    Default Bored

    I'm getting bored of WoW. Been thinking about picking up either BF 2142 or maybe going old school and getting Fallout 2.

    Any other suggestions?

    If you are into racing, check out GT Legends. I play with a Momo wheelset, and it's killer.

    Sick of WoW? How is that possible?

    Quite simple really. I'm working on my 4th L60. Played a bit in the Outlands, and didn't really care for it. Maybe it will be different on my hunter--ez mode ftw.

    unless your really into the whole walker robot future thing then dont bother with bf2142. it is basically a really well done mod that cost 60$ there are better free mods out there that will give you what your looking for.

    Thats why they give you a month free with every purchase and/or the free 10 day trial period. They know that you'll be hooked very quickly and even though its against your better judgment at first, you'll end up thinking of ways to justify the monthly fee. This is what convinced me...

    Well, they charge you because they have an active support and development team and since no one works for free, how else are they going to pay them?

    WoW is the devil.
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    That's what I've read. But here's the catch--I don't own any of the BF series.

    Honestly, I could reinstall Doom 3 on this machine--but I was quite disappointed. Felt like I was playing a juiced up Half Life.

    Not that there is anything wrong with a juiced up Half Life...

    I TOTALY disagree.
    As many of you know I was a complete bf2142 skeptic.....before I bought the game.

    This realy *isn't* just a mod. It uses the same principals as bf2 and has the same structure, but thats because it's a sequal. The game is FAR more efficient than bf2, the load times are literaly five times faster, the game is waaaaaaaaaay more stable than bf2. The gameplay is smoother, there is far less cheating, the unlocks and rank system are more rewarding, and the game is much easier for beginners than bf2 ever was.

    I am a modder myself; a texture artist currently working on Northern Conflicts. I can absolutely guarantee that you will not find a mod anywhere near the level of bf2142.

    If you like FPS online games, 2142 is one of the best on the market right now.

    CS:S has an active dev team bringing out free updates, content, skins, etc. and they do not charge per month. The typical reply to this is "But WoW have to pay for and maintain their own servers!" - This argument would be valid if they charged a price proportionate to the amount needed to maintain their servers.
    Personaly, I'd rather play tetris.

    CS I believe is putting ads into the game so... I know nothing of CS besides that little tid bit. How much is WoW charging, EverQuest was at like $14 a month when I left (started in 1999 ended in mid 2004, you do the math on that one). 2142 rocks, I've been playing it since it came out and its is amazing. It definately has the feel of BF2 but its so much better. It's also a lot easier to get used to than BF2. Back onto games to try, if you like (and havent tried) Oblivion is great, don't know what everyone else thinks of it but I love it still after how ever long its been out.

    Good luck finding a good title for ya.
