I am kind of disturbed to read a column like this. I will explain why I feel this way. First, I have played MMOs since the days of Ruby on AOL and Meridian59. I have seen the games like EQ and AC and DAOC and others come and go. True, there hasn…
I alphaed and betaed both.
Vanguard really stunk back when it came to graphics and lag. Horrible actually.
LOTRO has been extremely stable since alpha.
I am guessing by all the posts that mmorpg needs to rework there polling. I have 1 friend that plays EVE I have a hundred people I know playing wow. I know 120 beta'ing LOTRO and about 15 betaing Vanguard.
In my opinion the best game out at t…
It just doensnt matter. In planetside they had ads. It didn't hurt a thing. As a matter of fact maybe they will have a video card ad or something that I would like to read.
Boy could I talk about names in games. I have seen ones like Stevetheenginerr and SatanClaus even Santa. There are others that just ruin the immersion factor for me.
I like seeing names of elves like evish names should be and dwarves like dwarve…
The era they set it in is fine. I am sure they will even have to alter names and so on to make the world fit a mmo environment. Perhaps even alter the map to fill in the blanks I mean Tolkien only gave so much information to work with.
I am tired of people saying the interface is similar to wows. Go play EQ/DAOC/Meridian 59/AC/EQ2/Horizons or any number of other MMOS. Wows interface was not the best. I don't even think wow is the best game even though millions of people play it…
I tell people all the time. Try DAOC. I have played WoW heavily and have multiple 60s was in a guild with some of the top and the top pvper in the game. I, for many reasons mentioned in most of these posts left the game.
I have not seen a gam…
I am really hoping for this to be a success but they need some PR people and someone working to show us it is gonna be a great game. That is webzen though... not a high company on my list of favorites.
I recently read a article I believe it was from an editor at Mythic or some such title and she said nothing is changing at Mythic except the business cards. I am playing DAOC again after being away and playing Earth and Beyond, EVE, WOW, DDO, EQ1/E…
Ya I have 2 60s and a few other assorted high levels in wow but i disagree I think the armour in DAOC kicks butt now. I don't know if you have seen the new stuff but its nice and barding for horses shhheeeoooot. I love it.
I would beg to differ. I have played all the mmo's out on the market of note EQ, DAOC, WOW etc. WoW is a fun game. I would recommend you come back to DAOC if you haven't tried it. The new grpahics are amazing, the battlegrounds unlike WOW are tr…
It is absolutely horrid. I can not believe I dropped 55 dollars for the game and a month of play. Do you remember UO or M59? Pick one of them up and it would be an improvement. Games should be a step forward not a step back in MMOs history.
