What's the most "Automated" MMORPG you've ever played?

traquena

auto potion systems, auto loots etc...

 

Pravilic

RF online, Auto Pot FTW  you can set it to give you (HP and MP) pots when your life reaches a certain point(which you can change).

nope sorry, lineage2 isnt automated, you can set up macros to streamline your playing.but its by no means automated. unless you have a 3rd party program you bot witht hen yeah thatllmake it automated, then youl be justly banned by NcSoft when caught lol.

traquena

oh really?...

for me it's WYD Global... it has auto potion, auto buffs, auto loots and auto attack systems... which you can set and adjust the way you want... it's implanted with their C.C system (Combat Control System)... so you dont have to click and press a lot of buttons anymore... you can do a bunch of chattings while hunting at the same time...

yeah that's a hard thing if you get banned using 3rd party hack/bot programs... imagine you played that game for a long time and spent a lot and you'll just get banned for trying an automated program...

The game is automated as heck none the less, most automated Ive played anyways.  Basically Id play solitare in the background as I played.

traquena

Lineage 2 really?... haha seems no thrill to play that game with that kind of automation... you're just like watching a movie though?

Ya it was horrible, everything takes so long to kill so you end up spending more than 20 seconds on each guy.  What am I supposed to do during that time, roleplay and pretend to be a fairy or something?

Voyage Century Online. The game itself isn't that automated, but it's all repetition so you can macro the hell out of it.

lol.. you make me laugh dude..

i suggest you try WYD Global... it has automation systems but it's not like what you've played before... here's the automated (Combat Control) System's description and guide...

-Combat Control Mode-



C.C MODE (OFF): C.C MODE is deactivated



C.C MODE (MC): C.C MODE physical attack is activated



C.C MODE (SC): C.C MODE magic attack is activated



C.C MODE (Potions): Automatically use potions/feed while activated



-Potion Use-



Potions will be used when it reached the chosen setting (90, 50, 30%)



-Movement Option-



Stationary Hunting: while in this mode, the character will stay in its location



Free Movement Hunting: While in this mode, the character will move to the closest target



Fixed Range Hunting: While in this mode, the character will move to the closest target then go back to the original position

 

 

this game has auto attack, and auto potting system... the monsters doesn' t need that much time to be killed... though the game has automated systems you still need to control it... where you want to hunt what monsters you want to kill etc...

When I used to MUD I was very into writing triggers with zmud.  I even has chase scripts.  So I had most things automated.

look at those 3 boxes at the lower right of the pic...

you can set it the way you want...

I'm with yar there. Forget these graphic games, get back to muds. And as for zmud it was just great for setting things up to do multipule tasks with just one key. If people want to experience real automated then trying mudding Visable exits: East, North and Up.

I would have to say Eve Online.  The only thing you have to do in that game is drive the ship for about 100m to your destination.  Combat, mining, docking, and long range piloting are all automated.  Got real boring real quick, fell asleep at my computer several times mining.

I heard Granado Espada has a built in auto playing system

Rockin5

Granado Espada definitely.

Press a button in game and go to sleep.

It attacks and heals for ya.

Wake up a couple levels higher.

traquena

im not familiar with MUD... can you show some screen shots there...

traquena

LoL its pretty obvious you havent played EvE ever. To start with if you fell asleep mining dont be suprised if you wake up to find you are not mining at all [Basicaly mining lasers work in cycles which drop ore into your cargo hold which is when you must move it to a container if your cargo hold fills up the mining lasers switch off].

 

Anyway i vote for RF online.

Joliust

Wurm way back in the day when they had the action list(or whatever it was called). You could tell it to do a 1000 things, leave the computer for a couple of days and as long as you didn't get killed by a rat you would still be working. There are a lot of other games you can macro like that but i have never seen it used quiet effectively before.

Eve Online, iv never been more bored watching a space ship fly around by itself and watching skills level up by themselves.

For any game to be considered highly automated in a genre that is more highly automated then just about any other (except maybe regular RPGs) really says something.

I haven't played RF or WYD Gobal, but MMORPGs are already very automated with the auto attack, hit/miss rolls, dodge rolls, crit rolls, evade/resist rolls, etc.  I can't help but think that if it were more automated than that would scarsely count as a game at all.  What's next? auto skill use? auto healing? auto travel?  If a game starts auto assigning me a class, race and name, then I think I would have to quit and just watch a movie.
