    This is hilarious coming out of the #1 fanboy for AOC considering how terrible Funcom is as a development company and how completely out of touch they are with the community. I mean seriously you don't believe this crap do you Protus? You have defended to the death one of the worst companies in MMO history and you are going to try to call out one of the best? Yeah right.

    Oh, just laugh at Protus like the little kid who wants attention. He's already admitted that AoC has problems. When you lose your #1 fanboy, you know your game is bad. I think he's just trying to keep the "AoC fanboy" ruse up to confuse people, or because he's already got that kinda rep around here.



     

    I am no fanboy of anygame I just believe that Funcom and AOC is the best thing out right now. Maybe in 6-12 months War may prove to be close but you really cant come close to where AOC is at right now. Blizzard even admitted they lost 60% of their sub base to AOC so that means only 40% returned to WOW. AOC has proven time and time again that it is the best and will continue its dominance for a long time to come

    They didn't lose 60% of their sub base.  That would be 6 million players.  AoC only sold 700k copies.  Think before you post.  What they said was that of the people who left only 60% returned.

    Hahaha! that is pretty funny, now seriously. Well if you are serious that is fine, if you think you got a great game with AoC, enjoy, nothing wrong with that. Don't expect too many people to agree with you though.

    The Protus-AoC in MMORPG.com is not the same guy in AoC forums. This one here is an imitation :) The other one is also an extra-hyped fanboi but that's another story.

    After all his other posts an after reading that.. im compleatly convinced Protus-AoC smokes crack. Probably provided by FunCom.. I mean they gotta give something out to keep even hard core aoc fanbois around cuz its defenetly not the game.. lol Im thinking they give him a free rock for every person he lures to aoc. Doubt anyone is taking the bait tho and hes going thru bad withdrawls.. thats why hes comming up with insane stuff like "wow lost 60% subs to aoc" hahaha

    I'll give him an A for effort but an F for the crack induced tactics.

    Edit: Ohh... and.. 60% of wow would be like 6 mill. aoc didnt even sell 1 mill and most of those people left so they got like what? 200 or 300k sub base? NEVER smoke crack and do math at the same time!

    Um we are talking about WAR here Protus not AoC. I hope your being sarcastic because what you said is EXACTLY what your precious AoC is doing POST launch. They wouldnt even admit to major issues like MJ did pre-launch.

    God I really hope you are being sarcastic in this post. If not it doesnt say much for you.

    He has to be being sarcastic, otherwise I want what he's smoking..

    memoir its time you back off ! You have been proven wrong!  Then its time to stop!
    the senseble thing to do for you now is to apologise . That's it. And beside that duck and cover!
    both War and WoW have global cooldowns. Both games have exceptions to their global cooldown. All major internetsites and wiki's including WOWs own do mention WOW's cooldown to be 1.5 second. This proves you wrong, case closed.
    nb to everyone else , i failed my coolness diceroll here, and joined the fray. Itdoesn't happend that often that a troll do make my angry. But twisting words this way , sigh
     
     



     

    it was me that pointed out that GCD of Wow was not standard 1.5 like Mythic stated.

    And other have clearly showed you are 100% wrong. The blizzard FAQ says its 1.5 with a couple exceptions.  Why must you insist on being right when you are CLEARLY wrong.

    Various classes and the new spell haste ability ARE in Wow and vary this old GCD standard.

    Two classes and one class it its in a specific form. Useing spell haste as an argument is flipping retarted. The 1.5 second cooldown IS THERE. Reduced by an ingame mechanic does not mean the base of 1.5 seconds is not there. Its there regardless of how you want to spin it.

    I suppose WAR likes to be compared with old Wow, well they are up to WotLK.

    Again, Blizzard clearly states in there FAQ that except for rogue (they dont even mention cat form for druid) the global cooldown is 1.5 seconds.  You are a complete fool to keep trying to use an ingame mechanic to argue this point. Not everyone in WoW even has thoes ingame mechanics. So try to twist it all you like, your still wrong.

