Any MMORPG players here?

What is a MMORPG or more precisley what is the MMO stand for?
 
ya

currently playing Shadowbane. Played DAoC for a few months ... worst game ever...
Played AC1 (best PvP ever) for 3 years on darktide
played AC2 for a couple of weeks.(another shit game)

looking forward to world of warcraft... supposed to have good PvP (I only play on PvP servers)

I was looking forward to horizons but I hear it wont have any initial PvP but I guess we will see in another 20 days or so.
 
Yeah WOW is looking to be THE game to get. Im also looking forward to Horizons. I havent played any MMORPG's yet. Waiting for the perfect one to start with, and Horizons seems to be it. Im a old MUD fan myself. Spent lots of time on text based muds, and i love em. But now im looking forward to getting the graphics into it.

You like PvP huh? Thats not really my bag, i like the adventuring part. Besides, i hate building a strong character, and then seeing it get killed by some pimple faced twelve year old.
 
Those games are geigh.

Seriously, it's time you could be spending at the gym, or with your girl.
 
Im at the gym 8-10 hours a day, i seriously doubt i should spend any more time there.

you just hate on everybody, its encoded in your dna.
it allright, we know.
 
I tried when UO first came out, but admit to being a sissy. Too much PK-ing for me. I know others have tried to deal with it so everyone can be happy, but never wanted to try one again.

I do play CRPGs a lot, though.
 
Thats why i looking forward to Horizons (i just pre-ordered it). No PK'ing at all from what i understand. Except on certain servers.

CRPG's are fun, to a point. But i like a ever evolving world, with lots of people on it :) I admit to have played Diablo II to death :P And different ultima games.

I was hoping that the new Final Fantasy game would be fun, but i've heard that they messed up the interface on it. And in addition they havent planned on a european release this year.

Star Ward galaxies is another title. But im a fantasy person. Lightsabers and the force doesnt do it for me.
 
Well, I spend enough time on boards and have been known to chat my life away when I was on ICQ and AIM. Another good reason for me to stay away from online games. :D
 
hehe, i know what you mean.
but i play games all the time. So games that i dont finish in a couple of days are always more fun :)
 
I beat call of duty yesterday. great game, but everything that has to do with WWII gets me kinda sad. Killswitch looks cool, but im a fantasy man before shooting games.
 
LOL

having 6 kids and absolutely HATING television.. it gives me something to do when my GF is watching football or survivor or some other dumb show.


Ill take the WORST orc bashing quest anyday over the best TV show.

and 2 hours a day 5 days a week is plenty of time in the gym. If you are there more than that... it better be because you work there.


Online role playing games are like being in a really cool fantasy movie or book... except you get to decide the ending and the middle and everything else.
 
use to play some. Was in AC1 and created a monarch to 1800 and then quit. Too big a time sucker.
 
has anyone played Planetside? It looks like a cool game, but I am frankly disappointed that you have to pay for it. what says you all?
 
thats how most MMORPG's are. gotta pay to play.
the cool thing about some of them, is that you can habe multiple people on one account.
 
UO- Baja. Pk madness for 2 years. Until the cheats/split worlds.
AC- Darktide. Pk madness for 2 years. Until the cheats.
EQ- Sullon Zek. PK was fun for 2 years until the cheats. Started on Tunare/blue - yuck.
AC2 - yuck.
DAOC- MorganLaFey. - yuck. Mordred.- pk but still yuck.
Planetside- Emerald. Could have possibly been the best game ever. But Sony (SoE) is a bunch of worthless bitches who ruined/ruining the game. Remember they bought they game, they didnt make it. Played only 2 months with my guild (100 strong) and had a blast. Ghosttown nowadays. Now my guild doesnt play at all. We do have many who play...
Final Fantasy XI- just came out and is a very gorgeous game world. PvP (pk) doesnt begin until March. Its fine so far, but I have played very little.
World of Warcraft - many are awaiting it.

Apologies if I missed anything.
 
i was on a cal invite team for cs a few yrs ago.. god i wasted so much damn time.
 
TAD how do you like FFXI? i cant play it yet cuz there are no european servers, and its a bitch to log on to the NA servers. I hear stuff about the interface.
 
It would be a little unfair of me to set a judgement on it right now. So take what I relay with a grain of salt.

