New player here. What other MMOs do you play or have you played?
« on: May 12, 2009, 09:47:03 PM »
Hey everyone,  :salute I've just been playing the last few days in the 2 week free trial.  I'm wondering how everyone thinks this game stacks up against other MMOs too.


Over the years I've played:

Everquest - I didn't play very long, like a week.

World of Warcraft - Never did get past about level 40.  I forgot my password about 2 years ago and have never bothered emailing Blizzard to recover it.

Eve - Played for a couple of months.  The idea is quite good but I think the idea is better than the actual game.

World War Two Online Battleground Europe - Been playing for the last 4.5 years.

I tried LotR online. Loved their attention to the mythology, gameplay is pretty good as well, but I just couldn't really get into it.

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

None, unless you count a little dabbling in CFS and Il2 online.

I probably wouldn't even own a computer if it wasn't for flight simming.

I actually played World of Warcraft for the arena tournaments!

I played the Paladin class, which was the worst class in game (at the time). I was actually the highest rated Paladin playing Paladin/Warlock/Priest, in 3v3, in S3, in the world!!!

I wanted to try live tournaments but one of my team members couldn’t commit and there’s no way I would bother playing with anyone else. Once everyone started playing my comp, the Paladin was quickly replaced with an OP healer like Druid/Shaman, so I quit. It didn't help that the game was so unbalanced either! Plus I couldn't be arsed spending half my life running instances to get competative loot! :furious

Runescape (lol), MapleStory(due to the one in my avatar), EVE (quit), and Pirates of the Burning Sea.

EDIT: I suppose COD4 on the xBox counts.

I was over at a friends house at about 3am after a night at the bar. He shows me CoD4 on xbox live...so I log on and start trying to kill things while the room's spinning. Within about five minutes I was getting ear raped by 12 year olds. I felt more than obliged to give it back AH style! :t :D

I don't care to count how much money I've burned on online gaming over the past decade or so.

Lets see here...

Aces High 1 + 2
Star wars Galaxies
A Tale in the Desert I, II, III, and early IV. (Awsome game  :aok)
Vanguard
LOTR Online
WoW
Warhammer Online (only very briefly)
Eve (briefly)
Navy Field

Not quite MMOs, but still multiplayer:

Starcraft
Counter-strike
Day of Defeat
COD, old school  :aok
BF 1942 (still one of the most fun, especially 12v12 clan fights)
Freespace
Diablo series
Warcraft series (war 2 battle.net edition for the win  :D)

A few others that I'm missing off the top of my head at the moment...

LoTRO (still playing - Lvl 60 Warden)
AoC (quit due to lack of content after hitting level cap)
EQ/EQ2 (no longer play)
OU (no longer play but still think it has best FFA PvP)
FFXI (no longer play, don't have time to spend hours looking for a group)
AH2 (no longer play)
WW2OL (no longer play)
Warhammer (quit after a couple of months, care bear game disguised as a PvP game)
and a crap load of F2P Asian MMO's
Tabula Rasa (was actually a decent game, unfortunately the powers that be couldn't decide what direction to take the game and it died)

Eagerly awaiting Jumpgate: Evolution, Fallen Earth and Earthrise.
