So I got roped into WoW by a friend, as it seemed like the only way I was going to get to play games with my friends this summer. We got a recruitment thing going, so we got triple xp up to level 60, and I was always playing with friends.

Holy balls the game was bad. Leveling is boring, takes absolutely forever, and the only remotely redeeming aspect is ganking people (which happens less than you get fucked over).

So, at level 67, from my experience Uzique is full of shit <3.

... Or you're just not a fan of the MMO genre, as opposed to me proliferating shit.

Stop being such a cunt all your life.

Also lol @ the QQ whine: "which happens less than you get fucked over". Sounds like a serious 'L2P' issue to me.

And how can you make a definitive judgement on the game when you didn't even experience the endgame? That's like playing an FPS game and dismissing it as shit before you even shoot anybody, based merely on walking around the levels and seeing the weapons.

No, I don't, and I bet ghetto doesn't like mmo's either. My point is you are saying give it time and it will be fun, I am saying that is probably not the case. Seeing as we are on a BF2 forum and all.

Simple level distribution...there are a lot more people above your level than below it until you hit 80, and even there are a lot of 80s that are better than you until you get your gear going too.

Ganking was the only thing I really enjoyed, and I played a rogue so that made things a lot easier...I could even get out when my friends were getting fucked by people ~5 levels above us. The fact is if you win 50% (more realistically 60-70% because a lot of people are retards, but still) of the PvP encounters on your approximate level, you are going to get fucked over by 80s raiding your leveling towns for shits and giggles.

This is exactly the problem...I played like 50 hours doing nothing but walking around and seeing the weapons, and I still have hours upon hours to go until I actually play that game. The monetary + time investment to "experience the endgame to make a definitive judgement" is absurd.

... Yeah, 'cause everyone here only plays BF2, and their tastes never dare to stray far away from military modern-combat FPS shooters, right?

If people here can be excited about Starcraft 2, Diablo, Command & Conquer and fucking Spider Solitaire, then they're just as likely to endorse and enjoy WoW. I get tired of speaking up for a game I don't even play against morons with arguments that make zero sense. WoW and MMO's are not gaming anathema to FPS players; most of my old professional CoD1/CoD2 team-mates and friends ended up spending the majority of the last 3 years on WoW, playing competitively at endgame. You know, the part where the actual content comes, as opposed to the relatively quick and easy leveling treadmill that is designed to merely familiarize you with the game and your character/class abilities.

I dont like WOW, have never played it but the stereotype that comes with it puts me off.  Im not stupid enough to say its shit because millions cant be wrong (w/e the number is)

I love cricket and dont care what I get stereotyped as.  Stupid people say its shit even though millions of people play it, they just dont like it.

Fair enough.

Dude, ghetto can play whatever he wants. The point is I was severely misled by yourself, others on this forum, but primarily my friend in just how "treadmill-like" the grind is. It is a slow and painful process.

... It really doesn't take long to get to level 80. At all.

It's the fastest leveling MMO out there - Blizzard basically throw levels at you to get to the end an experience the full-game. I find it laughable that you complain when you were under the Recruit-a-Friend scheme as well, which basically triples your speed .

This is my point. You say it doesn't take very long to get to 80, I say it does. Obviously the amount of time we're talking about is pretty damn similar, but very different opinions. If ghetto is bored out of his skull now, I think his opinion will be closer to mine than yours.

He's bored now because it's the introductory tutorial phase, where the game hasn't even kicked in proper yet-- not even the leveling journey that you complain about.

Actually skinning was the shit. Extremely enjoyable. Particularly in this ~50 level instance my friend ran me through like 4 times, sunken temple I think.

I. Skinned. Dragons. fuck yeah

Pug 206 HD (got a turbon or something).  It has a grill in the boot to stop things whacking me in the head if I crash.  I suppose if you get a woman to grab the grill it looks like she wants to be let out of the cage.  I have a CCFC crest on the boot and last years CCFC car park pass on the windscreen.  All panels are dented and one mirror is hanging off, all vandals, except Mollie who has slipped opening the door and they have broken off the strap things, piece of junk, not buying one again.  Sorry, I mean I aint getting the company to buy me one again.
