LFGame with the most mature community

DokemDokem Member UncommonPosts: 18

Hello:

I'm looking for a game with the next characteristics in orther of importance:

1. Community must be mature (this is the most important feature I'm looking for), hopefully oriented to 18+ years old players.

2. Can be played by the casual player (1-2 hours per day, not everyday) with some sense of achievement.

3. Group/Guild oriented

4.  Some PvP in it.

5. Suscription based or cash/item mall based or there is a way to buy in-game cash with real money (player market).

6. Can be playable on a laptop with an integrated video card, 1 GB RAM, win vista.

7. The game is considered of certain quality, meaning the bugs, lag, crashes are minimum, there is some customer support, updates, decent gameplay.

 

GAMES I ALREADY PLAYED

1. Tibia, from 2004-2006: great 2d game, addictive but crappy community. Nowdays botters ruined the game. Too much grinding.

2. Ragnaros Online, from 2004-2005: never fit into the community, childish graphics.

3. World of Warcraft, 2007-2009: very fun, too easy, crappy community, decent graphics. The PvE aspect, required too much time (raiding). Too much "elitist jerks" around.

4. Guildwars 2006: boring, community? Never got it. Pretty nice graphics.

5. Achaea 2005-2008: Achaea is a MUD, nice game, but it's text ;) No much skills required since you could have it all scripted.

 

IN SHORT:

 

I'm looking for a game with decent gameplay, some challenge, but can be played by the casual gamer and most importantly, with MATURE community.

 

Thanks in advance for your valuable help

    These would be my recommendations, all of which are Free to Play games!

    Magic World Online : http://mwo.enjoymmo.com/

    Checking out your previous games (all of which I have also played), I would highly recommend for you to check out Magic World Online. Fresh out of beta, awesome 2D world, I highly recommend for you to go onto the website and check out the screenshots.

    Eternal Lands : http://eternal-lands.com/

    My favorite mmorpg for about 2 years now, so I must recommend it to everyone. Decent 3D graphics, very mature community, huge open world, extensive gameplay, good updates, complex skill systems, and very enjoyable to play. I really hope you check out this game, it takes a while to really get into the game but after you play it for about a week you'll understand that it really isn't a game where you do the same things over and over, you will have to learn a lot and do many different things to advance in the game.

    Runes of Magic : http://us.runesofmagic.com/

    Essentially a WoW clone, so if you enjoyed WoW and want something similar here's a nice f2p version.

    Dungeon Runners : http://www.dungeonrunners.com/

    Another fun f2p game, try it out if you don't like any of the above suggestions.



    Best Regards,

    Austin Jackson

    DDO would fit you pretty well when it goes F2P, except for the PvP which is minimal. Community is mature, which I put down to the game being very group focused and involving teamwork.

    Thanks for the answers so far.

     

    Still looking for more input.

     

    Going to try DDO and Eternal Lands

    Looks like Eve online fits your requirements.

  • DokemDokem Member UncommonPosts: 18

    going to try the free trial from EVE, then DDO

     

    thanks for help

    Wurm Online's community is filled with many adults, the majority (95% of the people believe it or not) is adults. Very nice and the community is different than ANY other game ive played.
    2. Can be played by the casual player (1-2 hours per day, not everyday) with some sense of achievement.
    You can hop on, make work on your house.. help your village... go hunting.... terraform the ground... anything you want, although more time will help.
    3. Group/Guild oriented
    You have full villages/kingdoms. If you join the Wild server, their is Kingdoms vs Kingdom wars, where villages raid enemy villages, where all your defences are built by yourself! Very fun and alot of risks.
    4.  Some PvP in it.
    Two servers - Wild and Freedom. Wild is dangerous, where anyone on the opposing kingdom can kill you, but it is rare as you can stay within your village and work.  Freedom is safe, no one can touch you (except for animals in wild) but you can still dual and spar for fun.
    5. Suscription based or cash/item mall based or there is a way to buy in-game cash with real money (player market).
    Its a subscription based game, 10 euros for 2 months game time. Can also by silvers from the silver shop.
    6. Can be playable on a laptop with an integrated video card, 1 GB RAM, win vista.
    I think you would scrape it, you should try, although graphics will look quiet bad (Like mine)
    7. The game is considered of certain quality, meaning the bugs, lag, crashes are minimum, there is some customer support, updates, decent gameplay.
    One problem, their is lots of bugs, but these are constantly being fixed, lag and crashes are low. GREAT customer support and lots and lots of updates, and gameplay is very fun and addicting.

    Never heard of that one. Thanks for the info, I'm going to try it out.

  • XredemptionXXredemptionX Member Posts: 51

     If you are starting out, the Free server for new players (Golden Valley) is quite unwelcoming, and doesnt represent true 'Wurm'. So dont hesitate to send me a pm over the Wurm Forums, my name is 'Redeemed'

     If mature is most important, EVE Online.  It's kind of hard to get really far in that game without a huge time investment though.  It is considered very high quality by many, and Corporations are pretty much the whole game.  I myself couldn't stand the game because it's too many menus in what is a very cluttered UI.  The learning curve is there but it is a bit overrated.

  • DokemDokem Member UncommonPosts: 18

    After playing EVE for 3 days I left because I could not stand the boring quests. I found them pointless and pushed me away of what I'm sure of, is a decent game. Community wasn't mature either in those 3 days, my only experience was the rook channel full of spammers and trolls. The player helpers where pretty decent.

    I imagine as a hardcore gamer you can enjoy PvP, but as a casual gamer like me, mining and such ain't enough.

    My suggestion to you would be to find a game that you like, then build a good friends list full of mature players to work with. Then start or join a guild with others that are liked minded.. Your not, let me repeat myself, you are NOT going to find a game that is full of mature players. Just like your NOT going to go into a social atmosphere and have it be filled with mature people. I thought WoW had a decent community. Because within the assholes you can find people that are cool. Ive had the luck of being a part of many mature guilds in WoW and LOTRO

     

    You have to make the best of a community. In my experience LOTRO does have one of the best communities overall, but your still gonna find pricks there. Its just like real life. And remember, just because someone is 16 and not 18, doesnt mean they arent mature. And because someones 30 doesnt mean they're mature. Its all about the brains.

     

    Good luck, and remember to have fun!

    I haven't played LOTRO since beta but even then it was one of the coolest mmos because if you're a fan of the books/movies it all seems very familiar. It has a lot of content to make you feel like you're part of the world.

    Someone recommended Rune of Magic, which may not be the best choice for mature community. I've had problems on more than one server with people spamming racial comments or otherwise trolling in zone chat.

    That's one of the things you'll deal with in most MMOs. The best thing to do is find a game you like to play, then find a mature guild or group of friends. They are not hard to find since most larger guilds enforce rules of conduct and they always appreciate mature and sensible people.
