anyways this discussion is childish and useless

i never said you have to share my opinion about what is a good MMORPG

the way where daoc goes shows well enuff what an average MMORPG-player in the year 2004 thinks is a good MMORPG
in good old 90´s we had a slightly different opinion but guess most of you didnt even have a PC back then xD

i´m out of this now thx for an amusing morning but i got more important things to do now

Hehe good call :)

I think i have my pc from the 80's actually. PVP is very much a year 2000+ thing. UO was very much an exception and It did come out late in the 90's.

YOu must ahve spent some time getting these characters;

Seltir lvl 50 Healer r7lx <Jack Herer>
Hatchetdwarf lvl 50 Skald r6lx <inactive>

~~Prydwen~~
Xianghua lvl 50 Heroine r8lx <Jack Herer>

and you dont htink DAOC is a good mmorpg?? :O

LOL mate what planet were you born on ultima 8 was released June 1, 1994

Erm the 7th annivery edition was released this year... But I could be wrong that is where i got the date from please correct me if that was wrong? what is it the anniversary of then?

UO was released on September 30, 1997 according to the web..


Ultima 7 was released in 93 so i dont think UO was released that early ;)

it makes sense to a roleplayer yes ofc
for a PvP orientated player its a joke

DAOC never has been or ever will be for pvp. DAOC rvr is not pvp - you only have to compare it to old UO pvp to see this.

no in 6-12 months the game will be dead
only some casual noobs will be left but those dont count

Because as we all know daoc_xianghua is every single daoc player and if he quits mythic and GOA will shut down the servers...

Totally agree - just pointing out that RvR isn't PvP in the true sense of the word. That's why camlann didn't really work - the game wasn't designed as pvp from the bottom up as UO was :)

I did actually play UO for a while. Just i was living in New Zealand and on a 34K dial up so the lag was a little bad to the US west coast ;) DAOC players these days dont know what lag is!!!

It probably better now, when i was playing there was so many macros etc.. everyone was overnight mining.

Look at what happens when you quote someone on the boards. See all those jumbled up letters that aren't part of what they wrote? That means there's a little something on your pc that you might want to take a look at. Got it? Good. Now that we've explained some basic home computing, let's look at the irony of you calling other people noobs shall we? ;)

The UO american shards were opened in sep 97, Ultima Accension was released around 2000/2001 iirc, it was very buggy and not related to the online game, but yeah Uo has celebrated its 7th anniversary. :)

but but 80vs80 lags and is shit boring beacuse noobs spam ae on mezzed ppl and do shitty things and arn't funny to play like that.. and some realms cant get 80 or is it 140 enemy got or 250 attackers to the rvr zone...

Daoc isnt designed for 8v8 hence the realm vs realm description :)

God help us if each realm has 8 people, maybe time to close them if that was the case :)

My point was: just because you don't like the game doesn't mean it's dead. It's incredibly arrogant and presumptious to think so.

Didn't think it was that unobvious really, but perhaps I should have written it in smaller words for you.


Are you quite finished trolling here btw? If you've quit feel free to sod off - this is RvR discussions not "look at me I quit! I did! I've quit! and I'm going to tell you again and again and again how much everything sucks becuase I've quit! Look! I've quit!" discussions.

Oh and FFS run some anti-spyware software before I have to ban your account for the ten billion adverts you spawn all over the place every time you quote someone.

erm I think you are about to get banned, unless he finds your posts amusing like a lot of us do.

You really should run some spware searchs tho it will slow down your thid experience especially on your stoneage PC ;)

ok i´ll explain it to you (dunno why i even bother tbh)
i hardly playing RvR atm due to NF beeing total bullshit (cba with all the keep/tower/zerg shit) and due to my comp can hardly take it anyways (playing on 600Mhz cpu 256mb ram atm)
made about 2 runs to emain since NF release
on the retard home server (a.k.a excalibur) i dont bother playing at all
np if you zerglings like it but do your roleplay without me

anyways point is you insulting me is like totally pointless cuz i quitted excal already ,when was NF release? 3 weeks ago? whatever if ppl dont come to their senses i´ll prolly quit prydwen sooner or later too (wont take me 6-12 months)

to avoid inc flames by 12 year old retards
NO you dont have to care

Buy a better pc mabye?

Well it makes perfect sense what marc jacobs says but I always had the impression that RvR was the most successful feature of DAoC and the one thing that really put it ahead of other mmorpgs.

Mythic now has a brand name it didnt have when it launched daoc 3 years ago and no doubt the new game will have many subscribers. Personally I would prefer another DAoC style game with sophisticated PvP/RvR rather than a pure PvE game. The market is already saturated with PvE-only and traditional "hardcore" roleplaying games.

Yeah, give a DAoC 2 with balanced classes, realms and numbers! Oh wait, that's totally utopian! :D

News flash m8, bad idea to call one of the forum mods "fucktard". Just a hint for you. ;)

I'm a nice mod I think I might let you live through this one since banning you would feel too much like resorting to calling people "clueless idiots" and "fucktards" for disagreeing/debating. Consider yourself lucky that it's A: christmasish and B: afternoon so I've had coffee. That said Tilda seems to like banning more than I do ;) so you may well get one anyway.

That spyware link crap is really getting on my tits btw.
