Are there any MMOs with FAST PACED ACTION?


No, I don't mean Guild Wars where battles in PvP are just long repeats of the same exact animations and skills over and over and over again. No battles that just drone on and on. WoW has that, but I quit because of the horrendous repetitiveness and grind. I remember that I used to be able to duel players higher level than me and win because I was more skillful, and lose to players lower than my level because they were more skilled.

Don't give me any of those Korean grindfests. GunZ is a grindfest, yes, because you basically use the same weapons over and over to gain levels until you buy a new weapon which is just a more powerful clone of the old weapon.

By the way, I am looking for a FREE game. However, I'd be happy if you told me a P2P game that really does have fast-paced action against other players.

    guildwars was you best bet if you wanted the RPG part.

    though just plain mmo/mo counterstrike.

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

    Auto Assault fits the bill very well.

    No it doesn't the action in Auto Assault is very slow.  There aren't any games that fit what your looking for.  Maybe Warrock; or the upcoming Cabal Online but thats it.

    That makes no sense to me at all. I found the action in AA chaotic and constant.

    Aw, I knew it. Thanks anyway! I thought that Auto Assault would have slow combat!

    Damn... I'm going to try Trickster Online on Monday because it seems pretty stable.

    you make a thread just to say this ? attention #$%^#

    you can see other player health & skills casting in guildwars , you dont like it , becose you suc , not becose of what ever interface fails.


    Who the flying fuck are you to make such dumb inferences? I unlocked all the skills for Priest and Warrior in PvP mode. I am 3/4ths done with unlocking the Elementalist skills. Did I ever mention anything even remotely close to shown health/interface? I'd probably fall asleep on the keyboard and die to another player in GW because of the slow ass combat and the repetitiveness of the skills. Also, I said that I QUIT WOW. Can you read at all? Your grammar is on the tramp side as well. Go suck on a rat's tail, loser.

    Yeah, World War II or Planet side seem to be the answered for what you're looking for.

    What deserves to be done, deserves to be "well" done...

    Rakion (bad lag tho)

    Space Cowboy (fast-pace action, game slowly turns into a grind but u can simple go nation war and pwn other planes, altho equip > skill)


  • lysandinglysanding Member Posts: 154
    asherons call 1 has the fastest action
  • RanddRandd Member Posts: 409
    If your looking for a MMOFPS you can try out Warrock. Its currently in beta, i only tried the fps part of it but there is vehicle/aircraft combat also. Dont know about launch but right now its f2p.

    Huxley will more then likely fit the bill your looking for when its released, but thats a ways off yet.

    Depends on how you look at it.  In a way, action games refer to player action.  A RPG can be full of fast paced movement and animation, but it's not an action game if the player is just sitting there, holding the mouse button down, watching automated dice roll.  In an action game, the player's heart rate goes up a lot more, as they navigate the game mechanics, aiming, dodging, timing shots, coordinating it all, etc.

    Auto Assault can almost be played while taking a nap.

    When I want a single-player story, I'll play a single-player game. When I play an MMO, I want a massively multiplayer world.

    I told you no grinding Korean games where you grind OTHER PLAYERS for levels. I have played Rakion and Space Cowboy. You grind against other players in Rakion using the same techniques and the same tactics on the same characters over and over. I remember that you could adapt to other players' playing styles in WoW in order to beat them in a duel. You'd have to modify your strategy every time.

    Oh, and do any of these games have a SKILL TREE? I love those

    Get your dry, crackled, Maple Story kissing lips off of this topic. You don't know any more about mmorpg's than a rock does.

    Very nice and accurate! That is exactly the type of action I'm talking about. I need to be able to FIGHT instead of just having my battles fought for me. Those kind of battles just drone on and on (Guild Wars)

    I dont think any MMORPGs fits ur category then...

  • abacusabacus Member Posts: 11
    Space Cowboy Online is the most action based MMO i've played.  You're always flying your space ship shooting things down, and the PvP is intense!  It's pretty hardcore, so I wouldn't recommend it for the faint of heart, but for those that can handle the fast paced action, i highly recommend this game.

    Auto Assault and Asherons Call both have fast paced action.

    Playing a blaster in CoH was very fast paced for me, especially at higher lvls. However once you hit lvl 30, it's a pretty bad grind.

    If you want fast paced PvP action AC1 was always awesome, the community is a little dead now and it can be a huge job lvling up

    But if you want some real intesnity when you're fighting other players then there it is!
