  • Using levels is also a huge problem for MMOs designed to last.   Unless you have multiple, differing level 1-60 experiences, people aren't going to want to do 1-50 more than a few times. Hence, in each new expansion, you can't just have 1-50 con…
  • I have my own ideas for curbing the selling of gold, but I take a very different approach. My idea was to devalue items bought in favour of items quested and looted. What do I mean?   Well, say you loot a Sword of Noob Slaying for a boss in a du…
  • And just a little thinking outside the box here...   It is not against the EULA to pay people to play with you. So let's say you eliminate gold selling altogether. Instead, a company offers a service where you pay to have some uber-geared people…
  • Ok, I'm the gold seller. I sell you an item for 100pp, you sell it back for 120pp (the 20% variance you suggested).   I've gained 20pp. Do this 10 times and I've gained 200pp.   I sell you another item for 100,000pp. You sell it back to me f…
  • Originally posted by Samuraisword  I have no problem playing a MMOG where you can't gift valuable items to friends or guild mates. In fact I would prefer it since I mainly solo. Gifting of items is another way groups and guilds gain advantages over …
  • Money is used to buy things, yes?   What happens if you eleminate plat selling, I ask?   Players spend RL $ on in-game items instead. How do you stop that? You can't. You cannot stop a player giving something to another player, unless you wa…
  • There aren't enough buttons on a control pad.   In the MMOs I play, just about every button on my keyboard is bound to some function. If I had to wade through a menu system, no matter how well designed, my ability to play the game would suffer. …
  • Well, the second thing you did wrong was to make a post about it on the forums. Should have sent an email/ private tell to the mods.   As for the first thing, no idea. Not my business.
  • I don't know. Clearly your wife wanted you to have some enjoyment from the money she spent. Deleting it means her money was completely wasted.   Buying an item from another player means that money goes back into the econonmy, and could find its …
  • Is anyone else frustrated by the number of MMOs with only 2 factions? Be it Horde vs Alliance, good vs evil, or Ice Cream Salesmen vs Dentists United, devs only seem interested in providing two sides.   I would love to see 3 or even 5 factions, …
  • Originally posted by Vrika A consumer should have the right to buy the game without doing any in-depth research on it beforehand. Unless there is a warning printed on the box (or when buying from net, clearly visible otherwise), it's never the buy…
  • [edit: Must have been tired when I wrote this. It does take between 30mins to an hour to make a group, and yes, that's a long time when you think about it. But there aren't many things you can organise quickly with 6 people involved. I know this fro…
  • Originally posted by baff [soccer an] Effiminate sport? Don't your males all play Netball and Rounders?  Depends on who's playing. I absolutely detest players who make runs into the box, realise they aren't going to score, and throw themselves…
  • Originally posted by Pappy13 I understand this sentiment, however it should be noted that your anger should be directed toward SoE and EQII for changing their software to compete rather than at Blizzard, WoW or it's players for it's success. U…
  • Originally posted by erandur   You forgot the other big group, those with über-1337 machine's, and spending less than €1000! ' It's not a big group. It's less than 10%, most likely.   Hundreds of thousands of machines are sold each year. By f…
  • Originally posted by SwampRob   Originally posted by almerel I don't mean to sound crude but I thought one of the M's in MMO stood for Multiplayer. That being said, you should try games like Oblivion or NWN2. These games are suppose to give yo…
  • What do people think about class+skills?   It would go a long way towards not allowing everyone to pick the same build. However, unlike most MMOs, you wouldn't be able to max every skill in your class, and you might be able to pick up some skill…
  • Some of us are talking about low-poly, some about the style of the graphics.   The low-poly rants are coming from people with better-than-average PCs. It's time these people realised that MMOs aren't built for the top 10% who all have GeForce 88…
  • Originally posted by ParkCarsHere Originally posted by k9wazere A better question would be:   a) Vanguard b) being covered in honey and mauled by a bear.   Tough choice, tough. I take it you don't like Guild Wars... No - never played it. N…
