Am I the ONLY one who spammed this in all chat the first day you got the game...

BLOODGOAT · Feb 18, 2008, 09:55 PM // 21:55

yes. you are. well, I've heard of others doing it as a nooby, but it's rare.

Kusandaa · Feb 18, 2008, 10:00 PM // 22:00

Dunno, but I didn't do it. I did wonder on our the game was saved back then... but I did check for a Pause button. It really, really annoyed me at first.

Zahr Dalsk · Feb 18, 2008, 10:01 PM // 22:01

I didn't ask but tried to figure it out on my own.

Same goes for the pause button.

Not just console games... more like everything-except-MMO games.

Imagin being able to pause a MMORPG. When you pause it, it pauses EVERYONE elses gameplay aswell.
First Person: 'Sorry everyone, I need to go the the corner shop to buy milk. BRB in 5 minutes.'
Second Person: 'WTF?! I'm in the middle of a trade here kid!' Who the hell are you anyway?!'

OMFG! I'd freakin LOVE THIS!

I started playing gw on my friends account, so he taugh me all the basics.

Onarik Amrak · Feb 18, 2008, 10:48 PM // 22:48

Interesting question. You might wanna make a poll for it on Riverside. lol

_June · Feb 18, 2008, 10:56 PM // 22:56

If you don't see a save option there is none

pfaile · Feb 18, 2008, 11:01 PM // 23:01

This reminds me of the "how do I horn" on a grand theft auto vice city board on another game site board.

I pwnd U · Feb 18, 2008, 11:07 PM // 23:07

Nope, never once though about being able to "save" the game in the way you are talking. I knew that it pretty much was an "autosave" of sorts to where if I exited my progress in Experience, items, armor, money, would be saved but not my progress on a mission.

RPGmaniac · Feb 18, 2008, 11:10 PM // 23:10

GW wasn't my first MMO, so I already knew how they worked, and even on my first one I had watched my dad play it so I knew then too. But I was annoyed when I found out you lose your progress in instances.

blakecraw · Feb 18, 2008, 11:12 PM // 23:12

I certainly did try to ask how to save. I'd never played any mmo's before, and I kept wanting to save mid-quest (somewhere in Old Ascalon), since I'd partially do a quest (lead some people to a portal) and log out, then have to do that all over again when I logged back in.

"Man, I must be the first person that discovered this area. I've been walking around for an hour and haven't seen anyone else, yet that town I just left has like hundreds of people in it."

Have to admit when I took my frist char out of pre-searing and opened up storage I was a little worried about puting anything in it.....
