    I doubt there's hundred or even thousands of people waiting for Halloween goodies to come back to the game...
    WTS: IP for reading skills.

    I think you might have understood from the original post that the engine people were not disturbed by halloween niceties.

    WoW is copypasting hecklers into their game? I knew it, I knew it, powerleveling has reached WoW too. Soon there will be BS...

    Well there is the 7 or 14 day or whatever it is now trial. The beginning areas that you'd have access to are the old ones, still from 2004. With Cataclysm, Blizzard is redoing the entire levelling process, revamping the entire original world. (as you could see from the video. Not stated in the video: level ranges are being changed too. Some zones were for a certain level range, now they're for another one, so it's a better overall levelling experience)

    At low details, yes. When you can raise the details, it looks very pretty. And yes, I can agree that seeing just screenshots or youtube videos can make it seem cartoon-y, but when you actually play the game, it all works so well together, that sometimes it looked more realistic than AO to me.

    Feel free to send me a PM of where I've shown close-minded irrational hate. I'm sure there's an example you can find, but a very large majority of my hate has a completely rational explanation, which, since you said this, I'm sure you're dying to know.

    BS is copy-pasted from WoW already, they're called BGs and they've been an integral part of WoW since it launched in 04.

    Oh come on. Let's not start that old discussion. WoW stole half of their features from EQ! Lies EQ took it from DaoC! omg no way daoc took it from ultima 8!!11

    Adding in nice ideas from other games has been happening from day 1 in the development of MMOs and while wow is being copied a lot, they hardly invented the features like pvp zones or rolling systems.

    This means almost nothing at all!
    Now, one of the reasons we’ve spent the last month arguing about the debt ceiling is that half of the "teabag" Congress signed a vow to never raise taxes. Someone just handed them something and it wasn’t a gun, a crucifix or a fetus — so they signed it. Why? "Because we’re rugged individuals who love freedom. Now excuse us while we sign this document swearing to do as we’re told." --Bill Maher

    Ok, can we send the village fool back to play wow and get back on topic (haha)?

    That's not the point of what he was saying though.

    Well, what is the point? That WoW isn't bad? Don't think anyone seriously believes it is. That prejudices are bad? Then starting the whole "omg xxx did it first" debate that has been annoying 10 years ago already isn't the best aproach to that.
    To counter the quote that "WoW copypasted hecklers into the game"? That post has broken the sarcasm-o-meter already and even supplied the wink-smiley for the doubtful.

    Hey I'm not disagreeing that the "wow hatezor" is dumb and it does certainly look nice. I'll never play it personally but that's a personal choice and doesn't make the game bad in any way. I really cannot stand any more of the "omg wow did it first" or "they stole it from EQ/WoW/AO/DaoC" comments though.

    Now, whether he was serious or not, isn't really important atm.

    Point being that WoW already has BS's in the form of batthegrounds. He was just pointing out that WoW had instanced PvP with a queue-system before AO did.

    It's not about who invented instanced PvP. So going back to pre-wow MMO's for that is besides the point. The point is that WoW can't copy AO's instanced PvP because WoW has it already.

    It's just a reply to a statement. Whether Lusos101 was joking or not, what Esssch said was true. If Lusos101 didn't know that WoW had instanced PVP then he learned something now. If he did know and was only joking (as in, being sarcastic), then Esssch's reply was a bit moot but still not wrong in any shape or form

    I've been looking forward to the new Halloween items since the last ones got pulled off the tables >.>

    As far as *other mmo* goes:
    I like character creation.
    Dislike fantasy settings.
    Don't consider a team/vehicle to be a character.

    What do you have for me :P

    Of course he knows. Hence the smiley. I didn't say that the quoted part was wrong either but that's it's stupid to go into the "who did it first" discussion which I hoped it wouldn't go to... which it basically ended up anyway. So enough derail I don't wanna get further into that crap.
