I was watching a clip of WoW on the program, and it was basically two character, run at each other and do the equivilent of "bash a". You see the same sword swipe over and over again while the health bar drops....
i was like.. 
WHY DO PEOPLE PLAY THAT GAME?
To be frank, PvP gameplay in World of Warcraft is more advanced than the EVE equivalent. Don't get me wrong, I love EVE and I quit WOW long ago, but competetive PvP in WOW is waaaaaaaay ahead of EVE (... in fact, competetive PvP doesn't even exist in EVE). |

Originally by: Midge Mo'yb Yeah its so advanced everyone uses UI mods to play the game for them... very hard...
Your experience with PvP in World of Warcraft seems limited. Even with tenfolds of 3rd party interface addons to present miscellaneous information, my point still stands.
Quote: Tell that to the FCs and corp CEOs in 0.0 wars.
Pardon - I was referring to gameplay, not consequences. Needless to say, EVE is unparalleled in the department of consequences and goals.
Originally by: Malcanis As I'm not familiar with WoW PvP, could you expand on that a bit? What do you mean by "competitive PvP" - the term seems like a tautology.
Sure! As far as I'm concerned there's two kinds of PvP; casuals who do it for fun and don't really care how they fare, and nerds who spend hours upon hours refining their "skill". The latter is often dubbed "competetive PvP", and refers to competing with the best.
I'd be inclined to agree that on the casual level, gameplay is much the same and neither game is more advanced than the other. On the top, though, World of Warcraft is in a league of its own. It's a perfect blend of strategy, teamwork and reaction time that EVE tends to lack. EVE Arena |

Originally by: Mr Reeth My gaming experiences:
EQ: grind grind grind... quit
Anarchy Online: No... to painful to relive.
Horizons: "Hello? Is there anybody in here?" *tumbleweed slowly drifts by*
City of Heroes: Wow! I'm a super champion and I made it to the max level and beat all my super foes! What do I do now? *quits*
WoW Free Trial: see EQ
Second Life: While still trying to figure out the controls a fat chick kept calling me hot and begging for cyber sex. This lasted an hour. *quit*
EVE ONLINE!!: Like walking into a pitch black room and getting kicked hard in the balls by somebody who feels neither guilt nor joy at having done so.

Typical wow macro
line 1 - Activate DPS trinket #1 line 2 - Activate DPS trinket #2 line 3 - Activate Spell that makes the next spell with casting time of 10s or less instant cast line 4 - Activate 10s high damage spell
hit that button once the timers are up and you have one dead person. Lots of skill....
obvious troll is obvious. |

Hah, that's a basic one. My warlock had a macro that would trigger my damage buffs, and apply 5 damage-over-time spells just by mashing one button. Also had my Felhunter set up to automatically remove negative debuffs, and my Succubus to automatically seduce. Now that's easy mode...
Of course, that wouldn't really get you anywhere if you're competing with the best. This is my point. At the casual level, the PvP "skill cap" is about the same in WOW as EVE. It's on the top of the ladders that the PvP mechanics of WOW really shines, and I can't say the same about EVE. |

afaik in wow u cant kill any player just some players so that is not pvp for me :P
well, your knowledge is limited. :p enter the arena; http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/pvp/arena/index.xml
In a nutshell, that's why PvP gameplay is more sophisticated in WOW than in EVE. EVE Arena |

Originally by: dr doooo I've never played wow, but I'm curious. In what way do you mean that wouldn't work against the best? Do you mean that in elite wow pvp you would be beaten by a team of players with all the best stuff, best mix of characters and best tactics, or do you mean that assuming everyone is 'maxed out' on stuff, characters etc, and it's a like for like match, the elite pvper would be able to beat this sort of macro?
I'm not sure I understand. I'm trying to convey that spamming macros will not cut it when you're playing with the best in World of Warcraft, but let's not derail the topic more than necessary.
