[edit] Intro
Hello, this is Chrisworld. The name has no real purpose, it was simply the name of a 2D based RPG I made back in the early 2000's with RpgMaker 2000 so without originality it became my online name.
I played Diablo 2 LoD as my first online game for quite a few years....were talking quite possibly 6 years and I've managed to keep my characters from expiring all these years, so there is NO stopping now!
[edit] Guild Wars
My Second online game was Guildwars. I came into the GW community in March 2006 after seeing it in bestbuy and wanting to try it out. I quickly realized the game was awesome and decided to stay. Like any new player I was stuck at times in the game and looked around for help on the internet if friends weren't online. I came across a small gaming site called Gameamp in 2006. Gameamp was a site divided into many game sections each with their own forum. The community was great for a while, but as the game started to get older, the forums started to die and the community degraded. By 2007 more and more trolling occurred on the site each day, more and more bugs and glitches were found in the site. With the original members gone from the site and the creators of the site abandoning it, the site basically fell apart. Rumor through 2008 had it that on 1/19/2009 gameamp would be shut down. Well it was shut down right on que, but just a couple days before that date. The site was great while it lasted. Gameamp was the site where I joined [AMP] (Guild:Gameamp Guides) in late 2007, a guild and alliance that is still active, in which I still reside today.
My Account is basically is basically complete with all possible add-ons (except the PvP ones), which is all you really need to know, not that you care. I have enough slots to carry one of each class for PvE guaranteed, and extra warrior and one extra Mesmer for PvP only stuff. There are even more slots even after that for the experimental characters, muahahahaha. Then there's a legacy 4-slot prophecies account for extra storage and Perma-Pre fun.
I play and enjoy all classes in Guildwars, but I still have favorites:
- Warrior: My Main character and top favorite class. I'm not sure why but I do have two warriors.
- Mesmer: I started off like everyone else, not liking this class. With some free time and patience, I learned to master it. I began to PvP and kick ass with it so it is my only PvP-Only character at the moment.
- Necromancer: I don't know what it is but I also like this class a lot. Deserved a spot in my top 3 favorites.
While I am a PvE player and tend not to get along with the PvP type, I still play some PvP. Usually it'll be Alliance Battles, Fort Aspenwood and Jade Quarry, primarily for the faction and Zaishen Quests and the money that follows from faction. Balthazar faction can be turned into Zaishen Keys, to be sold for a few platinum each. Luxon or Kurzick Faction can go towards the titles, the PvE skills or the Jade or Amber shards which can be sold to the crafting merchant also for some cash. I also play for both sides, because sides are for the weak.
[edit] Guild Wars: Mesmers
Mesmers, the controversial class of GW. The only thing I can say about them is, they are heavily underrated. Even I didn't like them when I first started, I came to realize it takes time to learn and enjoy them. Once I got familiar with the Mesmer I quickly began to realize that this is one hell of a class and nothing more than true power, but look around and you'll still see Mesmers as the lowest rated class AND being hated on for no reason. Why? Well most people I guess don't give them a chance (no patience, like I was once) which can be the majority of it. The people that just blatantly hate on Mesmers without a valid point are idiots, lacking the skill to understand whats good in a game and whats not, I'll go ahead leave those guys to go play with their cookie cutter characters and talk like robots about the same shit over and over in the game.
[edit] Guild Wars: Notes
- Guildwars Guru: "Elite fansite" my ass.
- Syncing in RANDOM arenas are for people who can't play.
- Syncing in RA AGAIN after they "fixed" it is for people who still can't play.
- PvE Carebear is a stupid ass phrase.
- Mesmers are severely underrated.
- Grief Reporters will get their day.
[edit] Guild Wars: Things GW Needs
- Revert of Splinter Weapon in PvE
- Revert of Ursan in PvE
- Nerf assassins teleport/cripple/daze bullshit in PvP (in otherwords the stuff that immediately stops you in your tracks as a caster and kills you instantly) and GW is supposed to be balanced?
- 7 Hero Parties (Why the hell not?)
- 4 and 6 man zones become 8 man zones for Hard Mode (Again...why not?)
- Revamp of Alliance Battles (Because the Kurzicks player base has degraded to people who cannot play, why should AB be forcibly on Grenz map all the time? It's ruining that aspect of AB for most of us.)
- Add more space for friends list/ignore list (seriouslyz)
- Make it so you cant whisper someone if you're ignoring them or if your DnD/Offline (would be nice)
- If your offline/dnd make a message appear when someone tries to message you (for people who are offline trying to buy or sell in towns, very annoying)
[edit] Guild Wars: "RR (RRetard) Day"
I did play Hero Battles normally every once in a while and it was fun, shame to have seen it go and replaced by Codex arenas. One of those many days I played HB legit (I NEVER abused RRetard day..ever) was always tough because of the RRetards. Gaile Gray stated that RR day was considered cheating/exploiting and that was enough to believe it was. It's really quite amazing what happens next though. If you take into consideration that RR day was cheating and considered some form of match manipulation, well... thousands of players must have been breaking the rules. But what is even more AMAZING is that even with the fact RR day was truly against ArenaNet's golden book of rules, people participating in it literally reported players for not participating it when they wouldn't resign on red team. People who didn't cheat were griefed at, reported...god knows what else. It's really quite ridiculous..people reporting you for not participating in an exploit....
