Title: Diablo 3 > Season 3 FOnline2238?
Post by: Vic Holt on June 27, 2012, 08:03:55 pm
By a show of hands how many people bought Diablo 3 on release day?

hmm... okay...

Now, by a show of hands, how many people TO THIS DAY, continue to play Diablo 3 regularly?

Wooow, alright. So the question I ask you is:


Which game is worse?

Diablo 3 in its entirety?

OR

Fallout Online 2238 Season 6?


Diablo 3 offers about 20 hours of unique gameplay.
Fallout offers about 45 minutes of gameplay (if you logged in at the right moment).

Diablo 3 gets boring.
Fallout season 3 gets infuriating.


What are your comparisons?

Do you use mods to create your own vampire army from every NPC and infect whole Skyrim?

Its season 6 not 3. This game started in 2009.

No if I had a pc that could run skyrim you think I'd play fonline? 360. I have to get god mode the old fashioned way, exploiting alchemy/enchanting. I really miss custom spells.

Season 3 of 2238? What was that, the season before March '10 wipe? Don't exactly remember the numbers, but I loved that season.

Bought D3 before the release.

Gotta admit that playing FOnline: 2238 was extremely fun for a long time (sometimes, it still is!).
Diablo 3? After 40-60 hours of playing gets fucking boring. And without PvP? Rofl. D3 is a game at a fucking beta stage.

Diablo is only 1 & 2 (no expasion). 3 is so cartoon style web browser game. And best season of fonline for me is 3 for sure.

Season 3 was the one where everyone was running around looking for tubes and abusing science for materials, right? If so then that was my favorite too. I made close to 100k in the first week after the wipe just from crafting and selling ammo in NCR. Solo Enclave with a hunting rifle and SanFran with a 10mm smg. It was unbalanced then but it still is today, the only difference was that it was also alot of fun then.

my last post just want to say that in my eyes, diablo 3 isn't more serious game than the browser game i've posted.
the browser game was probably even more work. and what i´ve seen and heard about diablo 3, the browsergame have better gameplay.
thats why i suggest to play this one instead giving money to blizzard just cause they publish "a new half-baked mainstream gameplay title".
it was about sarcasm.

Minecraft started as a browser game and got better press than D3.... from a no name guy... so no I don't think that it should be considered blatant sarcasm to undermine the underdog...

Wow, that's quite entertaining!

But what makes diablo (1, 2, 3) enjoyable for many hours is the option to play hardcore mode (just like the realmofthemadgod :P).
Yes, it's a grinding game. Yes it's annoying to die because of lag. But it's challenging!

Post by: Matej on July 03, 2012, 05:01:06 pm
The classes in Diablo 3 are really niche and stupid.
Out of the five classes, three are magic classes, one is ranged but it may as well be a magic class, and the only 'normal' melee class is a barbarian, which is a niche class in itself.
I would much rather have preferred the stereotypical choices of knight, burglar, archer, etc.
The combat is just lights and spells flashing all over the screen, which is the plague of most new RPG/MMO games. I miss games with realistic weapons and hacking and slashing, instead of flashing lights.
They also tried too hard to make it super 'epic' to the point of cheesiness.
The auction house feature should never have been introduced to Diablo.
And to top it all off, the multilayer is done so poorly that it may as well have been a single player game, with internet connection only necessary for PvP.

you may be correctly, i simply never played diablo 3. i played a lot diablo 2 and loved the grinding factor. just noticed seems not that fun with 3. i was just a bit trolling about the comparison to small funny browsergame and multimillion dollar projects these days, who offering no originality or uniqueness, and just want to make money with old (decades...) gameplay ideas and even interfaces. no offense, ok a bit.

A web browser game that I played recently

(obs. Only played cause a friend of my was begging ¬¬... stoped after 1 week)


Is impossible to not compare with D3.

Too easy, repetitious and boring. Not attractive at all. Almost impossible to get good itens without ca$h... 6742781 quests to do, like "collect 10 drops"... is like many others common mmorpg.

The only web browser game I enjoyed was Dead Frontier (zombie game).

But maybe is just me, coz I don't like such games (play in browser).

eh paying money.. i see.. :/ mostly they rape the words "free to play"..
dead frontier actually looks nice. you think it is worth a try?
i just looking for small funny games for free since expensive games offer the same quantity or less in my opinion..

>edit< i checked http://www.deadfrontier.com/ (http://www.deadfrontier.com/) on myself and that looks really cool. but a few times a "get credits here" arrived  ::)
nvm seems to be funny stuff.

Play DAYZ instead. 13.00 dollars overall to play the mod, just need the Arma 2 expansion and Arma 2, which is free now.

i checked videos of that DAYZ, looks cool especially the zombie thing.. but its always hard to buy something  you dont know, even if it´s cheap.. thats one of the reasons i stranded at fonline  :-[ the only game i´ve bought over the past years was "day of defeat source" and i ordered fallout 1 over ebay heh.

Arma 2 free
Arma 2 expansion : 13 dollars from gamesrocket.com

Mod: free.

13 dollars for a HARDCORE FPS RPG slightly MMO ZOMBIE ADVENTURE?!?!?!

Quite a deal here... also, the game has the BACKING of the company! They get updates WEEKLY DAILY< ALL THE TIME.

Do some research on it, I can welcome you into my group with open arms, another pal, is another set of eyes scanning the horizon.


Addition: The guy who makes the mod, WORKS for Bohemia... so imagine the cooperation between them. The level of ferocity they have to deliver a mind blowing modification HARDCORE zombie adventure.

@John.Metzger
Well, all games have cash things, of course... but that drakensang, you really need to spend some cash to get better itens or really a lot of free time =P.

It is free however the free version uses NON -HD textures. So it's a bit blanded out. I use it to play Dayz however, and I personally have no problems. If your wallet size is more important to you than graphics (You're on the fonline forums, I'm sure we're on the same page) then you want the free version of Arma 2, with the 13 dollar copy of Operation Aroowhead on Gamesrocket.com

yeah i just heard and read about drakensang online and got the same impression.. a pity, just another tempting offer who wants our cash..
i have played a lot "dead frontier" now and i am realy enthusiastic about it, this is funny :)

No problem, hope you join my troupe of players. I just died after finding an abandoned WORKING car, that was missing 1 wheel. it had 30 MAGAZINES of ammunition for an M16, 4 frag grenades and plenty of other goodies..

I saw another survivor coming in, so I took cover, and through a grenade his way... heard a yell of pain, and then heard footsteps coming to me, he came to my hallway of death as I pumped him full of Ak47 lead.... He got his 1 round of Lee Enfield off in my head... We killed each other... Sad day indeed.

I'm downloading it now. Hope it works on my shitty computer.

Not anymore, bandits can no longer be picked out based on anything other than a feeling.

If you feel threatened, pull a trigger... simple as that.

Regular servers, will be able to mark enemies and see names... but VETERAN servers.... no tags, nothing.

I welcome all of you to my mumble server, if you would like to work with the some folks who can help you start. (ITS  VERY HARD TO START OUT)
