So, I got into the third round of beta testing for SoH. I thought it looked pretty cool and decided to give it a try (I have no interest in going back to WoW - even to play the Burning Crusade). Computer Gaming has been pretty boring lately and until HJ comes out I needed something to play...

Sweet, now we just need the game!!! :)

All, these forums are here to discuss issues, bring up new ideas and talk about the directions things are going. We should all be mature enough (regardless of our age) to behave appropriately towards each other. The remarks that I edited/deleted from this post should not have been made in the...

Being able to include user generated content. Maybe submit new lands or quests to the DM's for inclusion...

Well, in case someone gets back to answering these questions again, I have one on the overall game play: What if, for example, I don't want to do a lot of adventuring. What if I wanted to specialize in Sword making for example (or another craft)? And I wanted to get my skill in that very high...

Good question Kuzzle. But the real question is as frosty put it at the end. Different races and cities. WoW started off with a "Language" that you knew. I thought that would mean that you could learn new languages to interact with different races. It turns out that you can never talk to the...

I would like to see an "alpha" of it so that we could experience the engine and the landscapes and familarize ourselves with what there is of it. Otherwise, I agree completely with Kuzzle - I want information! Even if it is only small things. Maybe the lead dev's could start a blog or...

That seems to be the trend these days - in game advertising since those of us on this forum obviously spend more time in games than watching television. Advertisers have to try to reach us somehow... Sigh. I rather just have a game that I pay a fee for and that is immersive (i.e. I don't want to...

Enjoy the freedom, you won't have it again when HH is finally released :)

I'll continue to be excited about it until a better MMORPG is released. As I don't see that happening in the next few years, it's safe to say that I'll be excited until I get my hands on it. If it lives up to its' promise (and I've seen nothing to disuade me from that view) then I'll be excited...

I beta tested WoW both in the "Load Test" and "Open Test". I didn't make it in the closed beta. However, it was a blast because a) you knew the game better than people just starting, b) the DM's were always available when issues came up, c) the people most likely to abuse the game weren't there...

Yeah. I think we're all starting to go, when is Simu going to announce something. It's almost like they got all the hype going to early and it's dying down. On the other hand I've been looking for anything to play lately - I even considered going back to WoW but quite honestly, that game is...

I passed it on to a friend of mine. She seemed pretty interested. She never really played an on-line role playing game before. She is a hard core paper and dice player. Hopefully this will convert those holdouts!

I couldn't stand 40 man raiding in wow. First the performance was terrible, second it was difficult to get everyone to do the right thing. I'm for 5 man regular groups and 10 man raids. I think this is much more fun and lets you get to know the people on your team. Also, sometimes you have...

I think a big issue also (didn't see this in any previous posts I don't think) is that technology changes year to year. Because of this companies don't like to put out products with "old" technology. Therefore it makes it very difficult to develop software because you're trying to hit a moving...
