  • i really detest the non P2P model.  The quality of the game and the the quality of the players one encounters is signifigantly different. Quite simply P2P games have a more mature and better skilled playerbase by a very large margin. Older veteran M…
  • Originally posted by Razeekster   I am kind of tired of coming here and looking at articles that put a positive spin on things that are clearly negative. The latest insult to my mind is how all these articles are being written about SW:TOR going…
  • Originally posted by Foomerang 100% combat oriented online games. Cash shops come standard. Purely developer driven content. Esport is the name of the game for pvp. Socialization has become automatized. If you were to tell me ten years ago that th…
  • as of 7/22 on Tor Staus we can see the results of the merger. Tor  gained players everyday on ToR status for the past 5 weeks.  The merger has left ToR with 16 very healthy servers (12 NA and 4 Euro).  The daily gains for weeks has left them with s…
  • Best:   Eq1, Daoc, Vanguard   Worst:   AoC:  Hands down the most juvenile onbnoxious self centered kiddie community of any MMO.  But the game was designed and targetted towards kiddie with an emphasis on juvenile themse with blood, gore, profa…
  • I don't think its entirely the type of game that people were brought up on but more the age of the player.  Those who have grown up in the internet generation (under 35) simply do not  have the patience or maturity to play MMOs.  They need to be con…
  • Nothing will kill the hype that is GW2 except time.  WoW going F2P will not kill that hype.  People want GW2 because its new and  a fantasy that they hope  will solve all their MMO problems and dislikes.  Gw2 is a game made and designed for ultra ca…
  • Gw2 is likely a lot younger but the average age in Most MMOs is in the early 30's. Not to mention GW2's target audience is a lot more casaul than most AAA MMOs appealing to those players that do not want to grind, are PvP players and do no want to i…

  • There are only 3 supported progression raiding MMOs presently EQ2, Rift and WoW.  One might add TOR to the list but I do not see any serious raiding guilds playing it.  One could also add EQ1 to this list but it doe snot havemuch of a playerbase lef…
  • Originally posted by thatkenguy I can't believe the Rift developers implemented this coin lock idea.  Being careful, I used a web-mail address which is hard for anyone else to compromise, then by the time this silly coin lock thing comes up I have f…

  • Funcom -  Recall what Funcom did with AoC.  Just before release they told the beta testers that the beta build was 3-4 builds behind their internal testing and that they had full content for the level 30+ zones that would be in at release including …
  • I do agree with Pokket's point about Wallmart customers.  They are sub human.  Going to a wallmart is like going to the zoo when you look at the people there.  I have always felt sorry for the poor Wallmart employees that have to put up with these c…

  • Keep in mind that fanoys constantly troll these forums attacking people only because they post views that differ from theirs about the game they pathalogically defend. They call the people who disagree with them "haters" and "trolls" when most of th…
  • For the most part those campaigning against endgame simply do not play MMOs except in the most casual of defintions.  The closest they actually come to playing a MMO is their endless whining posts on these forums.  One can argue the reasons why they…
  • I thought the ToR fanboys were the worst of all time but the GW2 fanboys are the most obnoxious and worst by agood measure.  GW2 may or not turnout to be a good game but the GW2 fanboys trolling and childish behavior makes it very hard it stomach re…
