Blizzard Releases Diablo 3!

Guild Wars wasn't released by Blizzard, though some of the A-Net staff are behind some of the Blizzard games. Guild Wars is a pretty bad game though, and if a real Diablo 3 ever comes out then it better be better than Guild Wars. Even Diablo 2 and Diablo 1 are better than Guild Wars.

    /agree

    Even all the spell's remind me of D2.  Fire storm - Sorc Blizzard; Flare - flare; Ice, lighting, everything...

    Remember in D2 the Pally's aura thing? (I think pally) That smoke type ring circling his waste?  My elementalist in GW had the same spell.  "Chant auro of regeneration" or something.

    Except,

    I had more fun in the first 3 days of D2.

    The guys behind Guild Wars are the guys behind Diablo.

    Educate yourself a little bit about the game and you'll find out that what you're describing is pretty much exactly what you would have expected.

    I could care less if it is Diablo 3 or not. When I played the E3 for everyone event I realized it wouldn't be like an MMORPG.. so by then, I was hoping it would be like a Diablo 3.

    Next time you state an opinion on a game it better be better than this one... It might b a lot like Diablo but really, quality assesments of a game in alpha as if it were the game itself are just plain silly imho.

    Should I point out the millions of Diablo 2 rips that are successful MMOs? I mean MMO.com has a huge list that are JUST like Diablo 2 in an MMO world. They do well, many are better than Diablo 2. Guild Wars is a good game. Sure it has some elements like Diablo 2 but it is very much it's own game. STOP COMPLAINING. If you don't like it you don't like it. If you want to tell others why you don't like it please let us know in an intelligent post.

  • PuoltryPuoltry Member Posts: 956

    Its a free per month game what did you expect?I mean really its just another overhyped underproduced game.
    People have been talking this one up for a longtime.Its free (aside from initial purchase)so more than likely it wont even be updated that often.

    Want to ENJOY an mmo?

    Dont start a guild and dont be a leader or volunteer to be coleader or captain.

    Just play the damn game:)

    OMG OMG OMG...
    did you see warcraft 3.. it was just like Red alert 2.. OMG they ripped it.

    did you see the GUI?? omg, its almost the same, i meen their is buttons.. oh and you control many units, and build buildings.. they ripped it off.

    Oh and the new warhammer game is a rip off Warcraft 3~ omg, you got units, and you upgrade them, and you have strategies.

    One would almost come to think they are in the same Genre?
    oh wait!
    they are... maybe its the same thing with RPG's?

    Omg, some of you guys are such morons. A monster drops gold, what do you want to hear? last I checked thats what it sounded like. Maybe you would like it to sound like gun shot, maybe a cow "moo"?
    lol... They are both RPG's ofcourse they are gona have similarities. Also the fact that many of them worked on Diablo will influence them.. Anybody could tell you that.. its like saying Starcraft is too much like Warcraft.. Ofcourse they would be, they are made by the same group of guys, so ofcourse they are gona do stuff the way to like to do it. And that tends to stick with them.

    Wow another Crocksucker post... for those who dont know Im the official Anti-crock post guy....

    Hes always bitching... He's waiting for Guild War and he dont like when we say GW is just another Diablo online. GW is fun but its a lot closer to Diablo then WoW.

    Seriously I never read a single positive post from Crock... I guess someone waiting for Diablo 3 is the best opinion when talking about mmorpg...

    I love your crock :P

  • DrunkyDrunky Member Posts: 46
    I didnt even played GW buti got to say something here...everyone that say   "The folks behind D2 are the same as GW" should take a look at this : http://flagshipstudios.com . These are the real genius behind D2....so inform yourself before saying sh*t like that...

  • InyarInyar Member Posts: 157

    Did I say something about Ryzom ?

    I know Diablo is good game, so is GW its just not really an mmorpg. I did tested GW and played Diablo.

    Again your not able to defend yourself properly

    defend from what?
    ::::12::::::01::

    tell me why rysom is more mmorpg than gw ?

    or grinding to lvl250 makes one RPG from MMO?

  • InyarInyar Member Posts: 157

    Defend = Prove your point, bring argument, try to prove im wrong.

