LoLuMaD?

Well I just cancelled my preorder for a multitude of reasons so here it goes:

First off I have been in the closed beta for quite some time now and from the time I played it I really couldn't get hooked.  I don't know what it is but I guess my type of game switched from fantasy to sci-fi since I have the urge to play SWG again for some very odd reason.

Now I'm a pretty big crafter in MMO's and this game just doesn't suit that need for me.  I know there needs to be balance between loot and crafted works but totally taking out weapon crafting and armor crafting just put a damper on the whole thing for me.  By no means am I QQing but just stating the fact that I like to craft more then potions and add-ons for sockets in weapons/armor.  (No, planting is not considered crafting for me.)

The two classes that I was planning on playing just really aren't doing it for me now.  I originally wanted to play the Chosen bu theres just something about it that is a turn off for me (I seriously can't find what I don't like about him.)  The Magus on the other hand is really the short end of the stick when it comes to ranged DPS, so that is also a bummer for me.  I also wanted to play the blackguard but we can all see that happening soon can't we?

I'll post more tomorrow so eh, don't flame too much.

Canceling a MMO subscription and posting about it, is like voting for an American president. It doesn’t mean shit unless > 50% post about it and *actually* cancel.

Damn... I cancelled my CE too and now I m buying a SE and I deeply regret that I cancelled my CE...

... why ?. Because a friend offered me 200$ for it and it was too late. You should've wait and re-sell it, you would've make a nice profit, imo. TOO LATE ! ! !

I doubt you will be flamed man.  Honestly the reasons are kind of that the style of game you are looking for isn't WAR.  That isn't necessarily negativity towards WAR so I don't see how it would warrant flamed.

I love sci fi too.  I just am not a huge fan of Star Wars or Star Trek.  I loved SWG pre-cu though, and man I am anticipating Earthrise like a six year old anticipates Christmas. 

Either a game works for you or it doesn't.  There are hundreds of MMO's out there and most of us have only played a handful because only a handful appeals to us.  There is one out there that is for you, and a whole lot of great SciFi on the horizon.  Good luck man!

So, warhammer is not for you, oh well?

I mean,it's like saying I am not goign to play wow because I want to pilot a spaceship and be able to instill rocket launchers and stuff, and well, fire mages just aren't as close as small flying ships with lots of fire power as I hoped.

Your sig is stupid because if everybody had the mentality that their vote didn't matter then shit wouldn't get done.

There's some changes in the pipes for Magus and their mirror, the Engineer, but you should do what you think is best. Maybe come back in a couple of months and see how the game's going, you might like it more.

All that we are trying to say is that: ASLONG YOU DON'T PLAY WOW, YOU WONT BE FALMED.

QFT.

To OP.  Not sure I would have cancelled a CE Pre-Order.  Even if you didn't play the game now or at launch.  You probably will get the urge down the road.  If that day never came, you could have also made a nice penny ebaying it.

Honestly, if crafting is one of the big things you like in an MMO, then WAR probably won't be your thing.  Crafting just isn't a priority for the target audience that Mythic is aiming at.  Regardless, I wish you well in finding a game that suits what you are looking for.

Old school SWG (even CURB) would be the game for you.  The crafting was AWESOME.
