Many agree but you should post on their forums to suggest them or email them a complaint. Maybe then they will add that in.

And just because I play WoW because I like the WASD controls doesnt give you the right to generalize and call me a moron because my personal preference is pointing more towards MMORPGs with WASD controls.

You can say all you want but AnimeminA seems to be the only one that is right here.

its all a matter of preference.

You however are just blasting your guns at everybody who prefers WASD movements. We already know what your personal preference is and your opinion is not the only one the thread starter wants to know about. If it was he would have directed this whole thread towards you. Mr know it all - oh so mighty defender of the point and click system.

And you still need to read slower. You are amusing. You really need to learn to comprehend what one is saying, than just reading it.

Aslo, why use WASD, its like having a basic Nintendo Etertainment Sytem controller in your hands(the first Nintendo). Its funny, technology jumps you ahead from typical console games where 4 directional controllers, to mouse, to analog controller, and to motion sensitive controls( Wii and PS3), but you still want to play 4 directional controll set-up( NES controller).

Dude I can read and I can write. I'm not the kind of guy who would say that WASD is better than Point and Click in PVP or in gaming in general and vice versa. I am however a guy who would rather play a WASD controlled MMORPG over a Point and Click one and there are many picky people like me all over the world.

And since when did half life become Counterstrike? I know both are related but are not the same game at all. So no man you're the one who needs the tissue because Half life is not Counterstrike. And FYI the original half life mod which we all know as Counterstrike or CS was released on June 19, 1999.

I am first Korean and second US citizen. I was born there, but moved here.

Yes, I amy be a 31 yo gamer but, hate to tell you this. Without our demands during our younger years, you would not be playing WoW right now. Or even have a XBox 360.....think....

But then again without Benjamin Franklin and all the guys who developed a way to produce Electricity you guys wouldnt have had the chance to demand during your younger years and we would all still be using candles until now. And let's not forget the first guy who discovered fire and the guy who first thought of developing the Internet. Think.

Im kidding man. Peace.

Thats not insane. Insane would be this..... Fact: Wal-Mart makes 10 million dollars in 5 minutes.

Thats insane, but true.

255.5 million is small. Its only 4.26% of the world population.

The way I see it, WoW and Guild Wars are games that are perfect in the way you controll them. Controlling your character with the WASD combo, and moving the camera with the mouse. I think this is one of the reasons why these two games are some of the most popular games in the west.

I think all these foregin MMO developers need to understand that people in generel don't wanna spent stupid amounts of hours grinding or doing repetitive stuff if the controls, camera and interface is not good. I mean, it's not just Rappelz, but almost every god forsaken oriental MMO I have played. Silkroad too!
These reasons alone are actually why I prefere something like FlyFF and Maple Story, to other free MMOs, because the fundamentals work.

Anyone else agree?
I heard someone saying that it has something to do with alot of Koreans being crazy addicted to RTS games in the 90s, so they just sort of used the mouse more than anything else, where in the west we always used the keyboard for the action games we played!?

I dunno... I'll admit that it's shallow to dismiss a game just because of the controls but I simply can't play a game like that, where you have to click on the ground just to go there. It goes against the concept of "Playing and controlling" a character IMO!

I totally agree, Im so bored of the point and click games, it limits the gameplay, and type of quest ect. you can do in the game. Its the same thing for everything; click to move, click to fight, and the quest are always the same click on npc to talk to them, click to walk over to another one, click to talk to him, then click to come back again. When they are fighting quests, its just clicking to kill the monsters. It to repeative, I know that in game not all you do is click click click, but that is mainly all you do, and the mobs of monsters are soo lame aswell now a days.

I want a game that every monster can be captured, and used as you pet to fight or even loot, pets that can even let you ride on them. Then for movement and attack let the mouse click make you attack, and the keyboard let you move jump so its real time fighting like in FPS. That's why people like FPS, its because you're more in the game, wouldn't you think to take that idea and bring it into MMORPG's it is the best types of games when you think about how much money they make, and how many people play these types of game. I love RYL2, and MapleStory, and even Survival Project. Maple Story got boring because lack of variety in monsters, and skills. RYL 2 never really got boring for a long time till I got to the highest level and stoped PVPing. And Survival Project is one game I'll never stop going back to because its WASD controls, it has PVP, it has PVE, and it even has minigames so you are not doing the same thing oer again. I love Soccer, and dodgeball, hockey and Races, I loved Symbol, and Survival, and ect. one of the best games on the net for everyone in my oppion.

But seriously, the game world today really needs to change, most gamers today are very experienced, and well the same old thing isn't going to cut it anymore, we need something new, something that put us into the game even more for an unique experience, like how Nintendo is using motion sensitive controlers, and how they changed Soccer gaming experiences forever with Mario Super Strikers- my favoute soccer game every since I first tried it at Best Buy. Im just saying, we need to be more into the game that we play.

unless they can somehow combine the network system of an open world map system of a typical mmorpg and jumping into a battle scene where its a different type of network system where; for example the leader, suddenly become the host of the battle scene for the party, and back to the open world map while keeping bandwidth cost low and as efficent as possible, than they will consider it.

the cost of more precise control of your character equal more bandwidth cost and maintainence cost. its not something many company will invest it unless they know they can profit from it.

I do remember Tecmo was attempting to release a "Virtua Fighter" type of MMO Action RPG, but that was about 3 years ago when they announced it. They said it would play like a MMO but the action was like a fighter arcade. Shame it never came out.
