 I read the conquest information and to me it doesnt sound massive at all.  10 pvp instances for the conquest?  Thats horrible.  I hope i'm wrong so if someone can clarify.

    Blame yourself then. No one promised a massive game so no promises broken here. The game is supposed to be fast PVP shooter and it does the job well. If you want massive better stick to older games.

    Pure instant based.

    And even the instances aren't massive.

    The AvA is I THINK at most...10v10.  Planetside FTW!

     no one claimed it to be massive?  it's being publicized as one all over the net.  Let me see, this site is called mmorpg with massive in it.  It just bothers me since game like planet side is more massive then this and it's nearly a decade old.

    this piece of shit shouldnt even be on MMORPG.com .... its FPS with a teeny bit of TF2 at best... DEFINITELY not MMORPG, unless you call the Phantasy star like "waiting area" MMO... lmao

    I couldnt agree more. 10v10? WTH. I was really looking forward to this one too. Looks like another one shot down due to poor development.

    Depends upon your definition. Where did they say seamless massive MMO? please show me the link? massive also means thousand of players playing online at same time, regardless you can see them all at one time or not. Don't complain for something that never existed from beginning.

    so any game that offers 10v10 they shouldnt have to charge a monthly fee since this shootout only on a simple map.  All it boils down to is unreal tournament with interchanging maps.

    Yes  thats what it is with  a lot more customization, on bigger scale with a lot more players and character progression. Call it MMo or whatever you want but this is not a traditional MMO, if thats what you are looking for. And that doesn't make this game horrible because you personally were looking for something else.

  • DragimDragim Member UncommonPosts: 867

    I am beta-ing it.  It isn't HORRIBLE, and the only time you have to pay a monthly fee is if you want to participate in AvA.

    AvA is a map, with hexigons.  You click on the hexigon, and you "bid".  The attacking forces have a "bidding" war and whoever has the highest bid ends up being able to attack the hexigon.

    Agencys/alliances control hexigons, an alliance all being the same color.

    Right now in beta there is pretty much 2 or 3 dominate alliances that control the maps all the time.

    The game has promise for a certain nitch of people, but I doubt it will last long.  Especially 12.99 a month for basically the same thing you can do without it.

    Exactly. people are free to spend their money on whatever they find enjoyable. And only because this game does not suit someone's personal taste does not mean that GA is horrible. Its matter of taste.

    But what am I paying money for? Where are my patches ala Planetside, or World of Warcraft? Where is my constant development team working to produce new content and fix bugs. Because a game like Chromehounds offers a lot of players (Visible or not) that are working towards a single goal, with each match affecting the overall population. Or even a game such as Demons Souls, where a player death affects the entire population. In a single player game! Or Steel Battalion: Line of Contact, same principal, but with giant mechs. Every game counts towards the overall population and taking over different parts of the continent. Do you have to pay a monthly fee for any of these games?

     

    Plenty of games offer 10v10 combat with other players also fighting at the same time. plenty of online games(BF2, CoD, ect.) have a level-up system, plenty of games(Steel Battalion, Demons souls, Chrome Hounds) offer you the ability to affect the entire playerbase with your actions. Why dont these games charge a monthly fee, are they all in essence MMO's to you as well?

    Is game officially released yet? no, so what are you complaining about? if you read some info on official website you will realise that they have plans to add a lot of content in coming months. Also you pay monthly fee for A vs A battles. No one is forcing you to pay a monthly fee.

    OH so I see now... so your saying that Modern Warfare 2 is an MMO then since there is a level progression and customization with equipment?? that absurd... has the genre "MMO" become so watered down that we call GA an MMO?? if you think its an MMO, then you really REALLY dont know what a true MMO is :P

    Look  I understand no one is forcing me to pay a monthly fee, and far be it from me to tell you what to like... but I think over 50% of the MMORPG.com community would agree that this game simply isnt truly an MMO ROLE PLAYING GAME...

    Explain to me exactly why I have to pay $13 a month for AvA battles. Can you tell me what I get for that money that other games have not offered for free?

    Dude, i told you to check info on official website. You will get all detailed information and what are you paying for. If its not your cup of tea move on to something you will enjoy. It can not be that complicated.

  • wazzap2121wazzap2121 Member Posts: 154

     My question hasn't been answered. What value am I getting from my $12.99/mo that I cannot get on other games for free?

    Why not ask MMORPG.COM staff? maybe they take your suggestion and remove Guild Wars, Global Agenda,, Warhammer Online etc games from their website? after all they don't fall in your own personal MMO definition.

  • cc170cc170 Member Posts: 146

    I 100% agree with Getalife here. So, the game isn't a "MMO" in some peoples deffinition. I consider it an MMO, and I personally enjoy the game. If you don't enjoy the game and don't want to have anything to do with it, then why post here? If you want to know about the game just go to the offical site.

    I rest my case.  This is why i feel like Highrez studios is ripping off its customer base 

  • cc170cc170 Member Posts: 146

    Why do you keep asking what you are getting for $12.99? It is posted right on the offical site what you are getting with the subscription. You are clearly not going to buy it, so why ask?

    Also, just because a game doesn't fit your personal deffinition of an "MMO" doesn't mean it should be removed from this site. It is like if you don't like a certain game why bash it?

    Yes they are, I suggest you should sue them since their customer base is not smart enough to see if they are being ripped off or not. You are their last hope. SAVE THEM ALL!!
