Well age of Conan battles just look a bit slow.
Think ill wait to see how Warhammer looks before i go to nother mmorpg
cause i dont wanna waste weeks on crappy mmorpg.

It looks and feels to much like GW, thus the reason I prever WoW over GW is the fighting style and the small things like click to mve and so forth. I will not go for AoC. I'm also waiting for Warhammer :D

The developers of Anarchy Online and AoC are the same people (Funcom).

The only reminder to GW i have when playing AoC is: The graphics... Aoc combat style is more too Warcraft than GW (no click -> move) yet completely different since you've got direction to your attacks.

ram leeks.

If you would read that thread further, you'd have seen it gets resolved by updating GFX drivers.

EDIT: no rant, too early

Well i hear GW and AOC has no world more like dungeon to dungeon.
 
TBC is stale
Ive grinded every rep and instance
My guild also disbanded at 4/5 MT 4/9 BT probally because of AoC

So i moved along to AoC
Combat is dynamic ,response time on 400 ms is amazing ,classes r unique and healing is taken to a new level(no healbots but rather healing while u dps and dpsing to charge up ur healS)

Negative things are its instanced like GW :( and its not a true fantasy, more barbaric in style.

All round its a cool game till wotlk drops

Its funny how wotlk beta started soon after aoc was released and server pops dropped by the buck load. Its kinda nice to see blizzard being humbled at times :P

OMG NO !!!!!

Instant FAIL !
 
The instance thing has never bothered me . At least in AoC there are other players in each zone, on a pvp server that means any1 can slaughter any1 all the time, each 'instance' has respwns so its NOT like GW zones

Imo thats the point of Age of Conan (teh barbarian)
 
I also at 1st said "Oh F#%$ !!!!" "How can you call this a MMOPRG if you not even playing with everybody?". But then I thought about it and came to the conclusion of the biggest Pro's of this system.

-Imagine every single new player under lvl20 on your server in the starting city (Tortage)...your rig will pull serious amps and your fps will drop to next to nothing. You'll have to adjust your video settings every time you wanna go to the city :(

-Even though everybody is in different instances, everybody is still on the same chat system, so you could be chatting to each and every person in that area.

I decided to not go dumbstruck with the hype surrounding the new game or it's graphics. I will play this game with my free 30 days like I would play any other game, if I enjoyed my stay after the 30 days....I will continue my subscription.

But thus far, this game really does have potential and once you get used to it, you kinda enjoy it.
 
Lol, I laugh everytime I see a post like this:

"My MMORPG pwns your MMORPG"

If one looks carefully at most online games both present and past, one can see a pattern in most of them:

Lvling = Yes
Grinding = Yes
Quest: Get x from this and take to y = Yes
Rinse and repeat = Yes
A few years later the game sucks and this new MMORPG pwns that MMORPG = YES

So will I try AoC = Yes
Do I think WoW sucks = No



+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Funny how we are so quick to judge something new that we are sold on and yet we just need to look to the past when the old was the new to see that we are simply repeating ourselves ...........
 
No. There are different instances of the same place. If you venture out you will still see players like any other normal MMO. Imagine in WoW, Everyone in shatt is doing the same quest in 1 spot. No chance will you be able to play, thus it has been instanced
