If you don't want to get ganked play oblivion. I am an asshole and I approve this message as well as I approve in beating the little guy down.  It's like mashing snow... It's just fun.

    
    Way to miss the point. It's not about rolaplaying PVP. People are moving into new zones and while they are loading, people are sat waiting and killing them before they have a chance to do anything about it. Entering a zone with 10% health and under attack isn't roleplay.

    It is when you're as big of an asshole as I am :)

     If you really like WoW still, by all means stay the hell out of conan.  We don't need people in the game who want to sit back click 2 or 3 buttons and watch the battle.  We want warriors who actually play.  I never like watching, I like being involved in the games I play.  WoW was just click and wait.  Battle never changed.  AoC has a great dynamic battle system and much better toon development.  Not to mention better graphics, mechanics, and storyline.  Why in the hell would you want to do away with instances?  They add server stability in any game.  Why would you want camped dungeons and overpoped zones? Why would you rather play a cartoon than a gritty fantasy game?  I just don't get it.  Do you just hate change and improvement?

    Because Age of Conan is simply NOT the way MMORPG's can develop.
    

     

    Despite its higher detailed graphics it is a way BACK to earlier MMORPG designs of "closed" "preloaded" graphics with hampered gameplay as a result.

    As of Conan blowing Wow out of the water is MUST laugh. LOL LOL LOL

    Name me ONE aspect of the game Conan is a further evolution in MMORP's  BTW.

    - Talking NPC's? skipped on second meeting and what'sa patatoe doing in an ON line game for minutes long monologues? I thought linear adventuring ended in the 90's.

    - Graphics that hamper gameplay (from terrible long loading screens to PvP animation, "death on loading" designs and the end of seamless worlds as we know them).

    - Parallel instanceswhere you can't meet because you're manipulated into another dimension, just by enterin a city.

    Preloaded boxes is a failure in MMORPG, that's why.

     

     

    so wrong, I pity you.  You are just impatient and would rather play simple click and wait games than dynamic battles.  Cartoon games suck.  I would rather have the grit any day.  WoW's battle system is pathetic and causes predictability in battle.

    You fight and control your avatar in a swift tense battle. Swift and tense battles is what Wow/TBC makes it really shine in MMORPG's these days. This coupled with incredible detailed data they get from the arena data stats makes it state of the art in microscopic fighting in MMORPG's.

    
    

     

    In WoW battles are far from swift and tense.  More like boring and predictable.

    About a million internet movies prove you wrong.

     

    Ever entered an arena battle and wondered why people throw computers and mouses at their feet.

    Just try it.

    I've played much WoW and the people who take those videos are simple, fetal alcohol simple as well as the people who loose those fights.  Boring and predictable show me a build and I can beat it.  Fanboi's... so annoying.
