My brother bought the real game. Beta is long over. I'm trying to hit lvl 40 before I marry.

Anyone else still playing?

The honor system screwed the game over...

Instead of making people engage in fair fights, people try to power-level their honor rank by grouping a number of level 60s together and wandering the road, camping corpses, etc... In places as low as Feralas even!

I was bored with the game once I hit 60 due to the fact that the endgame relied on raiding, and if you weren't in a big raid guild full of elitist power-gamers, you were **** outta luck...

Now the focus is shifting from raiding instances to raiding various areas to gain honor, which means a fair fight for nobody and lots of ganking for all, now there's a reason to do it!

It doesn't sound like a very fun idea, and so I don't do it, so it adds nothing to the game experience except getting ambushed everytime I'm on the road...

Enjoy!

Hm yeah they better implement Dishonourable Kills for low players. That should solve some stuff....

And I think things will be much better in a week from now.

Anyone still play this game and how have you progressed?

Canyarion · 12-06-2005, 05:14 PM

I stopped about 4 months ago, when my brother and me got bored with it.

He was lvl 60 NE rogue, while I was a 42 Gnome warlock. I didn't actually pay for it, he did.

He plans to play again when the expansion comes out, so I guess I'll continue my warlock then.

I stopped playing probably around the January following it's release. I didn't like it. Now it sits in a bin in the garage. I'm going to sell it.

Play WarCraft 3 with me. It's better.

My brother just got this for Christmas, and I played for an hour today. I like it a lot.

I'm a level 3 orc warrior. I don't know what server I'm on but if you want to give me anything to help a noob out I'd appreciate it.

Dyne · 12-31-2005, 01:08 AM

Well I just got to level ten. How do you switch servers? Can you switch characters between them?

Not yet. Blizzard plans to release this service later.

Rumored price is $40 per character for server transfers. You're not very far, I'd just reroll if you want to play with somebody.

Man, I've been thinking a lot about starting up this game again. My few months with it last year were swell; plenty of fond memories. I never got addicted to it like I did with FFXI (it's like cocaine that doesn't give you a buzz), but more than anything I remember it being a fun game, which is, like, really feckin bizarre for an MMORPG.

If you guys keep playing, let me know. I may start up again in a month or so.

As far as pointers, Dyne, start crafting early on and pick something that'll suit your class well. For example, I was a hunter and I chose skinning/leathercrafting, cause most of my armor is leather and selling pelts was decent green.

That's all I can really think about in terms of advice.

Yeah, I probably won't play with anybody anyways. I'm pretty much a loner in it right now. I've declined like 15 group invitations already.

And thanks for the advice DM. I've started mining and blacksmith. I assume those are good for my class. I've already found plans for a copper mail or something so it was natural.

Typhoid · 12-31-2005, 03:00 AM

I've never been able to get into the game.

Mainly, I'm just doing a post/time check right now.

there is character transfer, but you cant do it whenever, they allow it on new realms, so for example, a 4 new realms just opened they want them to be as populated as possible so you can switch into it, what im going to do is get a bunch of my buddys and when a new realm opens we all switch in...

Canyarion · 01-06-2006, 03:50 PM

Also, you can only transfer to those realms if your own server is over-populated (hence the new ones....)
