An Engineering Mind: World of Warcraft vs. First Person Shooter

[jdfshldjfhkljdgy]

Un till you have been in real combat you don't know what it is like

[100freeswimmer]

lmao! i play wow but this is hilarious!

[TheHokuloa]

Regardless, I will still play World of Warcraft and I will own those spells!!! WOW FTW!!

[MultiFortunatus]

Is being an engeneer on a MMORPG is justified when you're are the one with the bots that sell fake gold for real money?

[eurosonly]

both genres are addictive

[JackieMoon321]

You would think that engineers would respect wow at least somewhat for making engineering one of the professions that you can do in the game...

[PixelOutlaw]

I prefer traditional arcade games. Games that let you actually lose the game.

[NeOsaX96]

World of Warcraft!!!!!!!

[Ancientoftheages]

No. Starcraft. RTS all the way.

[gomunkul]

OK I'll be the first one to admit: I'm an Engineer and I play TEKKEN !

[Chimpalimp1001]

Yea nerds arguing about wow! To chime in RTS > everything else.

[Oxolot1337]

I play both WoW And some first person shooters.

I agree, but WoW is a Fantasy game. Not supposed to teach you life lessons.

[cataniculescu]

And about the Alliance - Horde neverending discussion, get over it ! Watch some lore videos or just read it, both have amazing history. That argument will never have a solution, because it's obvious that every side has good things and bad things and depends on your personal preference which one you want to roll. I am a die hard Alliance fan and i will go medieval on your ass if you, as a Horde character, insult me, otherwise i live you alone. Do each his own ! Morrons...

[cataniculescu]

Killer instinct ? You're short, almost bald and if "something goes wrong" you just cry and run away ! Games are games and it's people's choice what to play for fun in their spare time. You and other close-minded people like you need to go.

Most of the MMORPG-ers have more imagination, more social abilities and are not jerks like you ! FPS-ers just point and shoot day in and day out to achieve the goal of... what ? What's the goal ?

[ZajebaniFucker]

hm. interesting. WoW pve is much mistaken to be all what WoW gives. As FPS game require mostly speed and sharp eye..imagine what wow pvp require ? Good spec,good gear,time developing strategies either in 1v1 or bg, or arena and alot of brain use in various situations. yet wow is called nerd game and FPS is good becouse you actualy get chance to shoot someone in pixel world ? lame. WoW is fun, FPS is sickness :)

[cataniculescu]

@ZajebaniFucker You're right, wow is a very complicated game and it requires alot of abilities from the player. we have to deal with 20 buttons, a constant moving target, keeping the others alive and so forth. It sucks when people diss this games just because they couldn't handle it. The funniest thing of all is that nobody knows how many succesful people play this game, but most of them hide it cause their being criticized.You can have the hotest girlfriend and car, but if you play wow, loser.

[ZajebaniFucker]

@cataniculescu well honestly, i have 35 keybinds and i use them all. its realy hard but in same time it is funny . you pratice your concentration on many things at once and it takes time to get used. I dont need fancy car or superhot girl to be happy. I just find normal girl that acept me with any car and situation that i have, and if we function together, it is great. Aiming for girls that look only for money and that looks high status, makes you loser , acept it or not :) Dont worry, be happy

[aspire9000]

Sure are a lot of angry WOW fans on here

[DeusMalleus]

FPS games and RTS games are the best, anything made by Blizzard is shit, and yes, StarCraft sucked. Age of Empires II was more of an RTS than that game ever could be.

[Xero99]

ur not thinking this through the people that play fps will kill the all the nazi zombies but after theres nothing to shoot the mmorpg guy and there guilds will help rebuild the world through gathering proffessions and crafting

[RuskiHomie]

i ran into a mage in the mall last week... then i got sheeped

[Chicksdigmee]

Yeah they sharpen your fingers.

[mariopilot808]

I'm so happy and proud I love flight simulators!! :-p

[HeyGotCake]

lol if terrorists attacked id get my whole guild 674 members and kill the terrorists cuz they only have 124 hp but if u had a gun u would get pwned cuz u suck at aiming

[ToxicOdiousOne]

Funny like Dilbert or The Office. I like it.

[SeanGordonXRX]

Rocket Launcher: The only thing that can actually do a Bitch Slap to MMORPG games :D

[Disturbedrocks08]

Honestly fps players may have quick reaction times but so do mmo players. Have you ever actualy raided before on WoW? Sure its not as quick and fast as a sniper battle on GoW but it is intense. You have to be watching everything and making sure everyone does their job, and if they aren't you have to plan accordingly. What if your tank or healer die? you have to try and quickly recover before everyone else dies! Plus in a real life situation you wouldnt be use to how a gun would actualy fire.

[ninjafox1423]

heh luckly i play both :D so i can shoot lightning rockets

[Wond3rballs]

Real-Time-Strategy

I would think this genre is more thinking/logic based.

Just 2 cents, i agree wow is 'tarded.

