I just wanted to comment and say that a friend of mine got into your guild ( not a real life friend, an in game friend I made in a past game ) so I checked out your site and I would like to compliment you on a fantastic job well done. Looks like you all have your "stuff" together and it is obvious you guys will be a great guild. Nice job from me personally, on behalf of the rest of my guild, we can respect a nice site. Keep up the good work.

This means a lot. Thank you. ^^ A lot of nights of little to no sleep getting the site to look good. :)

Yeah, it is a fantastic site. I was going to apply to your guild earlier but the ranged DPS classes filled up fast. BUT Scorn was the guild I was looking at for WAR. By the way, the person I was referring to I believe became your Ranged DPS Officer or something of the sort. Good luck with your last couple of spots for your guild and good luck when your game starts! I will be looking forward to seeing some movies you all make on youtube and hearing from him the destruction you cause!

 

Sincerely,

White of the Acolytes!

Aye, Broma is a good guy. Theres always room for friends though. Assuming your application is up to par. :)

 

Even if our recruitment is closed for said classes, we are still allowing applications via this matter:

Note: If the Archetype that you are applying for is full (Closed Recruitment):

In your application thread please post a valid email address so that if an available position opens up we can contact you. This is assuming you are accepted.

If your application is accepted we will notify you via a PM that it is a 'Pending Application.'
Your application will then be moved to our 'Pending Forum' for 30 days.

- There is no Guarantee that a spot will open up.
- After 30 days your application will be removed and denied.
(Feel free to post a new one after 30 days.)
- Check your email regularly, as members in a pre-release guild often leave.
- Applications will be accepted in the order on how good they are.
- If Accepted, you have three days to get back to us.
(If you do not your application will be removed and denied.)

- Anom

Sounds like a stand up offer, I may have to look into this!

Warhammer with its graphics currently seems to support very large RvR encounters. Which makes sense because the game is all about RvR. AoC in its current build can't seem to handle anything beyond 3v3 matches. Which might make sense with GvG environments but doesn't make for very exciting or epic battles. Why do you think they haven't demoed large numbers of live players with AoC yet? Because they are finding out their graphics make pvp unplayable. So they cut down the number of players at these events so that people won't notice the problem... until after they buy it of course $$$

I'll take huge battles with lower graphics over small arena matches with good graphics any day of the week.

Next gen does not mean a pretty coating of paint covering a rotten foundation.

I don't see why you continue to throw shots at AoC all the time lol. *Sigh* . We listed many reasons for you why they haven't shown major battles besides the scripted one. One could be the amount of computers at the event, one could be the internet at the events, one could be the fact that none of those players knew how to play, they got a 15 minute tutorial run of the basic buttons. That build, for one, was not meant to have mass amounts of players on that build. Claiming that they couldn't have big battles because of graphics without proof is somewhat laughable. But then again, you just continue to bash AoC without fact, so I guess that would be a normal response from you.

 

No, graphics do not make an mmorpg, but if it compliments the setting, they are good. Also, it isn't like WAR showed off mass amounts of players at the events either.

You gave many reasons but none of them were valid and easily disproved. Not to mention, all of them are based on Funcom faith and not any real proof to back it up.

 

You can blame space, computers at the event, the network connection etc. but why is it that funcom was the only one there that seemed to suffer from these limitations? Mythic had no problem settings up several dozon pcs. At just about every event. Funcom always has an excuse. Only 3v3 matches. Only bot sieges. But naturally its always someone else's fault.

I should have known anything negative said about AoC would entice you out of your troll cave. You just can't resist sallying forth to protect your precious little baby boomer. You've really earned that Acolytes merit badge! I think I liked it better when you were claiming (which was apparently false) to ignore my posts. Have a little follow through for cryin out loud.

You crack me up lol. How can I be a troll without saying anything negative about WAR? I think you need to take a look in the mirror. Not all games there were offered the same amount of space on the floor, or computers. Quit being ignorant. If you would like me to be negative about WAR then explain how Age of Conan beat out WAR for Best PvP experience. How come at Dragon Con it was AoC turning people away because there were too many there, not WAR? How come Age of Conan won Best Online game at the Games Convention and not WAR?

Ok, you are half way there. Now do AoC , that is if you are unbiased.

 

I have proven more times than not that I enjoy all games for what they are worth, I make post like this when posters like you post ignorant things or try to TURN EVERYTHING INTO WAR vs AOC. You can talk good about one game without putting another down. I have been thanked on both the DarkFall forums and these very WAR forums for being unbiased and not being a AoC fanboy while posting. I think the majority of the users here know this and will understand why I am posting this to you.

My post was not the first that mentioned AoC. Nor the first that mentioned its graphics. People have already compared these two titles in regards to the term 'next gen' long before I showed up.

I don't believe I posted anything ignorant. Quite the contrary, I believe that blindly believing anything a company tells you is quite ignorant, which is definitely what I am not doing. You are putting your full trust in Funcom. You are taking their word for it. Which is entirely your decision. But when I see two competing companies go to the same event, right across from eachother, and one has all these 'troubles' and one doesn't, when I see those same companies go to other events, and one always has all these 'troubles' and one doesn't, when I see lots of claims being made about what their game can handle, and I see one showing it and the other not showing  it.... well I think any REASONABLE human being would go 'hmmm'.  To do anything otherwise would be quite biased.

A jury is supposed to be unbiased. Does that mean that they never think or say anything bad about the defendent if the evidence might suggest it? No of course not, if they only said the positive and stayed away from the negative... they would hardly make a good jury. A message board with only positive isn't a message board.. it is an advertising board.

