You're "pretty sure"? How exactly? It's not your "lifeline". Your blood carries oxygen to your brain. If that flow is cut off completely, you do not die instantly. Your brain typically has to be deprived of oxygen for 20-30 seconds, at least, for you to fall unconscious, and then a further...

I'll promise not to insult your intelligence when you show me you have any. EQNext was in development before Landmark was even thought of. Ever hear of the chicken and the egg? Maybe you should do some more research. I assume you haven't seen the videos of EQN gameplay footage? Here, let me help...

When I said "systems" I wasn't talking about things like level progression, classes or any of that. You guys act like you don't know anything about software or mmo development. Geez. Yes, most of the "gamey" aspects of Landmark will be rudimentary dumbed down versions of what EQN will have. They...

It's hardly semantics when you can't comprehend the simplest of fucking sentences.

Which is then ruined instantly by having the redneck fall back and die helplessly. I know speed of demise is a fucking trope, but they could have at least had him fire a couple of wild shots that missed Rick. And in any case, I'd call that an action, not a scene. I much preferred the...

I find your lack of reading comprehension disturbing. Edit: In response to your edit: You're fucking dead wrong. I'm done trying to have a conversation with you. You're either ignorant or being deliberately obtuse.

I never said anything about EQNext content. Nor did I say EQN wouldn't have it's own alpha as well. Why don't you read what I wrote instead of making up shit? Landmark is a testbed for all the systems in EQN. The actual amount of development that is Landmark specific is tiny.

What are you talking about? You think the systems/assets etc that are being added to Landmark weren't developed first and foremost for EQNext? It's the whole fucking point of this project.

I can't for the life of me figure out why any of you think that scene was good. It was shit. Everything got dragged out too long, and even ignoring stupid tropes, everything about it was fucking retarded. Rick headbutts the guy, guy stands there for a loooong time, holding his fucking mouth like...

Eh, it's not all that impressive. Landmark beta is basically EQNext alpha. Most of the stuff they will be adding is pretty basic generic mmo shit, plus some level design dev tools. All hand me downs from EQNext development. I'm having a lot of fun, but let's be honest, they're basically working...

I'm hoping the super hot mechanic chick gets down to the surface, and takes over after the ugly blond girl gets eaten by gorilla men.

Ah. I see. Goatface left out a word, screwing up my math. Damn you, man.

Unless you absolutely don't care about which hero you get, it's always better to just save up enough splinters for the ones you want.

I wasn't referring to real world copyrights, and have no concerns about people copying a template by hand for their own personal use. I'm talking about, for instance, you build a marble corinthian column inlaid with gold and diamond designs, and put the template up for sale, for $2. It's really...

The only thing I've heard about royalties, is that if someone buys one of your templates (say for a tower) and uses it in a bigger template of their own (say a castle) then every time they sell that castle template, you get a royalty, percentage amount determined by how much your template was...

I have my doubts about this Player Studio/sell templates for real money thing. Unlike the real world, there are no copyright protection laws. There is nothing stopping someone from say, taking the top ten selling templates and copying them exactly and selling them for less. Templates do get a...

Real smart move to increase your population tenfold when you're stuck in orbit with limited resources. Guess birth control/condoms ran out early.

I sent him a green mithril pick earlier this morning to get him started, since I have 10 of the things now.

They said that dynamic water is a pain in the ass, so they are just adding static for now, with caves. Probably taking so long because it requires a complete restructuring of the islands. Iirc all tiers of resources will exist on every island also. Crafted a legendary rubicite axe this...

Your claim extends pretty deep into the ground. I dug a shaft to the bottom, and cleared out a nice sized area.

I am running a 660, and an i5. Nearly the same settings, except textures are lowered to high, and shadows are low, get steady 60fps. I also have my GQ set to medium, which seems to keep it from crashing as well as not taking up as many resources. Thing is, GQ changes something(s) that aren't in...

Or you running on Ultra? And if so, what's your vid card?

That's...unfortunate.

I know it uses Forgelight, dumbass. I didn't bother to read up on every detail of the engine, I have better things to do. The simple fact is that Landmark has the same resource hogging problems as EQ2, and I doubt that has anything to do with Forgelight. Sure, it will be further optimized before...

In the future, please assume that most people on this board are familiar with basic industry standard practices.

I don't know the specifics. What I do know is companies will often re-use in house assets to save on dev time when devoloping "new" software. When I say "foundation" I am referring to code that was probably transferred over to provide certain functionality's that they needed, rather then writing...

I get the distinct feeling they used some of the shitty code from EQ2 as a foundation for this engine. There's no reason this game should hammer our systems like it does. In other news, finally got all my tools and stuff crafted and started experimenting with the build tools. Loving it. Like...

The email specifically stated that it's a random starter hero. Introductory was the word they used, so I guess that confused some people.

This.

I only upvote based on what they've built, since that's what it's for.

Game is down for a patch, Expected downtime was 2 hours. Servers are now up, 1.3gb patch. Yes, I'm bored.

Landmark is pretty grindy, if you think it's just a toolset and wanted to just jump in and (try to) build some cool shit. It's a game and more game elements will be added during beta. Based on my experience yesterday, this is what I recommend: 1. Queue up your favorite mp3 playlist (or...

Well, it is the best way to ensure the maximum number of people test the maximum number of systems. It will give CB players an "advantage" but, eh, I'm in, so I don't care. Edit: For those of us having the driver crashing/recovery issue, SOE contacted Nvidia and the problem is being worked on.

Like it's bullshit when your lottery ticket isn't a winner? And you actually have to pay for that.

Why would you lose your tools? Pretty sure tools would fall under "progression" if not "objects".

Guess the poor guy who writes the patch notes needs to get some more than longer sleep. "Phase 1 of the Loki boss fightnow will now wait more than longerbefore summoning more illusions. " Edit: Also got Thing in my free box, will never use, oh well. Logged on my old account which has...

I'm getting about the same FPS on my 660. Turning down shadows helps, as usual. They exaggerated the faces a bit because of SOEmote.

If anyone else has an extra, I'd love a key, but will not love you for a key. Edit: Got it. Thanks, Saban.

Agreed that those vids never get old. I don't know if that guy got an award for the actual film, but he should definitely get one for creating such a perfect meme.
