• • Age of Conan is a failure, I sure hope SGW isnt making the same mistakes...

    Well another MMO launched and once again I find myself disappointed. Age of Conan didnt even come close to what I had hoped for in an MMO. And frankly, it isnt a true MMO but rather an MO.

    Ive read the FAQ on SGW site, it doesnt really go into details so Im assuming it isnt know yet. So I'll direct this to the devs of SGW...

    • please make us a seamless game to play in. I understand making seperate zones for each world but dont overdo it. Dont seperate each zone into mirrored instances with a 50 player cap like Age of Conan did. Dont make us wait on load screens for every door we open or everytime I enter a town. This is an MMO after all, I want to see hundreds if not thousands of players around me.   

     

    • please make the game more sandbox design than Linear. I dont need an amusement park ride MMO experience. Those games appeal to the lowest common denominator and never have long-term replay value. I like quests but it shouldnt be forced on me. I dont need 5,000 quests to be happy. Im fine with a gun, open terrain, and freedom to choose my own destiny. If I buy one more MMO and find I need to kill 10 boars over and over to level up Im going to toss my computer out the window.

     

    • I read that there will be non-combat options. Some mini-games is mentioned. Im excited by this and would recommend you expand upon that idea. I wouldnt mind playing a toon that never has to pick up a rifle. The nerdy archaelogist in the movie wasnt a fighter but was a hero nonetheless. I would love a class that just repairs weapons in the field or makes bullets or solves puzzles that helps out a group encounter. Or even better, helps build encampments.

     

    • Rethink the housing idea. Its important to vet MMO gamers. Expand on it and allow us to build small towns or encampments in the world we have access too. And please, no instanced towns. We want it in the gameworld and not some tucked away instance zone like LOTR does. There could be two types of towns...temporary encampment (think a small campfire with tents) to help heal wounds, rest, repair, etc. And then a permanent town with simple housing, a watering hole, etc. Both would be built by that non-combat class I mentioned before.

    Im sick and tired of every MMO since Star Wars Galaxies ending up in my trash can. I dont enjoy WoW clones yet every developer thinks I do. SGW's audience is more mature and sophisticated, dont give us a design thats meant to appeal to the dumbed down masses. Give us a game meant for gamers

    Well, two days into the game and i already canceled my subscription. Was what I thought it would be. A $50 lesson to be sure. But it was only $50, no biggie. I still go in for 12 hours of overtime and make a extra $450 tonight.

    I'll try to finish my month here and there in between other games I play. Maybe in a few months I'll reactivate it to see if I can find any renewed hope in it.

    This was the shortest live MMO I have ever play. I have played almost every major MMO out there too.

    NOOOO...

    my worst fears realized. you could have warned me first before you upped and just quit.
