MMO to hold me over till the bigger ones come out

Triadninja

Alright, this thread has probably been done  a million times, however I will continue with this one in hopes that you guys can list me off some MMOs to play that will keep me entertained until games like TOR, GW2, and PS2 come out.

 

The game can be any genre, any playstyle, however there are some prerequisets that I'm looking for: It is not a game that I have already played or have listed as "Maybe", The game's population cannot be on the brink of death, I.E.  I don't want a Face of Mankind type population. I want it to be populated with the game either having new updates being pushed, or new blood coming into the game at a steady pace. I also would prefer if it were F2P, however if the game is worth mentioning and has what i'm looking for, feel free to throw in a P2P.

 

Ok here is a list of games that I have, might or will never play with ratings:

Played:

Anarchy Online 4/5

Fallen Earth 3/5

EVE 2/5

Guild Wars 5/5

Forsaken World 1/5

Aion (Undecided, played free trial, not enough to go on.)

Darkfall 1/5

League of Legends 4/5

APB: Reloaded 4/5

WoW 3/5

Perpetuum 2/5

 

Might play:

LOTRO

Lineage 2

Vindictus

 

 

Will NEVER Play:

Rift

City of Heroes/Villians

Champions Online

DC Universe(I'm sorry for hatin on the Hero games, but i'm just not a superhero/supervillan type of guy.)

 

Anyway, you can suggest any game, any genre, any playstyle. You can also take one of my "Might Play" MMOs and go into detail as to why it rawks, and why it would hold me over. The games I have rated in my "Have Played" list should also let you know what kind of games I like if it helps, but like I said, feel free to suggest any game. I'm open to anything at this point.

Honestly, you've listed the big ones and are in the same boat as most of us...bored.

I'd suggest diving into LoTRO, it's a fairly solid game, but there's nothing else major out there but F2Ps that are all fairly subpar.

Have to tried Age of Conan? you played AO so you're probably familar with Funcom. Try out Deathwish server, it just launched two weeks ago so the population is young and healthy. It's a "hardcore" pvp ruleset.

Never played Vindictus? do it. You may not like it but its one of my top 2 favorite free to play games and i feel the cash shop does not dominate it. Beautiful graphics, fast action gameplay.

Hellgate very cool very fun rpg/fps style game kinda like a mix of Borderlands and Diablo.
