Played MMO's since AC in 99, which still ranks #1 on my list. Played WoW and Warhammer, now trying out Fallen Earth.
Outside the box, I play Aussie Rules Football for Reading and Great Britain, am an avid reader of heroic fantasy, enjoy martial arts and fantasy/sci-fi movies and spending time with friends.

Originally posted by Jakard How in the world is this game not Free to Play yet? Like seriously... ....because unlike many games available now - AC is worth paying for.

I disagree with the OP. The last several years have shown us that the MMO playing community will jump on the wagon of the next visually pleasing game, give it 1-3 months, then if it isn't worth the money or the time, go back to their game of choice …

I was so unhappy with the article that I was compelled to write a detailed rebuttal: Opening paragraphs regarding graphics: Yes, it's old. Yes, there are vastly prettier games out there, which have been visually polished to the point of perfectio…

Originally posted by Xero_Chance [trolling] My best time playing Asheron's call was never playing Asheron's Call. [/trolling] In all seriousness, this game should be F2P by now. This one has no excuse for staying P2P. We all know Turbine can han…

Glad you've got into the game, but surprised at the "lots of grinding" - I've rejoined the game recently, found myself a decent allegiance, but quested my way until almost 100th level. A few repeats, but certainly not to the level of going back to t…

The focus at Turbine has moved away from Dereth to the more publicly-recognisable D&D and LOTR, so I don't anticipate AC3 ever - and maybe this isn't a bad thing. The game we remember is and always will be a classic - massive landspace, open w…

Originally posted by Ataaka From huge mansions down to the single-dwellings, nothing changed much except for the addition of apartments. They were merely single room storage sheds that one could place a limited amount of trophies and furniture. W…

Originally posted by Zooce Well written article. Great topic- hope you will look at Asheron's Call next.

Hi Kiterunner, sorry to hear you're having troubles - where do the problems arise? For me it was all about getting to the screen with the connection and patch bubbles along the bottom and the right side (patch) bubble never filling. I solved this by…

To expand on my original post, here are some more detailed thoughts on the early levels (1-30-ish) in the game. A great addition to the game is the Facilities Hub, or Quest Hub which Turbine have added in to give low level characters access to app…

i'll jump on the "too many to remember" bandwagon... * Getting through the Three Towers to pull phat lewt from the yucky key chests * Making it through to the SIK chest at the end of the Qualabar Lugian citadel, using my brand new Silifi …

A site I've been checking is www.asheronsguide.com - decent coverage of stuff, but mainly around skill check percentages and character templates. If you want one of the best sites from yesteryear though, google Maggie the JackCat. In the UK, the…

I've just started again after playing in the late 90's for a few years. Had loads of trouble before with the old connection tech, but in now and loving it as much as I remember! The spell system has been simplified significantly and there is no lo…

There would be a lot more players back online if Turbine would update their server tech to handle modern broadband! I've exhausted 3 trials jumping through hoops with port forwarding etc but to no avail. My old hunting group are all poised to rejo…

Items should have some form of decay, but allow repair like in Diablo. If you repaired yourself, the item lost max durability, but if you took it to the master smith, it could go on forever. Items shouldn't be indestrucible without a specific purpos…

I've been keeping loose tabs on Rift and liked the sound of the talk and the look of the game. I was particularly interested in the character customisation. I participated in the most recent BETA event and largely enjoyed the experience. There wer…

I'll go along with some of the general sentiment - usually, if you're hacked, it's nothing to do with the company running the software, it's something the hacked person did or didn't do that causes the issue. If you want to be more secure, you can…

Originally posted by BioNut Yeah, lets let the soloers play EVERYTHING in the game. Every quest, boss, raid, wigit, whatever but then lets make each of these experiences scale depeneding on the number of people in the party. And I don't mean scale…

It is amusing though the number of posts on a wide variety of forums from players basically amounting to "I was told it would be all new and improved". The complexity of making even fairly small scale changes (skill tree, pathing etc) in a game of…
