Q1 releases

StellosStellos Member UncommonPosts: 1,491

There is going to be some serious MMORPG competition in the Q1 releases of GaH, VSoH, and the CoS.  These MMORPG are not all going to be what they've promised to be, not all three can be supported by the MMORPG fans.  Which one is most likely to flop?  Which one is most likely to show early success?  Why?

I feel VSoH will make a huge impact due to their new features and new concepts that MMORPGs have been lacking.

I feel the CoS will flop because I don't feel there is a loyal following and many innovative features.

Let me know what you think..

  • LOL Define "new" features.

    Nothing coming out has "new" features.

    Of those games, I think Vangaurd will do well but I liked it better when it was called Everquest.

    Vanguard and Age of Conan are the only games that interest me right now (sort of). I think maybe I'm just desperate for a new MMO. But they're not good enough for me to pre-order or sit outside a game store for. I'll give them a couple of weeks. Which sucks because who doesn't plan for a day off of work when a new big game releases? I know I do, but I'm afraid that won't be the case 2007, or 2008, and maybe even 2009.

    And THOSE are the one that I show interest in, so you can imagine what I think about WAR lol. GaH could have been good. Seems to lack content.

    It's a shame that one of these games will rise to the top, not because they are the "best", but because we all are desperate for a new MMO and will "settle for anything". and THEY know this.

    Do these companies read thier forums and forums such as this one? There's a long list of what we want from a game, yet, we're not seeing any of it.

    New features, I see nothing that isn't in the MMOs that are out already.

    If they can't think of anything new, why not bring back the old. I know I'm waiting on a game that offers a skill based system sandbox. I can only sit in my EVE spaceship for so long it's time for some real interaction.

    I think GaH will be pretty good because it seems pretty cool, a roman MMO :D, but the classes seem basic.
    If VSoH is all its really cracked up to be, i think it'll be a great game.
    I havent read much on CoS, but from what i did read it didn't sound all that great
     
    I hope these 3rd generation mmorpgs are really going to be a new era in mmos, what im really looking forward to is WAR, i loved the warhammer games

    Well nothing that is extremely different, but they will be putting in the diplomacy concept, long/meaningful travel, and a different housing situation than what I'm use to.  Moving and buying house plots that are more relavent to the land you are in other than a teleportation to a home far away in a distant land. 

    I also am very desperate for a new, dominate MMORPG.  I also do not want to pre-order anything until I see how the first few months go;)

    I agree and I think there are a lot more people feeling the same way. As far as not running out there and buying it the second it's on sale. Defanately not pre-ordering games coming out. Hell if I become a statistic.

    About land plots. Are they money sinks like SWG? I mean does your house suck down you're bank? or do you buy it outright and that's it?

    I really really want to believe a good game is coming out but I dunno. I'm a long term player. I don't want to switch games every year or 2 years. Like if there was still a SWG, I'd still be playing it. you know what I mean? I don't want a WoW, and play it for 2 months then looking for a new game. I haven't tried WoW but from what I hear, why waste money on something I won't like after a few months of playing, weren't those called console games? Plus, I don't need a deposable game that is only for kids learning thier first MMO.
