Thread: This Game is just a Glorifed Sim City

    This Game is just a Glorifed Sim City

    Okay, a few weeks ago I picked up my copy of NW just like eveyrone else and started playing. Oh this is gonna be really cool I thought. Well, I thought wrong. Everything about Notum Wars is false on what they would have you belive.

    Towers

    The Intent:

    A Way for you to have high level content involving Personal/Guildwide Advantages and Mass PvP Combat with the ability to Attack/Defend your base in a time of war

    The Reality:

    More like Simcity. You build it and Hope something doesnt come around, because when it does its a disaster that you can not defend against. The Tornado that sweeps your base will render you unable to move, sit, attack, or cast a nano. This Disaster will cause your computers network card to have a heart failure, and cause your video card to play at 1FPS. Nothing like this has ever been seen before. But O yes my friend, there is more. When you finally manage to chop away from the battle, it will kick you back into the fray, only you can never get out...its a neverending labryinth of doom. If and when you do get out all you will see when you sit down is an Army of invisible attackers shooting you from 10 miles away until you die. There is absolutely nothing to do at this point but watch the screen become stained with the blood of your character as you pray for an end to this nightmare. Finally, Changing Area: Please Wait...You can return to leveling and enjoying the game. But no This disaster causes all guild leaders to order you back into the fight. No Not that Anything but that.....but you have to go for you phear them kicking you from the gulid for lack of participation. Dont wanna lose your benefits and all. This is a neverending Hell! Dont get involved ....because once you go in....you can never EVER come out.


    Just my opinion anyway

    ps fix your gameFC

    It's fun!

    - Every level a player gets past 150, they will be punished with less and less people they can kill
    - Make pure PvP server. 25% suppression in major cities, 5% everywhere else. And no level restrictions.

    Actually I would equate it to wrapping your buttcheeks around a twenty foot long razorblade and sliding into a pool of Iodine, where a hill of red ants await to feed on your honey covered genitalia. Or is it more like clamping jumper cables attached to a tractor battery onto your nipples and diving headfirst into saltwater?

    hey Wind dont forget the pure joy of getting sent to reclaim only to find u have a way too long root on yourself cause your lagged out body never dropped when u were killed and people were still whackin away at ya.
    Add the happiness of realizing all your root break items are just out of reach at the reclaim terminal and u have a party

    NW remember me of the first month of AO- gameplay
    Terrible Lag
    Warp effects never seen befor
    Zoning with a 50 % chance to arrive
    Lost control over char keyboard or mouse

    this besides a missconcept with the Level-limits and the so called crowdcontrol let me think:
    2 steps > 4 steps <

    Tonight I was at a few battles with less people than normal (about 20 each side) and i could actually cast. In reality there is only 1 way to get rid of CC, thats for our lords and saviors at funcom to get us on a better server. W/O CC we cant cast or anything, would be 10x more lagged and alot more zone crashes....with CC we cant defend our towers and get close enough to the towers we trying to attack.

    I hear ya wind bro, not easy being melee in a game suddenly bent on the edge of being ranged.

    -clicks down button waits for elevator-
    -Gets in with the other melee personel of Rubi-ka-
    -selects basement level-
    -as the elevator goes down, glances over at the other elevator going up with the NTs and fixers inside-

    Enjoy RK guys, your turn to be on top.

    Thumbs up

    Notum Wars is not a failure. I think it was a great accomplishment for FC. They made one mistake however, they underestimated the impact it would have on their servers. If they can fix the lag, then i have no complaints.
