lineschmidt Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) I thought it would at least tide me over to GW2... I couldn't play this steaming pile for more than two and half weeks. And yet here you are QQing about it on the forums. Logic much? It seems to me that a person with common sense would spend their time on something they enjoy but maybe you really like to QQ?

Thalcarion Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) So you think GW2's big accomplishment is adding jumping? As far as your point about SWTOR... nothing you do within your story matters in TOR. You'll get to 50 and your story ends. That's it, game over. Every choice you make, makes no difference. Every choice you make leads to the same outcome. No, I also said that there will be the living world which will be new that future MMO's will learn from. To answer your SWTOR decision comment, that may be true but as I move forward in the game it makes me feel like my decisions do matter which is something I have never played with before. I may not make a difference when I get to 50, but decision making is always a good thing. Instead of doing a quest and getting a reward, you can decide how your story continues.

LordEris Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I'm 32 and have been gaming for over 20 years. Although I this is my first online game I know a good game when I play one. Great games make you skip meals. Great games make you feel bad when you send twenty settlers to their doom. All great games have a storyline that makes you come back for more even if you already know whats coming next. I started with the NES, and played all the other systems that came after. Star Wars aside, the beauty of this game is that is grows into you as you play. Its not just about clicking buttons, its about being apart of a world that is bigger then you and a part of you.

Azzras Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Why would I get upset? Even if it had pink butterfly animations, at least they won't be at 2 FPS You obviously didn't play the Beta, nor have you researched your oh so hyped game. Here, I'll help you with the pink butterflies: http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/professions/mesmer/ Enjoy. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentWolf Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Just because you don't wish to acknowledge GW2's presence, doesn't mean it isn't there. After GW2 releases, TOR may as well just be 1 or 2 servers, because anyone who continues to play this game and pay a subscription, is just wasting money on an inferior product. I said it's nowhere to be seen, as we don't have any release date still, but I did say that it will probably be the end of swtor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alric_Annondu Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Will swtor lose alot of player base to mmo's that are coming out soon, TERA may 1st, and GW2 around dec? After playing TERA over beta weekend it seems like a very developed and quality MMO that has all the things an MMO'ers heart can desire. These mmo's didn't give the excuses that they are a new MMO and need to develop after launch.. they are delivering everything we expect in a modern day MMO on release.. How will swtor hold up to the competition is the question? Established Customer Base and Subscriptions > Upcoming MMO with a hope and a dream of having an established customer base also Huge Conglomerate, part of EA(Still I regard this as the worst decision ever made by BW) > Startup company, and smaller company.

Quenthe Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) No it won't, first of all TOR is not MMO game. Second GW2 will show Bio/EA how to make MMO games. Edited March 27, 2012 by Quenthe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewser Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I lot of players looking forward to GW2, won't like the pay to win aspect. Also since it is a one time buy, it will not take many players from SWTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amantheil Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) What's funny is that i'd guess that most of the people saying "can't wait for GW2. It will revolutionize MMOs!" were probably the same people trolling Blizzard's forum saying that Rift and SWTOR would kill WoW and how SWTOR would re-shape MMOs. I Wonder what unreleased game they'll gush about when GW2 doean't meet their unrealistic expectations. Edited March 27, 2012 by amantheil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icysunx Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Except with Blizzard you do not have to worry about not having any one to play with because you rolled on a dead server and theres no possible way to transfer off other than to reroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offended Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I feel that the things in GW2 will be seen from other games, and honestly is nothing new it's just new to the GW franchise, like jumping for instance. GW doesn't have that and GW2 will, hmmm? ok. lol. Living world and decisions determining your game play and outcome? SWTOR is doing that too yes? Events happening as your going through your world, that may be a new thing, and an interesting move. I don't think you've actually played star wars, that maybe you just have a subscription to say things like this on the forums. In guild wars 2, if you go and say, destroy a bridge. the bridge is gone. It doesn't re-appear after 5 minutes. NPC's that used to use the bridge now have to find a new way around. If you see a farm being attacked by a bunch of evil horse riders and you save the farm. It stays saved. THAT is making a difference in the world. Warcraft is doing similar things with their phasing concepts. as you complete quests and take over new parts of the map (think Icecrown in WotLK, but they admitted this was an extreme example), you change the world. With Mists they're making phasing way less obtrusive and using it in such a way that it will be like guildwars, where if you save a burning farm, it's saved. In star wars, the world is as static as the desktop wallpaper on my windows 7 box. Well no, I take that back. I have Windows 7 set to rotate through several hundred wallpapers every 30 minutes. Bioware has to instance story elements so to move the "world" forward and then after you complete it, they lock you out of that part of the world.
