      Here is another classic example of people that lack intelligence or just dont know how to read, so allow me to once again to _hold your hand_ and point you in the correct direction. In the event you dont understand what _POST_ means;

       

      POST = After 

      So with that out of the way, please re-read the title of this thread, i didnt say _PRE_ level 22, i said _POST_ level 22 and even added a +

      I sure hope WAR doesnt have this persons type of intellect in their community, or we are in trouble!

      I was reading post by post in this thread until I got to this little jewel from the OP. I didn't need to read any further as his "games I play list" summed it up. At least it did so for me.

      I have played every game on his list, as an MMO gamer I find it's my duty to at least TRY every MMO on the market, you never know what your missing if you don't try it kinda thing.

      Lets see we have EvE - The best sandbox MMO to date - where 80% of it's players have what I call the "Burger King Syndrome" or "BKS". They want it their way right away. Which is why they are playing the only real viable sandbox game on planet earth.

      Ryzom - Ok....

      Entropia - Why anyone would play this game I have no idea... It is a game designed around those people who would pay real life money for game world shit.....

      Guild Wars - 1 of the top 3 PvP games in the last decade - however it's free to play system detracts from it as it is 98% comprised of whiney kids. Gimme  should have called this game Gimme Wars (Gimme is southern speak for give me).

      Sword of the New World - Ok so this one might have had a tad of innovation behind it. Still a very weak F2P MMO however.

      Minions of Mirth - which at it's very core is an asian MMO grinder.

      And EQ2's Bazaar - another place to sell digital items for real money.

       

      So... from what I can tell the op need 1 of 3 things to play an MMO.

      1. It has to be free (Ryzom, Guild Wars, Swords of the New World, Minions of Mirth)

      2. If not free then must be able to make money playing it, (Entropia, EQ2)

      3. It must give the "BKS", ops way right away.

       

      Well, Warhammer doesn't fit into any of these. It isn't free, you can't sell your items, and it isn't a sandbox, you can't have it you way. You can have it how the devs made it for you though.

       

      My suggestion is just keep doing what your doing, real MMO's aren't for you. Only 2 real MMO's you have on your list are EvE and EQ2 that I would recognize as MMO's. Go back to playing 1 of those, make you some real money off your phat lewtz.

       

      Anyway guess I better go catch up with Jeremy AKA tehpwnerer and work on my "Uber Micro". /sarcasm off

       

       

      Its too bad there are always people like the above poster that lack the intelligence to see the big picture, then again it could be young age and just lack wisdom!

      Rank 25 now, I have to say I'm not enjoying the sudden grind. I have been running back and forth between every tier 3 zone to try and complete every quest avaiable for chapters 12 and 13 except a couple of the RVR ones, I'm now running out of quests and only halfway to 26.. scenarios are taking ages. I don't like grinding PQs but, I guess I have no choice right now before moving on to the next chapters. Wish there were either a few more quests or better XP rates for them..

      Oh, and I'm not a powergamer. I've been exploring every zone and have been taking my time to enjoy it, I just agree that there is a slowdown here..

       

       

      This is correct, XP doesnt seem to scale with level post 22+

    • How WAR made me realize what a subtly brilliant game WoW is

      Only idiots compare a mmorpg to WoW. Have you ever noticed how they claim that a billion dollar MMO is the only way to "out-do it" at their own game. I can already see that this game didn't have the income WoW had and that's understandable. This game in comparison with all the real MMOs (sorry this does not include WoW) is highly above expectations. In other words, look at the bigger picture and for once in your life; stop being stuck up douches.

      In other words, WoW in its league of its own. Only reason its there is because of the income spent on it is highly above average, unlike the majority of others.

      Personally, I just find it sad that WAR beats the living shit out of WoW in PvP. Hell, who likes PvE anyway? eewww.

       

      Just for your education since you seem abit _OFF_ the budget for World of Warcraft (WoW) was way less in the tune of several millions compared to the cost to produce  Warhammer Online (WAR).

    •  To OP,

       

      Any MMO company reguardless of genre that gets paid millions of dollars and then tries to make millions more in revenue from monthy subs in my opinion should NOT be trying to clone any game, much less the grand-fathers like UO and EQ, instead for that amount of money they should be innovating something new and unique.

      Think about this, back when UO and EQ came out _THAT_ was innovation, it was different, addicting and new there wasnt anything like it around (not including single player games) however in todays MMO market, game developers have opted for the _EASY_ route in money making and tend to clone and copy what _THEY_ think is hot and appeals to all, in todays MMO arena it happens to be WoW which is the MMO leader, and unfortunately all other MMO game companys try to emulate that which in my opinion is a mistake!

      The whole MMO genre needs something new and refreshing not the same ole same ole, its amazing how much money most of these developers along with the artists, designers and musicians get paid yet the best they can come up with is yet another clone and then expect us to pay them a monthy fee!
