So it's been like a year and a half since I asked in the beta "why does this game run like absolute horseshit on a high end PC when it looks worse than WoW?" Did they ever actually optimise the game like their kept claiming they would?

The problem with GW2 is they made an MMO and not a cool skill based multiplayer thing like GW1 was.

TB made a 30 minute video decrying the casualization of WoW and quitting forever. Then it turned out he'd literally done zero of the raids and only two of the hard mode dungeons. You'd think a 23 year old law graduate with an IQ of 155 would be less of a baby.

Bacontotem posted:CoH had one mechanic I wish other MMOs would steal in pvp. Tank taunts actually worked against players. WAR had this but the effect was different per tank class. The dwarven one would cast the taunt, and would gain a stacking damage buff as long as there were enemy units near him that weren't attacking him.

Chomp8645 posted:If anybody misses Warhammer: Online I suggest you look into Elder Scrolls Online. Cyrodiil is basically WAR reborn with one enormous lake instead of many smaller ones and minus the horrendous mismanagement. If it doesn't have collision between players and bright wizards/chosen then no deal.

RottenK posted:people always talk about WoW subscriber numbers dropping but i think that having several millions of paying customers is pretty good for a game that's so old, especially since it's no longer the only edible fish in the pond A publicly traded company feels the same way about losing 6 people out of 10 people playing their game (wildstar/Nexon) as losing 7 million of their 12 million (WoW/Activison)

Yeah, WoW's never gonna Die, but it'll sure as poo poo be "dead" in terms of players at some point soon unless they really buck their ideas up. FFXIV's 3 month patch cycle has really dropped a huge load on Blizzard's work pipeline for being, still, 5~ times bigger subscriber wise. WoD was really, really good until you got to the end game which consisted of absolutely loving nothing, and had one of it's two patches be content cut from the original release of the expansion.

Kelp Plankton posted:when WoW does it, it'll kill like two or three other MMOs instantly because people will just go to Free WoW What other MMOs will it kill? No one's making them anymore because it's a dead genre. They're all making MOBAs (and even that trend is dying out)

Tenzarin posted:In WoW, they have main characters killing big bads because you are not super lore character. They don't make the player character out to be some kind of god, and they address all the players in the group. They did in WoD, though. You're literally the commander of the army taking the fight directly to the big bads since you're so awesome you ended numerous other campaigns.

Flesh Forge posted:How the gently caress has Blizzard never gotten around to doing this? That's kind of astonishing. The first bag slot is hard coded at 16 slots and would break the entire game if changed. I'm not kidding. Ten years of shithouse spaghetti code is a wonderful thing.

Mizuti posted:What I meant is that the game's developers think that EQ1 logistics and TBC attunements are good and valid game design in 2014-15. They don't seem to distinguish the value between a tough but doable fight and one that is deliberately skewed to make the players suffer. Then when they beat them, the Devs re-tuned the fights to be harder.

Did they ever fix the performance issues in this game that looks like a truck stop toilet? I was told by a developer on this very forum those issues were just because it was in beta and not because the game was poorly made trash by a bunch of mewling idiots.

60fps is too modern they just wanted the game to feel like 2004 WoW

I had a 770 and it couldn't keep a constant framerate over 45 in 90% of the areas I played in in the beta, which was two areas because the game was bad.

There's reports that the launcher for the game has constant crashes and also uses 20-30% cpu time.
