW. WoW had fun dungeons and raids. We are quitting WoW now in search of a game that knows how to give classes certain roles and let them be the best in that role. I played a Warrior in WoW and would like a fun tanking experience in my next MMORPG.

Is LOTR the game we are looking for? Are the dungeons fun, unique and exciting? Are there large grand bosses to slaughter in raid environments? I also considered EQ2 but it has been out so long probably hard to catch up, they also spit out too much expansions too fast.

Thanks guys, I heard it was a good grouping game I may try it. The only thing I did hear is it has a high foreign population on it and it is sometimes hard to find a group because of this. Also I heard gold farmers run rampant.

Hello all, I am currently playing WoW but I have alot of dislikes about it. For one it isn't really a group based game the solo produces such a bad community. I also dislike how the class roles are very muddy between classes. I think classes should be very different in their roles. I think one of the reasons the classes are so blan and similar is because of stupid pvp has watered the game down. I am just looking for a good pve experience in group environments. I want to play the tank class and love it. Any suggestions?

I am tired of level class based MMORPGs. I love a skill based MMORPG where you make your character by where you choose to place points. You can really feel an attachment to a character you designed. Last one I played is Rubies of Eventide, the perfect game if the combat mechanics were not so horrid. I hate to say that because I love so much the whole class system, just wish combat played out more like EQ or WoW. Anyone know of any games like the ones I describe on the horizon or that are out now.

WoW will definitely add more PvP shit (like that zone for the expansion) than before, if WAR does good.  I don't see any of their PvP features doing well anyway.  About 95% of the players in WoW only PvP for gear.  It's going to be too hard to reverse the affect now.   I understand why they added gear obtainable through PvP, and I'm glad they did.  The problem is, that's what WoW is all about, gear... Nobody cares about fun anymore.  I'm sure most people did at first... then they realized they're useless without good gear.  Then they either quit , or go on a mission to get the best shit.  Let's hope WAR is more about fun than gear. 

Classes are not what they were originally, the classes are scewed up now in their pve roles. I really dislike it. Classes use to have more flavor.

I have to agree fantasy lends itself more to group tactics and sci-fi works best with fps.

Actually fantasy MMORPGs and fantasy games in general have always been more popular because of the cool class differences, weapons, and magic. Sci-fi to me is just to far out there and I would never been interested in fighting with lazers and .. uh ..what else could you possibly do? Sci-fi is not for me definitely and I am no kid.
