Allegiance? Wasn't an MMO, but definitely was a cool game.

Allegiance was cool because at the time it was 128 players or so fighting. It never took off though because it required a monthly fee. Its actually available to still play, its on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/700480/Microsoft_Allegiance/

queeb posted:wasnt there another online game where you could like pilot a few different ships and you had to protect your mothership or some poo poo, called alliance or something like that Yup it was a Microsoft game in space and you could fly a fighter, bomber, or interceptor. It was called Allegience and was a ton of fun.

There was an MMOG way back where you piloted a fighter in factional pvp and there were giant carriers and stuff to take down and I cannot for the life of me remember what it was called. Reminds me of Battlestar Galactica Online, both an MMO and browser based. Played it on Kongregate. The monetization model sucked rear end but you could play as Human or Cylon which was pretty awesome.

Isn't it still online? I only had glancing interactions with it, so I'm not up to date with its current status.

I don't think anyone publishes RO in the EU anymore, iRO blocks European IPs altogether. I found a decently populated EU-based private server that's pretty vanilla with just slightly increased rates, and I'm having a blast healing zombies and skeletons to death in payon cave.

Truga posted:isn't lost ark the good, polished RO successor? i can't play it so idk while on the surface they both are isometric korean grindfest mmos where you shed tears as you fail to get +s on your gear, lost ark has none of the charm of RO. the sandboxy nature of RO with freeform character builds and set-your-own-objective overworld grindathons where you party up with the random people you meet is so much more appealing than lost ark's "follow the quest marker" main quest slog, item level grind and daily/weekly instance checklists.

ToS is what happens when someone designs cool pieces to a game and then decides gently caress it, I don't want to make a coherent or good game and I know for a fact this will never be that popular, and then proceeds to get an MBA to paste it together into an on-rails dollar extraction machine with no regard for player experience. Truga posted:isn't lost ark the good, polished RO successor? i can't play it so idk Lost Ark's loop is do 90 seconds of check in + daily quest everyday, do 6 minutes of chaos every day, and then do some weekly lockouts. You also scale most of this to up to 6 characters (or more kinda, but after 6 you don't get gold from weekly raids). It's heavily time gated and infinitely vertical. There's almost no catchup if you are anywhere near current content either. Unless you swipe or generate gold through alts or generate gold through playing AH baron. It's very on rails, very themepark. It only gets off rails in how you manage your progression & your roster's progression, and admittedly that part of the game is fairly satisfying if you choose to treat it as a game you play instead of a game you pay.

u can have a pale immitation of that by autoattacking on a scholar while broil spamming in ffxiv its a very slight dps increase

autoattacking on a SMN is a pretty significant gain though because of their lack of cast times. my buddy figured it out to be about a 4% DPS increase, which is huge in terms of parsing

You don't autoattack while casting or while your GCD is rolling off of an instant cast, so not really.

Are there any classes in a “modern” MMO that is a healer which heals the group by doing damage to the mobs? Closest I’ve ever come in a game was Chloromancer in Rift. I’ve always loved that clerics traditionally have a mace, shield, and heavy armor so wouldn’t it be bad rear end and fitting that slamming their mace over a mobs head would lead to healing/inspiring the group?

WoW's Disc Priest FFXIV's edit: I'm pretty sure they have some group healing but maybe a lot of it is targeted based on putting a buff on a specific party member. There was some other game that also did this but I might be thinking of D&D 4th edition clerics Cutedge fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Apr 10, 2023 |

The Warrior Priest in RoR is about smacking things with a two-handed maul to heal your friends. I don't think they could use shields, though.

Frida Call Me posted:i think you mean XIV's sage, scholar doesn't have any of that yeah sage has 1 buff that heals the recipient every time you use a DPS global cooldown. in practice it's mostly just a check that lets players who don't panic cast unnecessary GCD heals squeeze out more DPS

XI's Dancer was supposed to be this, gaining TP with attacks and being able to heal with it, but like every job in XI it got mutated into something else because that game was always fantastic about letting stuff flex into roles they didn't think of. Turns out giving something massive resource gain to have it available for healing or buffing or whatever just turns it into a total burst machine by using that resource in the conventional way, because who needs healing when the mob dies in one combo.

Disc Priest kicks rear end, and they basically made Fistweaving the default monk healer build and it also kicks rear end

Autisanal Cheese posted:has anyone found the catch to Blue Protocol yet Not really no. Some big MMORPG specific content creators have said the game is really fun though when playing the closed beta test. But it still doesn't have a solid release date yet, just 2023, and there's been no marketing really. So I haven't been paying that much attention, its still a ways off.