    Stop talking about Ryzom when its not the subject. Go play EQ1 or AC1 or DaoC, you'll see why Guild War is not a true mmorpg. Its more of a online Diablo, more ack'n'slash then RPG.

    and i playd daoc

    ac2 too

    eq1 and ac1 didnt coz grafics..outdated

    tell me ur definition of mmorpg?...its grinding to high lvl..camping..or something else?

  • InyarInyar Member Posts: 157

    A MMORPG is a game centered on character progression in vast, multi-player world. A world where you can actually use your head to analyse the games mechanic. An mmorpg is more realistic and complex while a game like GW is more about action and simplicity. Yeah every mmorpg include grinding, people complaining about grinding are missing the true aspect of mmorpg : community and having fun.

    And if you think you dont have to use your brain to play : Have you ever played FFXI, I did for 9 month, I played a lot with Asian players, believe me we were lvling twice as fast then most groups. Anyone that played FFXI and grouped with Asian know what im talking about.

    GW combat is more complicated ..u dont push only one attack to kill a mob
    and in PvP u always need more brain than killing AI mobs
    An mmorpg is more realistic and complex while a game like GW is more about action and simplicity.just count how many different spells has GW and how many rysom...and the spells arent thesame
    not only more damage at higher lvl
    Yeah every mmorpg include grinding, people complaining about grinding are missing the true aspect of mmorpg : community and having fun.yeah community ...who told u GW will have no community?And if you think you dont have to use your brain to play : Have you ever played FFXI, I did for 9 month, I played a lot with Asian players, believe me we were lvling twice as fast then most groups. Anyone that played FFXI and grouped with Asian know what im talking about.no idea about FFX! ..i played lineage 2....is a good game
    could be perfect without so much grinding and farmingsure u use ur brain to play lol
    u use ur brain for everything if u r human
    xept maybe killing thesame mob for xxx time
    that is kinda reflex lol
    example from typical group hunting in rysom
    mage cast fear on mob to pull it
    another mage cast blind spell
    and the whole group bash the mob wich cant move only with one attack ( the best what u have at ur lvl)
    repeat the same xxx time
    how much brain u need to do it?)-------------

    IMHO GW is a well made NWN mod. (AT THE MOMENT).

    The game is still in alpha stages so alot can change. Mind you, my opinion is only from  the recent WBE. From now till release tons could change. The devs are very active on the boards with lots of questions to the public. How many of these suggestions they act upon, who could say.image

     

    I personally don't know what to expect from GW. No monthly fee could mean a blessing or a curse.

    Either way content, quality and support will win the day for me in my choice of MMO game.image

    There is a large thread over on their  boards, maybe you should post how you feel about GW there also. image

    image Piss bitching and moaning is kind of pointless if the right individuals don't read it.  So id grab your ego mustard and go paint their boards yellow and help raise the bar. There are alot of emotions and energies passed around these little reply conventions of sympathy and correction.  Make noise people.

    Post a link to these types of forums on their boards. Maybe someone would listen and you peeps words would do some good, and maybe change something if presented in the right fashion. Just My opinion.image

    I played GW, combat is not complicated at all... again try FFXI if you want real challenge in combat, ack'n'slash is not hard.

    just count how many different spells has GW and how many rysom...and the spells arent thesame not only more damage at higher lvl

    Ok so more spells = u need to use more brain ? totally false

    yeah community ...who told u GW will have no community?

    IT does have one...

    no idea about FFX! ..i played lineage 2....is a good game
    could be perfect without so much grinding and farming

    WOW.. I played L2, worst mmorpg ever...

    sure u use ur brain to play lol
    u use ur brain for everything if u r human
    xept maybe killing thesame mob for xxx time
    that is kinda reflex lol

    Every good player know what I mean.. they are smart and dumb players


    example from typical group hunting in rysom
    mage cast fear on mob to pull it
    another mage cast blind spell
    and the whole group bash the mob wich cant move only with one attack ( the best what u have at ur lvl)

    You like to bring Ryzom back dont you ? anyway i dont see the point here.. And that cant be done since patch 1, it was a flaw that allowed people lvl too fast. But they had to observed and try different option to find the flaw.

    Anyway it cant be done anymore. As always you know what your talking about....
