They could do it like FF11 where you initially bump into something and stop for about 1 second then you push through it. That way you would have a bump of defence time as the zerg tried to push through the defenders.
Basically, what I and a lot of other want ed was Skyrim Online or as close as you could shove that square peg into the round MMORPG hole. That is not what we're getting in any way, shape or form. I can see this game taking the Elder Scrolls IP dow…
Personally I think Final Fantasy 11 did class separation as well as could be expected in an MMO. White mages being primarily healers, though they did some holy/light based offensive spells. With the addition of a sub-job howerver they could furthe…

Exactly this, if GW2 is going to be touted as a successful B2P MMO, then i'm sorry B2P has failed. Game breaking bugs, botters, imbalanced pvp, dim…

I wouldn't call it measley 15$, if you actually calculate how MUCH money you put in to a single game with that type of payment... (2 years sub = 360$ + expansions). Most people aren't will…
I read some of the first pages, and I'm probably just repeating what's said before, but the question has been answered many times over. I'm going to change it though, IMO people don't really hate OWPVP they hate NON-CONSENSUAL pvp. Everybody wants…
I find I always have time to play whichever game I feel like, my situation is atypical though, being disabled essentially I have nothing else to do but 12-15 hrs in front of my computer each day. This basically allows me to do whatever I want whene…

Kinda hard to say 'Diablo 3 is a failure' when it sold 10 Million copies. :P
And only 1.2 Million was through the 1 year WoW pass, so 8.8 million were $$$ purchases.
I don't think so, I'm sure the shareholders an…
Personally I hope RMAH never comes to another game. I think Blizzard blew Diablo 3 in a big way with forced DRM, no pvp at launch and forced simplification just to name a few reasons. As for a sub to play Diablo 3, I know there would be the hardco…
Originally posted by Ausare Yeah WoW really killed themselves only hold 9+ million subs for what atleast 6 years. There is more to this than just speed of leveling/content issues. Alt viability and fun, mini games, pvp fun, social aspects, difficu…
Sure Blizzard may ship it with no offline mode, I give it at most 1 month before someone like Skidrow/Reloaded/Razor1911 have cracked/engineered a work-around. Depending on popularity maybe a few more months after said crack for a Hamachi port to a…
I am so loving this game. Played 2 days straight and I only have one complaint. I don't like cheating, and the difference between what drops when you kill stuff and what you can carry is really stupid. While I realise this is a form or realism, i…

I'm sorry you see grind as content and longevity, I really am. This has been talked about before, just because a game requires you to get several thousand of XXX just to get YYY doesn't mean that it has longevi…
If they do make the UI similar to WoW, I would prefer they not allow add-ons. Nothing like elitists telling you that you need these 50 mods otherwise you're not cool/skilled enough to participate. In FFXI everyone had the same base UI and that's a…

You guys are acting like it gives someone an advantage. Its no faster than the fastest mount you own. Cosmetic fluff only. Put the tin foil hats down. You still can't pay for subscription time with ISK, I mean gold, y…
All of you people bitching and moaning probably haven't even logged into the game since they made the changes. There is more gold spam and PM's in everyone's God of MMO's WoW now then there is in Aion. If you disagree then it's plain you simply ha…
I don't think pvp is NEEDED to make a good game. The prime example of this would be FFXI, you may have 1% of the population who do ballista etc.
Having said that, I have nothing personal against consentual pvp, the only acceptable form of pvp for…

Can we get a counter on how many of these type of threads have actually been made?
I've been tired of WoW for a little more than a year now and I love Aion.
Me too, i'm not hating Aion, I love it. As I …
Perhaps too obtuse of an angle. Basically a tongue-in-cheek poke at the hundreds of WoW fans saying Aion sucks because it's not WoW 2 with better graphics. For better or worse, Aion will take time and dedication. If you don't have said time or de…
