Hey all

Looking for a new game, and nothing is really begging me to play it right now. Havnt really enjoyed a game properly since last got hooked in an MMO.

Played UO for years, SWG, and WoW too. But obviously these days I work so I dont have the time to commit to it. Plus my gf would play as well (she played wow for a bit) so something free, that I wouldnt care too much about if I didnt play it for a week or 2.

Any ideas? Preferabley something that was truley free instead of having a cap for free players and uncapped for paid.

Cheers

Cant believe I am asking for an MMO after all this time I have been clean ;)
 
mhm, those two words should never be put together.

I've tried all the major ones and an unspecified number of smaller ones, and in all honesty I can't recommend any.

You could try a free Lineage II server I suppose, they're legal last I heard (2-3 years ago) as they released the old 'chronicles' for free.

I think 'Flyff' and 'Silkroad Online' are in among the most loved free mmo's.

MMO's are another one of those things that you get what you pay for

this is true, but I want to get that MMO fix without the cost and the knowledge that if I am paying for it I will get every last second out of it, which I cant really do now with a gf and job ;)

Want to be able to power grind if I feel the need, but also play casually as well

Will checkout those 2 you mentioned, but any other ideas anyone?
 
Ultima Online on a free server :D

hah, originally played on europa, then a free server called blitzkrieg, was kickarse we had the most hated PK guild on the server ;)

dont think its about anymore though, you got any suggestions for decent uptime / population / etc servers?
 
free MMOs aint worth it tbh... The time and effort you will spend in this MMO to get good, you may as well pay a fee, and get a good proper MMO.

£8 or whatever a month isnt a lot when you think the amount of time you'll be spending playing it.
 
If you want to pay "some" money, get Guild Wars with Eye of the North.

If you want a completely free MMO, go for Cabal Online....the combat system is great.

Also, Acclaim's "2 Moons" is pretty good, but keep in mind that a free MMO will have NOWHERE NEAR the content or individuality that a paid-for one will offer.
 
As everyone above has already said, free + mmo = rubbish. Suck it up and go without a few pints each month. You won't be going out as much anyway :D
 
Isnt RYL free? no grea ton grpahics but the game play was fun and fast when i tried it, abuot 4 years a go now...

Other than that, maybe a clan game like COD4 on server teams or even NWN2 on someone else's server is always good.

Angel island has a cool ruleset, but I dont think many people are online there any more. Plenty about though, just google and UO free shard and look around!
