why isnt SOE being sued by blizzard for blatantly copying their combat system?..seems to me that the combat system that WoW has is the intellectual property of blizzard and SOE shouldnt legally be allowed to come along and steal it then regurgitate it as their own,the similarities are un-deniable, i know of recording artists whohave been sued for writing a song that sounds like someone elsesand they have been taken to court andmade to pay royalties etcthrough copyright law,why doesnt the same apply here?..jusrt curious......

its a valid question though right?..i was thinking the other day how cool it would be if someone else made game with the old pre-CU combat system,then i thought,naw they couldnt do that,the combat system will be the intellectual property of SOE,so someone couldnt do that,then i thought,wait a minute?...SOE have blatantly ripped blizzard off and gotten away with it..so what gives?

I deny it. Its not Blizzards its SOE, Play EQ2. cool down timers, zip bars and all. Even the magic healing, elemental damage etc etc etc.


Not saying its good or bad just describing where I think it came from in my own opinion.

Hell yea they should be sued.


they took a unique system of how your character is played and turned it into "grind to level so-and-so", I personally like the old system better were everything was based on your HAM not a stupid combat level.

Most of what SWG is turning into is from EQ/EQII content, not just from WoW
