WoW
Anyone plan on playing World of Warcraft? ;)
|
to be honest at first i thought "doh this could be it, blizzard very first big bomb".
and im a huge fan of blizzard and mmorpgs. but now im really looking forward to it. primarily for one single reason. in an interview with blizzard one after asked what they wanted different from their mmorpg, they said something to the effect of: The player should be concerned about just gaining a new level, they should be having alot of fun doing others things and then all of a sudden found that theyve lvled up. from then on i have been a big supporter. |
I am in for sure. I have been playing Galaxies for the last few months but I am getting really bored with it.
|
why get wow when FFXI is here.

Please. Just stop. |
all hail FFXI!
hahahaha! so um.. yeah.. im gonna try to balance my WoW and FFXI time.. and see which one i like the best. :P i hear FFXI is awesome though because it actually has a single player goal along with an actual "last boss" type battle with it as well.. thats great. |
FFXI IMO is just a level-treadmill with no real style, poor graphics housed in a Final Fantasy shell.
I will definitely be playing WoW as a Blizzard game has never sucked and the style and the gameplay mechanics of it looks amazing, possibly catering to my playing preference as well. It also has the Blizzy signature touch of humor to it that I'm sure Square can't get out. Imagine fighting gigantic, detailed Pit Lords and Void Demons with a group of ragtag adventurers that don't look like Japanese supermodels :-P I'll see you all in Azeroth :) |
Absoloutly hands-down getting this game when it comes out. Actually, I'm going to take that a step further and sign up for the beta. Or even further, and break into the Blizzard offices in the dead of the night and steal the most up-to-date copy they have.
I gotta lie down. |

WoW.. If I could get on the beta, I would.. Too bad they do most of thier beta internal, and for external, you have to live in California :(
|
Yea, this is the only game i'm looking forward to now. I'm getting really really burned out on Dark Age of Camelot.
any rumors on when they plan to release WoW? i know they havn't started testing it yet, but i'd like to know the appx timeframe. |
woot, i love warcraft, though i haven't played it since like...1998. Ha.
|
just dont have the money for new computer games, and if i do, i buy games that my friends are playing.
|
wait let me see if i get this
pay money for a game and then keep paying money every month god that sounds like fun |

Don't get me wrong, I love single player games and I play them more than MMORPGs, but MMORPGs aren't a rip off unless you do it yourself. If you don't like it, then cancel the subscription. If you like it, then it's not a rip off. -Lasereth |

You get the idea. |
yeah I dont stick with MMO's unless the company makes some semblance of action resembling customer service.
i mean lets face it, you pay 50$ for the game after that the monly fee's are not for the game but rather i portend that its a 50/50 split. say im paying 12$ a month on a game, I like to think that 6$ of that is keeping my account maintained and having it save my progress every time I play, the other 6$ I would like to think is keeping people working on bug fixes and dealing with customer service. EQ has pretty good response times, but rarely were able to actually do anything to help you. but they were still the best as far as in game support. UO has shafted me more times than not SWG, well, it doesnt exist, as the most expensive MMO out there, they dont answer a single trouble ticket OR come out with any worthwhile bug fixes. infact they've released too many bug fixes that have hosed peoples installations and had to revert when they noticed half thier players just disappeared. anyways I hear really good stuff about FFXI and well, judging from battle.net, I kinda worry about WoW. anyone remember how bad battle.net was when it 1st started? yeah.......... |

i just dont think its worth it for the love of god get a social life |
I've been looking forward to WoW since it was announced. Check out www.fohguild.org for some new scoop from some EQ players that got to test WoW with their friend that works at Blizzard.

but hey, whatever floats their boat. |
yeah im a casual mmo'r probably no more than 3 or 4 hours a day.
if I had a full time job, it would probably only be about 2 hours a day. but as it is, my website, my reselling of websites, and my 3 hour a day job are all i need right now :p btw anyone wanna get some cheap as hell hosting? hehehe hah oh ok i kill me, im not funny |
Actually I still looking more forward to EQ2. I hope WOW is great though in case EQ2 disappoints.

BattleField? I have yet need to ask Tech Support, I play in games with 50-60 people... I play that A LOT. Oh I should mention Tribes2, anyone that knows me knows I have logged millions of hours into that game. There are some nifty mods which are basically like expansions for that game. I'm not here to say MMO's suck.. I'm trying EQ.. I can't do that until AFTER the account goes down. ;) I'm just here to point out that there are lots of single buy games that I have logged TONS of hours in. You said none, I just want to show different. ;) As for WoW? I dunno sounds kinda neat, but again i'm not a huge MMO player, I'll see how things go with EQ.. if its good, I might try out WoW if I hear lots of good reviews. Personally I really want to try out City of Heroes. |

WOAH first person I've ever in my entire life say this... just a question have you played EQ in the last... 6 months? |

Oh, I understand that single player games can get ya addicted. I played through Final Fantasy 7 twice with 99 hours on both files. Hell, I played SSX Tricky almost every single day/week until SSX3 came out and I bought Tricky on opening day. I'm just saying that for the time you must spend on MMORPGs, most single player games don't last that long. I had 1,600 hours on my Ranger on EQ. The average Final Fantasy game takes 40-50 hours to beat if you're a gamer. 1,600 compared to 40 is a bit contrasting! My ranger was only level 50 as well. I still had many, many hours to go. There are many great single player games out there that last a damn long time (Xenogears, Grandia, etc.), but I've never played one that I spent more than 200 hours on, much less 1600. Ha ha, maybe I just play MMORPGs too much? :) -Lasereth |
warlords battlecry 2
i have played easily 3000 hours on this game and i still play it often i do see your point about the final fanasty contrast |
yeah I gotcha lasereth.. I'm an online gamer though, so no matter how much I play there's always another game waiting :D
|
I can't wait...My dad's friend's friend is one of the designers for it or something....i haveta get in contact with him.

I've got an arch-nemisis now, it seams that you like to post against what i have to say....anyways, i dont mean to be so biast, i think WoW will be a wonderfull game, but, my excitement for FFXI is so great that i enjoy telling everyone about it, and i have had 90% positive responce, read the FFXI thread, everyon is enjoying it. Even people on this thread say "all hail FFXI" doesnt mean i cant like 2 games. But this one isnt even out yet. go check out the game, im sure one of your freinds owns it, go watch him play it. Enjoy. WoW will be a good game, I trust blizzard as much as i trust square, blizzard also has a better track record with games, ive boght and enjoyed ALL of them. Unlike Square. Either way, out of lack of money, ill have to just play one MMORPG. |
I will get it if it gets good reviews. I've never played a MMO game before, but I have spent countless hours playing Warcraft3 and Diablo2LOD online.
|
FF11 is a good MMORPG for people who are new to MMORPG, thats about it. As far as WoW, well, that will most likely be the best thing in MMORPG history since UO based on the time invested in it as well as the things I have read about it.
|
i'll be all over this like white on rice.
i'm lookin forward to have a good MMORPG to play again. i quit EQ a few years ago and havent found a game that has really taken ahold of me like it since, but there is no way i'd go back to EQ, it was DEFINITELY time to leave that sinking ship... |

----------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is a new WoW update for those who don't check the Blizzard site every couple of days. Trolls and Gnomes have been added to the Town Hall and there is a Tradeskills page hidden away. edit: removed crankiness |
I plan on playing WoW. So far from what I've seen it looks like it may be good.
|
I some some WOW screenshots yesterday and I was very impressed from an aesthetic aspect.
