Any advise on a mmo linux game ?

Post by zooth » Mon Sep 07, 2009 1:54 pm

I'm wanting a good rts or action windows vista game that will work easily with 7 but doesn't require a expensive graphics or video card. I'm about to go to high school and need a good game that will last a while...

Most of the older civs will work in wine.
Starcraft works in wine.
WoW works in wine.
Check out this site:

I think there is actually a starcraft port for linux, but I don't know how many people are still using it.

EVE Online runs on Wine in linux and I think it's even officially supported like that. It's also the best MMO game out there, hands down, provided you have patience.

I'm really happy for you and Imma let you finish, but Runescape was one of the best MMOs of all time.

Guild Wars runs in Cedega (and wine iirc) and is better than WoW
