If you want to compare an mmo to something and haven't played wow, well then frankly your opinion is worth fuck all because you have no basis for comparison to 99% of the mmo playerbase.

I envy people who haven't played WoW personally. It is still a fantastic game, it's just I feel I've done everything it has to offer. If only I could forget I've played it, it would be very much worth playing it again!

Just my EQ fanboyism showing itself. I'll always love that game over everything as it was my first MMO.

I've logged 500ish hours of wow on xfire, on private servers though. I never played retail because I really didn't want to invest the time in it. Great game, great pve, amazing pvp, but the time it takes to get good gear and the amount I'd have to spend on expansions really turned me off from playing retail. I'd definitely play retail if I got a capped account with near full gear but otherwise I couldn't invest the time now as old as it is.

Offtopic;
Imagine a 12-14 year old trying to get his parents to buy every EQ expansion.... lol. Was quite a hassle.

You can order it from 10th April from official retailers, also there is one more beta weekend at the end of the month (exact date unknown)

is this going to be a sub based? Or just a one time fee for the box/game? I don't mind paying one time fees. But I'll be damned if I pay for the game + a subscription.

There are no monthly fees.. I put together most of the videos and info about the game here if anyone's interested..

In Australia;
$195 collectors edition
$89.95 box copy

Digital:
$59.95

duelux:
$79.95

I think the collector's edition will have great value in few years, I heard they are really limited :)

As for the graphics, have you actually played it? You can't comment on the graphics from videos because you have no idea what settings the player has on. Not to mention GW2 has a distinctive art style they wanted to create. Personally I think it looks fantastic, by far the best looking mmo to be released soon. No it's not skyrim, it needs to be able to be played on far more systems with thousands on players, and mmos take a lot longer to develop.

As for a WoW expansion, surely that is a compliment? Wow is the most successful mmo ever created. Being an updated version of the best mmo ever, that is why it will be a fantastic game. Tera? An expansion to L2, so billions of bots and gold sellers? awesome.

Was going to write alot, then cut it out cause there's not much point to discuss WoW with a long time player. To me WoW is the worst mmo ive ever played, only thing was the size of the world that interested me.

Tera is shit? well your opinion, only thing tera does wrong is the pvp balance untill end game, other then that it doesn't have anything bad :thumbdown: try to bot when you have to aim/dodge, or for that matter when it's open world pvp =P It's easy to bot when it comes down to / Selecting target / spam 1 2 3 4.

Ontopic: GW2 would be great for me since you can do only PvP to level and gearup, I shouldve looked more into it and I get more interested everytime I see more about the pvp =D And flame wall + arrows = awesome :lol:

This game looks very good! Think im going to buy the standard edition so I can play the beta this weekend.

Oh shit i late :S

i can't wait to release it

See you everyone tonight :)

Some server probs atm, hope they will fix it soon :)

My brother couldnt log in and when he did, his ass got booted within minutes ;p
