I was thinking probably traps but undecided so far, but FF is another I hadn't thought about. Thanks!

This is going to be mostly for concept so I suppose I'll just deal with being less awesome. Thanks for the input!!!

I only played the game for about 6 months and only recently came back. I forgot that while most of the community here is helpful there are still people who will go the extra mile and forget about their own flaws to point out someone else's without actually being helpful.

I'm just glad you aren't part of the majority as it is in most MMOs.

Awesome, thanks!

True. Plus I'm sure buying it piece by piece is ridiculously more expensive in the long run. Aaaaand we are approaching xmas so maybe an early gift is in order Anywho, thanks all!

Pretty sure that was sarcasm lol

Don't get me wrong, I intend to. But as a comic geek and former wow player he was pretty stoked at the concept of player created content.

One other question, if he decides to pay he has to actually buy the game but will still get 30 days free right?

Definitely a fan of some of the ideas mentioned here... sadly I doubt we'll ever see anything close to them.

I'm still planning to purchase GR but I doubt it's going to have the amount of change I want to get me as "into" the game as I once was. This game is awesome and I am stoked for the upcoming double xp weekend but I've always had a feeling of something missing that I never felt in WoW. There's so much potential for some really cool things to happen (especially regarding PvP) and it seems the majority of the population is just too casual to want a real challenge, that's not meant as a dig on anyone... that's just the way the game's set up, it's an action game that you can play with a large group of people.

This ^ I've been playing for less than a year and I'm relatively bored. I still love the toons that I have but playing them through the same scenarios over and over is boring as can be especially given the lack of challenge. It can be argued that all MMOs are easy... but CoX takes it to a whole new lvl.

All of this too specifically the last point.

I get that PvP isn't really wanted here... but those with this view confuse me... what experiences have you had that make you think it would be THAT bad? I played WoW and Aion and never once had any of the experiences described when people whine about getting ganked or griefing. I'm sure it happens but I think it's being over exaggerated here.

Having leveled two toons to 80 in WoW I have to agree with this to a degree. The only reason it seems to take longer is if you get into leveling professions along the way. The xp return from soloing is greater and teaming and doing dungeons is even better still not to mention the ridiculous amount you get for quests.

I wouldn't say it's a LOT shorter if at all... honestly I'd say they're about even.

I'm going to play devil's advocate here and point out something that was said to me when I first started and that I see in any "new player here" thread. "This game is all about the journey not the destination"... the journey is awesome... what's wrong with making it longer?



I'm starting to notice this and it's very disheartening. I've gave CO a try because people say it's a combination of CoX and WoW and I love both games but it definitely falls short in too many areas for the time being. This is one of the best MMOs I've ever played but it definitely lacks in challenge... I basically view it as a really cool action game that I can play with a lot of people. I joined a team that was killing a few AVs one day and thought "man this is gonna be awesome" the only difference I saw in the AVs compared to the other enemies with similar powers was that they hit harder and had more hp... which doesn't make it harder... it just makes it take longer to kill them... that's not fun.

Not in CoH but this is one of the things that I'm looking forward to seeing in the new Star Wars MMO, Spring 2011 can't get here soon enough! All interaction is going to be done with voice acting along with text if you'd prefer to read.

Obviously if you're not into Star Wars or at least sci-fi it may not appeal to you but after trying SWG and not caring for it I'm really hoping Bioware pulls it off right.

I think I know what the OP is saying though and I agree, I love this game (although I've not played for a week or so while playing other games) but there's definitely something missing... call it immersive content or whatever you want to... personally I think it's challenge. Knowing who Kel'thuzad is in WoW was optional... however if you played through WCIII or new where to find the lore otherwise it was there. The difference is that he and any other endgame boss in WoW presented a unique challenge instead of just being a tougher version of the trash mobs you blew through to get to him with a different skin.

As far as the story I've seen plenty of people on these forums talk poorly of the lack of story driven content in WoW... it's there... it's just that most of the 11 million people playing it don't bother looking into it. The ease in which you can pick up and play WoW appeals to most but to really get into it you have to have played through WCIII IMO.
