Arent u guys bored yet??

[old.Bloodaxe]

I cant believe that u guys still think the game give anything but
agony... lol sounds hard when i put it like that...hehe

I'll just start with the beginning i think...
1.
We all started out making a character we thought would be funt to play with... and lvl him so he could kick ass (xping and RvR)

2.
When u get a group about your lvl and kill some mobs and make xp with no (hopefully) deaths. After a while someone types in the message "this xp sucks"

3.
Then some agrees and the group goes for harder mobs...
someone (or more, perhaps whole group) dies, and then hell is about to raise, everyone gets pissed and group disbands yada yada yada... u all know how it is....lol

4.
WHY are we allways doing the same mistake going for harder mobs at sloooow rate (usually)

5.
The game is excactly the same if u are lvl10 or 50 xcept at lvl10 u wanna be lvl50 and at lvl50 u can rub your lvl in everyones face...

and a little difference in RvR ofcourse (and RvR aint a blast afterall)

What I think is that the game needs more to it than just pulling and killing when xping and a little more than mezzing and nuking in RvR....

thanks for reading =)

regards the happy but Retired

Clearly the EU game is failing, level50s leave on a daily basis. RvR is quite frankly a joke (20min to get there, 20secs to die). No sense of community (mostly flaming). Slow, slow, slow updates by GOA (this is a fundamental and ongoing problem).

The EU game is unfortunately a totally different beast to US. US get regular patching to keep people interested and their minds away from the shortcomings of the game in general. Most peoples attention span on games like these is about 2 weeks (Mythic understand this).

is all I can say.

read a US board lately Chesnox? They make us look happy and contented....
And rightly so, all these constantly changes to one's class have got to get slightly fecking annoying. Even more so for the tanks (who still get rooted/mezzed to hell) and the gimped specline-users (celtic dual, dual wield, any cabalist line , wizard earth...)

I dunno, i don't find it THAT bad on albion. I refuse to believe US RvR is for some reason difference.

 

[old.chesnor]

LandShark, all the time people whinge it means they still play and still care. When they stop playing and post 'im leaving' thats when you got problems. People are leaving this game in numbers. Look at the falling number of people playing on Excalibur and try to tell me different.....

hm...

well Bloodaxe, I can only speak for myself but what makes the game enjoyable are those little moments, which mostly happen in small-scale RvR...
Like those 3vs3 or 5vs5 you randomly experience in Gorge, Mt Collory or Odin's Gate for example (I never go to emain anymore. its just not worth it)...I have to say, those get my adrenaline pumping =)

And XP? I hardly ever do that anymore. Maybe a few hours a week at my little private bone-eater oracle spot in uppland, earning like 0.2 bubs / week...its not very enjoyable in solo (Im not even gonna start ranting about groups at lvl 40+), so I just don't do it...sure, it's a bitch to be considered "low lvl" (currently "only" at 41), but there's not much I can do about it =)

2.
When u get a group about your lvl and kill some mobs and make xp with no (hopefully) deaths. After a while someone types in the message "this xp sucks"

this is the point where Estat klicks on the player who just did that evil comment and types: /disband

problem solved

 

[old.mcmilliam]

my main problem with this game is how shallow and laughable the pve is.i mean i found EQ annoying but this game has a real poor pve compared to EQ by a mile.if not for the rvr i would not bother.
rvr is actually good when it works well.pve is a joke mobs look the same most dungeons look the same.little need for any tactics whatsoever.just a matter of hit and hit and hit.
EQ pve is a different matter.granted the fact that life without a cleric there or a enchanter is hard.but you still can't do much without a cleric or a form of healer here too.in EQ same you can get a shaman or druid to fill in the role even if poorly.you have classes such as the shadowknights with cool spells to hold the aggro.here its a matter of who does the most dmg.
but all in all the good news is you can go to emain and have some fun later if no one using a wall bug that is.

If you just hit hit hit, hell yea you need a healer.


Try using your styles and develop some tactics. You'll see that live without a healer/shaman can be very enjoyable in Midgard.

And no it won't put a big dent in your xp/hour
