• • WoW graphics really that bad?

    I can understand why people don't like the graphics... but the music?! WoW has some of the best music I've ever heard in a computer game.

    And for the guy above - I would agree with you on the character models. They look pretty awful. The new models they've used for the Vrykul are much better.

     

    Ewww that's about the last example I would use ^^

     

    I really think it's just a difference in taste. I thought AoC characters looked "decent" I really don't like the way WAR characters look (scenery is nice though), I never liked the way EQ2 characters looked either. It's hard to say why but for me WoW character models appeal a lot more. 

     

    The difference that a lot of people describe is probably those who look at technical and those who look at style/art. Technically WoW models aren't that special (though movement is very well done in my opinion but that's a slightly different argument), but style/art wise they make up for that completely (For ME!). It's just going to be very subjective. EQ's characters and armors were clearly miles above WoW technically yet I never thought they *looked* better.  It actually more than half the time made the characters not seem part of the world at all.

• • there does nt seam to be an influx of new players with the lich king

  • As someone said, even the WoW battlechest is still always in the top 10 since years now, there's new blood every day, once the basic boxes start leaving the top list is when the game will really start a decline.

• • It's got to be all about the OPEN WORLD RVR (and I called it)

  • I think the answer to this may highly depend on *if* they can get the fortresses fixed. If those are fundamental issues they may not *want* to pull people into ORvR. The achilles heel to full blown ORvR has always been *what* can the server handle.

    Even if the fortress thing gets fixed, if you start pulling people to ORvR and they actually do leave the scenario's by the wayside, what kind of numbers will OrvR be seeing? Will those numbers even be doable? If it's not ORvR will never be the thing it's all about, not because they wouldn't want to, but because they can't.

    My account was banned for "Allowing others to access your account"  after being hacked, and all my gear stolen off my charactor.   I logged on  a week after getting High War Lord befor TBC, and my guy was stripped naked,  I opened a ticket, and my account was banned.  It was awful.  I vowed never to return to WoW,  but often wanted to.    I just never did it because Everyone had years of work ahead of me, and it would take a long time for me to catch up.  I didn't feel like spending a year trying to catch up.

     

    Firstly you don't spend a year catching up in WoW, the gap isn't that huge anymore.
     

    Secondly your account being banned for what you say is perfectly normal. You have to report it as being hacked (and out of your control) at which an investigation starts to ascertain true ownership and *after* you get the account returned to you after sending them the needed info do you ask your stuff back etc.

     

    Any chance your ticket only involved asking back the stuff you lost? Because then you missed vital information for them.
