    Darkfall, not unholy wars, had my favorite combat. Care to elaborate on why you dislike it?
    It was simplistic with no depth or real strategy. Melee combat was a trainwreck of two spazzes circle strafing and slapping at each other while stuffing their face with berries. Ranged was two people sprinting erratically and bunny hopping while spamming the same attack over and over.

    It was literally the worst combat I've ever experienced in an MMO and it's not close. I can't even think of another game where the combat was just flat out bad. Which sucks, because I was all aboard the Darfail hype train before playing it and felt terrible about convincing a bunch of people to buy the game.
    i dont think fps games are you thing then..

    The combat in darkfall is the strongest aspect of the game..

    There is no single mmo on the market that offers more player skill combat combat then darkfall

    how long did you play darkfall? or tried it? your opinion is complete irrevlant if you havent played the meta game

    darkfall has over 150 skills.. im not even sure how you come with the same attack experience because there is a shitton of playstyles to our disposal
    Well designed FPS games are definitely my thing. Dumpster tier, broken, trainwreck FPS is definitely not.

    I actually agree with you that the awful combat in Darkfall is the strongest aspect of the game. Everything else managed to be worse.

    Now you're just being a fanboy. TERA, B&S, Dragon Nest and a thousand other games offer far more complex, skillful and challenging combat. Half-Life Crowbar Only servers offered more skillful combat.

    I played for about a month during beta leading up to launch. My wallet thanks me for not wasting any money. I had high hopes for the game and was willing to look passed the 1998 graphics, nonexistent content, boring grind, and shockingly bad UI for the sake of an open world sandbox PvP game, but having the combat be as truly disgustingly bad as it was just kept me from playing it any more.

    Most of the skills are different variations of the same thing and everyone was able to train pretty much everything they wanted given enough time to macro, so everyone was a fighter-archer-mage.



    so you managed to play darkfall for 1 month during launch? congratz man.. i think you got a pretty good expience of the meta combat in darkfall.

    All the games you mentioned like blade tera and those other crap.. they are using action combat aka soft targetting

    dont matter tho.. i dont take your opinion very high.. since you have no qlue of what darkfall is

    Sorry, poll is completely subjective to style of game.

    MMORPG - Tab target
    MMO - Terra/ESO
    Console - Twitch

    Mind you I simply do not like twitch so I'm biased

    Generally I prefer FPS/TPS combat, but in the case of MMO's I don't have a preference. Other mechanics are more important to me then.

    Consoles?  FPS/TPS has been part of PC gaming since the introduction of 3D graphics in the 90s. And nowadays is seen in (MMO)RPG's too. And all kinds of mixes in between.

    PC came way before consoles in shooters. Way before.

    Yep, all the early twicth FPS games from Wolfenstein 3D onwards were ported to console.

    Plus RTS games rely heavily on your twitch skills at competitive levels and RTS games have been a main stay on PC long before consoles.
