Greatest MMO Ever? YOU Choose!

Ultima Online - Two choices for this game as it is definately not what it used to be.

Simply just vote and maybe state a reason why you voted for it!

BroodsteR · July 2004

If the game you wanted to vote for wasnt up there vote here.

BroodsteR · July 2004

Shadowbane - There's a video at aernyth.com about the Asia siege by MTV and it is so fucking cool!

BroodsteR · July 2004

Wow, DAoC is high up with EQ and AC!

doobster · July 2004

I agree how you seperated UO into two games, because they ARE two games.

I voted for pre UO:R, best game ever.

Enigma · July 2004

PacMan Mmorpg

Emilin · July 2004

Anarchy Online for me

Anything futuristic is gewd

BroodsteR · July 2004

I think Neocron was better than Anarchy Online, but Neocron died out for god know why =[

EQ by far. They have done a lot to mess with the game recently, but it really was the first 3D MMORPG, and many of the new "inovative" games out still leave out many of the things EQ got right. I just don't understand how new games can claim to be next generation when they leave out such basic concepts EQ had like falling damage, a realistic first person view, underwater action, doors that open and close, and so on. Everyone wants to correct the problems EQ has, but in the process, they often leave out the things that made it magic.

As for other fine points. DAoC had the best PvP concept I have ever seen. No trash talking, and PvP with a purpose. You could actually role play and PvP in that game without some d00d ruining it for you.

SWG has one of the best crafting systems out there. They still need to iron out things like the grind most need to undertake to make something useful (need master to really make the good stuff most of the time). The system is sound, and it allows players to make unique items. And by far the most unique and challenging crafting class in SWG is the bio-engineer. The making of creatures is amazing, and the challenge of gathering the DNA for those creatures makes it even more fun and unique.

CoH has the most fun character customization. While SWG may have the best out right now for characters that use clothing and armor in the game, CoH has an amazingly fun character creation.

I was going to possibly say FFXI, but that wasn't on the list. I might have to go with DAoC on this one. The grind is bad, the game is getting old, the servers are empty... But the PvP is really fun.

Well Motor City Online is my favorite MMO ever, but the most recent would be FFXI(how could you forget FFXI?).

Sir-Sven · July 2004

Ultima Online Pre UO:R. Greatest game ever. There is no other game to me. But it is no longer. :[

Medivh1984 · July 2004

I'm with you man, Motor City Online was still the MMO I had the MOST fun in, I've enjoyed alot of other ones, but I loved that game....too bad EA dosn't know how to run any MMO's.....they all fall apart in about a year. I have yet to see a game with that level of Attention to Detail, and Realism as far as Racing goes. I'm tired of all the racing games with "Lvl 1 Engine, Lvl 2 Engine....etc.".........with the right company behind it....like Turbine or someone, a new version of a game like Motor City Online would ROCK, and deffinitly Classic Cars! I loved spending weeks tuning a '59 Cadillac Eldarado to take down a '70 Mustang on a sharp corners track, hehe!

I was gonna try and start something near the end of MCO to maybe find people that would want to start a Server Emulator, but their forums would't work for me anymore, which is where pretty much everyone was.............ah well, that's my opinion I played Everquest longer, would have played MCO ALOT longer, prolly still playing it, if it existed! *sigh*

r1tual · July 2004

Why do people make lame polls every single day of the same exact thing over and over and over again.

You poeple need to get day jobs or find a game you like to plays o you dont have to spam forums every single day with "WOW OWNS ALL" and "WHAT IS THE BEST GAME" and other uselless things like lame flash games.

You people make humans a disgrace.

Medivh1984 · July 2004

Here, another poll that includes some other games, most of hte ones I've tried.....and MCO of course, hehe, someone really needs to design a new Motor City Online type of game, but to be successful, as well as a GOOD Company behind it, it's needs proper Advertising and Promotion (which EA neglected after release), and it ABSOLUTYL has to have the thousands of Authentic parts like MCO, I don't want Engine Upgrade Rank 2.....I want to do like MCO, and Drop a Ford 427 Block in their, choose the Edelbrock parts I want for the engine, and tune it! Anyways, you vote!

r1tual · July 2004

POint made people are just monkeys. There are no hopes for you. Please some1 launch me off this planet. Id rather drift into nothingness then share a floating rock with these imbeciles!

You guys osund like a bad infomercial or a company trying to collect poll data to sell to the game companies.

Orcc · July 2004

UO used to be my favorite MMORPG ever. I dont want to go back to it now because im afraid of what its turned into. Its really sad to see such an awsome game go so downhill. And this new Samurai expansion looks like garbage, another blow to the Ultima name.

Sir-Sven · July 2004

Yep. I agree. Totally retarted expansion. It was a great game. It was even still a good game when Trammel came out. Then it got ugly. It was better though, when there was no trammel.

sc0rp10 · July 2004

Even though I hate to admit it, I did have the most fun on EQ. The other ones I've tried just lost content too fast, and didn't patch or expand in enough time. Or they just became another grind, even with the same graphics.

But I can never go back to the crack that is EQ. Wasted way too much time there for it to be healthy. ::::01::

IHavMonocle · July 2004

I wanted to say FFXI too, but voted for DAoC instead. I liked the way the cities looked in there, but the epic battles were not for me.

FFXI was nice because my kids could watch me play without seeing too much violence, which is always a plus when you have kids.

Snap3^ · July 2004

Anarchy Online,played this 2 years

BroodsteR · July 2004

Was Horizions really that bad?

Bildgerat · July 2004

I played Horizons for about 3 months and it ran out of content and there was nothing to do other than grind, I am not big into trade skills and Horizons uses that as a big part of their economy. It was nto a bad game just not to my likeing.

RotAnimal · July 2004

EVE Online. Without a doubt!!

Best PvP, best player driven economy, best community, best everything

Signature? I don't need no steeeenking signature!1!1!1

crock · July 2004

neocron best sci -fi mmorpg ever
and best PvP too

Dekron · July 2004

Ulitima Online Pre UO-R was the best damned mmorpg ever and always will be and nothing will ever overcome its greatness.

I mourn still the shame that EA brought to that game.
