i want to play world of warcraft




Posted by Poco

Ok, so Cov/coh is getting kinda boring as it turns into a mega-grind around level 30 with no real rewards.


The only other mmos i've ever played are dark age of camelot, which was boring, and lord of the rings online which was v.boring, but v. pretty.

I'm thinking of picking up WoW today, and was wondering if it's a massive grind from 1-70, or if it's just boring like DAoC or LotR.

They've improved it greatly. There are some pretty grindy parts still, but it's much easier to get 1 - 70 now. It's easily possible to get there simply by doing quests (because you're going to have a hard time getting people to run with for the dungeons).

it sure as hell isn't a pretty game, but you can still manage to find it enjoyable.

GIVE IT A TRY LOLZ

Picked it up. I'll probably start tomorrow.

I dunno, I think the graphics have a certain charm...

Outlands is a completely different story, Blizzard did a great job designing that place graphically.

Yeah, I have a 70 warrior, 61 rogue, 16 hunter and 19 mage. I'd post em if the PC board was moved to a more visible position.

WHAT

hrm, i may have to make a character and visit you or something




Posted by Lord of Spam

Likewise.

70 resto druid on demon soul, 70 warlock on medivh. Really wishing that my lock wasnt on a pve server:(

Wow is pretty much a giant waste of time from like 1-58. Once you hit outlances, things start to get fun, but slogging through azeroth is a pain in the ***.




Posted by Speedfreak

Anyone wanna run to the store and buy me a game card? I just ran out of credit and Blizz won't accept payment as im not in the US. I'll paypal you the cash, of course :cool:

I don't care for WoW but I want to beat your face in for what you just did to the English language, and gaming, all in one foul swoop.

You may find that people are mean to you because you conduct yourself like a moron. For instance, here you make a post with atrocious spelling and gramar, and im telling you that you're retarded. And trust me, you are.

Second, leveling is VERY fast from levels 1-58, and only kinda fast from 58-70. You have obviously never played some of the real grindfests out there (cougheqcough) but that doesnt surprise me, as given the juvenile quality of your post, you probably werent alive when they were new.

And yes, I'll grant that you must level up to certain levels to wear upgraded armor, but think about it, are you really getting mad for being required to level up to get higher level abilities? Thats pretty much the foundation of every mmo ever.

As for too many players, thats an entirely realm dependant trait. If yours is overpopulated, chances are blizzard is allowing realm transfers to a more reasonable one.

Either figure out what youre talking about and try to make sense before posting, or keep your **** cockholster shut.

I'm a Guild Wars guy AKA cheap ***.




Posted by Speedfreak

I haven't played for weeks, right after buying a new 3 month sub too.

I simply cannot progress without raiding, which I don't have the time for with my job's constantly shifting timetable. If I were a tester for Blizzard I'd bug it: PLAYER CANNOT PROGRESS AFTER LEVEL 70 IF HE HAS A LIFE.

People suggest PVP, but I might aswell just play a REAL PVP game like Team Fortress 2 that doesn't require me to grind for gear.




Posted by snakester

WoW is fun. I don't pay because I have found a private server that has less lag than the regular blizz servers :O. Weird I know. I also play counter strike which is fun because I can go from Role-playing and questing to killing some terrorists in a matter of hours :]




Posted by Poco

After playing 3 months wow is pretty good. i have a level 30 warrior and level 21 mage. Mage is on a pvp server, while the warrior is on a pve server. Pretty good, **** shame that the low-level pvp is a gear based twinkfest, much unlike DAoC, for the worst. PvE def. isn't as grindy as CoH.

I'm probably quitting when WAR comes out.

yo, i don't play it obsessively, i just play it when i got time to kill.

Why would I play WoW, which is just an ok game when I have great stuff like TF2, Baldur's Gate 2, and Fallout 2?
