I'm personally interested in it but is it one of the usual pay to play more rpgs?
Post 3
Got it, playing it every night, heaps of fun.
no its not pay to play, its a fully standalone game with multiplayer (up to 64 player) capabilities.
don't see how a clan would work, its not like the focus is on PvP.

All you need to do is work out how the clan wars are played for the other games like it, dont know any games of the top of my head, but there are a few RPG's with clans and wars from memory

well sure, diablo had clans, kinda. but the emphasis in nwn is on cooperative play, not adversarial. imo, a nwn clan is about the silliest concept i've heard of.

I've been in a diablo 2 clan and that was heaps of fun, you arranged pvp games with other clans and took all their stuff basically :P
:)
Post 7
Paladins right its more a coperative team game rather than a clan game.
I got it to and enjoy it heaps. This is comming from some one who hated diablo 2?.... is that the one when you start in a cage?
Graphics look pretty wicked if ya crank everything.
Its better to play single player rather than a co-op game so you get all the story line.
This game managed to waste a weeks worth of my time at a 3 player lan :P

It is not a Pay to play game.
Yes, the main aim of the game is to work together. im sure if you really really wantted to, you could form clans and shit and beat each other up. But thats not what the game is about. Play D2 or CS if you want that shit.

ala meeting new people and becoming friends with them on the net...the general purpose of a 'clan/team/group' in online gaming....
Post 14
'eh, the general purpose of a 'clan' always struck me as a) fight other clans, b) think you're superior to people who aren't in clans.
nb. point b) dates back to the days of quake 1 team fortress.
Post 15
in my opinion the underlying purpose in forming clans is to make friends, not to belittle others or to win all the time.
take a few clans that reside here for instance:
XiD: they, on the whole, do not belittle others that aren't in clans nor do the believe themselves superior. they do not appear to me to believe that winning is everything.
BM: well, lets just say winning is a bonus for us ;) i don't think we really expect to be better than all...
TOB: i seriously do not believe that TOB are 'in it to win it' rather to have fun with mates...and have a few 'drinks' on the side ;)
i spose i could go on but i am ranting.
i do understand that there are others that would think differently, it is my opinion. i also understand that there are clans in the world that just want to be the best...but in so doing aren't they just meeting new people, making friends and having fun....;) something to think about...

Kudos sequo, i couldnt agree more
Most rpg clans are for making friends, adventuring together, sharing equipment and xp and pretty much xping with friends, with wars on the side if you feel.
But clans are not just for winning, or feeling superiour to people without clans - infact many people without clans can beat the crap out of a -lot- that are in clans.
a clan is a group of people who enjoy playing together in the spirit of fun, if its not, then its not a real clan in my book
:D

even though you can make friends and do all that other f00bar, xping and stuff.
i have played with friends and i have play with ppl who i dunno, and aside from the excahnge of snide commnets, personal remarks and exchange of gear, there really isnt' that much difference when playing with a mate, or with someone who you just met, it isn't like you spend 99% of the time chatting.
versing other players within NWN woulnd't work out, because i had the game well, lets just say, pretty close to when it was released (for legal purposes) and i went online straight away, when i bought my copy of it and there were poeple already on level 20 with equiptment whcih would make killing a Red Dragon as easy as rollign the die
and currently now, a few weeks later, poeple just go into servers, with hacked characters and just muck around, killing other weaker players, chewing up their XP, there wouldn't really be any point in making clans, i mean ffs, in the main area (action) you can't see anyone's names let alone gather poeple for a clan, half of the time chatting would be spent on goin "is <insert clan name><insert name> here??... hello? you there? <insert name>??"
i mean, if everyone played correctly and didn't get a DM to give them 10000000 gold, or that extra 250000 xp to hit level 20 from level 1, then it might be conceivable. i mean i have been in a server where they automatically level you up to level 10 ffs. that was just stupid
but yeah, if you see a Draco ingame, give us a yell, currerntly i am a level 16 monk, and will be for a while (16000 xp till level 17 :S)

Yeah thats another point you need to consider when you play these types of games online where there is little or no control over the characters.
Some smeghead pimple popper will hack or cheat and have some mega uber character running around picken on newbies and cliaming to be a legend.

NWN is a roleplay game.
If you are familiar with D&D then you know all about NWN. Cause thats what it is. D&D 3rd edition rules on a computer.
However the catch about this game is that not only can you play versus the computer. You can play with your friends online or in a lan, in a game where the actual adventure has been created by another player. IE: a friend or such.
Thats wat is meant to make NWN the new best thing since sliced bread.
