I've had enough with these STUPID devs that are creating multiple accounts, this game shouldn't even be on this site! It should be banned, and sued for creating such a turd of a game.

Now, onto my main point, I would like everyone who reads this to boycott this game. Create as many accounts as you can, I would reccommend about 10. Make 10 email accounts with google mail or something, and login once a day for a few days on those 10 accounts to get their rank thing up to 10, so you can un-hype the game.

I know this is ALOT to ask, but please, this game needs to die, and I would love to see this game vanish forever.

We'll need about 50 - 100 people to do this, so If you have created those 10 accounts and un-hyped, please PM me so I can get a good idea of how many un-hypes we've got. 10 unhypes from 100 people would be 1000 x 1/10 ratings. Every little helps :)

Thanks.

Any help would be great, thanks.

 

I'm as baffled as you are about how this game is so hyped, but do you have any proof that it is the devs doing it?

Yes, take a look at every hype that has bad english, or basically every hype that isn't negative. Click their names. They are either from Shanghai in China, or some fake place in the U.S.

Lol. It's hilarious.

EDIT: Also, may I add that it is extremely unlikely for anyone other than the devs themselves to spend this much time hyping a game that is hated by anyone who has the intelligence to realise how terrible the game is, and how it is almost impossible for around 1000 people to like this game enough to hype it 10/10.

It's the devs, no doubt. Also, take a look at some of the forum posts.. You'd have to be blind not to notice which ones are the devs.

Down with Shadow of WoW! (it's a wannabe WoW, take a look at the screenshots of the GUI, lol.)

you'll be glad to know I've never heard of this game before this post... and plan to pay it no mind going forward.  glad I could help.

Ahh yes now I see it. I went through the first few pages of comments, and noticed EVERYONE was saying how bad it looked. Then when you get to the comments from January 2008, they are nothing but good things said about it in poor ingrish by people with exactly 2 posts from newyour newyork or china. Come on mmorpg.com deal with this crap.

I very much agree. While I am not going to create 10 user names, as one is quite enough for me to keep up with things, I will say this game should be removed completely due to its disregard of the MMO community, and the site policies.

i whole heartedly agree.

this is just plain stupid and an outright abuse of the hype meter. it just takes away the validity of such a meter as a tool for the community when its abused by people and especially developers such as this.

 

tbh mmorpg should remove this game from their website. its a steaming pile of crap anyway, just look at it.

this really is just plain stupid.

i'll defenitely give this game the rating that it rightly deserves. that being a a big fat 0 if i could. but in light of the current situation and standing in relation to the hype meter system i am forced to simply rate it with a 1.

abuse of the hype meter really should not be tollerated at all, and its just stupid that this is allowed to continue.

these dev's should spend their time making a good game instead of hyping a pos like this one.

in conclusion. will not play, will not buy, will not follow. but will de-hype due to dev actions.

Giving a rating of 0 is really not rational and fair. I've downloaded the game, which is getting more and more compact now, and played the game too.

Of course, quite a lot of things remain to hope for during the beta period, for example the graphics and the less smooth maneuver. But that's almost 1 year ago; I have to say the progress this game has made is amazing.

No mention-worthy bugs anymore, the graphics are splendid and impressive in terms of 2D rendering, and they're moving to 2.5D in several weeks. The response to gamer concerns is very positive; GMs are in the game and on the official forums, ready to answer any stupid questions.

Both basic and up-to-date MMORPG features are realized in this game, abundant interesting quests, character customization, pupil-master relations, guild wars, all kinds of crafting and upgrading, rebirth and those intriguing events.

I'm saying this to be fair, this game is not bad at all?and judging by the improvement that's been made, I deem it advisable for any real MMO fans to give it a try.

And you surely be a dev from this piece of crap  to defend it like that........ This game should not be rated more than 3 and im generous there. And hyper your crap game like that will not help you because soon people try it like 10 min they will just put it back where it belong... IN A TRASH CAN.

Interesting. What exactly is "rational and fair" about artificially inflating your own Hype-level? How is that fair to other games, and the readers who vote for them? If this game was any good, there would be no need to hype your own product. The very fact that you need to resort to hyping your own game is in itself evidence of how terrible it is.

The key word in any game is "Fun!"

Are all males in China 28? Lmao! 

I agree with this thread, this game shouldn't be on Mmorpg. I tried to load the game to give it a try and it wouldn't let me. I wanted to see if it had a single shread of playability and ofcourse, as with any bogus game that creates it's own hype, I couldn't even get on.

Don't hate me for what I say...Hate me because I'm better looking than you...
