Self made classes? Mythic knows how to make bad games, I wonder how this one will be.

How to play a Mythic MMO: 1. Play a stealther first. 2. After the 3 months and half of the games population is gone from bugs and other issues, reroll to the most op class. 3. Rule from your skull throne of skill for playing the best class. A PvP MMO let alone a skill based PvP MMO cannot exist in the ranks of MMOs anymore. DAOC worked because the choice was between Everquest(no pvp, old) and UO(no pvp, 2d, old). People don't like to lose a 60m DOTA game or even a 20m LOL game. Why would anyone play a game for 6 months with a chance that they lose. Tenzarin fucked around with this message at 18:12 on Aug 6, 2015 |

Kylra posted:You have to be online for the entirety of the 60m DOTA game so I don't think your comparison is very apt. Plus a lot of people play DOTA, so why DO so many hundreds of thousands to millions play a game for 60m that they might lose? http://steamcharts.com/app/570 It's probably because if you want to play a pvp game, you have to accept that you have a chance at losing or else your opponents are simply not going to play. They aren't AI driven demons like in Diablo. Dota games are only 20-60-90m long, and people arn't going to attack your ancients while you sleep. I believe Dota and Lol have worn away any basis of the pvp crowd. For one its faster, you arn't stuck as a class, and the games are short. I don't play GW2 or ESO at a high level and I bet they have an issue with the early morning flip when no one is online. Tenzarin fucked around with this message at 19:49 on Aug 6, 2015 |

goldjas posted:This looks and sounds pretty bad, but I did think that DAoC was the better of the 4 or so MMOs out at the time when the only real options were UO, DAoC, EQ, and AC, so maybe there is something here worth caring about? Probably not, honestly. AC 2 was released after DAOC, it bombed and died. DAOC just thrived because there was little choice and all the LotR movies started coming out. Mythic hardly balanced anything ever and when they did they balanced them into the ground.

Evernoob posted:I backed this for 110$ 3 years ago, and I don't care if it takes them 3 more years to deliver as long as they test everything well and deliver enough content to survive much longer than the 30-60 days modern MMO's usually survive without seeing a vast playerbase drop. ESO called and it wants to talk to you.

Kimsemus posted:Even though Chaos usually CRUSHED order, some classes were EXTREMELY good, such as Bright Wizard and Knights of the Blazing Sun, and some were TERRIBLE, such as Witch Hunter. I don't think you played WAR at any high level, witch hunters did crazy damage with %50 attack speed bonus.

ruffz posted:I never got into DAoC because I was playing RYL and WoW back in those days instead. I had heard lots of positive reviews for DAoC, and frankly that's probably the only reason I'm even a little bit interested in this game. I'm still extremely reluctant to buy into any "founder" poo poo after my ArcheAge experience throwing away $150. I'm also still bitter at how Mark Jacobs killed Warhammer Online, so I'm in agreement with the people that have said in this thread that the game feels like a trap. It's something I'll continue to monitor, but it'll have to show a lot of positive signs of being a really different MMO that could succeed before I spend any money whatsoever on it. Daoc was dead when wow came out. Mythic can't balance games, daoc only thrived because there was only daoc vs eq1. Your search for MMO Mecca does not exist.

Third World Reggin posted:WoW was such an improvement over EQ1 and DaoC it was amazing. Nice comparison some changes though Daoc Your life will suck rear end if you dont have access to a buff bot or own one If you dont have a stam regen you will hate how long it takes to run places If you guys think 15m timer for battlegrounds are bad, you should of see how long it took wizards to teleport you to pvp at release. Hope your side has a way to actually lvl up to max lvl at launch, gently caress you mythic for not fixing albion's leveling areas. Crafting actually had the best items, but took alot of money and planning to max stats. Tenzarin fucked around with this message at 19:25 on Oct 5, 2015 |

Xae posted:Also by firing half of the team immediately after launch and moving the other half to try and salvage TOR. Except Daoc had like 20+ classes and it was balanced stupid awful. Best example midguard thralls(?) the melee wizard hybrid. They were god tier in till you couldn't stun lock entire zergs, then they turned into trash tier forever.

The game just wont work with all the up to date features of an MMO. There's already GW2 and ESO that have the huge rvr maps.

Kimsemus posted:But GW2's biggest weakness is 50% of the content is just zerg slamming meta, the other 50% is just constantly ghost capping. You're incentivized to avoid combat and just rotate through keeps. HAHA this never happened in daoc because people were dumb back then and didnt know any of the maps. Because just about none of the frontier zones had maps. If you think people are going to slam into a keep walls for hours in TYOOL 2015. Every time they released a old/new frontier servers in daoc it turned into musical keeps.

Kazvall posted:The Wight room had oranges to a 50 iirc. Mostly I'd end up there when Lyonesse got old, or bad, or I just forgot to bind. I played on Albion 3 times, the first time as a merc. We never had pbaoe groups for catacombs it was pretty much pulling one at a time. Never made it to lvl 50 on that guy. I leveled 2 more Albion characters to lvl 50 in shrouded isles, both times with pbaoe groups. The grind dungeon was so much better in shrouded isles since it was more open and easier to navigate throughout. I think Albion had a pbaoe class not many people liked to be or something because we did not have alot of them.

Vax posted:Yet another one of those games were I think to myself "wouldn't it be awesome to have those days again back from 2000ish daoc?".... nope, not going to happen. Count me mildly interested but I dont think this game will work for a lot of gamer vets nowadays. It may work for kids/students (who will probably just play what the top 3 games on twitch viewer count says) or people with no jobs or no family who want to relive their daoc times. (nothing wrong with that) So yeah, this will probably be filled with around 3000 players over all manifesting in like 5-6ish big guilds tryharding 24/7 and "having fun" with themselves. You forgot the part where like a few guilds will stomp face and over half of the other people will leave because they remembered they were 10 during daoc and that they also hate losing.
