Who else has fallen in love with Guild Wars ?

http://www.guildwars.com/

Oh Boy can't wait for the release on April 28th.

After the second action packed Beta testing weekend
of Monster slaying, beasty fragging, spell casting, & questing I'm hooked,
for get the run around shooting peeps
I have come to love being a Ranger " Sneaky the Tart "
complete with pet snow wolf in tow, .

Hardly started on the PvP side of things even . . .

Oh boy happy days ahead, just gotta make time for it . . .

Looks pretty cool, I have to say.

Hmmmmmmm

ill stick with UO

UO Bom?

Whats that then?

Nat

Hey dude whats UO? Universal Ops ops or somethin'?

Ultima online, maybe

Open University?

Ultima? Is that like the old role play shit? Like fuckin morriwid or somrthweing?

Hang on i'll have to do a google search...

Whoa this is all to heavy. Back in a bit.

Sorry Was just the only game with U O I could think of, and looked in a similar vein to this albeit old, was pretty much the first big MMORPG I think.

Do you know that sex thing? It's nowhere near as good as this Ultima Online looks

Hold on ma Kazaa ficked up. I'm gonny try bit torrent.

Hold on gotta google MMORPG ?

Boojum, do ya know of any others? Sorry this should really be a PM. Fuck it i'm pissed.

I used to be right into this role play shit in my youth I had valhalla on the speccy

Massively Multiplayer Online Role Play Game

Never got into em myself, whenever I've tryed one I've always managed to get murdered or robbed by some level 8000 git that hasn't left the game (or his bedroom) since he got it (but part of me knows all too well that if I actually get a taste for it, I'll be that git lurking around getting a stupidly powerful character eventually...)

Dude! That's between me and my copy of dopeWars.

Dunno if it's the same kinda thing, but World of Warcraft looks kinda nice (but I'm a fan of the warcraft real time strategy games, so I may be biased). Star Wars Galaxies has been being raved about too.

Star wars galaxis? I got the Star wars battle ground yesterday. (AOE3). Fuckin dynamite. Is SW Galaxies the one where you need a fancy AGP graphics card? Only I fucked mine on Sunday.

sw galaxies fuck. Wheree has the internet been all my life?

And I've got to got to work tomoroow. today.

Eve online is awesome
much better than al of these especialy Star Wars Galaxies IMHO

I'm surprised "World of Warcraft" hasnt been mentioned as it should be a better game than Guild Wars (well 800,000 gamers cannot be wrong), i used to play Star Wars Galaxies and this is a very good MMORPG and a tokers game as well

Those WOW gamers will all be playing GW soon.


No Fees to play !!! unlike WoW

No robbing/stealing/megalevel maniacs either

Check it out try it I promise you you will like it.

Especially when you dance naked by the camp fire . . . . still can't get my underpants Daz white . . . .

Correct

You play UO too Bom ? What shards / characters ?

- Kafka

Drachenfells and Siege...........


Siege mainly Mate....

Edit to say im a nasty red PK heh heh

If you want a upgrade code for SE pm me ill send ya one

Kicking arse with..........
110 magery
110 eval
110 wrestling
110 medi
100 poison
120 resist *grins*
60 focus

Bom!

*Grins* nah was just wondering what shards and characters you played ! Been playing for nearly 7 years myself, Europa, Drach, Chesapeake, Catskills and Siege. Mainly Europa though since i gave up and returned 16 months ago.

Should try dropping wrestling in favour of a weapon skill and a spell channel weapon. More kill potential !

- Kafka

do you think thats better?
no tact or anat just a weapon skill?

My account is a Beta account mate, 89 months old

I was In BiH on Siege before the guild quit the game

Definetly better. Pre cast explosion, hit em with a special move like infectious strike and follow up with a explosion / flamestrike ... toast ... beats only being able to disarm with wrestling.

Bring back old skool tank mages i say !

Tactics and anatomy leave for the pure dexer; you're not looking to kill them with the weapon; just poison them. Might want to think about Chivalry for some extra damage instead of the 60 focus, or perhaps tracking and detect hidden.

Both accounts of mine are only 62 months; should be 78 though !

- Kafka

Ive got GW pre ordered, cant wait.
It looks really awesome and I cant believe its fee free!
been checking out the different classes and skills on gamespy, cant decide between a ranger/fighter or a necromancer/mesmer.
what are you thinking of Angel?

For anyone whos interested, from my experience of the game, guild wars is different to most other MMORPGs in that a low lvl character could quite easily beat a higher lvl character in Player vs Player combat as long as they have the right skills selected.

Apparently, its similar to Magic: The Gathering, in that you have hundreds of skills but can only take eight onto the battlefield with you.
Combat is very team based and almost like a first person shooter (if you set the camera up right), but with strategy.

Im not a very sociable person in online gaming and dont really chat, but the game will set you up with random allies if you wish, and I never have much problem finding a party to go out travelling, even if you prefer going solo, henchmen are available at every outpost and dont require paying, all they take is their share of loot, which is assigned to players as it is dropped, so your stuff cant be stolen.

This is my first foray into online adventuring, apart from messing about with MUD's a few years ago, all in all I would say it is a very good game, graphics are brilliant, the control system is nearly perfect and the possibilities are nearly endless.

by the way, the map is absolutely MASSIVE! the biggest Ive ever seen, all completely explorable and ranging from vast deserts to lush jungles to frosty mountain peaks.

sorry for going on, ive been playing it quite a bit recently....

Wishing I could have a go on these. However, from past experience I spend every spare moment on them! Until a drip is fitted to my computer to feed me with essential nutrients, I shan't risk it again.
