Horrid game

ClintTXClintTX Member Posts: 24
I tried this game a while ago for the 1st time and I barely made it past the charactor creation screen.  The graphics are just plain horrid, anyone looking for a new MMO these days are not going to play this.  I could not make a charactor that looked anything near what I wanted.  After making my charactor I was dumped off at this beach and was quickly attacked by beach leaches.  I used my gun and it was like shooting at the aliens in space invaders.  There was a bossy GM there on the beach too barking orders at newcomers.   Planetside own this game.

    LOL.  Did you even learn anything about the game before you installed it?  If you had, you would have known that everyone thinks the graphics are weak and that the game is not a FPS.

    Don't worry. He's just a troll. He's on DnL all the time trying to say it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Was that your next step here ClintX? To say how much more people would like DnL than AO? I believe you have some proof to show over at the DnL forums.

    When I played the game, it was much more like Pac-man than Space Invaders. I perfer Pac-Man's gameplay so it was a perfect fit. But I got bored of  Pac-man. Those ghosts can be a real pain and I don't care much for Blinky.

    Uh...the beach leets don't attack you, you attack them.

    Seems like you didn't even play it. You probably jumped off the game before the first quest and came here to bitch about the graphics.

    Also, shooting like "Space Invaders" is that a flame on the graphics or the gameplay? It is auto-aim, THIS IS NOT PLANETSIDE. They are not even the same type of game so I don't know how you can draw a comparison.

    This is a 5 year old game and IMHO this is the best game out at the moment. Fortunatly, the steep learning curve gets rid of the usual people that complain because the graphics aren't UBER.

    Ah man. I could go to town but I cba anymore. This guy didnt even try to play the game and the game is currenly free for 7 months with no auto-charging afterwards so hell - unless youre on 56k and dont like mmorpgs - just ignore him and give it a blast. It has a steep learning curve but he obviously attacked something and couldnt be bothered to uncheck the ENORMOUS attack recticle in the bottom right.

    Planetside sucks - been playing it for years but never have fun on it. If you want bossy try the CR5s that tell 150 people to 'shut the hell up and get to the base'.

    I've played plenty of MMOs, noobs.  Lineage 2, WoW where I'm in an uber Naxx guild, and several others.  This game is trash.  I couldn't figure out how to get off that stupid island or I would have.  I wanted to go do some pvp but couldn't even find my way around.  Graphics are an abortion too.  Combat was terrible only autoattack with a rifle and you almost die every time.

    o_O you have played WoW and Lineage 2,you must be uber experienced in mmo's thenO_o

    Seriously dude,using those 2 game for your experience referance

    And WoW does have auto attack too,so what's your point

    If you allmost die everytime,wouldn't your experienced mind tell you maybe you are doing something wrong and need to learn the game before you judge it

    For me,you're nothing but a troll!with extreme lack of constructive criticism

    Well, that's because you obviously have a low gaming ability. It's okay, nothing to be ashamed of. Some people are good at complex games, others can only play WoW and DnL. OH! DnL!! We are still waiting over there for that proof!! You know, that thousands of people are ingame and enjoying themselves. Either stop trolling the forums or start having some proof behind your "facts". So far, every post you have made in these forums has shown you to be the "noob

    You wanted to go do some PVP, really ? did you pvp as soon as you started on L2 and WoW aswell, seriosuly your clearly showing that your a moron just by posting this nonsense, the lin ei enjoyed most was "graphics are an abortion too".

    Just to help you when you get to doing your junior school exams iv got you a defenition, it will help you when you do about morals and ethics in sex ed (your probably a bit to young for that yet so be patient).

    a·bor·tion ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-bôrshn)
    n.

    Termination of pregnancy and expulsion of an embryo or of a fetus that is incapable of survival.
    Any of various procedures that result in such termination and expulsion. Also called induced abortion.
    The premature expulsion of a nonviable fetus from the uterus; a miscarriage.
    Cessation of normal growth, especially of an organ or other body part, prior to full development or maturation.
    An aborted organism.
    Something malformed or incompletely developed; a monstrosity.

    So your basically saying that the graphics are a termination of pregnancy and expulsion of an embryo or of a fetus that is incapable of survival. That made alot of sense didnt it. No. ok well thanks for entertaining me and many others with your utter garbage post, i like having a good laugh at others stupidity.

