  • party etiquette in F2P games is HORRIBLE. There is an increased number of emotional pre-pubescent gamers due to the game being free and not required $$ to actually purchase. I have learned to expect the worse and hope for the best
  • can regular mobs in non instanced free roam areas drop rare quality+ items? or even mobs in dungeuns/skirms for that matter?
  • I am that cleric! I even cast a divinitied HOT on you toO!
  • I am not looking for another f2p vs p2w War here...just stating my opinions and facts! My definition of Pay to Win (P2W) If a person gets a direct advantage over another person by spending real $$ it is 100% P2W. MMOs are competitions amongst others. Gamers are meant to play an avatar and make it increasingly…
  • I agree OP. These items are the cornerstone of all classic, successful MMOS. These features NEVER should have been monetized imo. Leave the monetization to cosmetic and/or vanity items only. Core game mechanics NEED to achieved via a REASONABLE time investment or in game currency that is EARNED not bought/converted. NW…
  • Well said Chai, I agree with 100%. I sincerely hope that I can find a new MMO that retains the core mechanisms that made the memorable MMO timesinks so...memorable :p. I feel like this p2w/p4convenience model truly hurts a game's development and is unsustainable to the genre. I am optimistic that someday there will be an…
  • Achieving goals and progressing your characters are traditionally meant to be earned via gametime investment. MMORPG's are timesinks. They were never meant to be profit vehicles for impatient players that choose not to earn their achievements like the majority. If you do not have the time, patience or skill to endure an…
  • I take issue with the defense of this seemingly daily maintenance/downtime by claiming that NW is in "OPEN BETA". That is a copout and could not be further from the truth. To be clear I am not complaining about anything here, just offering my opinions gathered with over 25 yrs gaming experience. "OPEN BETA" in today's MMO…
  • nice post! I'll add a few items that I feel must be implemented to make NW a better game... -Remove the "rooting" of players while using an insta-cast ability. -Change the "F" inspect player key -Allow players to interact with objects while in combat -Add more detail/specifics to the tooltips -Add BAGS that can be…
  • I am definitely going to play my cleric as more of a group mitigation/maintencance type healer. since we lack burst and oh <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> heals I think that having less of a CD on our spells will outperform a wisdom heavy build (pre endgame). I plan on maxing cha/recharge speed so I can use for…
  • context man. realistic in the sense that 99.9% of ammorpg's allow users to cast instant spells on the move. it's really just a small gripe but well within the constraints of the game.
  • I am all for a challenge--however gimping a core mechanic present in almost every action oriented mmorpg is kinda dumb imo. scaling mob HP/AI/dmg is easily remedied. not being able to insta-cast on the movie is unrealistic.
  • -let us scale the buff/debuff UI (makes maintaining hots easier) -fix the "rooting" of a character while attempting to cast an instant cast spell -implement a better stat value comparison tool when comparing potential gear upgrades -allow respecs from gold, earned currency, or daily quest/s -allow players to immediately…
  • please address the issue of being "rooted" when attempting an instant cast spell. this is an action oriented mmorpg--we should be mobile while casting insta casts at the very least.
  • NW has officially beaten out Diablo 3 in terms of paytowin exploitation. NW could have easily sustained itself as a F2P game with simple cosmetic/vanity cash shop items. They did not choose to go that route, however. This game is systematically designed with milking $$ out of the whole playerbase demographic. Not only…
