hey guys.

Ive never paid for an MMO so ive only ever played free ones like Diecide and Eternal Lands! Eternal Lands is a great free MMO!! loved it!

Anyway..I think its time for me to move on now and play some real MMOs out there. Now..I am a HUGE FAN of Ancient warfare, eg: ROME.

I just checked Gods and Heroes Rome Rising and I LOVE the graphics and its based on my favourite period in time!!! The only problem is..there is no trial??? is there??? could someone find me a trial version or something so I can give it a go???? Thanks alot!!!


Now....what other MMos would you recommend? I am not one for fantasy games such as WoW and am MUCH more down the lines of Age of Conan! which I will be buying no questions asked! is there any other realistic enough MMOs out there?? go on! tell me!

Thanks.

Other than AoC and Warhammer, there are no big games that are coming out any time soon. I wouldn't bother with free ones. They suck too much. Also, keep in mind AoC and WAR might not be up to the hype.
More realistic: Pirates of the Burning Sea(coming out next year), Chronicles of Spellborn(Guildwars style gfx).
Also, the new WoW expansion features improved pvp.

rf online is not a shooter game. it is more like hack and slash.

Pirates of the burning sea is pretty cool looking (they have an nda on beta testers at the moment, i may make a post on gamepowerup once it's lifted)

and of course conan looks like its going to be good, though its been delayed again (it was supposed to release in october)

Other than that eve online is the only one i liked the look of (i have friends who play world of warcraft, and it just aint my cup of tea, too much like a full time job)

ive played two worlds. it aint an MMO :p I thought it was a terrible game..I found the fighting style to be really bad!

hmm..its a pitty...I really expected there to be a big MMO based on ROME...I played Roma Victor a year ago...but it was so so so slow..the problem with it is its to realistic...like..you never actualy fight...well..maybe a full year of training..you will be able to battle with the enemys...other than that..your screwed!

I guess...AOC is the only one..and I suppose I will have to wait :p

Thanks anyway.

Gods and Heroes got canceled because the game was going nowhere. I participated in beta. Performance was getting worse and worse. Reminded Vanguard a little bit.

If you want something that's established, then EQII or LOTRO. You can trial WOW, if you like cartoons for MMO rejects.

Guild Wars puts a different spin on the traditional MMO forte, but if you're not going for PVP, then it's a bit pointless.

Vanguard
tanked pretty hard, and is not a good beginner's MMO.

RF and FF:XI are typical jap anime junk, and in no way medieval like.

Eve Online isn't what you're looking for from what you described.

Hellgate London is a laugh. Fury is an even bigger laugh.

Play EQII trial, then do LOTRO trial. When you get to LOTRO trial, PM me.

Other than that, you're idea to wait for AOC is a good one.

310kbps? Poor you, I'm getting between 20 and 50kbps downloading the WoW trial. Yes, your thread made me rethink my stance on MMO aswell. Damn Irish! :roll:

World of Warcraft - Had a STRONG addiction to it last last year. Subscription ended so I had to stop playing. Very fun game, especially if you find yourself a great guild like I did.

Guild Wars - I never played it, but I heard it is a very fun game.

Lineage 2 - One of the best MMOs ever made. Very realistic and will require a good PC to run.

Some good, FREE, MMOs:

Rappelz - Made by gPotato; should I say more? gPotato is awesome! Very nice game. People compare Rappelz to being the "free Lineage 2" The game is fairly difficult at the beginning because you fight higher level monsters most of it. I've got like 5 characters in the 20s but after that it got a bit boring. If you make a few characters and stick to 'em its a lot of fun.

Archlord - Ehhh, it works... but highly buggy

DOMO - Dream of Mirrors Online is a new game thats in beta from the guys who made Lost Chaos, which I hate. DOMO has a little anime/cartoonish style to it and uses cell shader technology for its shaders so it gets a nice cartoonish look. It is the same stuff used in dragon ball tenkaichi and Dragon Quest 8. I really like this game :)

Aion - Made by NCSoft, the guys who brought you Guild Wars, Lineage, and many other great titles. The game, I think, isn't free however, they are currently in pre-beta phase and if you get accepeted you'll play for free. The game looks AMAZING and is based on Crytek's CryENGINE which was used for Far Cry.


If you don't like any of these titles, then MMOs aren't really for you. Most MMORPGs are fantasy based in one way or another. If you like space ships and fighting check out gPotoato's Space Cowboy Online, or SCO. You are a pilot and you can control a little space ship and fight with baddies and other players.

Thats all I can think of from the top of my head. If I remember any more, I'll let you know :)

I got a free 1/2-week trial DVD of LOTRO a few months ago from the DigitalLife convention in NY. Played the trial for like an hour or two and deleted it right away. Such a waste of hard drive space in my opinion. The game isn't all that amazing or unique. Introduction is boring as hell. Not my game at all.

350KBps? That blows! I get like 1-1.5MB/s =)

AoC looks like a REALLY nice game. Make sure you sign up for the beta so you can try it out before buying the game when it comes out!

VR HMD Meta Quest 3
Software Windows 11 64-bit
I was thinking about trying the beta...but I want to wait for the real deal...the full glory when it comes out...would trying the beta ruin it for me???

sounds like you have a 24meg line...lucky :p I had a 1meg line last week...but have a 6meg line now...btw...6megs is the max where I live :(...but 350kbps is like 3x faster than my usual 127kbps...so I still find it pretty fast :p
