World of Warcraft is Looking Outstanding!

[PaulOakenfold]

Blizzard's MMORPG has been revealed through beta testers on WorldofWar.net

I'd like to point out a few clips that some of these beta testers have taken, that look pretty amazing, except for the shitty sound recording, and the person's character recording it is some sort of dummy or something (meaning they're not really part of the game), I can't really figure it out.

Check the vids out here:

I played the Alpha. It was ok for game play but it was very unpolished (it wasn't even close to being done at that point. The world wasn't even complete). If they can pull off a good economy and trading system, something to beat the basic UO one, then i'm definatly playing this because the graphics are so fucking good.

Edit: BTW, this isn't a normal "diablo" or for lack of a better reference Subspace type game, so don't jump into it and waste 70 $ if you don't want to spend a lot of time to have fun in WOW or any other MOG. This is a Massive online game, which means it's a persistent world. Although Blizzard has done good work so far Massive online games tend to turn off most gamers pretty quickly.

I've been stuck to all blizzards games, Diablo, StarCraft .. and now Warcraft.
They are awesome! Warcraft is going to be awesome.. :up:

MMORPG's are bad for you. Stay far far away.

If you didn't like it too much, gimme your account kolar? My roommate has the beta, and I'm considering killing him in his sleep just to aquire the game.

No really, if anyone wants me to be their best friend for at least a couple months, hook a brother up?

I should have at this point stopped reading your post, but instead I'll tell you why you're wrong. First off, the game was in ALPHA! Of course the world isnt going to be even nearly complete. In the ALPHA you could only get up to level 20. The content they had in ALPHA from levels 1-20 was more polished than most completed MMO's. Judging a game based on its ALPHA (I'm going to keep capitalizing that word) is just stupid. Log in to the beta sometime, the level cap is 45, with a ton of new content for all levels.

Too bad you cashed out everyones items. My roommate now has a naked level 19 mage running around the normal server. Is it just me, or did they "fix" the bust size on the human female models?

The female dwarves and taurens are hot

Sorry but I thought I tried to explain that or that anyone reading it would understand by Alpha meant it wouldn't be finished or a playable game at that point. I didn't play it expecting a complete game, I mean, come on, it was stolden (Sorry to get your hopes up Wadi, it was on a private server. Check Suprnova for a copy of it, some servers might still be up ). All I could really do was kill some stuff and move around the world with the warp console command. I think that from just playing that I can safely say it's going to be a good game.

What I meant by unpolished was that the dynamics of the game were not finished, for example when riding a steed and hitting a wall I'd turn over and falling through the map ect... The graphics and other elements were all there and it was beautiful. Sorry, but I couldn't compare it to other MOG releases because I haven't been involved with many.

I don't think this will stand out too much as a MMORPG. Warcraft is a great RTS game, personally, unless you're a hardcore warcraft fan there are better choices out there. Everquest 2, DAOC, and even free mmorpgs such as Tibia.

I've played all the ones you mentioned (sans EQ2 because it isn't out). WoW stands out head and shoulders above those. EQ2 looks like the backside of a camel by the way.

In comparison to WoW, what do you guys think of Dark & Light? Or Guild Wars?

...If you remember that Guild Wars public beta last month, it went extremely well, managing to pick up tons of new supporters and fanatics.
They will certainly give WoW a run for their money, especially since the only fee is to purchase the game itself--no more than 50 bucks (USD).

I love WoW, through I don't play as much anymore.... it's by far one of the nicest mmorpgs out there, and I have played about everyone.

Guild Wars, is just plan awesome. I played during the 3 days or so, E3 was happening. It was really different in that you had solo elements and multiplayer elements, it will be a good game.
