Also Anarchy Online's interface isn't the most intuitive so the game sure shows its age. Quite sad we don't have any other decent Sci-Fi MMOs be it free or pay : (
True. There a very little of them as well. It would be better if we had a better Sci-Fi that was at least F2P. MMO's like WoW, GW and some of the other ones that stick to that 'theam' are ok but I need a break from thoes since there are TON's of thoes types. We need a GOOD Sci-Fi, if there was such a thing. I would even go so far as to pay for it. Untill then, though, there is nothing good out there. Yet. We need more Sci-Fi plz *sigh*
I ran into the same problem as you, and tried a lot of free ones as well as other ones, unfortunately I must admit that to me, WoW is still at the moment the best MMORPG out there. The others to me are either outdated, or just not what massive online can be. Many people that dislike WoW do so because of the graphics. Yup, it's cartoon style, but personally I like that. And look at the competition then on the 3d mmo market. What do we get? Endless fields of 1000s of square meters with just a couple of trees and a flat surface. Face it or not, but at the moment mmo's can't offer you the nice 3d stuff you like on your screen. This also counts for the free ones. Not to mention most free ones are azian, so what do you get? A small figure with an oversized weapon doing tons of damage, having few hitpoints and getting hit for a few points of damage. Stuff like age of conan looks promessing as a sort of next gen mmorpg, but until then I'd say wait a bit, and don't bother with the free ones.
Btw, as for Anarchy Online, unless you want to pay for the expansions what you can do is pretty limited to : grab a mission, go into a building, whack, shoot, pillage, loot, burn, rejoice, and do it all over again.
I am looking for a good mmo that i can enjoy, i play wow, i am bored of it after playin since alpha, i have played guild wars lvl to 20 in a day got bored , i want a game different then those, i have tried voyage centry , good game, shot online is ok when i want to play golf, last chance i have played.
Ne1 have better idea of a free game that good as those or better?
Lmao, guildwars is not about lvling.. ofcourse you got bored when u don't even know what it's about
Not to bring up a big argument, but most of the Korean MMO's that are free are quite amazing, sure you cant read or understand anything going on in the game, but like holy beast and or some others, the games are well made, cartoonish but fun. But to be a good free MMO i think some amount of money has to be paid, like a b2p, but not p2p such as guild wars,
Guild wars wasnt a bad game it was fun its just not amazingly good.
Well ,I like alot of current mmo players am sick of the same ol' same ol' stuff. I have also tried most of the mmorpgs p2p and f2p out there. What I look for is something different.
After going thru about 20 f2p games in the last year I can say that now I am enjoying:
Granado Espada
and
Voyage Century Online.
They are both a little different and unique in features fro the run of the mill crap. Give either one a try I think you will be surprised.

Ugh, lucky people that can play Granado Espada right now! I just signed up for the singapore pre-open beta test, hope I get in soon. But for now, Guild Wars it is, especially considering how I never really got past post-searing, might as well get my money's worth and finish the Prophecies campaign.
I dislike Archlord...preset character choices suck -.- you should be able to completely create your character however you want to, even WoW lacks that, course..WoW has cartoon graphics that make things look overly big, perverted programmers that give all the females C and D cups, and 8 million 14 year olds who all farm gold.
Way to stereotype the whole WoW playerbase. It's ignorant people like you that piss me off. Call me a fanboy for all I care, ignorance and irony are bad traits when criticizing a game.
That may be a stereotype, but I played WoW for some time and have to agree with the original poster.
The graphics were cartoony
There were naked Night Elves with implants dancing in most of the auction houses
And there certainly was alot of 14 year olds farming gold and talking smack.
Nightelf females breasts arent THAT large...now look at dwarf females, woohoo, and human females as well, but hey it could be worse, all females could look male...wheres the fun in that?
Well, since you will like only what you will like I recommend trying them all. This website has a good selection of games that are free and others that are in free-beta-forever.
Personally, out of the ones I have tried I am still looking. Dungeon Runners is the worst game I have played in a very long time, it's absolutely silly. Last Chaos wishes it was Lineage 2 but the Devs stopped a few years short in their work. Very pointless game unless you want to drop some decent cash in the item mall, give it a few years to smooth things out. Silkroad is decent but, of course, has troubles of it's own - free games don't have the cash that Blizzard or NCsoft has to drop on servers and networks -- if they are popular expect lag during peak play hours. I really don't care for games with item malls, I would rather excel through skill than VISA payments.
Currently I am DLing Silkroad to try again after a year or so off, probably hasn't changed but 2moons is still a few breaths short of vaporware (seeing as it is already a game but we have seen nothing but a torrid translation) and hasn't surfaced for air in a while with no indication of when it will.
just a slice of my feelings of the current state of the game-ing
2 moons has a very active community. Currently 100 testers are in pre-open beta to try and eliminate some more of the bugs. The game will be going open beta sometime within the next week.
The forums on here aren't very active for it, but the game is launching very, very soon.

After seeing the nice job Acclaim has done with 9Dragons, I signed up in hopes of getting a 2Moons beta invite. So far no luck, but I'll be watching this one too. Acclaim has some really polished work for freebie grinders. Based on what I've seen so far, I'd love to see what they could do with a full-blown, complex P2P MMO.

Couple of the games have appealed to me here... I'm just wondering about the MMOFPS game.. Is there levelling involved with this? I'm talking about the Phylon game. It actually looked very good for a free MMO, but the only way I'd play it is if it had a levelling system. Is there anyone who has played the game who can clear this up for me?
Endless Ages is a good MMOFPS, it was pay to play but now its' completely free to access everything. This game can be very fun it's just one of the most overlooked MMOs of all time. The jetpacks give you complete freedom in all 3 dimensions wich is very uncommon in an MMO, and the shapeshifting is awsome the variety of monsters you can turn into is greater then any game I've ever played.
this looks pretty good. I dont want to try it though without someone elses backup on it

In addition, I hear that Infinity will generally be released free, with additional content for subscribers.
Sounds too good to be true, but as a small fan base here in south england, we're rooting for its development.

Whoa. I'm from Devon.
