I just wanted to say hello to Vengeance and wish you all the best in whatever adventures you are finding right now. Our guild, Consilio et Armis, has been moving around every so often checking various games. Been a long and interesting road. EQ to DAOC to Shadowbane to Star Wars back to EQ1 to EQ2 and now back to DAOC on Midgard Merlin. We are eagerly awaiting the release of Vanguard and beta testing a few games as well. An interesting time in the development of MMO's.
Stay safe and take care all of you. Happy Birthday Axe. I enjoy reading the occasional Axelet stories, very funny!
Axe is 35! Wow, that's getting up there.
speaking of, I gotta find a guild with less old geizers. I wonder what VU is up to... Happy birthday axe. Aquarius represent, homie-G!
why don't you go start a spam thread?
Then he said, 'omg wtf lol!!1.'
Granted, no PVP, but not many other options out there for quality gaming atm. All I see coming out is cheap MMOs' geared to gain the quick buck. Too much instancing, too much instant gratification, too many damn bugs, not much world building anymore in these games.
We are currently playing DAOC, but DAOC has seen it's sunset. I think Warhammer Online will be the next quality PVP game, but that won't be until probably 2007 or 2008. That is a long time away.
So our talk right now is to try out Vanguard and patiently await the release of Warhammer Online, which Mythic has the contract for. My gut feeling is that DAOC will lose at least 50% subscriptions if not more with the release of Warhammer Online. I think a lot of folks see that more as a DAOC 2 version. I haven't seen any design documents or data posted yet from Mythic suggesting they have anything down, just a generic FAQ page with little to no info. I hope to find out more.
I used to play Warhammer when I was a kid. We should be Wood Elves, Lizardmen, or Dwarfs
