Ok. I have a greater understanding of FS. Gameplay engine, community culture, and HCS interaction.

We have player run radio

I;m pretty sure there's one in FS too, although I never listen to it.

HCS banned the radio >

We have bonding

FS players can like each other just as much as Gothador players. Wait...

But you don't get to share XP.

We don't have snotty kids who PM you with scams

Speaking of which, I have a bridge to sell you.

Indeed

Our game has depth

Ours has length and width.

You do have us beat on maps.

We cant PvP other players from across the game board

Actually, I like the pvp in FS better than here or SS2, because there are a ton more targets...imo, NOT being able to do that restricts pvp waaaay too much in SS2, and I never had to deposit any credits as a result, which led to me being able to dump more credits into my faction and into buying fcs.

I just don't understand how you can attack a player no where near your location without a projectile weapon.

I think that our interface is better

Imo, FS's is better, but to each his own...

*nods

We have the BOW

A lot of good it does you without the ARROW

www.Guildofwisdom.co.uk is still the best Gothador player guide.

We have a free shout box

Which would be really nice to have in FS, although it would just get spammed...

....with chat and banter. What's wrong with that?

I have started playing Sigma Storm 2 and was really enjoying it until the 2 games started to overlap. Seems everyone is comparing it to FS. I do understand that it has the same engine as FS, but do you really have to use the same terms as FS (ie Energy-Stamina, Flux Crystals-FallenSword Points), I mean this is a different game.

At least there were very few nubs "looking to join a fraction" after the first couple months.

hehe

We love the cows, but dont need constant attention to keep going.

Speaking of which, Hoof hasn't posted in over a day...time to harass him again!

Hoofmaster, who is that? I haven't seen a post from him in a year :?

We have Creature Locate

We do it manually.

You ask other players where a creature is for a medal instead of looking for it yourself.

We have Teleport

Yes, we certainly do. And while Teleport looks, at first glance, to be quite similar to portals, they are very different upon deeper inspection. For example, portal starts with a P and has the letter A in the middle, while Teleport starts with the letter T and has 2 Es in the middle. I would have to actually know what teleporting is to say anything more about it.

You type in the co-ords to a location in the realm are are teleported there, instead of walking there.

We have Platinum 8)

I hate you.

8)

We have many classes and sub-classes

We have classes too, such as: History, Math, French, English, etc. We don't usually have subs, though, unless the regular teachers are sick.

Every player in FS is a cookie-cutter copy of the next.

Our creatures have static xp

Some of ours use to also, but that bug got fixed I think.

And subleveling is the result.

yeah so /end rant. got anything to add for or against lets hear it.

Gothador will always be better than Fallen Sword to me. The same goes for many other players. I hope that you guys at HCS realize this.

SS2 might be better than gothador though, im not so sure anymore :idea:

REASONS WHY GOTHADOR IS BETTER THAN FALLEN SWORD

1) i played goth for 2 years took a year long break and yet here i am again. i cant keep away.

2) FS i tried then quit and have not gone back.

3) Gothador is better cause i said so! :twisted:

[Eleonora2]

Pro:
Alts are allowed but need them for the mining
Pets

Con:
Goth is slow, without much help from bigger players getting started is a real turn off :x

[alianya]

if you are in a cult then you can get a lot of help from more experienced players in your cult. cult hunts are always fun. if you have questions there are threads here where you can post them of check out Book of Wisdom that actually has most of the quests laid out step by step

[dyscord]

Reason number 1 why Goth is better than FS...

Me.

I still play Gothador(sorta) and I wouldn't be caught dead in that helmet factory they call Fallen Sword.

[OnionGroove]

I wouldn't be caught dead in that helmet factory they call Fallen Sword.

Amen to that.

[seasack]

you dont really get caught dead there , no one really dies , they just get defeated and have to pay to have their clothes repaired

[alianya]

One thing I've noticed is in the forum itself. I play FS a lot and have been trying to stay away from the forum. There is way to much crying and whining about just about every update the cows put out. I've just started here and reading this forum I don't see that here. I still like FS better LOL But I am definitely going to give Goth a chance.

no whining or crying about updates here at goth???

[Xiryith]

It's quite simple really. Gothador has 3 types of tasty steaks. FS has 4, none of which I would eat even if the alternative was starving to death. Ok.. that didn't explain it quite right.

The point is, we have quality over quantity. :roll:

[alianya]

and yet somehow we always manage to do so cause we got it like that

[blacqmath]

How about this for a reason that Gothador is better than Fallen Sword. Every time I create an account in FS, I lose interest after a few weeks. Then after a year or so I'll contact support and ask them to delete my account and reset my IP address so I can start a new char. As soon as I mentioned this on their forum people got all up in arms about multi accounts and reported me when I did nothing wrong. This has happened twice in as many years. I really don't like the FS community. They take that game WAY to seriously. Vap, that's what happened to bileal. I'm sorry if it set you back.

[seasack]

actually i like FS lol , its great for a tramp like me to have another whole different set of family somewhere , like a polygamist i am!

:mrgreen:

[OnionGroove]

like a polygamist i am!

:mrgreen:

Oh, so you're a ho now?
