L2 and CSS

[n00bt3sting]

The current games I am playing while I wait for Huxley are Lineage 2 and Counter-Strike:Source.

Lineage 2 is my mmo fix and I have been playing it on and off for the past 2 years since it went live.

Couter-Srike:Source is my fps fix that I have been playing since December 2004

Anyone else play either of these two or maybe both like me?

Enemy, promise me you wont ever play Lineage 2. Lineage 2 is like that awesome girl you remember from highschool, shes fun, great to look at, hard to stop thinking about, and she would be the best long term girlfriend material...if only she would stop #$#^ing everyone you know. Lineage is an awesome, wonderful game, in the beginings of death throes, because literally 45%+ are botting accounts, and 30% more are farming 24/7 to sell things on ebay. That leaves 25% of the game's occupants as real players. You may love it, but it steals away about a year+ of your life before you finally realize its a waste of time....and if you think you know about grinding to level, I assure you, you are mistaked until you have a lvl 65+ character on L2. I have played many games in my life, but spending an hour and a half trying to get the bots who have been in the room for a month to die, then playing 8 hours for 10% of a level, and then getting attacked by a bot protecter named ll121342ll4gg (losing 4% of your earned xp), and being called "American pig dog" as he/she smites you for ungodly damage, and you fall to the floor thinking "I am going to save money for an airline ticket to Korea, look for ll121342ll4gg, and break his kids toys". Great concept, but to NCsoft...their customers are "pig dogs".

That was very well put, and my question to you is do you currently play a mmo and if so what are you playing? I have tried others but don't get the same amount of satisfaction from lvling and getting stuff as I do with L2. But maybe I have missed something in one of the mmo's out there.

You know, I have tried quite a few, but I suppose Ive spent more time on Lineage 2 and Ultima Online...If you can get started on that game, with a good group of people, its really quite fun...not overly complicated, but it still takes alot of work to be good. It looks horrible, I know.....but I guess its like Crystalis, or some of the old NES games, they just had great gameplay...UO is OLD though, its definately a classic, but plenty of people still play, I play/played Atlantic server, so if for some reason you start to play, dear god let me know, because you will get sick of it without guidance, you can literally run around in the woods for a long while without finding a town or city. Anyway, thats the only game Ive played as much as L2. Ive played:

WoW= Nice idea, too many immature people and kinda got old quick for me, about 4 or 5 months after I started.

Guild Wars = Some of the most fun Ive had playing a game..played from beta till about four months after it went live...when it got old [ about 2 months after live], it got old HARD, the only reason I played as long as I did was because it was new, and it was fun exploring the world, and finding things noone had yet found, but like I said, it got REAL old REAL quick as soon as i had 3 characters at lvl cap.

EQ= (enjoyed it, stopped playing because my computer sucked, and never picked it back up, was about 3 months after I started)

Ive also played quite a few others, including Silk Road and Second Life (not really a mmorpg, but...hell, I dunno, its weird). If I missed some, please lemme know, Im always out for a new, good game. I never tried Neverwinter Nights, and I dabble on FFXI for the 360, which is fun if you know someone who plays, otherwise its kinda WTFish.
Lemme know if I missed some good ones. :P Have fun!
