• • Looking for a Beta Invite/Key?

  • If anyone is reading this 10 pages in I would be interested in one also.  I would keep the keys flowing on here.  Been looking at this game for awhile now and it's got me interested.  I can wait till OB but would prefer to be able to try it sooner.

• • I want to like this game, but I am scared because...

  • That's what I am hoping for life.  I am hoping to meet some people who are like me, know how to play mmo's or are willing to learn and just experience the game.

    I am now playing Warhammer online and there is just something missing from that game, I am trying to fall in love with it but... well that is neither here nor there but there is something missing from my mmo life and I really want RoM to give me back what is missing.

• • I want to like this game, but I am scared because...

  • I have played mmo's for a long time now, since EQ1 in '99.  I have seen a ton of stuff and played with some bad and good people.  I have never played a F2P mmo but this one caught my attention.

    I have been looking into for sometime and do plan on playing when it comes out.  However, I am scared.  These games tend to typically attract a very... for the lack of a better term, "immature" crowd... simply because they are free and thats what you get.

    I am scared of this.  Like I said I have played many games, I want to like this one but with a bad community I am skeptical if I will be able to hang on for that long.... anyone else in a similar boat, or anyone who has played alot of F2P games convince me otherwise?

    Also when the game does come out is there anyone with similar experience with mmo's looking to play together... maybe a guild.. or just a duo, trio, ect?

• • LF an mmo with meaningful crafting.

  • Honestly EQ2 crafting is the best I have ever seen in a game.  It is extremely in depth and detailed.

    What is going to happen after the second month, well judging from the poll on VNBoards you are going to lose another 40% of the population unless somethign changes.

     

    However I would say a large portion of the 40%, like me, are not really playing right now anyway.  I am not gonna grind anymore just so I can play broken and meaningless T4 "endgame".  Getting past T3 was pretty bad bad on a low pop server.  Scenario get old and RvR campaign mechanics are silly.

     

    That won't get fixed in 3 weeks.  So basically after 2 months we are looking at about a 40% retention rate.   A number of people are hanging on for decemenber in the hopes that by 1.1 the ship will have been righted.  If 1.1 does not satisfy them then we will probably come to like a 30% retention and WAR will be a niche game.

     

    I have not seen much indication that Mythic knows how to fix its RvR even if they want to.  So I expect it to be niche and not grow much during christmas.

     

     

     

     

    Ugh so VN polls represent 100% of the player base? VN is like MAYBE 2% total of the players playing this game.... your numbers are all wrong, take the doom and gloom elsewhere please.
