first of all aoc is NOT a wow killer because wow will NEVER DIE!!!

wow will loose players to aoc... because is't getting old (almost 4 years) BUT wow will stay for manny manny years. So in the next few years you will probably see server merging in wow.. but that's just normal

There will always be people who come back or leave wow

but you'll see in 10 years wow will still have servers running ( UO is also still online..)

I will not say aoc won't break wow's records. The game is getting so popular that is't perfectly possible it will easely hit 10 miljion players

 

so will wow die because of aoc? the answer is:

 

NO!!!!

 

 

and also a little poll :)   :

 

 

Forum Poll

wow will DIE!!! blizzard will close all the servers
blizzard will do a server merge with the wow servers in the next few years

aoc will not break the record of 10 million players
WOW will never DIE!!!!!

Behold! Rash of the Itch King comes in November! Quake in fear!

Don't tell D3mis3 that! You're absolutely right of course. Except the AoC hitting 10 million subs part.

I don't think aoc will break even 1 million subs.

I predict a good number at launch.. about 500k, then a hefty decline after the first month and settling in at 150-250 subs..

PS:  not a wow fan nor aoc :)

WoW will never die? I call shenanigans on that one. WoW will die. All MMOs die at some point. Will AoC kill it? No. Will WAR kill it? No. Will the combination of the two lead to a decreased WoW population? Yes somewhat it will.

It was the same thing with EQ when WoW was released. People said that WoW would be the EQ killer. Which it wasn't, EQ was simply killed by two things, old age and new MMOs. However it's not like the day after WoW came out there was a mass exodus from the EQ servers.

Get real. And stop making posts for the specific purpose of creating drama. That's all that can come from a thread like this.

Clench all you want, it''s still going in.

nothing will "kill" wow. As the OP stated, UO is still online, and being played. So is EQ1, DAOC, AO, and most of the classics.

AoC will steal a good amount of players from all games. Some will not like the active combat mechanics, some will not like the fact that they need a real PC to play it. Most will fall in love with it though, and stay.

I think we'll have a couple million playing in a few months, and will probably stay around there. It's an amazing game, and I'm sure people around here consider me a "fanboi", but realistically I doubt more than a couple million people will meet the AoC target audience criteria.

I do believe it won't be no wow killer but i would rather the idiots stay in their pen and not bother us.

Yeah, this is a pretty lame attempt.
