You talking about Age of Reckoning? If so, that game looks like it'll be worthwhile. It was supposed to support PhysX. I wounder what will happen now nVidia snapped them up?
Quote from Mordin;343723: Have the beta, not a bad game and its rather similar to WoW (not that thats a bad thing), although that being said i think WoW is still better atm.
Most of the quests are the same (kill X of Y), abilities are very similar (some are even identical including name), lots of things in the general world used from wow like elite monsters, hearthstones etc. Just about anyone who's seen me play it has commented on how it looks and plays like wow.
Trying to play the new T3 content but downloading the 1.5gb patch is not going well.
so really its like the first early mmo's, and not wow :P
it doesnt play like wow at all imo, the pvp system is way better, the public questing system is way better, the skills systems are complicated, but still better, the moral system is so different to wow, i admit they copied talents pretty badly.
I just dont like it because no one i know plays it. and playing by myself got boring. that and the deletion of my character from the first beta. that annoyed me.

Yes cause WoW has a collisions system, PQ quests, keeps that you can capture and siege and a RvR battle system... I can see from these major points how this is so much like WoW.....

You sound like someone who's read PR and hasn't actually played the game lol. Im sorry i've seeming bruised your ego pointing out the similarities (not differences mind you as you have) between war and wow and by not posting how the game is better then the second coming of jebus and shall now go back to playing the beta giving the makers unbias feedback in an effort to improve the final release, as thats why im playing it in the first place. ;P

the similarities you pointed out are in every mmorpg ever created. ever. even just about all of wow's ideas are copied. the storyline is the only thing thats unique.
Im not saying that WoW isn't original or that its the best game ever, just that as someone who's played both wow and war for quite a while that war is a lesser game to me. It still is beta so hopefully this will improve.
if it turns out to be better than wow, i can already see a quarter of the worlds population stop drinking, socalising and going into hiding... not to mention the extra amount of korean babies dying because there olds arnt looking after them.
i don't we'll see a game "Better than wow" for quite a long time, it will be like CS, even if a game comes out that is better, people will not stop playing wow, untill blizzard **** the game up. which they already have if you've played from the start.
it's a different game, and it's not as good because playing a beta by yourself is pretty boring, especially when i was playing it, so many bugs, so much frustration, so little conversation, does not make for a good game thats ment to be designed around interaction with mates. once more of my friends or you fellow GUer's can play, it will be a much better experience.
What i look at is the aspects of the game. rather than the experience i had.
PVP/RVR War is better Classes/Skills War is better Lore/Story War is better Artwork/design War is better Combat system War is better Items Wow is better
I would love to play, but getting beta access seems pretty hard. I played it a bit on Heretics account and it was quite good, but yeah, got pretty boring playing by oneself.
The Zone quests alone were an excellent feature. 50 people all helping to complete each others quests is a pretty neat way to do things, while still giving people the opportunity to go it alone.
Will give it a whack when it goes retail. I'm one of the buckets & Friends who will be giving it a shot.
I'm looking to give this a good kick around when it hits retail as well. Probably be hanging with the buckets, if they think I'm cool enough to hang with them :P
