Score format: **UPDATED** The results were quite surprising. For those that said stuff like SWG pre NE your vote didn't count because I want your opinion on the currently running MMOs in their most current state. I'm not going to show all the MMOs that were voted for because some recieved like only 1 or 2 votes.
welp, you're not going to be counting my votes then, because there's some games that started off pretty darned good, then morons screwed the pooch completely with them.
not counted like - preCU swg (didn't love the grinding parts, wasn't totally loving the character graphics, but there were a lot of things about it that were fun.)
like - since preCU swg doesn't count, let's go with EVE, because once you hit about 10-15m SP, you can make enough isk to pay for GTCs, thereby making EVE free. the pvp is craptastic to the Nth degree; but, if you're just looking to make a merchant type toon (to include merchants which make their money by scavenging the remains of their defeated foes), then it's a decent game. the full looting keeps it interesting. the moronic PVP makes for very exploitable, um, everything. but the 'free" part is the real winner here.
second like - i'm really having an issue having games to put in the 'like' category. i mean eve is here because it's free to play, for me. I guess i'm going with ultima online. the graphics/movement are soon to be updated and it has tons of stuff inplace that no other game even comes close to reaching. the uber carebearness of it is rather disheartening, but hey, we play in an mmo-world full of carebears.
dislike - wow (idiotic grindfest supported with statements like "oh, every game is a grind". NO, every game is NOT a grind, some games are FUN. which is why i play a game - fun, and why i go to work - grind). the wife got into online gaming because of wow, so that is a plus, but as soon as they decided to move the emphasis to raiding and away from casual play AND PVP... yeah, sorry, i go to WORK for the grind, any game that expects me to WORK instead of have fun.. well it's devs have an open invitation to go to hell.
honestly, the mmo games out currently are pretty much craptastic all around. if a game has good mechanics, then it's got caca for graphics. most of the ones with REAL good graphics, have serious grind issues, or just retardness for their PVP/crafting/some major part of the game is 95% neglected.
the devs make a game THEY want to play and the playerbase be damned. if i'm wrong, then tell me everything kaplan said at the last year's E3 (last time he was the official spokesperson type for wow, i believe) and prove from factual happenings, that i'm wrong; or, quote me from the litany of emmert's lies/contradictions/foolishness from when he was the official spokesperson for cox and prove i'm wrong.
heck, even ccp makes the game THEY want to play, if not the game mechanics, then by spawning goodies for themselves and their friends on the live servers.
so as long as game devs are making the games THEY want to play, unless you're an employee, or have very low expectations; then, odds are you're not going to see something YOU want any time soon.
this is, of course, my opinion, and everyone please feel free to agree or disagree. those that disagree, again in my opinion, will likely be of the "i like to grind" or "super fan boy" groups, in which case, i honest to god in heaven above, care not one whit what you think. so go for it.
could we please get correspondent writers and moderators, on the eve forum at mmorpg.com, who are well-versed on eve-online and aren't just passersby pushing buttons? pretty please?
How can people be haters when they are giving simple opinions on what is their personal favorite and what they dislike? What was the name of the Thread again?
LOl ye registered over 1 year ago with that name and yet 4 posts, something tells me most people on this site have alt names asociated with themselves.
Indeed I did register 1 year ago for the purpose of Obtaining a Free Trial for a game. Didn't really have any interest in current information regarding MMOs until WAR and AoC were getting close to release.
Guess what ladies and gentlemen, some of use have better things to do than just cruise the net and post. A forum is exactly that, a forum for opinions. Let's leave it at that. If the data is skewed. Than it is skewed. Beware the man with just 1 book!
I fell in love with CoX with in the first 4 seconds of the game. I started playing at issue 6.
The char creator was simply amazing. I never saw it coming. After creating the char and geting through to tutorial
I action never stoped. The sounds of the city and the sites were breath taking. Its the first MMO I play that made me feel like I was in a world. Insted of a cartoon. Right away I loved the graphics. Also un like any other MMO I have played. There were nice people that were willing to help me with out calling me a Noob!! No other game have I seen that. Theres always some 13 year old little shit with 4 Caped players that thinks hes the greatest thing in the game. Talking shit to people who have first started playing and don't know anything about the game.
Over all I love the teaming aspect of the game. Like any MMO you get good teams and bad teams. But the games does a good job at making every player feel like there doing there part. Insted of some crazy over powered tank leaving everyone behind them. I like the solo ability of the game. Even tho its verry easy to find a team. The game allows you to choose the difficulty of the game so it is solo able.
I have a verry short atention spand so when I play a MMO it has to grab my atention right away. CoX did it with flying colors. Unlike wow I ejoyed the cinimatix of the game. The powers are real and make you feel like a super hero. Instead of clicking your power and watching your char do a stupid little jig and points pop up over your foes head.....[falls asleep]. I also like the fact you get your travel power at a early stage. It gives just enough time to learn not to take forgranted its a bility. But soon enough for it to be fun. Instead of spending 70% of the game moving from point A to Point B. I also thing the PVP is very well put together with minimal Ganking due to zoon lvl caps. As long as you pick the right server the Zoones are always active. I do agree that the game takes a very long time to reach cap. But it does a good job and keeping your entertained while lvling. With malt story archs and paths to choose from. I like the way the devs did a great job at making sure CoH and CoV have a completly different feel in there worlds. The CoV world is astonishing to the eye [ if there is a bad side to this is]. CoV enjoys a bit better graphics the CoH does but this also causes lagging issues if you don't have the right computer setup. Other then that I say the game has everything it takes to make a great MMO with lots of game play, the action starts right away, and the players in the game are mostly friendly and make the game that much more fun to play.
For the only game that matters to me:
Born Of Inferno lvl 50 fire/fire Cold mastery Blaster
This site is pure corrupt, thousands of people with alt names and avatars. Now i realise why i dont take anything serious on the morally corrupt, hating site. Lol if i took it seroius i would be playing Ryzom online lol
That was funny... I just read through all the posts you have ever done here, and the only really morally corrupt and above all, hate I see is from you. Not a single normal constructive or even sensible post, just a long line of abuse and arrogance about things and games you know nothing about and against people you don't know.
And really, the only thing I can see not worth taking seriously.. is you.
"This is not a game to be tossed aside lightly. It should be thrown with great force"

I'm not familiar with Harafnir's other posts but he does have a point.
On this site and others like it the forums are pretty much useless. They are full of ranting hater boys who make libelous claims in the most exagerated tones. Usually having nothing to do with the truth.
A great example is the low opinion of WoW on these forums. I find it funny I'm defending WoW (it's not my cup of tea) but there is no denying it is the most populare MMO of all time. But reading these forums you would think it's the anti-christ.
Obviously the majority of the posters here do not represent reality. The only sad part is the diservice you do to people who come here for accurate information and instead they get the sophmoric whining's of nerd boys who have been locked up in their rooms too long.