Being used to all the other games that are so alike makes it a bit clumsy. Alot of drop down selections, so its a little slower then EQ/AC/DAoC for me(us) as of today. I am sure it will get better. Actually its getting better every time I play it. So it is a little difficult for newbies who are accustomed to thier games.

Do remember that this game is going to allow PC gamers and Console gamers to play with one another. Thats something pretty neat if you ask me.

The world is gorgeous. Alot better then EQ or AC. It even better looking then DAoC. Lag? What lag. For being Japanese servers, there is no freaking lag for me(us). But I am on cable and run very good gaming systems. But I havent heard anyone complain about lag once in game. Not once. Im sure there is some lag (especially video lag for those with poor graphic cards) but noone is complaining.

It does have a "level-grind" to it. But on limited play I got 10 levels (of 70) in just a few days while basically being retarded about everything.

AI has a few new ways to fight you. But I havent even seen any of the really impressive mobs as of yet. So I dont know whats in store, if anything, later on.

There is crafting and everyone has their own small home. The buy/sell between players interface is the best ever in any game.

You can make hotkeys and macros, which should help a lot, but I havent figured it out yet.

So far so good. I paid 50$. As of now I know its worth at least 30$. Hopefully it will continue to improve.

Bottom Line: I could have returned it after the first week for a full refund, and I didn't.
 
...

any game that forces you to group to progress is poorly designed.

AC1 and UO were amaxzing in that they offered both the solo player and the socializer a chance to grow and progress... and more imporantly ENJOY the game.


SB does offer pretty good solo options... DAOC just sucked ass. period. AC2... same thing... sucked ass.




I guess we will see how Horizons pans out... only 17 more days.
 
The way i've understood it, it is supposed to be quite possible to solo adventure in Horizons. And if you are a crafter, soloing is tthe way to go.

But like you said, we have to wait and see.

TC2 isnt SWG out on Xbox live? Or FFXI?

nope, nothing yet. exceot for phansty Star Online I & II.

Never played those before though and I'm not sure if they support voice or not.
 
hm, you not into PC gaming at all then?
Im bored outta my skull right now. played most everything and im dying to get my hands on Horizons.
 
not really, never liked using a KB & mouse and I like playing from my chair(rather than a desk) and on my bigscreen tv.
 
I can understand that for action games.
but not for a mmorpg, seeing as the community has a lot to say.

when it comes to keyboard and mouse playing, i dont mind it.
im planning on getting the zboard for playing horizons though:

"seeing as the community has a lot to say"

Do you mean to each other, in game??

That's where the voice support comes in to play for xbox live.
 
Yeah, in game.
But seeing as these games are made for several thousand people to play at the same time. voice support would probably limit the server possibilities. i dont really know, im not that technical gifted.

But there is alot of chatting in party, lots of NOC's, quests and so on. I have yet to try Xbox live or PS2-online. So i dont know how that experience is.
 
I dont get the attraction to RPGs when you could be playing an FPS and shooting fuckers in the face.

Get counter strike for xbox live and I'll show you shooting in the face.
 
Exactly!!

Lets see, spend three fucking hours walking around the world looking for something to do....


Or.

Be Killing shit right away!


FPS all the way.

Im more into the adventuring, shooting people in the face loses its charm after a while. adventuring doesnt.
 
the graphics of the ships looks incredible!
but i dont think im going to play more than one MMORPG at a time. The day just havent enough hours for that.
 
ya

looks like a cool game..

I keep telling myself the same thing .. only 1 MMORPG at a time... but there are so many good ones coming out in the next six months..

I need to win the fucking lottery.
 
I work as a PT smartass, i dont work out 10 hours a day.

I know what you mean Milo. I really want to get my hands on WOW as well. IF they ever release it that is. And Lineage 2 looks to be a kickass game.

Im guessing you are gonna play on a NA server right?
 
..

absolutely... thos ekorean players are the worst... they'll hack anything that moves and if they find out your American they'll greif kill you until you quit.

They spend 8 or 9 hours a day in those fucking cafe's levelling up their toons for the sole purpose of grief killing.
 
Im going to be on a european server. Hit me up with a PM if you wanna try an account there.

And yeah, ive heard the koreans doesnt like you americans very much. Hopefully the servers will be heavy monitored, and griefing wont be allowed to much. Luckily there are no PvP, so you dont have to worry about that. And besides, most koreans are busy with FFXI now anyway.
 
How do you like it?
I like the star wars movies, and ive played a good number of the star wars games. But i really cant get into all that laser shooting.