    And the variable GCD is here to stay and IS in the game since months now.

    Again. As an ingame mechanic. Not as a base mechanic. The base mechanic is 1.5 seconds as CLEARLY stated by blizzard. Why do you continue to try to argue what the developers themself say?

    So if anyhing it was ME who said "talking Paul" was once again to speedy in his talking.

    Yes it is you who try to twist everything Mythic is doing and has done with WAR to protect WoW. You have even gone as far as to call Blizzard themself liars. Your ignorance astounds me.

    He better let the game do some walking instead of talking about other game's mechanics.

    You really should stop talking now. You have been proven wrong at ever step. Somewhere in your little fantasy world you know all but in reality you dont know jack squat which has been proven over and over.



     

    Its time to grow up memior. You make me feel like I am talking to a 12yr old know it all which I am not interested in anymore.  You continue to argue FACTS when they are clearly showed to you.

    Seriously, why don't you just go back to the AoC forums, and blow FC's trombone some more.  

     

    I find it amusing that you actually believe your insight means anything.  The developer you've defended hundreds of times has done so much damage to the MMO community that the phrase, "I've been Funcomed, or I am not about to be Funcomed again" is used regularly even in the official forums. 

    You've already been proven incorrect with your assessment of AoC so many times that your credibility has already been damaged beyond repair.

    This is the FIRST time that I see a bland lie from a designer in public !!!!

    Cooldowns of Rogues in Wow are standard 1 second. This is commonly known. Not 1.5.

    So his UI of his interface shows 2 seconds, but it "really" is "1.4" according to him.

    If he even lies about another game's cooldown how much can you trust this ?

     

    The GCD in WoW for everything except rogue and cat druid(rogue form) melee abilities is 1.5 seconds. It isn't a lie, there is just an expception to the rule.

     

    Yep as a former feral druid I happen to know this is correct.

    I think I'll put you on /ignore - you are clearly impaired.

    I won't even consider AoC a legitimite MMO unless they add an expansion worth of content to for level 50-80 for free.  That game is an embarassment and no company should ever be allowed to get away with what they did, how they covered it up and lied, and make any kind of profit.

    OMG ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!

     

    I have never heard of this Protoss Zerg guy or whatever, AoC fanboi, whomever he is, BUT......this thread gave me more LPS (laughs per second) than any kind of DPS I've ever seen in any game. 

    Can one person seriously BE so screwed up as to sincerely believe what he is SAYING?   No.

    You know what....NO ONE is that stupid.  NO ONE.  You have to be smarter than that just to wake up every morning, so personally...I think he's just saying what he's saying because he needs attention.  Poor wittle fella.   It's heartwrenching.

    Someone please give the child a cookie and a warm fuzzy and pat his wittle bottom.  He obviously just needs some maternal nurturing.  Mothers that raise children like that, make me want to knock them square in the jaw with a 2 x 4.  The mother, that is....not the child.

    It's okay wittle fella....here's a cookie.....go on home now.  Go play in the street with all the other little ones in your neighborhood.  It's safe....go on.....

    I see trolled people everywhere, they don't even know they are being trolled.

    The real sad part about the AoC mess is that sure I quit the game, but I'm out 80 bucks and I have no recourse to get my money back because everyone has their "opened software" return policy these days.  I mean imagine if Microsoft tried to sell an Office product that didn't include half of whats on the box.  You would see a class action law suit brought down fairly quickly.   Since it's a game people just tell you to stop playing it.  To me you are still buying a product, and whether or not it's fun for you, it should have the features listed on the box period.

    ----

    Beyond that it's good that Mythic is acknowledging the big problems, and should be working on fixes.

  • Pretty sure Protus_AoC is a a guy who stole that  name from a AoC Poster and impersonates him to make fun of everyone on both sides. 

    Since the dude on the AoC boards is/was such an extreme and silly fanboy people are willing to believe he would say even the stupidest stuff so its the perfect cover.
