Surprised you didn't include Best Crafting, for me it would be SWG.

Yeah.. That was my bad, as I rushed typing the post.. I had intended to include crafting.. But will save that for my next multi-topic..

Best Mounts/Vehicles
Vendetta Online - This may seem like it's from way out in left field, but manning a turret on a multiplayer ship and fighting another group of players in a similar ship is FUN. It's arcade-y fun. It's Star Wars-y/BattlestarGalactica-y fun. The ships have multiple hitpoint areas, so you're actually gunning for specific areas of the ship while the pilot tries to maneuver to the best vantage angle and... you gotta gotta gotta try it.  

I loved Earth and Beyond, but never managed to get any time to try out Vendetta Online.. I always hoped there would be a space game that had the multi-player ship (pilot and gunners).. Good to hear it was not only made, but fun.. (That makes one of my ideas for vehicle combat have some already-set precendent to draw from - I'll have to look into that.. Thanks)

Not to intrude on a good thread but...


7) Best Player-vs-Environment

TyranusPrime

Next thread post to include Best of: PvE, crafting, etc..

Lets hear from some more peeps on the OP subject.. Share your opinions..

MadFrenchie

1) Best Questing - ESO
2) Best Raids/Dungeons - DAoC (odd pick I know, but I think it was more the way the dungeons worked within the lore that I loved...  Also, Darkness Falls > all)
3) Best Player-vs-Player - DAoC
4) Best Social Environment - Vanilla WoW (again, another odd pick, but the sheer amount and diversity of folks you ran into/talked to..)
5) Best Housing (or equivalent) - DAoC (not a lot of experience with MMORPG housing)
6) Best Mounts/Vehicles - Tie between Auto Assault and EVE (do those even count though, really?)

1. Best questing is SWTOR
2. Dungeons and raids probably Rift
3. PvP goes to WoW because of disc priest, tarren mill, capitol raids, week long alterac valleys, arathi basin with an affliction lock.
4. Social is Star Wars Galaxies
5. Housing SWG again
6. Mounts/vehicles SWG again because of the sheer variety and functionality.
