A lot of people complain about end-game content. Okay, what did the other major MMO's offer 3 months into the game as far as new content? Anyone? Bug fixes were mostly all I can remember for games like WoW and EQ2 - and WoW was pretty much quest gri…
It's amazing how heated people get over the subject. To me ganking was killing a player who had little to no chance to win against his/her attacker - an imbalance of levels/abilities that clearly spelled out a quick loss for the person being ganked.…
Let's see...last count was roughly 10 million peeps worldwide, so I guess some people still do. Laugh all you want, Blizz is laughing right back: All the way to the bank.
It's only 4250 for flying if you have at least honored status with any trainer that you can purchase the skill from. Between that and the drop to 100 gold for dual spec things have become quite a bit cheaper in game. Yeah, 4250 ain't THAT much of a …

To use your example, an NPC offers you an opportunity to kill 10 rats and you say 'Sure, rat killing is my thing' and progress down one branch of the storyline. Option two you say…
Originally posted by brostyn I think it has more to do with the fact that the "story haters" are just skeptical that a compelling story will not be in the game. Instead we will get a bunch of pointless drivel on why we have to collect 10 rat feet. T…

TL;DR
Why hate improved storytelling via questing in MMO's, if it isn't because you think quest gameplay is perfect as it is in current MMO's?
Because is it r…
Until you've had a chance to really play the game, it's all conjecture. I'm not going to let nay-sayers OR fanbois to convince of anything, I'm going to wait until I see how the game pans out for ME. So I shell out $60.00 and one month of sub time, …
"Now on to GW2 which will be persistant because they realized their mistake in making GW 1 too instanced, More people prefer a persistant world..."
Pretty much a matter of opinion, not an established fact.
Many people enjoy instancing becaus…

Hello all,
I've been reading some stuff about Aion, I also played in the chinese Beta, and had preordered it but decided not to purchase it after all and have played it a little in the c…
You start out by wanting a statistical breakdown of all canceled subs on all MMO's. You finish off with a paragraph openly bashing Aion with little else to use as a comparative, save for AoC, which you haven't even played. I fail to see how your pos…
The game fleshes out differently for everyone playing it, including the OP (if he does bother to do so).
To the OP: There's really no way to predict how the game will go for you until you try it. If you're scared of wasting your time, don't bothe…
The only true answer to the issue of bots being so rife in this game: a sufficient, petition-reactive number of GM's per server to flush them out and deal with them in a timely basis. Since this doesn't appear to be an option NCSoft plans to incorpo…

I find it funny that people in gamer forums spout 'facts' about the success or failure of any MMO's, considering they're not privy to the actual numbers (i.e. active subs, total number of boxes sold, total number of players that have quit the games…
Warhammer was great in concept but only ended up so-so in the end. End game suffered massively from extreme lag and instancing that was hit-or-miss imbalanced - basically a crap shoot. In the end it became focused on the gear, just like WoW. At that…

Unfortunately too many people are using the WoW model of Alliance/Horde to compare to WAR's Order/Destruction.
Best to think of it in the end-game aspect. Each side's goal is to reach enough in-game effort to be able to bring the opposition's …
Nvidia has 177.92 showing as an August Beta release. It's not WHQL certified but I'm going to give it a shot. I have dual 8800 GT 512's in SLI (I've set SLI mode in the 3D control panel to single GPU until I see some support documents from Mythic on…
