Midway's had one in development talks for awhile ... Anyways the animation of the grapple hook an dragging someone isn't new or innovative . that was the point Tongue .

Don't get me wrong, Cil, I'm not at all saying that it's bad or boring, or even that it's a copy of something else. What I am saying is that the style of the design isn't ground-breaking. The grappling hook thing is nice, though I question its playability due to data transfer issues (aka Lag), and as far as holding one's own against a mob of players, well.. We will be seeing a nerf to that, as with all MMOs that have tried that in the past.

The animations are refreshing, as are the styles that are given. And I'm not trying to down on you and your enthusiasm at all. Just that realistically speaking, the only thing that's going to be new in an MMO is a complete and utter deviation from push-button playing style.

I used to do that a lot during PvP in Galaxies Cill.... It's not that hard... Just takes mad skilz



Or taking on crappy players *cough*cillquin*cough*




Or just plain old luck, and apparently I had an abundance of that o.o

Get Guild Wars Factions. It is usually a ton of bad guys vs you, and then you die. It's great fun. :mep:

My interest is going to be completely contingent on PvP. SWG's system was horrible. WoW's arena system is horrible. Planetside had it right. DoAC had it right. While I haven't tried it, EvE sounds about right. If full time PvP isn't the destination, I'm not interested in the ride.

Stuff like that already exist in certain MMO's out there as it is, the fightstyle they have presented with the video up there certainly is implented in the new perfect world mmo that is going into beta in some months or the likes. it looks better as well.
