[QUOTE="Neo, post: 3405648, member: 4139"] UFO: Afterlight nice game little bad to be said about it beyond the annoyance i have personally about not being able to name my own team members STILL! CoH/CoV still enjoy this game, A new update coming that will add a crafting system and auction houses. And I really liked the idea behind the Veterans Reward program, I think that is a notion more MMORPG's should embrace as it encourages long term subscription above and beyond the norm. But this said it isnt all roses, the missions are fairly bland and incredibly repetitive, also some of the opponents just dont scream Hero genre to me, i'd much rather be facing more npc style super villains than you actually do, i'd also have loved for more environments, outer level, different dimensions, different time periods, lost pangeas etc... to embrace all the best of what Super Hero genres have to offer, and some more GLOBAL events that all playing can get involved in that thier actually are. Also i'd love to see more power sets, Hero style Masterminds (Longbow officer, Animal Controller, Summoners (spirits, demons, shadows or whatever), a power set to have a Sidekick as a pet would itself have been very cool kind of MM. Water Control powers would have been awesome and more selection in weapons (dual pistols for heroes for example), light based powers (i know the kheldian powers are kinda lightish but if you play villains you see some enemies using actual light based powers, i want those powersets to be available to us). Shapechangers (take on different forms, bear for tanking, cat for scrapping, bird for flying, fish for swimming etc...), Mimics (can replicate a targeted enemy or allies power for a short time at your own level of ability...giving you a super skrullesque type of toon). I'd also love to have seen more destructable environments, in a supers game i want to knock people through walls, or hit them with lamposts, drop buses on them etc... and you just cant :( WoW BC new races were great but the shine wore off pretty quick as most of the new content is solely for level 45's plus and as I only have an army of 30's im not likely to be seeing any of it any time soon. Tried Titan Quest too... personally I dont get the hype with this nice era, but it is essentially just a brainless mass of wave after wave of continuous pointless combat with a bunch of items you inevitably sell and nothing more... it is the worst of the ideas behind some games like Diablowith a new face.. a bit of a disappointment im afraid. I still hold out hopes for a decent ancient Greece/Rome/Egypt RPG type game. NeverWinter nights 2, played it but not a lot nowehere near as much as I did NWN 1, not so keen on the new perspective, camera control and it just hasnt grabbed me in being as open to roam where you will as you could in the first. I am however looking forward to the release of Lord of the Rings online.. im hoping it will be as good as the previews, reviews ive read seem to make it sound. I'm a huge tolkien fan so this an appeal was a given for me.
