I had great fun playing mir2 beta though :)

When i logged on to mir3 i didn't feel comfortable playing the game = / i guess i just prefer the mir 2 interface tbh,however, the mir3 interface does have alot more to offer i guess

wemade shud allow ppl to make their own custom interfaces, that wud own.

as for mir 3, the one thing that drives me away is the bloody size of the maps, and the mazes to get into caves, it just sucks

Logging in to Mir3 beta feels exactly the same as logging into Mir2 a couple of months ago. Greed, rivaly, lust for power and many more things have screwed Mir3. Gone is that beta feeling, people don't care about one another, a stranger will never even think to hand your level 15 character that spell book you've been desparately seeking. Not for free anyway. In other games, beta phases have been great, friendly times when people help each other out so that they can do things together, as a group. Not with Mir3.

As I've said to friends who've asked me about it - Mir3 is just Mir2 with 16bit graphics. The new things that have been added are just gimmicks, stuff that you look at and go "oh, that's pretty cool" and then never think about again. There's nothing new, nothing fresh, nothing innovative. New spells and fancy graphics will only get you so far.

mir 3 is a different game to mir2.....

the reason why every1 is acting like it, cause they can hide their identity until phase 2.
no1 cares what happens between now and phase2. but once phase2 starts, people wont be so violent cause of they r gonna stick with their charas. but atm they can act how they want and no1 will stop then.

mir3 is great, if its not your type of game, then fine, but dont go saying its ****, cause it isnt, and that will put off people playing, just cause u dont like it. thats kinda selfish.

mir3 isnt suppose to be the same as mir2, qgo said u will suffer if u treat the game as u play it as mir2, and look why every1 is upset....

give mir3 ago, if u dont like it, express ur opinion please, but dont go saying its ****, cause tbh its much better than anything you could make in ur life.... (questionable, lol)

its like saying a football team is ****. but i bet they could kick ur ass anyday, anytime if u played em.....so, doesnt that make u ****? compared? i think so

its not that its **** but its not what i like from a game, its just not what i expected of it. i played mir2 beta for a few weeks and i enjoyed it, mir 3 just doesnt do it for me, if it was like what mir2 was for me then id be playing it right now but i cannot see my self in a year playing it like i played mir2.

Its depends on where u come from really, if you never played mir2 before and had a go as the first attempt - you grow to like it as it easy enough to pick up. The problem mainly is people coming from mir2 is that the game in the inital stages is much the same is it not.

If you had not played mir2 and tried both - i bet you a dollar that you would say mir2 is crap as the gfx are worse are they not. Gfx's are not everything as u know, some laptops for example struggle with 800x600 where as 640x480 is fine.

The other problem is that if you have played mir2 for a long time, you have a high level char on there vs a noob on mir3 - so its hard to jusify paying to start again as it were...

Myself - I had a quick go on mir2 a while back (free account o level 20 sort of thing) and it made me laugh as it was such a crock with the gfx, i could not beleive i used to pay and play that thing, to me mir2 is dead - sometimes you have to move on or we would all still be playing Doom 1 :)
