    Default WoW orrr.. Allods

    Hey guys, I've been a WoW player for a long while and I've recently taken a break and thinking of hopping back into it. However, I've been looking at this Allods online and it really interests me :P Just wondering if anyone in the CBT could give me some first impressions and whatnot, hopefully someone who has played both.. if it's worth waiting for since I think it'll be out in a few days(?) then I won't sub to WoW, otherwise I'll sub right back in.

    Also, does anyone know how the item mall is going to work? Will it have insta-win cash shop or is it just for looks?

    Please no fighting over WoW>Allods or Allods>WoW please, this isn't for that.

    Allods = free

    Try Allods. If you like it, cancel your WoW subscription. If you don't, keep WoW.

    imo the intro/tutorial was great, it looked great, only downside to
    it for me was that it wasn't as fast as I would have wanted it to be.
    Try it if you can.

    I was going to do that but Allods is out in a few days and if I sub to WoW but like Allods I'll waste a payment.

    Play WoW until Allods OBT orr just be bored until Allods OBT coz CBT's are boring and don't give a true experience as the full release... :S

    I don't think a fair comparison can be made at this moment. id suggest sticking to wow for another month and testing allods out when its more setup. then make a decision.

    the game isn't and won't be CS dependent, so it's not pay to win, alot of people are saying combat is slow, but it's only slow in early levels, and ofc they just logon, play for 5 minutes and start spamming the forums about how slow combat is... the game is very good for CBT, but wait untill it's out or atleast OB

    This is true. I would rather people buy gold legally and safely than some gold farmers. Trust me, people DO buy gold from goldsellers on WoW, back in BC a few of my friends and by few I mean most of my friends bought the 5k needed for epic flying, I farmed primals for mine. Took a long time, and I hated how they cheated.

    To be honest people can buy their way to the top in WoW, especially in Wotlk. Since there are craftable ilvl 245+ gear whats stopping some guy from buying like 20k gold and getting by with no work at all compared to what others had to do for it? Not that raiding is hard in Wotlk, but if anyone dare say WoW don't got a cash shop, they are wrong.

    Character recustomization, server transfer, faction change, race change and name change.
    I'd hardly call that a cash shop.

    edit: to state my opinion on wether to go with allods or wow... try out allods. It's free so you didn't lose much if you tried it.

    I should update this but all my effort went into writing this lousy excuse.

    Well, basically - I played the russian version of Allods, the English AND the European one.
    And I just started WoW again.
    All these new things on WoW are amazing.
    You get EXP from PvP.
    The new Dungeon Finder tool that comes when you press "i", is amazing - very fast lvling and gold.
    And therefore it's easier to lvl a new character to 80, which I always wanted to, but never wanted to grind quests for.

    this was soo off topic ...
    On Topic: Is there even such question ??? OFC WoW by all means ... if you don't mind paying for it ... atleast until Allods gets better but that will take alot of time ...
    Some Stories Are Just Way Better In My Head!
