Peace out beeotch
I thought I had seen the most retarded MMO site ever. I guess I was wrong. That one takes it, by far.
So this dude's premise is.... raiding + hardcore pvp = kiss of death?
They just want to stand around and chat all day, and still have "The Uberest Gear on the Server"?
Whoever wrote that piece needs to get out of MMOs. Now. And stay out.
Its ok to be mad that AoC is WoW2, dont live in denial. Not all mmo's are like WoW. Look at Mortal Online, Earthrise and Fallen Earth for real PvP. Hehe
I'm a PvEr, as will more than likely be the majority of the rest of AoCs' population, just as every other games' population. So, not getting high-level gear for PvP, whether through PvE or PvP means, isn't gonna affect me or the other PvErs at all. Never once raided in WoW or any other game, the gear I obtained through normal means was more than adequate for PvE, as it will be in AoC. And that's assuming mmosite even has all the facts right.
So, kinda hard for me to feel any sympathy. Sorry.
The PvPers and the raiders will find their way to succeed at their part of the game, and the ones who are gonna cry because they have to work before stroking their e-peens will, well, cry. As they already are, apparently.
So he want's all the great hear but doesn't want to work for it? maybe FC should just give us all max lvl chars with the best gear possible and eliminate having to do anything but stand around all day.
Complaints like that just doesnt make any sense to me. You want good gear? then work for it. It's not like your going to get a malibou mansion with 10 Feraris and porches by just sitting there.
Its ok to be mad that AoC is WoW2, dont live in denial. Not all mmo's are like WoW. Look at Mortal Online ( barely announced, in early dev, you have no idea what the game will be like or if it'll even make release), Earthrise ( barely announced, in early dev, you have no idea what the game will be like or if it'll even make release ), and Fallen Earth ( still in dev, don't know how the final product will be, at least it has a good chance of release ) for real PvP. Hehe
You might as well hold up Darkfall as your example of gaming godliness ( 'course, that one will get you straight laughed out ).
AoC is not a PvP mmo! So anyone playing AoC for PvP is a massive PvP nnob, they have no clue what real PvP is.

Hehe, big bird is in AoC!

Yes, that's why they are having FFA PvP only servers, right? As well as PvP on the PvE servers, just not FFA.
A REAL PvPer takes the PvP wherever he can find it, and does his best to excel at it. Guess you're not a real PvPer?
I am not sure what it is ppl like yourself realy want from end game. Are you looking for a place you can live happily ever after?
Should you respond to this....please enlighten me to what it is you would like..not what you don't want.

I guess that some dudes could play AoC after having a sex change!
you dont need to spend more time at forum dedicated to a game you wouldnt touch with a 50 mile long stick. ill bump your post when needed.
I need more vespene gas.

"Real pvp"? You want real pvp? This is the realest PVP you can get!

Least they're not bending over for games that don't exist merely because some "devs" say it does.
I think I may like that site. Thanks, it may be an honest review site kind of like G4-X play on TV.
We need more sites like that, you know someone on our side to protect us from Marketing tricks like Funcom gives us.
I can't stand corruption. Call me a Warrior but I fight it when I find it, and Funcom is just that !! Aoc is not even released yet and they are full of games, however thats the best time to get sales up ( marketing 101 ) .
I don't get this thread or post...
"If you want to get the best armor and weapons in Age of Conan, you're going to have to raid, something you can't actually engage in until you hit level 80. There'll still be dungeons that players can band together and delve into before the cap, but for large-scale, 24-player encounters against enormous bosses that require highly coordinated attack patterns to defeat, you'll have to wait until the end game."
So the end game raiding makes the whole game suck? And only "IF" you want the best gear. My bet is just regular hunting n such will prolly get you some pretty good gear. Really sounds like just about any other games 'endgame' content. What do you expect...once you hit lvl 80 that you are just given everything by default? Then complain that once you hit lvl 80 there is nothing left to do?

Who cares what I want? All I know is that AoC is WoW2...... so sad.
this is the line of contention: "If you want to get the best armor and weapons in Age of Conan, you're going to have to raid, something you can't actually engage in until you hit level 80."
to the OP, I can only assume that you have some need to have the best gear on the server based on the QQing you're doing. Please understand that this game isn't built for you personally, it's built to appeal to millions of customers - some of whom enjoy raiding. Personally I don't ,so I won't raid and therefor i won't get the phat lootz that are in these instances. And i couldn't care less. I'm going to take from the game those parts that are appealing to me - exploring, questing, and Mini-game PVPing.
Hell in the 2 years i've played WOW i've never raided, I don't even have BC - i found what i enjoyed doing and just did that. Now i have a bunch of twinked chars and i get on and BG. (My account runs out on May 17th - talk about timing! booyeah). So while I'm really interested in the fact that you're NOT going to play and the reasons why....errrr no I really don't care why you're not going to play. Go hit the Darkfall boards and wait for your perfect game, or better yet why don't you develop you're own game that meets your particular needs.
mmosite.com is a great place to get the real info on mmo's. Here at mmorpg.com, the mods control what you say. In mmosite.com the mods do alot of the posting of news.. they have nothing to hide when it comes to telling the truth to the community.

Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
Well put.
See, I don't understand how the PvPers ( or so-called PvPers ) can complain when they are effectively getting more content than us PvErs. Think about it.
When I reach level 80, and have done all the quest/storylines/etc., I'm done. I get to re-roll or find another game. And I expect that, Am not bitching about it in any way.
The PvPer, on the other hand, once he's made it through the 80 levels and done all his quests/storyline/etc. ( if he wishes ), now get's even more content with the killing of the big bosses ( if he so wishes ) or just going straight into PvP land. He gets more time and enjoyment out of his toon while I'm rerolling my next one.
Some people are just never satisfied.

You remind me of girls
Am I crazy, or was that article written by Keen of http://www.keenandgraev.com/ ? Aka AmazingAvery, right? The same guy that posted all those great video's of the pvp weekend?
Perhaps, I'm confused... if so, sorry... but anywho...
I personally have never done any raiding, but I have to wonder what the author of that article would prefer for an end game mechanic once you reach max level? Basically, the game can either end or present greater challenges for those who wish to continue playing at max level. I can' imagine another alternative...
I know, I'm not saying anything new... I just don't understand what the author of that article would prefer?
blah blah blah
