Need a new MMO?

So I was wondering if there are any new mmo's out? I have played wow but I am looking for something new. I would need it to be able to run on the laptop in my signature if that is even possible cause it is the intergrated graphic's. I don't expect the graphics to be great as long as I can get it to run smoothly, Thanks.

One of the reasons WoW is so popular is because of the system requirements. Have you actually played WoW, or just tried the trial? If you find someone who already plays, they can recruit you and both of you can achieve 3x the exp up until level 60. I can run it on my Dell 'Macbook' Mini, it's playable. I was streaming the trial and didn't tweak the settings and it was 'fine'.


As for other MMOs.. besides Runescape, which is browser based and shouldn't have a problem running on integrated, since I used to do so in the computer lab years ago.




For the record:

A review on your laptop said:
At 1024 x 768 resolution, we achieved a playable frame rate of 32 fps in World of Warcraft. That rate is slightly below the category average of 41.2 fps, but virtually identical to the frame rates offered by the Toshiba E205 (31), The Acer Aspire 5740 (21) and the Sony VAIO S (33).

I suggest reading up on all the races/classes on WoW's site, finding one that suits you best, try the trial again, then if you still want to play, subscribe. Burning Crusade will get you to 70 I believe, and then you can roll a Blood Elf (Horde) or Draenei (Alliance). Then Wrath of the Lich King till get you to 80, then you can roll a Death Knight class on several races.

Well I install the game and started to play it again. I got some store credit at bestbuy and I think I might go pick up a expansion pack, Thanks for the input guys.

Yeah, and if you're looking into getting into an MMO and actually plan on playing it for a while, or play then come back later on, WoW would be the best choice. It's been around for 5 years, has about 10 million+ playing, and will be around for some time.


Also, if you do go with WoW, you can download the expansions from the Blizzard Store, and link them right to your account. So you don't have to worry about a disc or anything.

I've been playing the beta for APB: All Points Bulletin, so far it has blown my mind, only problem is the requirements, i would look into it though.

It comes out the 29th retail.

Check out the player and car customization

The actual game is an intense online shooter, you chose whether to be criminal or enforcer, i've had ton of fun burning, blowing up buildings, breaking in, buying weapons, upgrades. SO MUCH TO DO

And Azeroth, the main first place goes BANG!!!!!! so it is effectively a whole new place too :)

I'm still very happy playing Burning Crusade though, forget about the whole boring, easy farce that is wotlk and stick the good old days :)
