Anyone know of any alternatives to planeshift?

This game actually sounds really intrested. While I'm probably not going to devote any real time to it (since its not on mac and I rarely have access to a windows computer as well as my current obsession with ps  ) I'll try and check it out. It sounds intresting and the fact that there are rpers makes it sound much better.

Although people from PS went there, its not rp... No one really role plays... the game is more pvp based.

Nothing stops you from RPing there. Actually I think it would be a better environment for RP, in that there is an equivalent to the Chat tab... the thing that the PS devs removed for some crazy reason. Removal of the Chat tab last year was, IMHO, a major blow to RP. If you ever try to RP in the arena, each sentence will be interrupted by 5 to 10 lines of "so and so changed to offensive stance" or "the rogue is nearly dead." (I have complained about that before, but it was always deleted immediately by Karyuu). Anyway, I agree that RP would actually be more difficult in Regnum, for the simple fact that there is so much more to do, particularly fighting in large battles in the war zone.

I think it would be interesting for someone to start a clan in Regnum of people from Planeshift.

Peacer (angelwinged Devil) and valorius rageway both have clans in syrtis...

However along with their friends from PS they brought over, many of the natives from RO also joined.


And yes i've RPed in RO, but theres not really a role playing community typically its just by yourself...


If you like PVP games or better yet RvR games, RO is for you. But if you prefer something less intense, more writter baised. I say PS.


I play both, because my moods change depending on how I feel.

Mehgan, take down some syrtis for me, i'll be back shortly. If you see AwD or valorius, sick your zarkit on them.

You know you can modify your chat window, right?

The combat messages can be reduced to a minimum, where most of it just gets filtered, and the overall system-chat can be banished from the main-tab and moved to the ... *drumroll* ... system-tab

WoW?

regnum rocks XD

regnum rocks XD

if you are more a slayer of monsters and a solver of stupid quests "kill 5 bees" or so then of course you like that game
but i research better quests and gameplay xD but yes the graphisms are excellent even if WoW's like

[Kiirani]

I'd love if regnum had more interesting quests, although the "kill 5 bees" ones are nice in that they encourage training (which I suck at self motivating at). I'd like a game that had both those and more epic puzzle quests (that involved ACTUAL SOLVING). Oh well, I enjoy the warzone.

Aloha from the darkness.



For who didn't know, RF Online (a really interesting MMORPG I must say) is now free to download/free to play, without monthly fees.

Now, until the ways of the Black Order shall twist your wicked minds again, this game is a nice try.

Cheers future minions!

ahem, drahlian/meghan, im sure you're aware of Pizi's comic? I think it speaks for itself concerning regnum.

There actually is not graphical alt for PS. All other 3D games are wortheless mobkilling game with charakter named like " \../ satanic_babe 666". Planeshift is the only one interesting and unique one

Yes, I was a long time player of runescape, and it does not compare to PS , ok PS (as all know) is not finished and its "buggy" but well graphics... and PS is much more realistic anyway it may be heavy to do some crafting but it does in a realistic way, in runescape you got some ores and u can make lots of refined metals in less than 5 minutes, but in PS no, you work in the role of the medieval crafter. In my point of view you need to have more skills to play it, ah and There is No map, so its easy to get lost the way wich for me is confusing and realistic at same ways.... And names well just  as Ice_stovo sain, no other game is at the level of PS

As a man who spend years seeking for a good RP-oriented MMORPG (a calambur, i know, but that's nowdays reality that the word "MMORPG" is not what it used to be even at the early UO), i must say that there's absolutely no alternatives to PS. It's not perfect, of course, not at all (  some RP UO shards has the full implementation of user-driven economy, that damn housing, and so on therefore lacking something more. A setting maybe and online too), but it is the best indeed. Someday we'll have it all. Or at least our children will
