MMORPG's...

The content. WoW has a lot of content in it, and the sheer vastness of the world.

Also, how each class is fun to play and has their own unique method of getting by.

If you say lots of content, what exactly do you mean? Haven't you all been level 70 for what, like, 2 years now? Do they constantly introduce new endgame content? If so, like what?

Wow is always in on going developement. When BC came out it had 6 end game instance from the get go. Black temple was added with the 2.1 patch. Zul aman 10-man got added in 2.3 and Sunwell Platue is being added in 2.4.

The same reason you will keep on playing wow is the same reason you will drop it. Its too much content. Only a few ppl manage to actually make it to see end game content. And with every patch older end games get easier. But with that hte gap between the leaders and the new raiders just gets bigger and bigger.

The other major issue is telkoms consistant african standard service which means we will never be able to do anything with 200ms (our pure latency to europe).

Wow caters for everyone.

Thanks for that explanation.

Please note: This game and these downloads are provided for EUROPEAN players ONLY. The game will not work if you attempt to play outside of Europe.

Read that on CABAL's site. Have anyone tried it yet?

im sure you can use a proxy site to download the content ... connecting to the server will probably be a different story

Problem is not me, I can get myself VPN access on the works servers I guess, problem is no use playing if no one else from SA can join.

We won't know until we try

I found a nice MMORPG last night. I've had a craving for MMORPG's lately so I've downloaded about 8 different ones. All turned out rubbish except for these two

World Of Kung Fu
9Dragons

World Of Kung Fu is really awesome and I've enjoyed it thus far... Ok, granted I've only played it for about 30mins this morning but it has the ability to jump (which is lacking in most MMORPG's) and it has an awesome graphics engine plus its free to download and play.

I have both WoW and GW. I can't seem to get into GW, too boring for my liking plus the max level being 20 REALLY irritates me. WoW is good but I find the monthly fees too much for what you get in the game. I have a lvl 31 Priestess and a lvl 17 Druid. I've got bored of BOTH characters already.

Each to their own, I respect your opinion, please respect mine

Cabal seems out then. Guess I'll wait for Aion afterall.

Rayne · Post by **Rayne** » 09 Jan 2008, 13:37

Webzen's Soul Of The Ultimate Nation's English release has been put on ice.

Nuke · Post by **Nuke** » 09 Jan 2008, 13:43

Also read that. Also no new news on Rohan or Aion.

Rayne · Post by **Rayne** » 09 Jan 2008, 13:45

Yeah no idea what's happening with Rohan either.

Lol I need a new game soon.

Well to me, if you are going to play a MMO, play one which you have to pay for, others like Rappelz and Flyff are a grind fest, really.

Guild Wars to me is the best online RPG, just hours of fun

, also you only pay for it once

.

Vampyre_2099 · Post by **Vampyre_2099** » 10 Jan 2008, 06:39

Well I did pay for most of my MMORPG's, I had to pay for the cap that I used, so yes, I did pay for them

Doomextreme · Post by **Doomextreme** » 10 Jan 2008, 12:57

That doesnt at all relate to MMO... Paying for your cap is very different than paying FOR the game.

Vampyre_2099 · Post by **Vampyre_2099** » 10 Jan 2008, 13:07

no its not, I had to download the game, IE it used my cap, I have to pay for my cap therefore indirectly I paid for the game. BOOYAA!!!

DarkStar · Post by **DarkStar** » 10 Jan 2008, 16:22

Then, technically, you're paying for Windows every single time you download updates for it. In fact, you're paying to use Internet Explorer, (or Firefox, depending).

Whoa? I had no idea mmorpgs used so little bandwidth. I think i must just try a few.

True in a sense. I'm too tired to explain right now so I'll let you revel in your glory til the morning when I'm awake

Which is the best GW to get? I had a look the other day, and there were 4 or 5 different ones.....

No, you are not paying for the game. The game developers see no 1 c of what you pay for your cap. Also, there was no need for you to download the game, you could have installed it off of a disc...

Most people also get 'free 3 Gig Cap' per month. You pay your ISP for the service, thus you dont pay for downloading and using your cap. Wether you download the game or not, you pay your isp if you are on a fixed contract...

That is like saying you pay to go to the loo, because you pay the monthly water bill.

You are trying to be technical. Be realistic and get back On Topic...

VinceThePrince · Post by **VinceThePrince** » 17 Jan 2008, 13:06

I see... there are only 3... Guild Wars: Nightfall, Guild Wars: Prophecies and Factions, and Guild Wars: Eye Of The North Expansion Pack....

Which is the best? Or should I get all 3?? I can like to be for very confugulated...

Vampyre_2099 · Post by **Vampyre_2099** » 17 Jan 2008, 13:14

Aren't prophecies and factions seperate exp packs?

VinceThePrince · Post by **VinceThePrince** » 17 Jan 2008, 13:17

I think so, but they come together in box set....

Doomextreme · Post by **Doomextreme** » 17 Jan 2008, 18:19

No, they are completely seperate games. Same engine, same basic, other than that, it is completely different. Also you dont need Prophecies to run Factions for example.

There is only one expansion, that is Eye Of The North.