Also loved your I "do" robots. I myself have a hard time explaining what I do all day. I have accepted I do robots.

[Squeedly135]

You cant be serious about this... i bet if you saw a terrorist at the mall you would shit your pants. And im not sticking up for wow or nuthin but a kid recently used the knowledge he got from wow to taunt a deer attacking his sister to come after him and then played dead to get it to leave them alone. So much for the wow crowd not being able to leave a basement, eh?

[BuffDuffforstuff22]

...oh yeah zombies die by your hand cause you played a first person shooter game, I play both first person shooter games AND WoW, and your video is about as real as the american healthplan.

[TheSlyFox1]

I think you can get addicted to WoW. BUT. The game takes so FREAKING LONG to play. I think thats why everyone thinks WoW is crack is because WoW takes time. Lots of time to play. FPS dont. For example in Halo. A game at most last 15 (matchmaking not customs) Where as a Dungeons and/or Raids could last hours. I like both games but FPS mostly because its cheaper. I iz an electrical engineer in college... i haz no money :/

[GageSmithb]

freewowgametime(dot)com is giving away free WoW game cards! If you have some free time you should try it. Delena Studyvin

[bioserve]

i thought this would be a way to turn the hud in wow for a hunter to be a first person shooter , and wingnut dorkazoid just called us wow players crack heads . all i can think right now is "you dont win friends with salad"

points for enthusiasm though !

[VikingArnasonFury]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA this guys sarcasm in the mall scenario kills me.... still laughing.. lol

[irltractor]

Wow i can't believe when I finished my degree(1st yr. CAED) that I will spend my time playing such shite as world of warcraft.

[DrGrundee]

You're an ignorant faggot. I like both genres, you treat it like its a clique or some retarded shit.

[ccrpalex]

wow dude you have no logic to what you are saying! I would say you acctually a nerd. What you just said was usless and retarded learn how to compare things. Most of the games have positive and negative things about them. It all how you use it. Like drugs (medicine) if you use it normal like you have to it's good for you but if you abuse it, now it's a drug and you are addicted. Same with the games. Some people play racing games for years and nothing. Some for a month and do GTA in life!

[foxsneeker]

FPS games r for lil casual fucktard who loves hitting the insta win button cuz it takes no time or skill

[TheSlyFox1]

@foxsneeker mk... lets see you go to MLG and dominate walshy and T2 cuz its SOOOO easy.

[TheSlyFox1]

@foxsneeker MMO's have strat just like FPS. Example MLG CTF in halo is extremely team oriented. Id love to see you walk in there and take walshy's, T2, or snip3downs flag. good luck ;)

[WoWaholic99]

LOZER WOW IS BETTER THEN FPS.

[SouthernersSax]

What is a "lozer"? Is that some kind of WoW terminology?

[rajah314]

Yah, how many times do you run into terrorists when you're at the mall? There are way more dynamics in an MMORPG than just reaction time...you must just have way too simple of a mind, like a lot of scientist types you're mind is somewhat one dimensional.

[anengineeringmind]

Q: How many times do you run into a warlock or a mage at the mall? A: Never, because the WOW crowd never has time to leave their parents' basements.

[222Bamboo222]

@anengineeringmind funny comment...but i play WoW and i dont live in my parents basement...cause im 14...and when i play MW2 all i find is eather...white gangsters...10 year olds getting pissed off and screaming in the mics...or people with angermanagement...on WoW you find kids on Alliance and Older People on Horde...i find FPS sounds alote like a STD... "honey i have fps.." what would you do in such an occasions...

[ZajebaniFucker]

@222Bamboo222 I wouldnt agree with your point of view : Alliance = kids. you might be horde lover but think again. Kids love fancy looking races like Bloodelves and wanna look Badass like orcs,undeads,tauren etc... I was participating in serious guilds in alliance that had most info of almost every pvp and pve occasion on server. Ally vs Horde discusion is lame and maturity of players variates from server to server

[222Bamboo222]

@ZajebaniFucker now that im back into WoW i would agree... rolling horde and theres a lot of douche bags on my server. rolled alliance same thing, just depends on the server

[ZajebaniFucker]

@222Bamboo222 Yup m8. GL in ally expirience ;)

[222Bamboo222]

@ZajebaniFucker lol oh no im still horde x]

[ZajebaniFucker]

@222Bamboo222 oh well, gg anyway :)

[fastweirdo]

@anengineeringmind

WoW does teach you to charge at your enemy and knife him in the back...

Just sayin'

[ChurchTheHero]

@anengineeringmind have you read the story about the kid who saved his sisters life from a moose attack using his wow knowledge. He taunted the moose and the moose charged him and he played dead which is a hunter ability in wow. Btw it looks like your in a basement, so you can fuck yourself.

[MisterAlexUk]

@rajah314 You completely missed the point.

[darkchip1]

MMORPG's own FPS's...

FPS's are all about who can shoot their opponent first in the head

MMORPG's actually take skill and strategy...

