    Green Monster Games - Curt Schilling

    At the risk of looking like a spelling nazi, maybe try spelling his name right? Obviously I can"t speak for Curt, but it would annoy me personally if someone was asking personal favors of me and didn"t take the 2 seconds needed to verify the spelling of my name.

    There"s nothing inherently wrong with it, I think his point was that developers generally don"t go out of their way to create headaches for themselves. Things which are borderline exploits create problems for them, from encounter balancing to other players whining, hence the developers will go...

    So once again you"re posting nothing of value, just saying "do what everyone else has already done, but balance it well!" Color me underwhelmed. Your "obvious" solutions describe WoW talents (skills with pre-req"s that prohibit multiple specialties) & WoW"s combat system (elemental resists...

    Your entire post amounts to "it"s being fixed/adjusted." That"s super, but surely you can see why people have some angst over said issues, now that they"re paying customers.

    In a word, bullshit. I bought the game, plenty of the problems people have are completely valid. Performance issues, heavy handed nerfs, CTD"s, experience rollbacks, lack of content at higher levels, ridiculous travel times....all are valid complaints, many of which we told them about in Beta...

    Honestly, he"s making me wish we had Tad back. This isn"t raving to you? At least Tad typed like a coherent adult.

    Granted I didn"t play Eve for long, but I don"t recall it having a class system.

    Not really a question, more of a suggestion: Take a long look at some of the discussion that"s gone on here in regards to the FFXI Job system. It"s almost universally praised as one of the best class systems in MMO"s to date, and really lends a sense of attachment to your character as opposed to...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    It"s a neat idea, but I just don"t see it working in the game as it"s structured today due to the universal auction brokers. Why would a crafter bother setting up shop in some remote place when he can easily throw his wares up on the AH and have tons more people see it? There would have to be...

    I can"t believe nobody has copied FFXI"s job system yet. It really was a great way to have people playing at all levels.

    Or maybe learned it from a game they created, EQ? The same exact thing happened in EQ once Kunark came out. Dungeons like Howling Stones & Chardok (pre-revamp) sat around completely empty for the most part while Karnor"s & Seb had lists for every named.

    It really depended on the server cluster you were on (they have multiple realms sharing a single DB server, if I remember correctly). You could have been on a low pop server & still had shitty performance due to another server on your cluster. On the other hand there were clusters that never had...
