Spring RTS Engine

MMO sub genre's can be fun thou. Planetside is a blast.

I will thou not EVER play for a game monthly to play it. Unless it's like, 1 dollar a month. But otherwise, nuh uh.

I tried Planetside, and I loved it, but then I realized I was just raiding and defending the same bases again, progress was not possible, and it was sucking my life away. I uninstalled it and I've been 100% clean of any MMOs since.

Personally, I am deathly afraid of MMOs. I know, if i ever play one, and actually like it, you will NEVER, EVER be able to get me off the computer. EVER. Thats just the type of person I am.

Please, never tempt me with MMOs, I am truly afraid of them.

I learned my lesson with CCGs and knew to stay away from MMOs, but City of Villains/Heroes is very tempting... it's a good think I'm poor and have very littole tinme for gaming

Don't do it guy's

My history of addiction;

Ultima Online - My first, despite the simple graphics unforgettable.
Asherons Call
Neocron
Dark Age Of Camelot
Face of Mankind - The MMORTS I was a GM in.

There is only one MMO that would make me signe up, and it would have to have zombies.

Lots and lots of zombies.

See, the internet has everything....

Personally mmo's aren't for me. I like to think in my games and not just mash 'attack' between chatting.
(yeah I know that's an oversimplification but compared to somethign like spring it's true.)[/url]

Urbandead is actually quite cute, if not exactly fun to play. It's a pain in the ass to try and develop as a human.

That and MMOs fail to give the player that sense of epic accomplishment, i mean really, how often when you play an MMO do you feel like the ultimate fantasy UBER hero who owns all with just a swing of ur sword or topple whole armies with a bow and quiver of arrows that seemingly never ends. For me MMOs just fail completely and utterly in that respect.

Well, I'm not especially big on the "Godlike" feel. I like interaction above all, for me it is the nuances of character and the details that only a human can bring to the table that satisfy me.

Thats why I don't like them. Look at WoW for gods sake, If you go on PvP servers you can get pwnt by level 60's when You are like level 10.

Oblvion is a good rpg though. I've got such magical armour that everything ust bounces off me.
