Another WoW clone

And a bad one that is. I won't make same mistakes I made with AoC and WAR Cryptic, I hope they won't screw STO that bad.
Anyway this message is for WoW players who got fed up with WoW and looking for another game. All I'm saying is just play the open beta level up your character till 20 and then decide. In my opinion this is game just another bad WoW clone which lacks features that made WoW stand up among dozens of other themepark MMOs.

Yes. We get it. You like WoW and don't want Champions Online to succeed.
Disingenuous criticism is disingenuous.
Wait...
Now this is getting ridiculous, im not playing champions but at least i had the fucking decency to play it. This game is not a WoW clone. it has the most indepth character creator on the market, granted until apb comes out, and you can customize the skills, create your own skill trees, the genre is about superheros. Its fast paced, the combat system isnt remotely similar.
How the hell can this game be a WoW clone, if anything its one of the few MMOs coming out this year that is bringing new features. If anything, its a fucking city of heroes Clone.
I think im grown tired of the people im forced to call my associates cause we happen to like the same genre.

Thanks DesertFoxx you beat me to the punch. He said what I wouldve but was nicer about it. If anything this is COX v2 not WOW.
Could you please explain exactly why it's a WoW clone? Quests and soloability does not make a WoW clone. Unless WoW turned into a classless superhero MMO overnight I don't see how it could possibly be a WoW clone.
I've been resubscribed to WoW for a few months now and since patch 3.2 in combination with CO closed beta I just don't have the will to play that game anymore. Although I knew I would quit WoW again because every time I hit "endgame" and do "endgame" stuff I always find it just garbage in that game.
Anyways the game lacks some of the features WoW has like you said, but I'm not looking for a lot of that. for the time being it is refreshing and different in this genre and that alone is fun right now. This may change in the future and i doubt i'll stick with it in the long run, but I think it will still be a fun distraction for a month or two.
I think you'd also have to revamp the combat system, as CO's is distinctly different and add in stuff like PQ's and the Nemesis system, etc etc...
Bottomline, who cares? If you dont like it, then move on. It's by no means a WoW clone. Yes, some of the base feel of the game is the same as EVERY MMO, not just WoW, but that does not prove equality. Something as simple as the setting of the game wholly sets it apart from WoW for some people.
But you aren't here to discuss the game. You've made up your mind based on a bunch of hugely generic mechanics and now you just want to fling crap around just so people pay attention to you.
Bye!
ROTF LMAO THE OP IS HILARIOUS... A WoW clone dude? are you on some type of drug from blizzard? let me see... its a wow clone cause it has missions? the combat is nothing like WoW and it is much faster and action the hell packed unlike WoW.
Damn it why the hell am I replying to this, damn I feel stupid.
[quote][i]Originally posted by Recker[/i] Dear FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD, Its a beta and not final release WOWTARD. We know your a FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD so dont bother us with nonsensical WOWTARDISM. If you want to legitly give advice or review a game do so, dont just be a FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD. Thank your for proving the FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD point of view. NOW BACK IN THE CLOSET WE HAVE GUEST COMING OVER AND I DONT WANT THEM TO KNOW THAT WE HAVE A FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD IN THE HOUSE!!! You are the 2nd of your kind to appear in these many hours. Please dont waste the space or time to say anything because all of what you said is bullshit. This game has nothing to do with WOW its not in the same class genre the only similarities is that its a mmo. Really are so bored and retarded that you have to come here and FLAME ON. Say nothing constructive and give no legitimate reason for giving your FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD point of view. We dont mind your kind. We just prefer you stay in the closet with your Pentium 4 and dont come out. If you really have an opinion you want to share please take the time to write more than 1 paragraph of garbage. I am tired of dropping buckets of water on FLAMERS like you. Now go to WOW forums and proliferate your garbage there you waste of air and space.

