I just bought the game and expansion today and wanted to know if anyone plays this or any other P2P MMORPGs?
I played EverQrap for a while until I realized it, and all other MMORPGs to date sucked. The least-sucky MMORPG to date is UO. A good MMO game would be A Tale in the Desert. It's in beta 3. It's fun.

The same reason you're going to quit DAoC?

I used to play UO, but when I get some more money, if not today I will be going out to purchase DAoC.

I have had it in my wanted list that is in my mind at the moment and right now it is at the top of my list.

So, I will tell ya when I purchase it.

The least-sucky MMORPG to date is UO.

I bought this but I never paid more than a month since most of what I did was either chop lumber for hours on end trying to scrap together some cash to do something with or mine to slowly get money. But I'd definantly have to say I spent more time doing that than hacking rats and bats in Everquest.

A good MMO game would be A Tale in the Desert. It's in beta 3. It's fun.

Unfortunantly it's finals week for me so I won't be able to check it out till friday :P.

I don't know anything about Tale in the Desert, but of the ones I've tried, DAoC is definitely the game to go with, in terms of being the best of the current state of MMORPGs. It has an actual quest system that works, it has actual interesting choices for meleers to make during combat, it has interesting and differentiated races for you to play (as does EQ, but Asheron's Call really sucked on this level), it has a beautiful world, and it is the only one out there that does PvP right, by making it Realm vs. Realm, and making it so you can't attack people from your own realm. Plus your realm gets benefits from taking land, so you are motivated to work together to fight against the other realms.

To top it all off, the development team is excellent, communicates honestly, and fixes things quickly (unlike EQ, at least in my day). If you don't think this matters in an MMORPG, you probably haven't played one yet.

The downside, on the standard servers, is that you can't communicate with players in other realms, which can make it hard to hook up with friends unless you are all part of the same realm.

you play DAoC?...if you still do what server and realm do you play on? unless its the co-op server
I play asherons call 2 which is way better graphics then them all, way better combat system (other then if you turn to the left or right it cuts you out of an attack move which is stupid), AC2 is pretty good but I don't get really into it like my friend does, I played DAOC and I think it's a piece of crap... It's a good game but it's got some huge limitations that make it one of the worst.
like Everquest, you spend more time getting to a lvl that's fun then anything else.

I remember spending 12 hours on DAOC just trying ot lvl and not get anything to show for it except dieing 2 or 3 times and puting me back a few hours, oh and maybe some gold but for magic items there was barely any when I played. Not to mention the party system sucked ass, the combat system was basically mechanical...

Although I haven't tried the expansion...

UO is definately the best game, ok maybe not on normal servers... which is why you play on Siege perilous because there's a bug where you can get GM (max skills) in a few days...

just get your skills to 70 and then run across a server boundry and get .1 every time.

then just have fun taming dragons, growing plants, and such, and having fun.

Lack of skills?
In response to Geo
no, because ea ruined it.
In response to Jon Snow
and what makes asherons call 2 different?
In response to FuZzY DiCe
The packaging of the game was too complicated for you to open?
In response to OneFishDown
unfortunately that makes no sense...just you trying to start another fight with me
In response to FuZzY DiCe
I'm not surprised you can't understand it. I don't see why you insist upon talking about computer/video games on here, all you do is force your opinions on people, or make hyocritical or dumb comments.
In response to OneFishDown
i play the game and yet i cant open the box? and im not forcing anything on anyone unless im actually getting through to you and its such a hastle for you to keep your own oppinions....no you just constantly have to disagree with me
In response to FuZzY DiCe
I disagree with you because your opinions are almost always worth nothing. You constantly change sides in an argument, and you rarely have any reasons for what you say. Also, you tend to jump to conclusions way too fast on the forums, so I would assume that you are quick to judge a game.

unless im actually getting through to you

Well, you try to force your opinions, but your lack of communication skills usually prohibits that. I think I'll stop replying until you show some signs of logical thinking.

i dont think always means saying something about halo... and dont reply :)
