    Yes indeed you so are So right.

     

    WOW/WotLK will have massive Siege warfare, with construction of keeps, destructable buildings, mounted artillery units, tanks, grouped formed catapults and of course FULL Air units bombing over these battefields.

    A complete open PvP land - even for PVE servers PvP is on.

    I BET Bliizard will put it in completely READY and playable at launch.

    Just look at the info Blizzard gave on IGN.COM

    The only thing is .... you don't find this info on MMORPG.COM ...

    And we ALL know why..... Wow haters :)))

     

     

    So true as well though....  haven't seen the tank where multiple people can be on it and use the turrets ect.  but the air combat looked funny enough in the preview, i'm kinda nervous what will happen when they make a full preview of the full combat zone with the tanks and the fact, people can transport others on their mounts (GREAT idea btw!).

     

    I kinda know i'll be back playing WoW, when WotLK comes out. Blizzard knows how to make things fun, even if you think it's a grind, which in it self is strange.

     

    I guess Blizzard didn't "pay the rent" on mmorpg.com or something hehe.

    What's immature about boobs and decapitations exactly? Is that a personal view perhaps? What about elbows and fishing? Is that also immature?

    What about movies where they show boobies. Are they immature as well? I'm pretty sure I saw both in Braveheart. Does that make it an immature movie? Don't try to push your prudeness on the world. There's already enough hypocrasy as it is.

    Some like Mickey Mouse while other like Savage Sword of Conan. I won't call you immature because you prefer Mickey Mouse.

    I think what he really meant is that you dont play a so called NEXT GEN MMO only because it got tits and decapitation , you actually need a little more content to make it fun but then again that is my opinion.

    "Indeed. Braveheart was probably the most kick-ass-movie of all time. I dont think I have any recollection at all of the plot or damn even what actors where in it, but I do recall me seeing boobies and lots of violence, so I think it was an awesome movie...hehe...boobs!" - Random 40-something-fella.

    Yah. I think using that you get to see boobs and decapitations in a game that says its aiming for a MATURE crowd as one of the "key-selling-elements" is pretty immature and oviously peculiarly off-track, foot-shooting tactics..

    Damn, I am prude. Sorry for trying to push it on you..I hope you forgive me. I can send you boob-pics if you want? As a sort of peace-gift?

    You win a t-shirt for actually understanding exactly what my point was. :)  (..or not intentionally missunderstanding my point.)

    everquest 2 sucks balls, the zone are super small, empty, you can see all of your objectives in the first 20 levels in one area, hated it.

    Again, and time will prove me correct, WoW combat is amateur and cartoony.  Siege warfare in the game will also be amateur and cartoony (do you, as a guild, own the city you are defending?  Is there any real consequence for losing the city?  Tanks?  Really? Come on.  Hey, I have an idea, why don't they add a P51 Mustang!  Now that would be AWESOME!)  PvP in WoW will fall into one of two categories:

    1) The BG, where nothing matters, everything resets, and everyone else in the BG won't follow directions no matter what name you call their mother.

    2) Open Area where things can be destroyed (and slowly grow back so the next person behind you can have the same experience), where people are only there while leveling (or ganking) because the rewards are pretty useless compared to anything that will come out of the Arena or even honor gear, for that matter (gear bought with honor), especially since BG's give bonus honor, and areas, do not.  When was the last time they have Strangle Thorn Vale weekend?

     

    Ownership makes all the difference.  I played shadowbane when it first game out, knocking down someones hards work with a sludge hammer changes everything.  Guilds own these cities, guilds make these cities, there are bonuses associated with the cities, you control resources with these cities.  When someone comes to take that away, its personal, WoW will never have anything on that scale.  The only other game out there where combat becomes this personal would be Eve.

    Except tanks (and airplanes and helicopters, for that matter) are already a part of the game and some of its prequels, and have significant history in the lore as well.

    Bah. Your point obviously is to signal that AoC must rockzor since its - in your views - itsy bitsy bugs and general flaws are nothing grander than what is reeking on the wrong side of the fence in WoW-land.
    Your (hidden) agenda/point is to state that AoC is a straw or two short of becoming as big a golden haystack as WoW.
    Thus me - and others - crying out against your bad use of sarcasm...or irony, if you prefer calling it that..cause of its weakness. Its a more unbalanced argument than the classes of AoC themselves. Its the boobies with nipples in a videogame for people nearly ever experiencing such things in real life, if you will. A sad substitute and a sign of desperation.
    If a group of persons dislikes a game you like, they must automatically be wrong and idiots? If they want something else than you want, they are morons?
    Bah.

    can you be any more of a hypocrit? you

    are trying to insult the op simply because he disagrees with your opinion yet you point that that kind of logic is wrong, honestly come on! i understand that there are people that dont like AoC but no mmo is perfect and no mmo will be liked by everyone all we want is for people like you to stop posting shit about AoC for no reason and for people like you to simply MOVE ON and play whatever game you do like and leave us alone! AoC just launched and it will get better just like WoW did and just how all other mmos did, as the OP is trying to point out

    If you see AoC and all you manage to concentrate on is boobs and decapitations then you have a childishly exaggerated interest in both. If I see a boob I don't really give a crap, but then again I'm European. I just can't see the big fuzz. Really.

    What else is there to give a game a mature rating than nudity and violence? Dirty language? Drinking in bars? Long lectures in philosophy? Of course AoC got a mature rating because of boobs and violence. It's the same in movies, litterature and other media.

    If you however had read just a little of Robert E. Howards litterature you would know that the Hyborean world is sexist, naked, violent, pulp and exaggerated. Funcom could of course make a Disneyfied Hyborean world, but it wouldn't be the Age of Conan. It wouldn't be true to it's lore and most important it would be just like any other fantasy MMO out there. I know. I've read all of REH short stories and most of the comics.

    That you see boobs and decapitations as AoC's "key-selling-elements" says more about you than anything else. And if you try to give that away as a Funcom quote then I invite you to provide a source. They've used it to sell a few more copies granted, but it isn't a key-selling-element. It's an unavoidable element if you want to be true to the lore. Yes you do come of as a prude. Sorry.

    You're quite fascinated with boobies aren't you? Of all the 14 posts you've written on mmorpg all are bashing AoC. You must have a thing against boobs don't you?

    Ah. The magical trick of steering away into a completely different direction when lacking in arguments. How boring, really.

    Watch (nearly) any trailer, designer-blog, commercial etc. and I am sure you see the two mentioned words more than once. Offcourse Funcom have proudly used them in their marketing of the game and offcourse in an immature way. Most recently I read a statement from the company where they apologized for making some of the breasts smaller in-game, and that this would be resolved soon.."You never forget your first decapitation" are other familiar words that clinge pretty closely to AoC campaigns..I and quite a lot of folks with me - cringe pretty heavily to such stupid and, yes, childish a way to market a game thats said to be meant for a mature crowd. Sorry if you feel hurt, but thats how it is.

    Why I use the words sarcastically in my posts is for a reason you are apparantly not able to understand. Ask someone else if they do.

    Yeah, the bugs WoW had are on the same level of bugs that AOC has, right......you need a memory check, because that's not even close.

    World of Warcraft is a proof that MMORPG quality should affect schedule/budget and not the other way around.

    Asking for my age, eh? Do I sense a statement that has to do with maturity here? I thought you stood above such nonsense? At least you did in an earlier post..reality changes depending on how you can draw use from it?

    If you are *really* interested in why I've mentioned "boobs" so often, I can reveal that the word "sarcasm" is involved.
