It's going to be next to impossible to ever get used to autoattack again after playing this game. It feels so disconnected. Kind of like pretending to be driving a car while sitting in the passenger seat.

OP the 2 games share only the crosshairs. When I need a break from DF, or EVE, I fire up Combat Arms for an actual FPS game.

Counter-Strike is a round-based tactical FPS played on servers that usually hold 8-32 players. Counter-Strike doesn't have 100+ player battles for territory in a large and persistant world. Neither does it have PvE, inventory system, trade, cannons, ships, magic, loot, mounts, housing or quests. I think you're a little off, son!

Rofl, nice try chief.

WOW is nothing like WC3 other than the artstyle and lore. You seriously comparing an RTS to an MMORPG? I bet you have some killer micro skills....

Where as:

Darkfall is an MMO, modelled after FPS games, where you control a single player. Sounds alot like.....hmmmm......Counter Strike with skills and swords/sorcery doesn't it?

I might be off but I seem to remember WOW being advertised (way before it released) with the idea that a player would be able to take control of one of the units from an RTS game and play with other players in a 3D world.

In fact I played CS and CoD4 for much longer then any MMO on the market. The key for that was being a part of community: a clan and competing with others in tournaments.You have a point here Daarco.

You people can stay in your PvEs with static lores and game worlds where "heroes" like you save the world at least 100 times per week. I am tired of that overused model: EQ, WoW, AoC, WAR, LOTR...all of them are same theme parks where your ride ends when your reach your max level and the best gear and somehow all of you have the same story to tell.

Good luck with your wait for the mythical "end game", a new expansion with new levels and new gear. Smoke and mirrors, smoke and mirrors. Indeed there is more depth, action and unpredictability in CS tournaments then in theme parks.

No kidding, my buddy convinced me to try Aion on his account. Wow, what a horrible piece of garbage. Darkfall's combat has spoiled the crap out of me, I don't think I can ever go back to an auto attack MMO ever again.

 

To give you another analogy, it's like in Darkfall you get to drive the fast car making every movement you make count, where in auto attack games you're really playing Need for Speed where one button "goes" and another button "brakes".