    Better luck next time champ.

    I can see how the game would be fun though :).

    So you spent a whole 10 minutes on the game and decided you hate it because the graphics weren't state of the art. That's pretty sad.

    You do realize there's more to games than graphics, right?

    Maybe graphics is a little old but i really like it and you cannot compare AO to WOW or something because its different game. I like AO because of this what i can do in game not because of graphics.

    LOL, you wouldnt even last a second in PVP by AO standards. Why? Because your pathetic, simple mind can't even figure out how to get off the island.  Before u criticise, actually play the game, then maybe people will respect your views on Anarchy Online.
  • People that complain are a bunch of idiots who think they are so damn smart. The people that argue with them are another bunch of idiots that think they know everythign about the game and how beutiful it is for everybody.

    Truth is there are mixed feelings about games as there are mixed feeling about anythign here in life. Trying to explain to someone this game sucks or this game owns is like trying to get a snake to talk. LOTS of work and no results.

    Have you ever seen a nice woman and thought "OMG she's beautiful". You show her to your buddy and he says "I don't like her". Same thing with games, you morons!

    Some people play a game because it has amazing graphics and that apeals to them. Other play beacuse of the playability, other for the skill system and other play socially.

    If one thinks this game sucks there is no way in hell you can convince him/her it doesn't. No mather what you do.

    One can be smart when he/she talks on this forums. I ex. "The game seem allrite but i'm a graphic guy and i play if the graphics are realy cool, so i'm afraid this game isn't for me." Or "I really love this game because of the skill system that is propably the best outhere, the graphics are old but that's doesn't bother me."

    Those are discussions held by a mature people that know that everyone has a different teaste and different way of looking at things.

    Quit working yourself up over nothign and grow up.

    If anybody is worked up and need to grow up,it's you and OP

    Damn you really live in a pipedream,don't you?Where eveything is pink and blue.Let me explain it to you.When someone making a tread in a game forum for the sole reason of bashing and trolling a game based on 10 min played time,people will react!That is what you need to get over,because the OP has nothing to do with matter of taste

    And there i go again,arguing with idiot's

    Guess what... this isn't a "new" MMO. I think most people are reasonable enough to see that. It is a very in depth game, and a decent value, considering you can play for free, or get all the expansions for roughly 7 bucks a month without any charge for the client.

    I think it's pretty funny that you feel educated enough about the game to call it horrid, but by your own admission you came to that conclusion within a few minutes of gameplay.... while you were still in the tutorial area. Graphics should really be a little less important than gameplay, in my opinion.

    PS... planetisde is terrible, terrible game.

  • ClintTXClintTX Member Posts: 24
    It's no all about the graphics, I never said it was.  The GAMEPLAY was horrid.  Shooting guns not being able to kit.  The graphics being terrible were just the icing on the cake.  I could not make a decent looking charactor, they all came out looking stupid and in an MMO you should be able to have an avatar you can be proud of not some pixelated mess.  /spit on AO players /spit on this game.  I might install it again and give it another try because you all talk like it's so pwnzor.  It better be better than I remember it.  Only reason people play this game is because it's free/cheap so it's friendly to mommy's budget.  We adults, who have the money to play what we want will made a superior choice and play quality games.

    Once again ClintX, you grace us with your idiotic opinions based on nothing but your limited intellectual abilities. Anyone who checks all of your previous posts on the MMORPG.COM forums can plainly see that. Only the original game is free, the expansions are not. This game is much too complicated for you, as it takes at least a second grade education. We people who pay for quality and depth will continue to play AO. You can play with Barbie.

  • SalvatorisSalvatoris Member Posts: 1,360
    I pay for accounts for my son and myself, we pay monthly. We could be paying the same amount to play woW, or any other regular priced MMO. We have played a few others,  and I agree that initial character customization is a little limited, but the game is a constant character progression, with the ability to fine tune the look you want over time, and change it when you feel like it. If you can get over the graphics for a few minutes, look around at the toons in a crowd. You will see that there is visually a lot of variety. The range of options is so broad that if you couldn't come up with a look you liked, that would look to me like a problem with you... and not the game. ;)
