I suddenly had no desire to read anything else Jon Wood writes after that article. There was something very pompous about it.

Is this a joke? It's not April, right..?

Cheers for the heads up. :)

Formations and binding contracts sounds great.

I still think this game is missing that 3rd faction, RVR just isn't the same, sadly. :(

Although reading through the patch notes, I don't play the game anymore, there are some good changes.

# Various UI fixes, such as making sure timers synchronize properly on PQs.

# Graphical enhancements (Bloom, improved weapon trails, heat shimmer, etc…).

# Pet and monster pathing improvements.

See how 1.3.3 goes to tempt me back !

Looking forward to this fun bag of goodness.

I'm a good player at FPS games, I'm too casual to be pro, but when I was playing WWIIOL a couple years ago, I found this game had a deep learning curve. It took about 2 weeks of play to become good, but once I got familar with alot of the towns and using my environment as cover, I started to rake in more kills than deaths. You think you're surrounded by pros, but chances are, you're fighting alot of players who have been playing for weeks aswell. But in my experience, dying alot made me a better player in WWIIOL,  this made the game a whole lot more exciting, I'd spend ages approachng a town or base, I'd crawl along the ground hearing bullets whizz past me, scared of being hit, as a stray bullet to my leg or lower body would hinder my progress.

I literally jumped out of the seat with THIS news!

Planetside 2 would be absolutely fantastic, I sure hope the same people who made Planetside will be on board!

CAN'T WAIT !!!

And yet WWIIOL is still around, pumping out patches and new content and a new graphics engine. Triple A titles such as Tabula Rasa and Auto Assault were flops.... :p

The character creation system is great and lots to fun. Creating your character is more enjoyable than actually playing the character.

Your character looks good when you create it but once you start playing the graphics change to a comic style with black outlines. This art-style is awful. When you zoom out your character looks like it's blurry. It was so horrible I actually canceled my subscription.

Guess I'll have to play Warhammer while I wait for Aion to be released.

Seriously. Horrible gfx...

 

Your problems can be solved by simply disabling comic book style outlining and disabling depth of field blurring effects. I find CO to be one of the nicest looking MMO's released to date, but like WoW, you either like the art style or don't.

This game should be re-released as a free online multiplayer game, it's a good fun RPG, shame to see it go, it didn't work as a MMO, but as a traditional online RPG with modding ability, it'd do well?

The trouble with mmorpg.com is that it's full of MMO haters and people that don't even play or own the game they are bashing. This place is all about venting your frustrations, and nothing more.

 

This dosent make any sense, If they dont own or have never played the game why would they be venting there frustrations about it?

I said fullstop, mmorpg sees alot of people venting their frustration. I said there are people who bash a game they've never played, didn't say they're frustrated with a game they've never played.

*Shrug*

Ithink it's one of the best MMO's out there right now, I enjoy the freedom if the classless system, hurts PVP balance, but I'm sure that will get sorted soon.

It just feels that they've lowered the powers, and will probably tweak them as they get player feedback and testing.

It's always fun trying your new creation. Love the character creator also, so many options !

I'm very glad this game will recieve updates every 3 months. Loving CO right now, one of the best MMORPG's I've played so far, alongside EVE Online, EQ2, COH, and Dark Age of Camelot.

I always felt that Cryptic did good with their CoH. The things you've listed will no doubt be corrected and fixed.

Also, I feel the shard/instancing will help the game in the long run, no more re-rolling on populated servers or repurchasing a CO account to play on USA/EU servers should the community die out.

"This product is temporarily not available. Please come back later. We apologize for this inconvenience."

Anyone getting this?

Is it true? i could purchase the UK client/account and play on servers available to US players, and vice versa?

Thankyou.
