Starwars galaxies Vs planeshift - Fight!

[ya old fraggle]

In you opinion is planeshift as good as starwars galaxies?

i dont know as i havent played planeshift yet!

[Moogie]

In a realistic opinion, of course PS isn\'t as good as SWG. PlaneShift is in pre-alpha stages of development.

You can only argue something like this when both games are at the same stage of completion- something I think will never happen, as PS will never be \'complete\'.

[ajdaha]

I think PS will have some sort of a \"Definitive\" update.
So that when they release it they shall say,\" here is the full game, at last\". Thats not to say there will not be any more updates, just that the game shall at that stage be what the developers where aiming for from the start of it all.

They can\'t just keep the game as a pile of updates,
........Can they? 8o

[ya old fraggle]

what i meant was is it as good in regards of complexity?

[Axsyrus]

Planeshift isn\'t very complex right now, just running around, chatting, collecting crystals and talking to NPC\'s

as the great Jedi master would have put it...

\"It will be, oh, it will be.\"

I have heard that SW:G sux big time. but still it\'s a little hard to compare since SW:G is almost finished (if not finished) while PS will be in v0.3 at the end of this year. So even if I find Planeshift more intresting than SW:G I still would have to agree that SW:G is better game becouse it is done.

[Nartago]

I play SWG all the time, PlaneShift in no way compares to SWG at the moment... but planeshift is just early in development, SWG is a finished game. I still get on PlaneShift though, and it has great potential .

[Bigfoot]

SWG is the largest pile of excrement on the planet, PS as it is NOW is better than SWG imho. SWG needs to have a swift and humane mercy killing... just look at the fact they locked access to the SWG Forums to SWG subscribers only... guess they didnt want prospective customers comeing and seeing all the rants raves and complaints about the game before they bought it.

[Aramys]

Sw:G is ok but PS will probably surpass it once more is added to the game. Especially with all the play input rather then just assuming what people want.

for some reason i find that planeshift is already better than star wars galaxies. Already galaxies has turned out to be a stinker. People hate the idea of so much realism that you have to walk for 3 hours to get to another city. People hate that the devs on that team decided to release a game as a full game and sell it when there were important things missing. and the price! what a load  of bullhonkey! Money currupts everything! if you watch colege of high school foot ball you notice it is more fun to watch than the NFL! Why? because high school and college foot ball isnt corrupted by money! Free things always have better spirit and atmosphere (like planeshift) please planeshift devs, i know the allure of money is great but look at the games before you that have made that mistake (eq, rooonscape, and now starwars galaxies) Keep it free baby! thats all I have to say  

[Harwen]

You know whemyfield? You are so right. Take a look at the XFL, that was supposed to be a \'hardcore\' NFL, but it was hypocritical as the NBA. I love collage football, it is so exciting.

Lets not forget the ever legendary corruption of Everquest!

\"Once upon a time, there were a few guys who liked playing video games, namley roleplaying games.

One day, they pulled together a dream for an Rpg that you can play with other people from across the globe. They dreamt of a world where dragons and magic thrived, and the world grew.

They began programming, modeling, drafting....they would give the world another universe in which to live in...they would be gods, the Devs...

Then another day one of them, being exceptionally adept at basic mathematics, computed a few figures and came up with a lot of zeros.

He showed these figures to his buddies, and they agreed to finish the project as fast as possible so they could charge people $10-18 a month for mediocre gameplay, a dull background, repetivive quests, and hardly rewarding graphics and animation...so they could rake in $40,000,000+ a year, depending on their circumstances. And this is the story of the MMORPG....it continues with the CONSOLES, when Final Fantasy 11 makes it\'s debut as the biggest money-hogging scam this side of Role Playing, with an estimated revenue of $88,000,000+ not including mandatory and expensive updates.

Then there was Planeshift....it came out of the shadows, shouting a simple cry....\"free imagination\"...\"open-source\"...

And out of these shadows, rose the future...justice

[Mezasa]

That is pure genious! I hate being charged for online games. Heck, I don\'t play the ones you have to pay for simply because if I didn\'t play it a lot one month I would be pissed and quit my subscription for being charged for nothing.

[Zeonire]

I have galaxies... it is sooo much better than this. But then again, this is only in prealpha and I\'m pretty into it. Come CB, galaxies will have mombo competition, pal.

You don\'t have to say it at all, as it is said enough to last a few lifetimes, and mostly it is said like \"Well Palnesheeft0rz be fwee forewer cuz i donts likes r00jnscrape for havin dem pay servs. st00ped,\" and it gets really dull to keep telling people \"yes, it will\", \"yes it will\" and \"YES IT WILL!\"... I should complain to the devs and ask if any sentence containing \"planeshift\" & \"free\", could be automatically replaced with \"Yes - Free - Always\"...
