    i have no problem with raiding. in fact, it was my favorite part of playing EQ and WoW. however, i do hate the fact that in every game i"ve played there are certain classes that are "needed" in order to raid. i would like to see that change and give guilds more flexibility in raiding so that you...

    true the game was very item centric, but there was also a feeling of exploration in the game that was pretty cool. i still remember my first journey from felwithe to qeynos and saying to myself "holy shit this game is huge." and that was before any of the expansions.

    agreed. however i thought that leveling up in WoW was supurb while i felt that the end game was severely lacking when compared to EQ1 (which i felt was the complete opposite. leveling sucked but the end game was fun). i"d like to see a game get both ends right, where low level and end game...

    except that in WoW, pvp is mainly instanced, which is fucking gay. i don"t want to play an MMO to capture a fucking flag, i want full FFA pvp in a non instanced world with the ability to loot the people i kill; not just enter an instance to gain points. i really enjoyed playing EQ, but i do wish...

    i am not mad or upset at all. i don"t know what makes you think that. i do however blame WoW"ers for the current state of the MMO market, and that i am open about. it"s not personal, it"s just this whole entitlement thing that kids nowadays have where they feel they are owed everything and have...

    do you ever leave the house? go to the mall, the store, school, a bar, a concert, a sports game? if you do then you interact with strangers. sorry, but social interaction is a normal part of being human. doesn"t mean you have to be friends with every single person you meet, but you still need to...

    you just summed up the entire problem with the WoW community: I, I, I, I, I, me, me, me, me, me. if you cared to look up MMORPG, you would see that it stands for massively MULTIPLAYER online game. if you hate interacting with other people so much, go fucking play oblivion.

    i"ll agree with you on that. i for one would LOVE to see a new star wars MMO that didn"t suck. maybe based on the knights of the old republic game or something. i just think there is so much potential for a star wars MMO if it was done correctly. i"m thinking jedi"s where you get to choose...

    i don"t have a problem with soloable stuff in a MMO, just not the grand percentage of it like what is found in WoW. i think a middle ground can be achieved. this belief that if you don"t make your game just like warcraft then it will fail is utter bullshit. most people want something different...

    good point. ok, here are some of my gripes about warcraft: 1) i don"t like WoW because 99% of the game is soloable, in my opinion taking away the entire point of making a mmorpg. if i wanted to play a solo game there are hundreds of them out there that don"t require a monthly fee. 2) i don"t...

    please, whatever you do with your game, don"t make it feel like WoW. if i wanted WoW, i"d still be playing it. i just think there"s so much potential out there for a true "next gen" mmo. the last thing i want to play is WoW 2.0.

    as the saying goes, you don"t get a second chance to make a first impression. i truly believe there is nothing more important than the launch of a game. i know the second i loaded up EQ and started playing i was hooked. the next 5 or so years of my life were tied up in that game. i"d love to...

    i already asked curt about this earlier in this same thread...he didn"t respond i would sure love to see him come back as i feel like i"m wasting money on my season tickets. great ballpark, great hitters, absolutely no pitching.

    i think twinking can affect other people"s game play, but i also think twinking is fun as hell. can"t i have my cake and eat it too?

    fbss and fungi tunic were awesome twink items. so was CoF. my all time favorite was when i won a blade of carnage (i think that was the name of it) and gave it to my twink warrior. talk about wrecking shit! i actually liked the idea of twinking in EQ1. it made playing an alt more fun and it was...

    any solution you could think of that isn"t BoE/BoP? i just hate the fact that if i equip something or pick it up i can do nothing else with the item but delete it when i"m done. not that i have a solution to the mudflation/camping issues like you say, but was just wondering if anyone had any...

    i never boxed, but a lot of my friends did in EQ and they were amazing at it. from what i"ve seen, people usually box to do content that they couldn"t do solo. i"m just speaking for EQ1, but my friend in my guild had a warrior, cleric and druid that he 3 boxed. he was his own mini group. he used...

    that"s just my point. the problem i had with WoW was that to get to the "main boss" you had to do the entire instance, which could take hours. in EQ, i could for example in sebilis simply head to the crypt or the disco area, stay there for as long as i wanted and i can get exp and perhaps some...

    i don"t understand why people continue to say a new game "has" to have instancing to be successful. why? instancing is an automatic immersion breaker for me. it"s like one second you"re part of a massive world and the next you"ve left it and are playing another game. the other thing that i hate...

    agreed. i don"t care if there"s a limit of classes i can choose from, just give me something that i can do in the game to make my particular character feel somewhat unique. give me some flexibility with my character so that i am not warriorclone189.

    i actually like this idea a lot. if you have to level each class up separately, it"s a pretty good idea. or, maybe you can be a combo of a couple of classes, but can never be an expert at one particular class. like if you"re a warrior/mage, you get to wield weapons and wear some armor, but you...

    i don"t put the blame entirely on selig, however i believe that he knew what was going on and turned a blind eye to it. that to me makes him just as guilty as everyone else. i know people will always try and cheat, but for whatever reason baseball refused to even acknowledge that it was going...

    think this will ever happen with bud selig as commish? i mean, he"s the main reason why all this cheating happened in the first place. he knew what was going on even in the mid 90"s. the 98 season really "saved baseball" because that summer really got a lot of people reinterested in the sport...

    i wouldn"t mind a combination of EQ like quests and WoW"s. i really did like how obscure EQ"s quests were. there was no, "okay, you gave me 3 rat tails now go visit so and so in kaladim for the next part of your quest." i like that you had to figure some shit out for yourself. i didn"t like how...

    i was a hardcore raider in EQ and in WoW, and i can say without a doubt that EQ was a thousand times harder. if your guild wiped in EQ, you had to pretty much start over unless you were lucky enough to camp out a cleric in a safe spot. in WoW, you wipe, everyone runs back to the instance in...

    are you serious? you think a few gold is a good penalty? in EQ you lost a ton of exp and you could even lose your level. when i quit playing Wow i had so much gold i could die 400 times before it would even put a dent in my bank account. dying in WoW is a joke. you die, ghost back to your corpse...

    i agree 100%. the only MMO i ever played where death actually "hurt" was EQ1. there were no graveyards or ghost runs. you died somewhere far from your bind point, and it was your ass. you had to pray you could make it back to your corpse and not die again along the way, or that a very kind pally...
