Taken from Allakhazam. Go Blizzard! Looks like they've hit mega paydirt. This should be enough to turn the heads of SOE and Squeenix no doubt. -------------------- "Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid.

Having a big opening day dosent mean shit if the game cant retain the numbers. If WoW has the lasting power is yet to be seen. Since the bnet kiddie hacker tards were running rampent in the betas. I am going to guess they will have a large impact on people staying aboard. All the games blizz has released online have suffered severly from the fucktard problem. Since PvP is built largely into WoW (even on blue servers) it will be interesting to see how the griefing/corpse camping/fuck others over in any way possible because you are a retard, kinda things impact people after the "newness" wears off.
note: This isnt a bash on the game/blizz, i really enjoy their games and hope WoW does well. But after playing a large selection of MMOs and seeing people all hyped because they launch big then bomb after 6-9 months. One gets to be a little wary, even from someone like blizz. If blizz takes the usual "too godamn long till patch" routine and the pvp suffers from major grief problems. This game will suffer badly. CoH has already proven its worth for people to turn to. As well as EQ2 will be trying to show its not a giant steaming pile of shit as well. Time will tell how these go, but i have some concerns about WoW that have been a plauge for past blizz games. |

So much anger ... Anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering. Seriously though, time will tell. At least it's lotsa fun right now. ^w^ -------------------- Aviendha: Human Rogue

I agree with SaitoH, so maybe the world will be eaten by Galactus sometime in the future, the fun is to be had right now. I cannot worry about future events.

Hey, at least levelling isn't anywhere near as murderous as FFXI.

I'm starting to feel somewhat interested in trying this out. Only problem is I'm still enjoying FFXI somewhat and It would have to be one or the other for me.

Unforunately, we are located on what seems to be the most populated PvE server on the Eastern tab (and possibly anywhere). I've been stuck in queues a couple times waiting to get logged in and that is really no fun. I suppose we should've jumped on a server with a less "cool" name but oh well, what's done is done. Though, perhaps things will begin to get better as some players flock over to the new servers that were just put up. -------------------- PSN ID: USF_Tailgater

I agree that Stormrage is pretty crowded, but aside from the queue, having a lot of people around is a good thing. Bryn and I have characters on Hellscream as well, due to Stormrage being down a few times last weekend, and it was pretty desolate. The beauty of this game however, is the fact that you can have characters on many servers, and it feels like a different game when you go from Humans in Azeroth to Tauren in Kalimdor. You need to break free of the FFXI mindset, where it was only viable to have one main character.
You may as well at least make a character on Stormrage. Try a different race/class, I bet you would find it interesting. |

both of my brothers are on the BoneChew server I believe...if anyone is interested.
They are on a P vs P server in the Pacific area. The game looks cool, the graphics and game play are cool. This is more simple than FFXI in general I take it. I may not get into this game because of so many other things going on and school...also I am playing around with FFXI...I am sooo late, I got on the FFXI game after everyone else...just like PSO...hahahaha. Anyway, this game really rocks! ~☆ -------------------- Level
