Cool I guess, but look at the competition! EVE is good, the rest... not so much.

Matrix Online is still running?

lol, so CoX got pigeonholed into Sci-Fi MMO, oh well it's good publicity either way I guess, EvE kind of kicks themselves in the marketing department a bit. But either way congrats!

Well it said the list is based on user feedback. Not sure if the whole list was user based or just the ranking.

I'd like to see CoX compared against the actual competition.

(The game what's name shall not be mentioned) is not a Sci-Fi title...

but then... is a superhero that flies, is indestructable, slings webs, has mutant powers,etc... Sci-fi? Or fanatasy?

Man, what about TR? If this guy sez MxO is better than TR, I'm gonna have words.

Still, CoX is superior to all, and I say that as someone that's played all of these.

As someone who's played both, I can definetly say Tabula Rasa is better then MxO. (And I actually liked Matrix Online. I just don't play it anymore due to money and hard drive issues)

So how does CoH rate against others? Is it number 2 against WoW for over all MMOs? But on a happy note grats on being number one in sci-fi games


 

Posted

I guess that with a game that's more than Sci-Fi (would magically based heroes/villains considered to be from the realm of Science Fiction?), it's hard to pigeon-hole it.

I've known this for a while. Quite honestly, this is--and always has been--the reason I play CoH. I sat down a couple years ago to look for a good sci-fi MMO, and this was the best I could do.

And who says WoW is any better? Just bc WoW has a larger player base doesn't make it better. Just more popular. Big difference there.

CoH would beat the crap out of WoW any day of the week... well, to me they would. You see, people have a hard time distinguishing the difference between 'Good' and 'Favorite'. WoW has more people and is surely more popular than CoH, but CoH is clearly a much better MMO and is significantly less repetitive.