Dear Flaming Champtard, Perhaps you are too stupid to realize that except for a few bug fixes, what you are getting in the open beta is what you will get at release. There is not, and there has never been, any "magic patch" upon release. Sincerely, an ex-mmo player
He thinks it's a wow clone because wow was the first mmo he played, and thinks every mmo copied wow's formula since, either that or he's an idiot.
Oh I agree! It is a Bad Wow Clone!
I mean, World of Warcraft is a cel-shaded game that doesn't use classes about super heroes in the modern age with thousands of character customization costume options, right?
derp.
hmm... in that case this must be an EQ clone... because WoW took quite a bit from that game.
It is a Wow clone in that sense that Call of Duty 2 is a clone of the game "Civilization" because I install them both with CD-Roms and play them on computers and they have to do with historical time periods.
(Which is to say, that it is isn't a clone at all)
I heard they cloned a sheep once...
I am not a Champtard though i have had problems getting into the open beta because of the issues yesterday that were fixed. I am still undecided if im going to play the game or preorder it. I may wait a few months for them to fix the issues at hand. I may preorder and try and help develop the community and try and weedout Flaming Troll WOWTARDS like you. I am still on the fence. I havent followed the game in any way until recently with the open beta. I never got into the closed beta so I didnt bother participating in the community until now. Normally i am really reserved in posting but in the last few weeks i have had enough of your kind. I have had this account since 06. Thats 3 years without posting. I like reading review to help me make my decision, but when more and more of what i read is coming from flamers like you i feel my iq dropping like i just drank a whole bottle of moonshine. I think i speak for everyone that has posted on this topic so far when i say
GO AWAY WE DONT WANT YOU HERE YOU GOD DAMN FLAMING TROLL WOWTARD
TAKE YOU PENTIUM 4 WITH YOU
i dont know whos stupider the person who flamed champions are the hoards of retards waiting to bash him get over it go post somewhere useful obviously he wants you guys to blow your load and your doing exactly what he wants.

With that logic, I could argue that every game that has come out in the last 5 years was a Barbie Horse Adventure clone. I could also do it in less degrees of separation than you did there.
OP: Cheese is a WoW clone. True story.
Let's stop feeding the troll as they are having a bit too much fun here. Anyone with a fraction of a brain knows this isn't a WoW clone; no additional discussion required.
Dear Shadow,
We know. However if you ignore the Growth in the Flaming Troll WOWTARD population and no try and squash as many as possible then we will be overun. They're reproducing like rabbits and appearing everywhere I go. I am currently in development of a game myself. I plan on pitching the game to a major company in the next few months. I do not want to have to deal with people like this asshat when the time come for the beta of my game. I have poured my heart and soul into creating a game that will rival and redesign the wheel if you will of the MMO genre. So as someone who is working his ass off to create something and have a group of people such as the WOWTARDS do what they do is honestly painful. I have seen many things in my time as a gamer. WOWTARDS are going to KILL the MMO Genre. Either you are with us or the WOWTARDS or you can be neutral. Either way you have to pick a side TARD OR NO TARD which will you be.

welll i want to wish you best of luck with your game mate im sure i will play it and if its like you say i will enjoy a game such as this. and as for sides i dont side with anyone im a gaming fan not a little prick who flames games or a prick who bash people behind computers both sides are wrong but thats how this generation is. but once again good luck to you. get your story paton dont want the big companies to rip you.
I have to disagree with the OP, I find it very hard to call this another "wow clone".
I would say he is right in one aspect though, level up to 20 and then decide. If you're having fun, who cares whether it is or isn't a clone?

Is there any way to have a PayPal account setup to have to pay everyone who is a member of this site a fee for each time the term or phrase 'WoW clone' Is used? That would sure help some games get away from having to live up to a standard that has no equal, nor will it for some time.
Momo sucks, I have proof.
Grats, Syl. You got over 20 posts responding to your troll. Here's a napkin. Wipe that Blizzard nut off your chin and move on, already. Before you say it, no, I have no desire to play Champions Online, as I prefer my superheroes in the comics. Ass.
Sonjiol: lol, or give their names to Blizzard, so they could cash in every time some retard uses their name.
What isnt a Wow clone for you kids these days , really poor poor poor thread oh and wow had features ? that a new one i though it was this very generic mmorpg's that blizzard turned it into this easy little kid game .
weee because WoW isn't a mash up of other MMORPGs?
PvP/PvE/Crafting/end-game comes straight from DAoC/EQ/UO. (of course everything was dumbed down to please the carebears)
hell, their most recent change the ability to level up in PvP comes straight from that fail MMO WAR.
Even if CO is completely instanced I wont mind as long as I dont see the "Additional instances cannot be launched, please try again later" message
No matter how many times this is explained there are so many people who have only had WOW to base their experience on this will happen again and again. WOW is actually the clone and those of us who played EQ, M59, uo, and DAOC, etc know that so why argue. Blizzard combined great ideas into WOW from many games and set the bar for the formula that was already in exisitance.

Yeah, I don't understand how this genre everything is a WoW clone.
I never hear people complain about any fps's being Doom/Quake/Wolf clones.
