Another Noob thread. Agian intention with the post is nothing but to share a fun post in the AoC official forum. One guy just got a new fatality

Love the Noobs, they are so enthusiastic. LOL..

So good for him findin things he likes in the game..why is it so wrong for someone to be enjoying themself?
So the point of this is for you to bash someone who doesn't hold your opinion of the game and is enjoying himself. And you call him the noob huh? I think that should be the other way around. Not everyone will agree on a game and what their 'personal' enjoyment is. If the guy enjoys the fatalities or whatever then more power to him. What care of it is yours or anyone else here? None.
I *think* cobra is just trying to show that some people really like aoc... I think...?
BlackWiz got me here. I am not dissing the guys.. I just think it is fun to see that new players comes to AoC and are not aware of this very fundamental feature that the combatsystem spin about. Haters just tout everybodys ears full of BS and resultingly when their character get in a fatality for the first time they almost spasm themselves.. LOL... Very fun.. I like the Fatality moves as well. All good.
By level 15 the fatality crap was so boring i couldnt stand it. They should have given the option to turn them off. I would much rather have been able to just fight than have to watch a slow motion fatality all the time.
Well could not disagree more. Fatalities are the perfect wildcard for a combat system. Very good.
I enjoyed the fatalities too. It was the fact that the "revolutionary" combat system required me to press 5 times as many buttons as the "stagnant" combat systems that I couldn't stand.
The best and most inovative thing about AoC...nothing better than choping someone's head off and watch blood squirt from their neck as they fall to the ground. Too Bad the rest of the game sucks.
*backs away from the thread slowly*
at lvl 50 fatality hadn't lost it's charm by me but then again i just liked seeing those annoying mobs getting their arms chopped off and screaming before their head flew.
That was my favourite fatality and damn i do love to try out AoC again after my large pc upgrade but i'm afraid of wasting more money on this game, back then it was only the lack of content that was the cut of it, and the fact the friends i played with, also got enough of playing.
so how is combo system working out in pvp? is it still just instant attacks else just "auto attacks" ?
Take the Magic: The Gathering 'What Color Are You?' Quiz.

Don't worry Indiramourn, not everyone playing AoC got such splatterlust
But I do think that fatalities are part of immersion though, and that they are important in the overall combat

Ah then my bad then on my earlier response. I thought you were doing the opposite. And while I really don't play AoC anymore I still think the game has potential. One of the things I liked were the fatalities. Just a bit of extra fun to see what class does what. Herald is still my fave, heh.

Bear Shaman has a wild move where he tears the head of the guy and just toss it over his shoulder..LOL.. Man that is badass.www.youtube.com/watch
The time they take to execute on my BS kinda irritates me. Its like SMASH HIS HEAD ALREADY geese!
Edit: forgot the MY in my BS.
Some people are like slinkies, they dont really have a purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

OMG, thats when you know it's time to get a different hobby. Gaming isn't going to satisfy you anymore. I adore those fatality moves. Sooooo Cool, pluss it adds this randomness to the outcome of a fight that I really like. Some weapons have + on fatality chance while others have special fatalities stuck to them. I think this system is really good and fun to play.
Fatalities and boobs are just a cheap gimmick to get young children play AoC. I find it hard to believe that an adult (who has been with a woman) thinks fatalities or boobs are cool the 5th time he sees them. If you are one of those adults, then I feel sorry for you.
I think they're quite fun, although I did take a while to come around to this way of thinking LOL.
Personally I could still do without the globs of gore on the screen.
Lets make this thread to a fatalaity move thread. throw in some fatality moves if you have.
See if you can collaborate with this fellow on the Warcry forums, as he has been asked by Sigoya to compile some screenshots of these fatalities; as recently as yesterday. His name is Dirk and even linked to the same post as the one in the OP, so it looks like there's a common interest in creating a fatality screenshot thread.
By the looks of it, he's a little disenchanted that no one seems to support his efforts, so I'm sure he'd appreciate the support and collaboration!

Sigoya: Dirk, can you get us some screenshots of these fatalities? Images can do more justice than words.
I'd like to see the results of your efforts and those who participate.

{ Mod Edit }
Just thought you'd find a kindred spirit in Dirk and an opportunity to collaborate since you're both interested in creating fatality screenshot threads.
I hope the efforts of two like minded individuals produce great results. Good luck!
I have one good fatality, where Bill Gates finishes Gaute with a keyboard, for not implementing DX10 like he promised.
