If so many of us love sandbox MMO's, why aren't we going back to Ultima Online? Time after time I see repeated posts about everyone's "perfect" game; and a lot of these posts lead straight to Ultima Online.

i honestly have to say that your right everyone does pretty much want a sandbox MMO but they want a new one, with a new story.  All games are at some point based around past and older games, Ultima Online has probably everything a game needs to have in it, and there is really not much more you can add to make it a better game as far as content.  But all that needs to be recreated maybe in a new universe or even in a familiar one, like Dragonlance maybe, even though thats associated with DnD you get the idea.

You forget the option "there are even more people who do not like sandbox games and just want a good hack-n-slash".

thats cause hack-n-slash is not an mmorpg, that would actually be considered a single player game, you can add multiplayer function and you have a game with a chat room and maybe someone to hack-n-slash with.

Warhammer is coming soon...i didnt see it as a good game..but after  waching some videos from de devs about all features explained..its an mmo that will just kick ass...

 

Lets just hope they arent like funcom devs..liers,scammers, overhypers etc

The mentality you have about WAR is exactly why games are failing now days, these games dont need people to pop in and look at the paint on the walls, some might even turn on the lights in the room before leaving and saying they dont like it.  Hype is great for games but everyone needs to stop having unreasonable expectations for all these games coming out and start realizing the actual process that is involved in the making of a game, and the needs that have to be met all at the same time.  Making games isnt free and no matter how big the company no game ever gets an infinite budget to work with.  So releasing the game doing pre orders, selling special offers and collectors editions are all so that they can finish the game.  WAR will have a tong of bugs and lots of problems with a variety of things that arnt that big of a deal but everyone will whine like spoiled little princesses wanting there perfect little imaginary world.

The point your asking.......stop bashing one game for not releasing a perfect game right out of the shoot, or even not fixing all your problems at once, or even not giving you everything they said the game would have in it.  Have some understanding and look at the game itself and the content of the premise of the game rather than just not getting what you want and throwing a fit.

Just expect WAR have all the same problems and lots of others people arent ready for.

hit me up if you still have any left please.

Well iv played them all, literally and i currently play AoC and have fun with it simply because of my guild....but.  The thing that will really affect mmorpgs is probably going to be a game that no one is even thinking about and really is not even an mmorpg, but it gets treated like one and has one of the biggest fan bases in online gaming.......

DIABLO 3

i really think it will trump them all, of course the release is a forever away but they were smart and stuck to what worked and just polished what they had to make it sharper, more fun, and expansive.

As far as AoC taking a big hit when WAR comes out yeah it will happen, but just like in any game there will be those who stay around.  Believe it or not there are actually alot of fans of the Conan mythos out there and they will all be more interested in playing a game that involves there fandom rather than worrying about crap like which has better pvp.   Which in my opinion if your really worried about pvp that much go play a fps and stop wasting forum space with all your rants about how a pvp game should be made.  IMHO of course.
