Hello

What do you think is better Runescape or W.O.W?

Just wondering? Thanks.

CBMatt · « **Reply #1 on:** May 21, 2008, 06:32:26 PM »

...You're kidding, right? Do you not realize how immensely different these two games are?

I'm not a WoW fan, but I can safely say that RuneScape is far inferior to...well, just about everything.

From what I've heard of Runescape, I agree.

I've been playing WoW since its release.

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #3 on:** May 22, 2008, 08:45:35 AM »

I used to play Runescape about 3 years ago. Tried to play WoW but never liked it.

smitty10492 · « **Reply #4 on:** May 22, 2008, 04:02:37 PM »

Thanks I'll go and try it.

If you don't want to download it or have trouble doing so and know someone who has the install CDs/DVD, I have a 10-day pass code you can use as well. (Basically the same deal).

smitty10492 · « **Reply #8 on:** May 23, 2008, 10:36:32 AM »

OK. I'll probably download it today. Another Question how much does it cost for W.O.W

Computer Hope Admin · « **Reply #9 on:** May 23, 2008, 08:54:59 PM »

I'm assuming you're in the US.. If so it's $14.99 (15) a month.

quaxo · « **Reply #10 on:** May 23, 2008, 09:42:55 PM »

If you use a credit card and purchase multiple months at a time in a subscription, it gets a bit cheaper.

You can also pay with 60-day game cards (available at any game shop) and now Paypal.

Jed3245 · « **Reply #14 on:** October 27, 2008, 10:32:49 PM »

If there was no runescape HD i would pick WOW but Runescape HD is mint. So...RUNESCAPE HD

joevh09 · « **Reply #15 on:** December 23, 2008, 04:55:07 PM »

Runescape

macdad- · « **Reply #16 on:** December 23, 2008, 05:06:52 PM »

runescape all the way, even if i cant play it in HD.
and also their membership(free-to-play is free, but members are pay-to-play)
is at a good price US($5.95) a month, WoW is just to much(not as far as prices)

gamerx365 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 23, 2008, 05:34:09 PM »

WoW is probably better, though I don't like it much. I play runescape now and then but it lags a lot anymore. And I think I'm still only paying 5 a month(old members still get the old price). Not like the dollar is a big difference.

My friend always tries to talk about WoW to me but I don't understand what hes saying lol.

"Check out my Dark Healer Elf Warrior Marge's Sword" and stuff like that. I just don't understand it. Runescape is pretty simple in my opinion.

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #18 on:** December 24, 2008, 09:51:34 AM »

Thanks for the bump

ozziee · « **Reply #19 on:** December 24, 2008, 10:31:24 AM »

Runescape is just getting better and better and I've played it for like... maybe 5 years. But I'm not playing that much now though, still, I'm enjoying to raise my skills.

WoW, I've only tried the trial and I enjoyed it too. It took awhile to get used to it but I think it's better than runescape.
There are much more quests to do and are more challenging.

macdad- · « **Reply #20 on:** December 24, 2008, 11:44:17 AM »

RS and WoW have there advantages, WoW seems to be more custom when it comes to your character, but RS is still good(much eaiser to understand)

Carbon Dudeoxide · « **Reply #21 on:** December 24, 2008, 12:47:39 PM »

I haven't read through this topic, so what I am about to say may be repeated.

Runescape can be related to real life. WoW....not so much....

Yeah it has the best of both worlds, 3D graphics and its free to play.
I pick Runescape only because its free to play.

Here is a list of free MMORPGS, some are 3D others are 2D, some examples are Archlord and Guildwars are listed.

Guildwars is pretty darn good, and easier to understand(much more that Wow)

You don't need money to play WoW!!

I run on a modified realmlist that connects to a private server called Middle Earth and you just go to their page, login and play.

however it is still in the Burning Crusade era at patch 2.4.3, but you can find others, like toxic WoW at 3.0.3

Just do some hunting around, the hardest part is getting the game, its so big

I just got the DVD's from a friend...and you can always get the base client and patch your way up.

Kinda reminds me of a family guy reference. lol.

or the one were Stewie threatens Louis with the Tom Hanks refrence "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know wat you'll get, THIS TIME LIFE IS LIKE A BOX OF ACTIVE GRENADES!"

BC_Programmer · « **Reply #30 on:** December 31, 2008, 07:45:23 AM »

that was the first episode. "Death has a shadow". the actual line was:

stewie: you know mother, life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. You're life, however, is more like a box of active grenades!

Now, I offer you one last chance for deliverance. Return my mind control device... or be destroyed!

Lois: oh, you just want your toy back... ok, here you go honey.

Stewie: Yes... well... Victory is mine!

Runs off...

explosion...

Stewie: Ahhhh.. *censored* you all!

Sorry I'll explain.

WoW is like any game, and has patches that fix bugs, add items, quests etc.

and some servers require you to have a certain version of WoW to play on their servers.

So I use version 2.4.3, but some people prefer newer patches and so opt to play on servers that use 3.0.3.

Sorry if it is still confusing
