It's certainly miles ahead of DDO, unlike your claim.  Unless you REALLY fucking love walking through the same exact sewer for 25+% of your life....


at what point did you read me compare gw2 graphics to ddo?  theres no debate gw2 graphics are better than ddo's, ddo is ancient now...when ddo came out i was playing gw1.

Did you catch the title of the thread? That might be where people think you meant that the graphics were worse than DDO.

If a game released in 2012 doesn't have better graphics than one from 2006, there would be a serious problem.  I would expect an order of magnitude increase in graphics and game engine.  If those aren't clear wins for the 6 years newer game, then something is wrong.

DDO's graphics engine isn't the same one it released with in MMO.  WoW has been able to keep their graphics fairly close to modern games throughout it's life cycle.

Did you catch the title of the sub forum 'other games'?  go suck asuran dick there.

That said gw2 would certainly be a nice change of pace to DDO, if you don't mind flimsy security for your purchase.

i was a big fan of purchase and play for free when gw first came out, revolutionized mmo's and i never subscribed to anything post gw.  sure you'll have to buy xpacs, but even subscription games require that.

a fuck of a lot better than other f2p games, most which are pay to win...just look at gpotatos crap.

I thought I covered the whole part about they can't account for you stupidly using the same password at different places.

No, but it's much more difficult to re-architect an in-production game with a newer core than to build one from scratch using the cutting edge.  Invariably you run into legacy coding and compatibility issues.

fact is, gw had a real issue with hacked accounts, and gw2 is a similar problem.  im pretty sure when my wifes acc was hacked it was from the guild website being compromised since she never went to any site aside from guild forums and official site.

The second article dumbass

The accounts of an estimated 11,000 Guild Wars 2 players have been hacked - and developer ArenaNet says they only have themselves to blame for not using unique usernames and passwords.

DDO accounts don't get hacked because no one really cares enough to hack DDO accounts. 11000 accounts seems about the right number for people using "password1".

The issue with Gw2 accounts getting hacked was indeed that people were using the same account name and passwords from other games. It wasn't an issue with their security. It was that *other* accounts had been hacked and the hackers were trying those names and passwords with Gw2.
Guess what? Some of them worked. So yes, it was their own fucking fault.

Fun is what it's all about.  I'll pay 3-4 times that price for a game that is enjoyable.

If I wasn't enjoying DDO, I'd give GW2 a look. 


I don't know people can enjoy the rotting carcass that is ddo.  I used to hate the devs and loved the game with such a fiery passion.... Now I could care less that I have an account.

WoW has a lot of great things, I hope they make a SC mmo one day.  I will play it until the zerg take over the world.

Of course it does.  There are no bugs in GW2.  Turbine has a monopoly on crappy developers and buggy code.  Everything works in GW2.  Didn't you read the Orig Post?  It was on the list of things that are better in GW2 than DDO.  You can even trade stuff using the trading post....oh...wait.  Nevermind.   Grin
