Under played race.

Dagor · July 2004

Which race do you belive will be under played in the game?

For me i'm thinking orcs or even tauren. They just don't have anything special about them that you want. Let me know you think about it

Tauren, definitely.

I wouldnt say taurens. every one i see who plays the beta has a tauren the one that i dont see alot of is the orcs. I personly love the orcs becuase there more of a brute they are pretty much tankers.

I NEED WoW

Current game-City of Heroes

based on what ive seen on the other threads is most of the dark races will be underplayed. i dont know why, it used to be the cool thing to be the bad guy in a video game.

when this happens, the maker of the game really won't do anything about it, because it really doesnt bother them all too much. this game however is a little differant in that a lot of the game will be around battles against the light and the dark.

something that SOE did because there were underplayed races, was nerf the races that had special abilities. they did it because those chericters were being played way to much because they had things the rest of them didnt. when they did this, things took care of themselvs after that and things eventualy balanced out.

I've been a gamemaster to two games. One on Everquest and another on a low graphics highly addictive game called Tibia.

On everquest I never saw an over abudant amout of one specific race/class pretty even. Now when it came to tibia where you could only chose from one of four classes it didn't get quit annoying to see all your paladin's (ranged don't even know why they were called paladins) levels 100+ while yours knights and sorcerers were 50 - 80. But like Perm said it is more of a balance thing then any other.

Gnomes will defiently be underplayed, everyone seems to hate them.

Slazer · July 2004

I dont know which race will be under played, but I know which race should be under played: GNOMES. They just look so stupid and scary at the same time. Seriously, they look like the trolls with the crazy hair that were really hot a while back, you know, the ones that were maybe an inch-2 inches high and had that crazy hair. Who would want to play a race that looked like that? I wouldnt!

Their should be a gnome hunting season in WoW

. But from what i have heard the beta is full of gnomes. They are everywhere. Worse then rabbits.

Perm2069 · July 2004

i agree, us darkies are going to have to go out some season and hunt some gnomes... and yeah, they are like rabits, small, furry... and well... maybe not so cute.

tauren - 'gnom season'
gnome - 'tauren season'
tauren - 'gnome season'
gnome - 'tauren season'
tauren - 'tauren season'
gnome - 'gnome season'

Gnomes most definately. Atleast that is the one that I wouldn't play. I can see some people playing it just for a laugh every once and a while but...I just can't create the image in my mind of someone siting down infront of their computer playing a gnome seriously. On the other hand, I can see a guy sitting there with auto-attack on just laughing his ass off at how funny the lil thing looks trying to fight a orc three times it's own size.

I really hope that it is as even as possible, though it does seem that the Horde races are loseing favor with many fans. Maybe cause the beta started with and alliance only server, so we all know more about them. Anyways the Tauren are going to be my favorite race, however unpopular they become after the first month of the realse. Im actually glad to see peopel not liking them, it will make my charecter feel all the more original in a world cluttered with human warrior and mages and NE hunters.
