What MMO should the Community play?

[Isphera]

There has been recent discussion in the community for its members to take up an MMO, with several good candidates being put forward, such as WO, GW and the best choice (IMHO), WoW. So this is just a prelim poll as to what people are currently thinking that we should play.

I should probably say that this isn't definitive and the winner may not be the one we play, but this poll will show where people's ideas lie at the moment.

So vote, discuss and suggest.

(I added MMO's we had not discussed in case anyone had a case for them)

Warhammer online is already fairly decided, if people want to play GW again just say and we already have people playing WOW, so Poll kind of invalid.

Oric: we don't want to play WoW

Plus, I'm perfectly happy playing WAR with just a few people like Bloo and Hutch if need be.

[Bloo]

This thread is kind of just a useless attempt by Oric to try and gain power, and the other thread had the word 'new' in it, ruling out both WoW and GW.

You mean you dont want to play WoW

See post in 'that thread' to get my opinion on this. And how can I get power from this? And why would I want it anyway?

[spawnofebil]

No, we as in most of the people who have already posted to the effect of 'wow is shit lololol'.

We don't want to play WoW, we're perfectly happy to play WAR, any questions?

WARNING LOOK AWAY IF YOU HATE THE TRUTH

See post in 'that thread' to get my opinion on this. And how can I get power from this? And why would I want it anyway?

You gain power because we'll be goaded into playing Alliance on Maelstorm, probably helped and in your warped power crazed mind, indebted, we'd all be playing WoW and thus also your over-inflated ego will grow from us doing something you geek over.

And why you want power, LOL FUCKING LOL!!!!! Geez, only since like 3rd year with Morph have you been wanting power.

We have said time and time before, we want to play something new, something NONE of us have done before, we want to enter a MMO as newbies, not twinks or folks who already know what to do kind of. For that reason WoW is not new (I was going to make that an argument in 'that thread' but decided my post had more dramatic effect FYI) - new content doesn't change the core of the game, which is embedded into the core of the game, thats the same reason most of us don't want to play GW, we know the mechanics off by heart.

We're sick and tired of listening to the Beatles, we want to hear something new, lets get some Led Zepplin on!

[Hutch]

Led Zeppelin isnt new, lets just say... Yellowcard.

[Bloo]

Led Zeppelin isnt new, lets just say... Yellowcard.

Erm... I was using bands of that era for a reason damnit.

OK, the only reason I SUGGEST The Maelstrom is that it is where the majority, if not all of the community members have characters and they are unlikely to want to start alt chars which won't level as fast as yours, since their time is split, and we end up with two groups, without the help that the 70's on the Maelstrom can provide.

I am actually against twinking and only fund my alt chars when I actually have too (i.e. Repair Bills and Skill Purchases), and that will be the same if you guys joined the game, as well as the complimentary instance boosts if you asked for it.

Whilst I agree that the core remains the same, you seem to be missing the point that just because a game is 'old', that does not mean that a game of this type cannot be new again, since, although it sticks to its core, it finds new ways of using it to create new gameplay to ensure it remains fresh and fun for all of those playing. And 9 Million (near 10 million) people can't be wrong.

Well the clever way of saying why we don't want to play WoW didn't work, so i'll use the more basic approach....

WE WILL NOT PLAY WOW


NOW KINDLY FUCK OFF.

Fucking spoilt brat...

'9 Million (near 10 million) people can't be wrong.'

even if that was true......against 6 billion in the world it's not that big a number :P