Well heres something I wrote up on the very last RR day Hero Battles would ever see:
I played HB normally today like I would any day during the supposed last RR day of HB (the day deemed officially "cheating" by arena-net) and was actually griefed and cursed at by other players (ON GUILD WARS GURU and in game) who were there for RR day only. I'll repeat that, I was griefed at by people for playing normally and not ABUSING/EXPLOITING a match manipulation.
Guru Links:
Heres to playing HB normally:
"To those who are Griefing RR players" (in otherwords griefing the people who are breaking the rules) http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4902589&postcount=443
I sorta defend myself maybe with a valid point: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4902677&postcount=457
Apparently I'm an idiot for playing HB normally: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4902682&postcount=461

[edit] Console Games
Not a console gamer, but I have had my share of fun with them in the past, as well as a little bit today. I play some Wii games a little bit once in a while mixed up with my old GameCube classics like Windwaker, Twilight Princess, Resident Evil 4....
[edit] EverQuest II
I started around July 2007 after some friends wanted me to play. To my surprise, the game was only 7 bucks in gamestop. I played for maybe a month or two before I basically quit, so it went dormant for months. I somehow felt the need to go back to the game in early 2008 with a reason unknown to me. The game was awesome, don't get me wrong. The design of the game in all aspects, classes, characters, races, the world and all the things you could do in the game made it a very dynamic and impressive MMO to me. With all this came a price though...the game client was terribly coded. The game came out in 2004, they were never able to optimize the client for dual-core CPU's fully, they were never able to hit the graphics card optimization just right and just to play the game right you needed a computer that exceeded specs that of Crysis, for an MMO FROM 2004. This terrible client got worse as they tried to "fix" the bugs in it..but that obviously didn't work. Then comes The Shadow Odyssey in late 2008. TSO, as it was known was nice at first glance, a very nice big ass map was introduced with lots of quests and plenty of content to get your character to the maximum level. This new content also marked the SECOND end game area which is stupid...why have two end game areas in an MMO? As TSO sunk in so did the new armor. The new armor of TSO was worlds better then the best armor you could get before TSO, and there were several tiers of this said armor getting better and better as you went up the tiers. To get the tier 1 armor you had to basically grind for hours on end for days at a time to get half the shit you needed to one piece. Then as it sunk in..people started demanding people use this armor and your a noob if you didn't. Well I didn't get the armor so here I was all alone soloing again. At this point at least a couple friends of ine had quit the game so what was I still playing for? Never mind that, let me just keep playing the pointless MMO. As time went on MORE shit started happening. My guild leader invited someone he knew in the game for a while, into our guild and then she immediately outranked me while I was in the guild for a least a year so far. Pissed off, I held my tounge till MOAR shit happened. She started moving my shit around in the guild hall. Then even m0ar stuff: One day in May 2009 I logged on to find an empty guild hall. SOMEONE stole all the stuff from the guild hall. I asked immediately what had happened. I was told someone completely robbed us, we all lost our privileges to the hall except the leader of course and HIS FRIEND WHO HE JUST INVITED. I was at my wits end at this point. Me and some good friends decided to make conspiracies of who did it, immediately blaming the girl that got invited into the guild by our leader, who out ranked us. she came from a guild where she wasn't accepted and wanted a hall to herself, so It didn't seem weird at all to think this right? She could have framed it so that it got locked down but knew she would still get access to design stuff in the hall. I mean...the logs are anonymous, she could make a nice story. Long story short we found who it was, someone who wasn't a member was given access BY A MEMBER WHO WE NEVER FOUND OUT WHO WAS and they gave the items back. Now..those items would have never been returned if it wasn't for me still caring about the guild that already kicked me in the face. I filed another petition and got the best EQ2 GM they have available who should b getting paid more then she was at that point. Even after I let the guild know and gave them the countless boxes of items back, I still didn't get my privileges back for helping their asses and the leaders 'friend' continued to stomp all over the hall designing things. I was offered to help but I turned down for obvious reasons of HATRED. Half a month later, I quit with barely anyone online and have no intentions of returning, I also pretty much beat the game got to max level, got my epic and saw all there was to see...IF I happen to decided to go back...I can already tell things have really changed since my departure... from the eq2 players page, one of the good members deleted one of his good characters and another one of the good guys changed guilds. It seems like things fell apart, honestly.. it was a shame....the game could have ended up so great.
If they would have kept the game client running smoothly for realistic modern day hardware quirements, catered a little bit to the casual player base, had better security logs for people who pay 15 a month to play a game... I might still be there, my friends would and the guild would have never become a shitfest.
That is the story of ShitQuest II.
