pudim Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Wow nice logic lol. This is a forum, you are quoting me and I am responding. It takes me little effort and time to answer you. (sips coffee) You should be our master, Would you teach me how to use the forum if I am willing to pay you a fee? Ok... I'll stop now... =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarmlessMass Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I *ADORE* the phasing. The worst thing in a game as cool as this is breaking immersion by being surrounded by 1000 other people all trying to do the same quest and kill the same guy. It was one of the things I hated most about WoW when questing. The less interaction with others when questing, particularly while leveling up, the better. Playing a game like WoW is like having Spongebob Squarepants at full volume when you're trying to relax. Good for the ADD kids, not so good for adults. The things youy mentioned are good points and can be annoying but when does the game go from an MMO to a CORPG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obsidian_star Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 In other games you would be complaining that you have to wait 4 hours before you can kill a boss other 999 players also have to kill this x 10000000000 cry babies cry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapono Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The things youy mentioned are good points and can be annoying but when does the game go from an MMO to a CORPG? Depends on your definitions. When I'm at the Imperial Fleet, surrounded by hundreds of people chilling, talking, using the auction, training, questing, whatever- it's an MMO. When I'm out in the world, doing some questing, I know I'm not completely alone, and there are people relatively nearby, possibly in need of aid or can provide it - it's still an MMO. If I'm in a phase that is built for my storyline and I'm having a personalized experience without distraction - it's still an MMO, but the rest of the world is on mute for 5 minutes. When the world is a distraction, it's not a game, it's an irritation. Phasing minimizes the irritation, while enhancing the experience of the play. Everyone's definition of "enhancing" will of course be different - but pardon me if I don't want to see 20 other people competing for kills right next to me.

I guess I just wish I would actually see a few other players when in the city hubs on the planets. It would just add to the virtual world feeling.

Valkyriane Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Yep, this game is missing it's soul. I can handle little competition for quest mobs no problem there. But I cannot handle MMO without other people. SWTOR doesnt have living and breathing world. It is static and empty. Kills the whole game atmosphere.

It would just add to the virtual world feeling. Well - we're still at the point where the majority of people are still leveling up. Once people aren't bound by a linear set of questlines and are able to move about at will, the relative populations will increase at hubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
