  • I decided to try this game out again last month after giving it a shot around launch. They've improved the game tremendously in my opinion, and I think it's definitely worth checking out if you have any interest. It's not for everyone, but it's ve…
  • Will this migration include a fresh server?   I just thought about tryingt this game out this week, but I don't want to put too much effort into it if it will be wiped in a couple months.
  • I only see DAOC showing a 14 day trial?   Do you have a link you could share showing where it is F2P?   Thanks!
  • Originally posted by Vidir Originally posted by SEANMCAD wow! this weekend pretty much 24/7 anytime I looked down at global chat it was somehow related to pvp. I think its funny because even thought this game will have pvp its fairly clear …
  • I think it's sad that people are trying to force gameplay styles based on what they believe the point of Xsyon should be.  Or wha they think is the inteded, centralized, or specific point to the game. It's a sandbox game. This means that the fucti…
  •   Ok, full disclosure - I am a Templar Knight. And, I do find it unfathomable that all of you who are proclaiming “fail” left and right, have never played an evil side in an RPG. When you played Fallout: New Vegas, did you all side wit…
  • Originally posted by DiSpLiFF Sorry to tell you guys but when you start talking like this, you're getting to old. Time to move on.  What used to be cool and hip is now lame. It's like that simpsons episode where homer's dad tells him that, and hom…
  • It has nothing to do with the generation. Like the OP said, even people his age. It has to be with the evolution of MMO's, and how they now target a different audience. You have to remember that MMO's followed the popularity of chat rooms. Games l…
  • I think a lot of us old-school MMO gamers would love to disagree with you, but can't.  I feel the same way.   The fact is that once MMO's started to cater to solo play, they lost the social aspect, which was what made them great. Now, people who…
  •  I think everyone understands that Mythic is going to let people transfer; I don't think that's the issue. The issue lies in the fact that many of us who have been waiting years for this game to come out have had different illusion of game than it…
  • Originally posted by alwayscareme Do you think that Fury is equal to wow?  is Fury 3D or 2D? I don't think what you had said is the characateristics of fury? if these are all the virtues, then  fury has  no special place. Er...what??  lol
  • This isn't anything new, mmo's have had reward systems like this for a long time; it's not specific to EA either.  It isn't worth detesting the collectors edition over. In the long run, you don't really get a significant edge over people who do not …
  • Originally posted by Arclan Excellent post Fingis.   That probably has a lot to do with the community problems today.  Another factor is current MMO game mechanics.  They do not facilitate the formation of friendships like EQ did at launch.  Bond…
  • It was a different type of game back then, not one focused on flying through quests to get exp.  It was based on having fun WITHIN a group, not just in the world killing mobs. Having the downtime did in fact give people a chance to get to know eac…
  • Cool! Thanks for the info
  • It's free to play now, so buying the actual game probably is a waste of money. I'm no sure if it comes with bonus content or not. Try taking it back to the store at tell them that it is free to play now and they shouldn't even be selling it. The…
  • True.  If I could, I would prefere to wait for the new 2008 releases as well, but I don't know how much more I can take! I've been putting off playing an MMO for WAR and it keeps getting pushed back so it's been a long time. Been playing consol for …
  • Originally posted by Recant I will attempt to answer, but of course this is just my opinion. To recreate the feeling of the original EQ, you need to recreate the feeling of experiencing something completely fresh, vast and unknown.  You need the …
  • The sad truth is, the more game companies make MMO's easier to play to attract a bigger market share, the more PK's are going to be looked at as a bad thing. Unfortunatly for us who have been playing MMO's since the early UO days,  these aspects o…

  • Bottom line, and I think most of us agree; the MMO genre is not dying.