[TheHollowRod]

fact: it takes more skill to shoot your opponent in the head first. the only strats u need for WoW is how to take a shit without leaving the PC

[fa1thus]

lol.. i love it when people talk out of their arse. He probably hasnt even attempt to play wow. /spit

[TheWindowsGamer]

humorous video is humorous

[ironstrikerx]

wow is foucking crap...finished

[urjusterrible]

In addition, "People are losing their jobs over this game" Probably the funniest thing I have heard all day. You do know that people on Xbox live and other basic consoles lose their jobs too, NEWS FLASH it's called the world of gaming, not just one game, all of them. As much as I wasted my time lashing out on this pathetic video, I clearly enjoyed proving that my point is right and your video has no use here whatsoever.

[urjusterrible]

It's very annoying how you use this video in terms of real life, considering you think FPS games help you with "Killer Instinct". It seems like a joke but I highly doubt it considering you look like a complete nerd with a lame sense of humor. World of Warcraft is a bit nerdy I played it about a year ago until blizzard fucked it up, but really, 13 million players compared to what? Nothing because Xbox live is filled with a bunch of amateur gamers that think they are well put together.

[urjusterrible]

Massive multiple online role playing games take way more skill then first person shooters, period. They take way more strategy then going around a shooting people one by one. How do you have fun with that, seriously, its pointless, and takes no fucking skill unless your stupid at it. I can see where you have to have some strategy to overcome the other team but really what is there to it..."Everyone hide in one place wait for the team to come to us, OK!" Fucking stupid and boring...

[anengineeringmind]

Is it hard to type when you're wearing a cape? Seriously, MMORPG's require you to live at your parents and waste a lot of time walking around and talking to other people that live with their parents.

[americadashi]

this is my favorite video because of how good you poked at mmorpg.

[hagenisse]

MMORPG are fun, but FPS games are only to express your anger by killing off other guys.

[xdarkxbarbiex]

hagenisse you are stupid

It's called humor

He wasn't serious

Maybe you are better off watching monkeys pick their nose or something

[hagenisse]

First of all, i really HATE people who comments great games. Second - MMORPG is made to get people addicted, because its so fun! Fps games are almost made for the purpose to get people angry and aggresive. MMORG's are fun, even though i am done with the stuff...

Don't get me wrong, but i am fucking tired of guys, sending their angry videos to fucktards who got no life, destroying the fun for everyone.

[anengineeringmind]

Your comment makes me SO ANGRY! ARGH! I am going to go play an FPS to release all this anger! SO. MUCH. RAGE!!!!

[anengineeringmind]

I was totally serious.

[Shlycer]

FPS... they are all the same...

[DarkBerserkerLord]

roam the map and pick up a stray weapon with limitless ammo. LOL

[weskerDASNEAKYROGUE]

i keep hearing crap about counter strike....never played it myself....its on my to do list right now i gotta pwn some noobs with my leethaxors and lol when they QQ and i wil ROFLMAO at there OMG XD

[thelossbloodlock]

imagine... a warcraft... FPS...

[hagenisse]

A very good idea, indeed

[AlmightyCracker119]

@thelossbloodlock oblivion

[thelossbloodlock]

@AlmightyCracker119 No, I find Oblivion boring.

[flamefox0138]

@thelossbloodlock thats called Arena

[thelossbloodlock]

@flamefox0138 Do you know what "FPS" means?

[13bullitz]

@thelossbloodlock wouldn't that be something like oblivion?

[thelossbloodlock]

@13bullitz But with an engine that isn't absolute shit. Also better art.

[Nivecksk]

world of warcraft FTW fuck counter strike LOL thats mabe the wrost game ever i prefer flash games haha

[heya015]

hahahha

it is better

[heya015]

world of warcraft is better then that fps shit

[CybeastSeraphic77]

BOOO!!!, u suck at FPS, just because u can't shoot or aim straight doesn't mean u can insult it

[hagenisse]

It isn't better, but its more fun to play than fps games.

[testingfreak]

I'm a Counter Strike Fan!!!

[anengineeringmind]

Dude, Counter Strike...How did I forget about Counter Strike!!! Sweet

[heya015]

you are crazy

[starsiegeRoks]

dude 3 words for the most simplistic and fun fps ever.

Left For Dead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hagenisse]

agreed.

[vdude505]

nice idea

[mgtprofswt]

Todd....where do you find the time to come up with this stuff.....I can see you making videos for your kids!!!!!You made me laugh so hard I think one of my stitches came out!!!!

[damireagle]

LAWLWALAWLAWLAWLLAWWLAWLAAWL

[Lamar933]

lol!!!

"oops, too late! i just used a rocket launcher!"

[TaurenMellnium]

Hahaha... *blush* I am actually reading to become an Engineer.. and play WoW.. and FPS (First Person Shooter)

*grins* But I do FPS as a Zombie plan, just like you *grins* Or was it because the army rejected me..hmm
