Howdy, Stranger!

What game will you play while ya wait?


This game seems like its gonna be more then just another EQ1, it will definitley be nothing like EQ2 cause the Devs had nothing to do with that. But Vanguard is supposively EQ1 with everything that was wrong - fixed! That is what their main aim is, for their games to be improved where the other mmorpgs (especially EQ1 & 2) had things wrongs.

They also have some pretty awesome ideas such as the use of mounts, where your mount can be able to carry ur inventroy, if you are riding with your mount and  see some npc monstors who give off good loot, you just dismount from your mount leave him by the road (probably hope he doesn't get killed) and kill the npc monsters while the mount is out of danger. Atleast it makes the mount feel more realistic that way, not like in WoW where the mount just vanishes :/ ...I myself didn't like that. And by the way, supposively in Vanguard - SOH, I am sure that any npc monsters who do give off any good loot, are probably too tough for one person to handle...cause its not a solo friendly game....actually quite the opposite which makes me get even more excited for it :)

Anyway back to the title, I am not playing anything right now....And the only game I would like to play is Vanguard SOH, which isn't out yet...So I got nothing to play. Somebody recommend me a gr8 game which is fun but not long term like EQ or Horizons. Preferably an easy to learn game which is mainly all about questing and fighting. Not Guild Wars, I played that enough :P....Try thinking of something else thanks :) Cya all

    Playing EQ a bit right now, and battlefield 2. Try Ryzom free trial if you haven't yet, it's pretty great.

    I'm currently trying out the Ryzom trial. . .it's a pretty fun game to be honest.  Beside that..Dead or Alive 4 and that's about it.  Waiting for Saints Row to come out, that'll hold me over for a little bit.

    I've been playing EverQuest the most lately, but yesterday I broke down and tried EQ2.  I'm not sure if I like it yet or not, though.  I'll probably end up losing my will power and get myself a station pass- seeing as I own pretty much all the $OE titles anyway.  I'm such a hypocrite.

    I gave DDO a try, too.  I'd suggest staying far away from it.  Not fun at all.

    I'll second the last poster's DDO comments. Its suxx0r. I've been having a hard time finding a good game to distract me until Q4 but surprisingly Auto Assault has been taking up a lot of my time recently. I played it during beta and then gave up on it. After growing tired of EQ2, WoW, GW and CoV I decided to give AA one more try. I'm actually having a blast now that I've given it some time.

    Theres nothing like strapping a minigun and a macrolazer onto a truck that makes a Hummer look like a Ford Festiva then grinding a scav camp into the ground buildings and all. My main gripe was the low pop on the servers but now with the server merge theres people all over the place and I'm having a blast.

    Hopefully it can keep me occupied until Vanguard or Age of Conan drops.

    Civ4, Heroes of might and magic 5 (a little bit) some other offline games. I dont wanna start anything online because i dont want to get involved, i wanna get into VSOH, AoC or any other new MMORPG as soon as it comes out.

    I am the type of player where I like to do everything and anything from time to time.

    Nothing. I'm still waiting for Vanguard. I believe,...  It's worthwhile to wait!

    The more I hear about vanguard the more it sounds like EQ2 actually. Hopefully they do enough to distance it from that stigma and I"m really crossing my fingers that the coding will be a little bit tighter than EQ2 which is a resource hog even for top of the line systems.

    I am playing Dark & Light.  It is awesome.

    Recently went back to play Asheron's Call again.  Pretty sure this will be my last look at the old game.

    It's fun but, frankly, the graphics are so bad compared to newer games it seriously detracts from the gameplay experience on the whole.

    Well, it's had a good run, will probably exist for a while longer -- but I would be ready to play Asheron's Call 3 if they ever grow the nuts to develop it (which I think they won't).  Took a while but I finally forgave them for making Asheron's Call 2 (what the hell were they thinking?).

    I went to the local hobby shop and purchased a model space shuttle. Other than that, I'm playing CS:Source surf maps because they require no skill, which is right up my alley.

    Intereting you say this.  I am hearing really, really bad things about this game.  Don't get me wrong, though, I am very glad you like it.

    Playing WoW, some of my guildmates for Vanguard decided to play this...so I joined in with them.  It's alot funner with people you know than just strangers.  Vanguard is going to ROCK though.  Can't wait for it.
