Kimsemus posted:DAoC was quite good, mechanically, and was one of the few MMOs that got the whole RvR thing mostly correct, and gave guilds a purpose beyond being a social club. DAoC was pretty rough around the edges, and suffered the class fatigue that GW2 is currently dealing with -- some classes are very useful for RvR, but if you're not one of those classes, prepare for a life loneliness. this is some rose tinted glasses it was good for its day since it didn't really have competition it was horrible mechanically Guilds could do what, own a keep, upgrade it, lose it at night unless they guarded it for a few days. Unless we are talking old frontiers. There were a few classes that could debuff their own damage type and those were supreme. No caps on how many targets aoes could hit was a big problem for a long time. Rogues and archers being able to one shot something from stealth and stay in stealth. Thanes literally having a lag hammer. Rune priests were the same for awhile. 30 minute cool downs on abilities that lasted 1-5 minutes or were instant and could be resisted. The best move most melee had was a taunt or detaunt since it was low stamina usage. They had to add in AAs to prevent melee trains from just hitting casters and even then they just gave an pbaoe root out but also gave the ability to purge that poo poo.

Fauxtool posted:this was not at all my experience. maybe you played on a lovely server with lovely players. one of my favorite bugs in the game was holding down screen shot while jumping if your computer was old enough and the write speed was bad you would just go through the air and you could jump over border keeps this way also fun things on the EU version, the game shipped with dev tools so someone spawned legion all over the place from darkness falls the weird pet elemental class albs had got a realm ability that was like a siege bolt for doors, and could be done beyond sight range. We had someone knock most of the doors down to a relic keep without triggering any guard response since they were so far away.

I enjoyed daoc but they had a good game despite the developers. It had lots of problems and when wow came out, wow really was a vast improvement in game play. http://users.telenet.be/mmodata/Charts/Subs-2.png it peaked one year after launch and hovered around that for awhile until about 2005 http://users.telenet.be/mmodata/Charts/Subs-1.png that is when wow came out 2003 was trials of atlantis and that is that huge dip. They had a lot of issues with class design, despite it being neat, some classes were just worthless, some were overpowered, and there were also map design issues. These things carried over into WAR and were still issues then. If the game was fun, it was by accident with the lead developers making constant decisions that ruined that enjoyment. Camelot Unchained has a few warning signs like how they wanted to give you the ability to design your own spells and combat skills. They did that once in daoc on the warlock and that was never really balanced. Mark Jacobs isn't a good developer.

It had similar issues to daoc. Really neat classes, some were very overpowered, not all the classes or cities were out at the start. They added arenas at every level, made rvr lakes that were split into level brackets. Didn't like being outnumbered in RvR? Go into an arena and make the problem of RvR worse. hosed up the map design and the physical map on these. Split the area into 3 fronts despite there being only 2 teams. So no third team to help balance out the imbalanced numbers. And when you finally got to the last bracket, you ran into border forts that required you to do pve or later a lot of pvp to get a better tier of armor that had a ward against the instant damage the forts would do to everyone. Otherwise you would just die. The PvE was also broken constantly.

I really need to stress the ward on armor more for WAR. There were like 5 wards you could get. Each was a different tier and would work for that tier and everything below it. Lesser, Greater, Superior, Excelsior, and Supreme. There were still different tiers of armor, just for an example, the Tier 4 dungeon / rvr armor gave you the lesser ward which did the following "A Lesser Ward effect will reduce damage in High Level City Dungeon and Fortress encounters by 40% (down from 300%) and can stack up to 5 times. It also increases your own damage upwards by 15% (up from 40%) in those encounters and can stack up to 5 times." The tiers broke down into wards for high level city dungeons and fortresses, lost vale and city invasion PQs, City boss encounters, king fights, and then who knows since the content was cut. Some of these armors could be gained from PvE fights but the dungeons were not all in at launch. This was never announced before game launch, and was removed down the line and replaced with the sigil system, which was the same thing as the ward system just without the armor. That is Mark Jacobs. He will make grandiose statements about how great the game will be or can be and gently caress it all up. He will get a few things right, but then try to fix things by breaking them more. And history has shown he hasn't learned any lessons from his bad game design choices.

This is the most fun I had in war https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bThwjcEM9rE We would go make engineer alts and go into the T1 arenas. It would be 11 engineers and 1 really confused bright wizard vrs whatever.

WoW was such an improvement over EQ1 and DaoC it was amazing. Health regen EQ1 - 30 minutes between pulls unless you had a cleric and enchanter for mana regen. This was fixed later on. DaoC - pulls were pretty consistent. Many healer classes, good sources of mana regen, Without these it was still a minute to five between pulls. WoW - you can eat food now to get health back just sit the gently caress down Levels EQ1 - you could lose exp by death, you could lose levels by death, you had hell levels that took more exp DaoC - you couldn't lose levels by death, you could return most exp by finding your grave, last 10 levels had half steps to prevent you from losing more than 50% of your level once you hit 50% of your level. WoW - gently caress you level up every day Gear EQ1 - best in slot, mostly raids, took a long time and a lot of drama. Crafting wasn't good even when it was. While leveling you had to do specific things or be hosed. A lot of gear score poo poo and twinks. DaoC - Crafting still bad. Gear decays over time with use. Can never fully repair. Great gear from raids, good gear from spell crafting. WoW - Purps purps purps gently caress lets go raiding. DaoC was a good improvement over EQ1 but WoW came along and did the same thing. A lot of the poo poo from DaoC was just loving awful.

I keep remembering more and more things about how dated that game was. While it was neat to finally have a ground targeted aoe, the default way to cast them as to hold F5, wait for a cusor to appear, then use WASD to move it to where you thought you wanted it cast. This was neat since you could cast things right behind walls using it and very few people got the ability. Then wow came about and said lol just aim your mouse idiots

I am eagerly waiting to see the maps since GW2 got the right idea but did it wrong, War got the wrong idea and did it wrong, and ESO seems to have the best idea going but will probably gently caress it up with their new expansion. I am a nerd for good map design and the farther it gets from thidrankii from daoc the worse they tend to be.

the bad part about those free characters was the underpopulated realms got the 30s and the over populated realms got the 20s so the battlegrounds were all lopsided.

they had to have their tank pet out, buffs from a druid, a warden help but iirc wasn't needed, and they had to be in a horrible spec to get that enchant buff. I tried doing the same thing with spiritmasters after they were buffed. Before this buff, midguard had no pbaoe. Then spirit masters got it and got pet buffs like intercept, and that owned.

Orv posted:Camouflage is a separate mechanic from stealth, which runs off their Veilstorm lore thing and is actual, WoW Rogue stealth. Two classes will have that but have distinct roles and systems. quote:Dark Age of Camelot is regarded by many as having the best stealth system in any MMORPG, and I think that Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning also had an interesting stealth system. He then goes on to list his criteria which the previous two games would not meet easily his camo idea is just horrible in a video game, not because of balance but because of implementation and I don't expect him to be able to pull this off with his track record the veil idea is ok though

Sorry, kinda wanna talk about this camo thing I got it to work once in a game and it was daoc at high levels most people tried to use the most rare and expensive dyes, I instead removed my dyes on my blademaster The effect was I had this gray white armor. It did two things. It made me look like a guard and let me blend into the white trees. I got to scout with it without stealth by hiding behind a tree large enough to hide me and far enough away for name plates to not appear. There is a lot of things that can make this just not work, like long distance tab targeting, auto selection when using an ability, clicking somewhere, or pretending it will work in an open field. You could do it, but I don't think that he can lead a team who could.
