best live events for me were the ones that included the player community.
my favorite was the moving of the role playing community in SWG (pre-CU on Euro-Chimaera) from Mos Eisley to Mos Espa (after Mos Eisley became the sole starting place for ne…

you might take a look at firefall. its a fps-style mmorpg and really free to play (best f2p system i encountered in an mmorpg). you can download it from steam.
its a lot of fun. there will be a major update later on this year probably.

beside all the good and the bad things i encountered in SWG (usually great ideas which weren't implemented that pertfectly because of restrictions of the game engine, not enough resources provided by SOE or players looking for holes in the system t…
when i first played WOW coming from SWG the leveling thru quests was a nice change first, but i soon missed SWG's terminal missions. and i still do when playing themepark MMOs.
perhaps because i am more a mercenary type of player who likes to have…

Global timers on world bosses so you can only choose just one....WTF.... No more bouncing around to world boss to boss.
there is a world boss spawn every 15 minutes (schedule), which gives you the possibility to…
You can find the new concept on world bosses on mega servers here
the bosses are on a longer rotation schedule (ie. Teqatl or the karka queen appear only 3 times a day). though their times are adjusted giving guild/groups the possibility to take on…

i resubscribed 3 weeks ago after a few months break, but after only a few days i canceled again. not much changed - just more of the same stuff (more wz's and raids - even the new zone section X is just another zone with higher dificulty - meaning m…
i saw a post on a German forum that 60-days gamecards were on sale for 10 Euro at a big wholesaler (Saturn).

there are no "quests" in GW2 like you find in other games as there are no real questgivers you need to talk to.
it all comes naturally - when you enter an area a heart shows up on your screen top right corner telling you that you are in a quest are…
i m more a sandbox player - played SWG from 2003 to the bitter end through all its versions.
when i finally had to look out for another game i saw SWTOR and GW2 were hyped all over at that time. my first choice of course was SWTOR. i followed the f…
the story lines are fine.
maybe technically (cut scenes, vo) not as perfect as TSW or SWTOR, but there are 2 aspects that made them more rewarding for me than those. first you can specify some starting parameters for your personal quest (so its not…
i always keep an eye on my pet's health and use my area heal to keep it up or swap the pet when necessary.
i usually have a tank (bear, dog, pig) and a DPS pet (cat, eagle) to swap back and forth. it works pretty well for me. i also try to choose t…
i enjoyed the events pretty much. in fact i enjoyed some so much that i often visited some areas again and again to repeat those events if they happened there again.
btw in yesterdays stress test they added a bunch of new events (some pretty tough …
i have mixed feelings about TSW. the quests are sometimes fun but most of the time its tedious and boring to fight your way to the quest items thru tons of mobs, that spawn just in time to give you the same experience on your way back out.
