    Post So why do people ***** about P2P games?

    I kinda think they just dont have the money and their mommy won't buy it for them, or just they dont feel like paying 50$ for agame but meh its usually the first. Well anyways, people say warrock is better than BF2 when they havent even played it, or even bought it. When you buy a game you get your monies worth, It gives the developers/publishers a lot more resources to upgrade the game to get even better, thus most B2P , P2P games are 400%++ better than F2P games like craprock *warrock. Or flyff, Or uhh, any other boring grindy MMOFPS or MMORPG. Rant rabble rabble. Im just trying to say uh, Dont ***** about F2P games not being great, and not being updated constantly. /waste of meaningless forum space off. So yea. What I really mean that, warrock hasnt changed since beta, its a flop, it gets boring. I played it today and ran into 4 cheaters, and everyone else knew they were cheating.

    It's a constantly ongoing debate, and it's a surprisingly touchy subject.

    I don't really like paying monthly for my MMORPGs, but the content they offer is superior in my eyes. WoW has my undying support.

    Another reason because a lot of the times a certain game only requires a credit card and people dont have them, also some people just dont got the money, you got to remember not many people have a broadband connection :P

    Some people are also casual players. If you were a hardcore WoW player, who played 6 hours a day, you pay the monthly fee - roughly $15 odd dollars or so. If you're a casual player, you get maybe 6 hours a week, but you pay the same amount of money. I'm not talking about experience and rest experience here, I'm talking gameplay.

    For me, it's the hassle. WoW is the only P2P MMO I played, because it's the only game that offers the Game Card option in New Zealand. I can't get a credit card or a Pay Pal account etc.

    People whine about P2P MMO's because they want to play it, but they can't =P Obvious reason really. They're limited to the, usually lower quality, free ones. But hey, you get what you pay for, right?

    Meh... In my opinion I've seen so many p2p games and they've all sucked hardcore. WoW, graphics are terrible in my opinion. Only 1 of my buddies play it and I think it looked pretty bad. That bs about p2p bein better then f2p is way off the scale. The only good b2p game is Guild wars, one time payment is pretty dam good. I wouldn't waste 15-20 bucks a month on a game that gets old in a few days.

    I got just two two things to say to you, first watch ur language cause there are younger people on these forums as well. Your topic title may be offencsive to some viewers. Second is this is a free mmorpg section, this belongs in General section, if I was a mod I would delete this just because of your topic title. But I'm not so if anything mods if you do not delete this please have it moved to the right section of the forums. Thanks.

    To be honest, I dont mind paying for a game I have FUN with, but most P2P MMOs Iv played get old or the devs ruin them.

    Ragnarok Online - Awesome game, just to grindy for my tastes = Canned account.

    Star Wars Galaxies - Was GREAT for a long time, but the NGE ruined It = Canned account.

    World Of Warcraft - Fun game, was even It a great guild with one of my friends from town, but Its just to slow and grind related, got old = Canned account.

    Lineage II - I LOVE the look and feel of this game, Drow for the win ^_^...but to many farmers and PLers that screw with the new players = Canned acount.

    Matrix Online - BEST BATTLE SYSTEM EVER....other then that though the game Is blah = Canned account.

    Final Fantasy XI - Its FINAL FANTASY...what can I say, It rules, and though Its VERY grind centered If I had the cash to play It again I would without a second thought, simply because Its FUN, and the support Isnt to shabby either. Lack of Income = Canned account...twice....

    Iv played to many free ones to mention, but most of them are more fun then the pay to play ones (other then FFXI) mainly because.....you dont feel you HAVE to play them because your spending money on them. $15 may noy be a lot for you, but with my current 'monetary situation' I cant pay for any of them.

    Rather then sitting back on your massive bed 'o cash, why not open your eyes and look at things from other perspectives for a change.

    In Sweden, one dollar is *7. So, one dollar is 7 SEK. 12.95$/Month (That's the average cost of an MMORPG/month) is a heck load of money if you're planning to play that game for a very long time. That sucks.. =/

    people ***** about p2p games because they dont want to pay for a game every month. Example: people dont want to pay a monthly fee for FFXI(for 360) cus its 5 bucks a month for xbox live, and 12 bucks monthly fee for the game itself

    Proves that p2p games are not the best otherwise WoW would be claiming that it's best.

    People tend to be biased towards P2P games--simply because they cannot play it. There are gamecards nowadays but there is tax in addition to the card itself. Buying the game and game card at the same time can prove quite costly: $80-$90 in Canada. Others will not have access to a credit card to pay the monthly fee. I don't mind paying for games but I try to avoid them if I can--since most of my friends are not willing to pay, and it's a lot more fun playing with a bunch of people you know.

Why is that huh, cheapass
    Because WoW is played by everyone.....and I mean EVERYONE.... even 5 year olds....That's why they have a feature for parents to limit how much their children play WoW.

    Okay Boyo. For 1 you knwo that WoW has 9mil?
    You know how many GW has? Please enlighten me?
    I play P2P game too Dumb $3%@ So you can go flame sumwhere else.
    As Strong as WoW??!?!? What is strong about it? Selling so many copies in one day does not determine how godo the game is. The Hype lvl for WoW was so high becuase ****WARCRAFT**** went MMORPG. all those 10-40 yr olds intrigued with Warcraftin the old days comming back? Also no server can support 9million players... ((game server at once, not even 1mil or 2)) GW is an MMORPG. *bunch of people, on a server, interacting, quests, towns, equip, skills so on so forth* thats all ya really need to be a MMORPG. I dont feel like elaberating for your feeble little mind. Now go have fun playing your special WoW game. Oh I almost forgot. The ammount of games sold. Compared to the ammount of regular users. Which do you think a company is more interested in? Ty and good bye.

    well first of all, i never said there were 9 million on a server, 2nd of all on blizzards site it tells how many people play, and its 9 million people who currently play WoW on one realm or the other. Guild Wars doesn't have interacting, making partys????!! thats interacting. Go play a Free MMO you f**kin noob
