I played matrix online a long time ago for a month or two.
The setting was beautiful and fun to explore.
The gameplay was horrible. Perhaps I'm understating things... THE GAMEPLAY WAS HORRIBLE!!!!! |

I keep hearing people say that LotRO is going to die. But ironically most can't back up any of their reasons why. I just don't see it happening. As one other guy said, its pretty polished with plenty of content to go around. PvP is more engaging than WoW and one can spend more time doing that then playing a regular character. The economy could be better but then all MMO's who don't have SWG-esque decay suffer from the same problem. At least the cooks are making money hand over fist.

Been playing planetside for the past two days after work and been having great fun. Dying mostly since my lvl sucks. only two servers so much better for battles. Heard it was rather scarce on the ground for good fights before.
Hence this is the reason for my poorly received thread of eve and planetside combined for planet conquering.

I agree the combat of just bad no mattor what any one says.
Warhammer will Fail soon it was going great till patch 1.2 screwed the balance over that much that with in a month it went for around 500k subs to around 300k.
Hell if they was to roll back 1.2 class balance i bet they would get around 100k+ players back.
LOTRO is going to die im sure of that the combat in the game is so slow it put me to sleep i could not get past level 18.
DDO only just has gameplay above the matrix so im sure its going to die.
JG im fairly sure thats going to be amassive hit at first then just fade away and stay around with like 400k-600k players.
SW(new) Meh its been done befor its going to crash and burn after maybe 2 year's if there lucky.
ST what i work out of the gameplay its going to be so boring its not funny.
AOC it will be around a few more year's i think.
World of ****ers never going to be shut down hell most likey going to become skynet/the matrix and take over the world.
And EVE i don`t think we will see the end for many many many years to come its easy got maybe 10 years life left or more.
Death is great rember where all dying to get there. |

Surprised nobody has mentioned Guild Wars; it's been out now for 4+ years if I remember correctly. I was actively playing it for about 3 and half years before I jumped on the EVE band wagon when Trinity came out. GW is an awesome MMO, not to mention free, but there's been very minimal talk about GW2 which was announced 2+ years ago and haven't heard much since. NCSoft is probably busy with their Aion MMO...?

...CCP is the antithesis of SOE.
Sony can ruin anything. They make crap. Their gaming philosophy has never evolved beyond the view that the players are privileged to be in "their worlds". When EQ was the only game in town they could get away with that crap. These days they are suffering for it.
This is the deciding factor for me to never ever give another dollar to the utter monstrosity and blasphemous demon spawned malformated atropal from the dark crevices of the void that is SoE a.k.a. SONY ONLINE ENTERTAINMENT.
They have the MIDAS touch with a different Polarity, I'll call it the "ENTROPIC touch of Utter DOOM".
ANYTHING, even the most wonderful and well thought out piece of software, that falls on their hands is a goner. Nothing can survive the absolute nihilism of their "vision" when infringed upon any game.
CCP, on the long, twisting road that they are taking paving their own hell with their "good intentions" regarding EVE will eventually sell their Soul to a dark amorphous form and manifestation of the depraved false god of MONEY. If they ever do I hope they sell their soul to the same avatar of deceit as Blizzard did instead of SoE.
I totally hate the way SoE buys all kinds of mmo's and let them rot just to fill their "marvelous" Station Access Pass, on wich, for ONLY 29.99 a month you can play TONS UPON TONS OF THRIVING AND WONDERFUL MMO's!
It's like those guys that buy terminally ill puppies/dogs/pets, give them a touch of make up and sell them to you looking like brand new healthy specimens. After a couple of days you realize your dog is SICK and dying and the company that sold it to you says "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" as they try to comfort you selling you another sick terminally ill puppy.

Once or twice a year I manage to convince myself to reactivate my Dragonrealms account.
Dragonrealms is text-only MUD published by Simutronics. It started out on AOl/Compuserv back in like 1996. As far as MUD's go, it's easily one of the most epic in the fantasy genre. If you can manage to let your imagination draw the pictures for you, the game has an amazing combat system, and definitely THE MOST creative magic systems in any game I've ever played.
If you old schoolers ever miss playing a MUD, or wanted to know what gaming was like before graphics cards and flashy pixels, this is it. Great memories.

anyone know of another good MMO? I'd like something else to %#$$ the wife off with. EVE just isn't enough anymore
two words....
Dark Fail
Fixed that right up for you. The only good thing about Darkfail is how much respect you develop for CCP.
I'm sure you want to chimp in with the standard Darkfail forum nonsense at this point "did you get naked zerged?" etc etc etc.
No. I just have standards. And Darkfail fell sublimely short of them. A long long way short.
Maybe in a year or two they will have at least added a player market. But I doubt it. |

Darkfall is run by a company and inhabited by players that assume a game containing non-consensual PvP and free looting automatically is it a sandbox type of game. It is not.
Secondly, Darkfall suffers from many design flaws that early players have been taken much advantage of; a behavior quite similar to early days in EVE but apparently nobody learned from that. These flaws later get "adjusted" making it much harder for newer players to get a foothold in the game. Contrary to EVE the opening of a new server might help on this problem or it could simply kill the game off as conquest have much less meaning when there are different instances of the game. |

Thanks for the Hint, made me check my long forgotten email and there it was, the invitation for 1 free month :)
It was my first mmo, good years playing that game. I dont play it for 3 years but I hope it lasts for some more years, sadly it seems that FUNCOM dont want to focus their strenght in improving the game. From what i have seen playerbase still waiting for the graphic engine upgrade. That was promissed after i left..

SWG should have invested more into the space side of SW, running around planets is fun and all, but that isnt what I liked most about SW.

SOE was able to turn a money printing game like SWG into utter crap-ola. EA botched up MCO after about 6 months by killing the economy.
I am still searching for another good MMO to compliment EVE when I am station camped or burnt out |

I played MXO for a good two and a half years before coming to Eve and I have to say, the population has been consintrated to fanatics. Seriously, I went back to the forum to check some things out and there were serious threads asking for SOE to release the code so private servers could be setup, I think even one talked about buying the rights.
MXO in my opinion is a text book example of what happens to a game when the playerbase is so blindly loyal to the name that they take anything the developers will give them and praise it as the next best thing to sliced bread.

I would be very surprised if eve shuts down within the next decade. Its far far too successful a game for that, though one can never guess if a critical game breaking bug will ever appear that will drive the population away.
I've survived through two online games getting shut down. Motor City online, and Earth and Beyond, both of which were pretty cool games (in their time). Since Eve isn't controlled by EA, I don't see it going anywhere anytime soon.
With any luck, the eve servers will become skynet before they ever shutdown.
as long as we maintain our current sub count of 300,000 eve has a revenue of 45 million dollars a year. CCP keeps refusing buyout requests, and is generally focused at doing what companies should be doing. Focusing less on money, and more on improving the game and keeping customers happy. Regardless of your experiences in eve, you know this to be fact.
That said, EVE will continue to survive so long as the devs continue to create new things, and you continue to play and have fun.
300,00 subscrptions i thought space was crowded with just 8000 no matter .i think eve has some life left in it atm