 

Also I never claimed you had to be positive all the time, just when you post negative, be constructive about it. You just claimed that AoC attacked WAR but must have forgot about all the times the WAR forum users have come to the Age of Conan boards and done the exact same.

Ah, I see fanboyism here that is at the same level as VG fanboyism was at. Some perseverent trolls as well, looks nice.

 

Oh and, I really hope that WAR takes a large part of the WoW fan-base, wouldn't ever want to share AoC with them :)

Meh, I was one of those Vanguard fanboys actually. I understand why they are defending their game. Especially when this topic is made in a negative connotation. This post could have easily been added to the "What makes a next gen mmo" topic, and he would have been taught that graphics do not = next gen.

Theres no other reason why there are so many threads here putting down WAR, sad part is they have no actual facts or evidence to why they are putting it down, mostly the complaints are about "prove to me this game is good" or the inevitable game comparisons.

 

People, no one is forcing you to play WAR, if you don't like it go somewhere else. There is no reason for anyone to try and prove to YOU whoever YOU are that this game is worth playing. If you're so interested in WAR and whats great about it, then go look it up yourself. 

 

Its fact that every game in MMO history has evolved off eachother borrowing whatever works and adding more Mythic is not "stealing" or "ripping off" other games since every game it could possibly take from has already taken that same thing from another game and another and another.

 

Theres hundreds of other MMO's for these type of people to troll, but they choose WAR, not because its actually bad in anyway but to the contrary they troll here because its going to be great and they're afraid of it, if they are planning to play a different MMO in 2008 they know WAR will take their subscribers, if they're playing a current MMO they know WAR will take their subscribers. By putting down WAR they feel more secure, almost trying to prove to themselves that the game will be bad so they will think that their own game is better, which is practically a case of self delusion.

 

I'm most positive people wont stop, and we'll see the same topics over and over like we already are, but i wish some would just take a step back and look at themselves and what their motives are before posting.

 

History repeats itself.

Dinosaurs attacked humanity.
Religion attacked Science
Europe attacked the colonies
Communism attacked Capitalism
Sega attacked Nintendo
Mac attacked PC
EQ2 attacked WoW
AoC attacked WAR

But when the dust clears.......

 

 

 

See what I did there?

Yup, trolling as always!

That's more your domain.

Except I have been giving unbiased opinions of both games, and even DarkFall. Notice the post I had before yours, don't remember if it was this thread or the other one, it had nothing to do with a WAR vs AoC battle. That is what you attempt to turn every topic into that you chime in on.

I don't believe you are unbiased at all. I agree that your earlier post in this thread was fair. But I do not think that accurately represents your behavior all the time. An important part of being unbiased is to accept both positive and negative things said about a game. To only want positive compliments is to be biased. And it doesn't have to be me posting - if anyone posts anything that isn't a compliment about AoC it will get jumped on by an elite few members (they know who they are). I see a post you made in the AoC forum recently insulting someone because he said the people watching the nudity footage all appeared to be teenagers. Was that unbiased? Seemed like a fair statement.. but it was negative... and you didn't like it.

 

To blindly generalize and say every post I join I turn into a WAR vs AoC battle for no other reason than because I have posted a few things against AoC.... is biased. It simply isn't true. You want it to be true to rationalize your dislike of me, but it isn't. I don't know what more I can say. I tried to get the other guy who said that to actually read my post history, but he accused me of trying to get him banned, heh.

Also, there is a difference in posting out of concern, and trolling. He was trying to start a fight with the AoC users, it was obvious.

There have been many topics here where Age of Conan is bashed, and I leave them alone. It is when people post opinions but post them in a matter that they try to make them out to be fact. Like what Jor888 used to do claiming Age of Conan was a PVE game with a little pvp thrown in. Those are the users I go back at.

well probably before AoC lol 2009, probably early 2010 for AoC. Darkfall release Q1 2008.

Explain to me how darkfall will be ready to relese in Q1 2008 if they haven't had even announced a beta yet?

 

Fixed

 

Don't get me wrong.  I would love to see Darkfall and play it.  If it's anything even remotely close to what it's promising it'll be great.  But I'm not holding my breath at this point.  Anyone can say they're ready for beta.  But the bottom line is that it doesn't matter what they SAY.  As has been said many times:

Their publishing method has nothing, zero, zip, nada, to do with launching a beta or not.   If they're ready for a beta they should be in beta to try to have it ready by the holidays.  Otherwise they are going to miss their single best chance to get it widely distributed quickly. 

 

Unfortuneately no publishing has to do with with launching beta. A publisher could set up servers, maitnenece, ect. everything they need to run it. No running costs money and with no income. If there going to do that they mine as well self-publish but they need to weigh their options against publishing.

It isn't worth it Ques. No matter how much you explain things, people just don't understand and attempt to put the game down. It is the nature of forums, unfortunately.

why are there so many haters out there. Who cares if other players don't feel WaR is their type of game. Thats the great thing about MMOs nowadays...there's so much variety to appeal to the needs of different type of gamers. I personally can't wait for WaR but I won't put down other people that don't feel the same way i do about a game. I'm sure any mature minded gamer would agree that while arguing why cetain MMOs are good and others aren't up to par might be fun to do =d in the end its just a game and eventually something better will always be on the horizon. For now I'd just suggest players keep an open mind especially if there are still new to MMOs and explore the different games till they find their niche.

Exactly what I was just saying. There is no real need for somebody to put down another game, especially if they haven't played it. But, for some reason there are always people out there looking for their drama fix on a forum somewhere.
