They are asking too much from us. If it's not one thing it's another.



Wow, has it ever crossed your mind you may be taking a video game too serious?


Perhaps try a real 3d hobby.

If you think my opinion is idiotic, re-read yours.
Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

If you are angry/raging over an online game, you need to stop playing. Period. No game is worth getting upset/angry/sick for.

part of the point of game forums is to discuss problems with the game. i think you guys are reading too much into it.

something you enjoy gets screwed up your going to want to voice your opinion on it. i think he has some valid complaints, blizzard really has dropped the ball recently.

as to the pvp vs pve debate the players shouldn't be blaming each other. this isn't pvp people vs pve people. its both sides suffering because its being badly handled. blizzard tries too hard to make everything in pvp, and even in pve for that matter, dead even between classes. its a impossible goal and constant fiddling with it does nothing but irritate players.

It's definitely not a PvE vs PvP war, but rather an arenas against everything else one. Read my previous post about the futility of trying to balance a MMORPG with 10 classes (and 30 different specs) based on 2, 3 or 5 man "duels".

This is of course true. Take a few months break, at least. Totally agreed here. Not to mention it sends Blizzard the only message they will ever understand.

So why doesn't Blizz just make skills and spells change when in PvP arenas and BGs like in Guild Wars?
In Guild Wars for PvE, skills have one set of attributes, and when zoning into PvP areas they change to suite their balance requirements............

When even the fanboys are whining, you know the game is in trouble

Fact of the matter is that we're still playing beta. There are major changes going on with both class and encounter mechanics. They may have stretched themselves too thin in trying to balance for pvp, 10s and 25s equally.

One thing is sure though - no matter how many people complain here, the game is VERY far from needing to "be saved", and won't be during many years to come. WoW will definitely still be running years after most if not all here, including possibly myself, stopped playing it.

true...but he said saved for "me". he meant for himself. i don't think any of us think WoW is going to drop off the mmo map even if things get worse than they are. it has too much momentum built up and even small games like AC are still managing fine.

i do think that WoW is going to lose some significant numbers to rift though, at least for a while. whether they stay gone all depends on how rifts end game pans out.

Agree with most of this.

They seem to be pretty lazy with their fixing of a lot of issues.

PvP has been doing downhill since they introduced Arenas and arena gear though, imo.
