Nadril Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I played the game when it was released for a few months. Was a leader of a fairly decent guild, ranked about 250 at one point [out of everyone in the game] for GvG's. However, once most people moved on in my guild it got booring -- fast. You see, to get into any PvP guild worth its weight and to actualy "win" in PvP you need a good guild that does groups all the time. Problem is is that they all want you to be rank 3+ [for the basic ones even!] and it is near impossible to get up to that with the majority of Guild Wars fan base. [Try PvP'ing with a bunch of pre-teens and it really is a horendous site. Most people in the game don't know what the hell to do]. In theory the game is nice. The PvP, if you were to get into a good guild, is good. However the game also had plenty of weak points: - Very short PvE campaign. Game can be "finished" in that sense in a week. - Horrendous community that nears Runescapes level of imaturity. Because a large part [sadly] of Guild Wars fan base are kids who can't pay for a subscription themselves it tends to lack -- a ton. You get a ton of idiots when grouping it seems, and there always seems to be a bunch of kiddies doing their "naked dance partys" in town. - The PvP, while very nice and takes plenty of skill, is hard to really have any way to "show your worth" to other guilds. I guess this is mostly a fault at the community, but just because someone is not rank 3 doesn't mean they are a bad PvP'er. Back when I was the leader of my Guild, and we managed to get together 8 people for PvP, we could really do some great stuff. However, dont' get me wrong, I have some great memorys of the game too. Doing the mass summon build in PvP among other "popular" and well-known buiilds. Which, is also the reason I quit -- no one is freaking origional on build ideas anymore! Everyone seemingly uses the cool "power builds" in the game until something new comes by. It really makes the PvP stale after a while. Also, more recently, I played Factions. I got it right around august and played for a month or two until I gave up for the same reasons. The games PvE content is a ton of fun, but there simply is not enough of it! And the PvP ended up becoming like last time, where 95% of pickup groups suck complete "wagon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rushrock Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 My friend and his dad plays it, and they tell me it's very fun. Maybe I should try it. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ape Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I played Factions the day of release. I hit level 20 in under 30 hours, which I was very unhappy with. I then grew to be rich by selling thousands of Naga Pelts. (Naga Trips were fun with a few mates on Skype) Me and 3 mates bought a Guild Hall and started StealthGeeks. We were a really good guild and loved PVPs... That was amazing. But, I guess it got boring too quickly. I don't want to waste my money on Nightfall, as the same will happen, and with under 100 hours of gameplay, I'll get as bored as a Lion. Oh, and by the way, I was a Ranger/Necromancer. -Mitch New sig to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eias Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 thnx for replying nadril, i agree with u about tht problem wich u can see sum warriors dancing naked... but also its scamming lvl is too low unlike RS scammers,macroers,autoers are covering the whole game, the trade window in GW is more secure and safe because when sum1 wants to scamm u or change wat he putted on the trade window it tells u tht the person is offering 0 items then it comes up with the changed item which makes lower risk of being scammed i know tht u will come up and say tht in runescape it have 2 trade windows but its still unsafe as some ppl rush to make the trade without even looking at the second trade and this happens alot i agree with you about the PvP part theres one thing i hate most about runescape which is the bad graphics i know that the game is even more addictive than cockaine but still have bad graphics i mean look at your charr you would see a box but put into a mould which looks like a human and dont forget the graphics of GW they are very good and they are more realistic than in runescape but the bad thing about GW is as u mentioned u can reach lvl 20 in a week and you can master the game so fast but have you tried to earn a title? if you tried to earn the title of tiryan master carthographer (discovered 100% of prophecis) or other titles you know what i mean this way you have alot of fun and why dont you buy other compaigns and put them into the same account? (as u said GW players are kids who doesnt pay? i think you can pay in that case) this would even keep u busy alot and makes u feel the fun of the game well.. i gotta say is tht every game has positives and negatives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman_Havoc Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I got this game as a birthday day present from my friend who is a hard core WoW player (3 Lv 60 characters). I play this if im not playing RuneScape because of the ammount of macros cutting Yews. Play it for a week then make up your mind about it thats my advice The signiture was made by demonworshiper666 because hes hard core like that!!

Nadril Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 I'm usualy not like this, but really put some effort into what you are typing? I really had a hard time trying to understand you there. Anyways I haven't played runescape in over 2 years, so not really worth it comparing the two for me. Also, a good portion of the fanbase plays the game because they don't want to play a monthly fee. Titles really are pointless. I'm a PvP'er and thats what I do, and getting into a good guild is near impossible. When I'm forced to have to group with a bunch of idiots it ruins the game for me. And of course I put the other games into the same account, I said I tried factions. I gave up after factions though because the campaign was the same exact idea. Get through the campaign -- nothing to do. I played in the open beta of nightfall and, to be honest, I was just getting tired of the same old same old stuff.

pompey_spud Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 But Nadril and Mahatma, do you not agree that it is too large? Or at least that the learning curve is incredibly steep? I remember in particular a mission called 'The Great North Wall' or something of the like. I would be doing it for like an hour, and then my friends computer would lag, causing me to have to start at the very beginning again. Lump in with that that it wasnt a very good mission to start with, and you get a very very long and tedious necessity of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eias Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 u just take sum guys with u and its done in 5 mins there's still more harder than the first 1 the ring of fire one is one of the hardest its near impossible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one Mission on Factions where there was about a bajillion Putrid Cyst monstors and for some reason or other they would ALWAYS go for my Monk(Healer) first so I was stuck with rubbish healing spells throughout. I eventually did it was a party of friends who were roughly equally skilled to myself, which made it a whole lot easier, as you could tell them what to do. -Mitch New sig to come!
