    Hrm, didn't think they'd do it this early, but they would eventually. This is NCSoft, a rang rang company remember? They have this shit in Lineage 2, don't they have similar in GW1? Thought all their games had cash shops pretty much. Wildstar is going to be cash shop heaven. Doesn't...

    Tried the Stalker today. I'm liking it. Kind of wish the Spellslinger had similar DPS, but beggars can't be pickers. The Dominion story seems better and more thought out than token good guys. At least I feel like I have a purpose for doing what I'm doing. Not that you'd play this game for its...

    Did the Green Man Gaming thing, came out to $48. At least it doesn't feel as bad as $60 for some reason. Left it patching overnight without issue.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    This has probably been said before. But the one feeling I got my entire time playing it, was that it felt like something that should have been released back in 07 or 08. It just doesn't feel like a triple A title coming out in 2014. Dunno why I got this outdated feel with it. Makes me kind of sad.

    Personally a lot of the issues had to do with the UI or me. -UI large and in the way and typically covered 50% or more of the character. Which meant I had to resize it, which meant everything was tiny letters. (Going to be fixed in later phases) -Loved the combat most of the time. Didn't get...

    Only time I've gotten shoddy FPS was while in Windowed mode. I'm using Fullscreen Exclusive (what ever that means). I really like the combat, dunno about the questing for now. Sucks that my two friends whom I was hoping to play this on release have since dropped out and decided to not even...

    Shadowrun Returns

    Same. Is it a yay or nay on the expansion? I enjoyed the oc. Is the xpac an improvement? How open is the world?

    So Brad, let me summarize all the responses thus far: Remake DayZ standalone, except with swords and magic. Done.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Alright so I'm confused, pardon the boob-noob question but: So my team and I start a KS asking for 100K. It gets funded and we live on that for a few months and get our game going. But 100K doesn't finish the game (we still need marketing, multiplayer, etcetera) and we now learn we need...

    Will trade it for anything with 8 slots (this has 6). Figured it's perfect for Wrath since he's streaming and journaling.

    "My past has taught me that fallen deities become vengeful god kings." -- Aradune Mithara, Ranger Lord, warning the people of Triundia about the exiled god, Oranthel. I thought Aradune Mithara was a ranger that wielded a Fiery Avenger and lived in Norrath?

    The way Muurloen is playing the game is really the way to do it currently. If I die and can't get my shit back think I'm gonna be run and gun as well. @Muurloen, Even before you bagged the one dude, I could have sworn I wasn't on for more than 30 minutes and you already had an M4.

    In order of priority (feel free to edit): Critical 1) Fire axe, or Hatchet: With the fire axe being a priority over the hatchet. Back away from the zombie until it does its swing animation and then smack it with the axe. 2) Can Opener: Combat Knife as well, both do not lose you food. But...

    Definitely had fun. Think I'm gonna print out the map as well since I was lost half the time. The suspense during this whole thing is fucking nerve wracking. Hadn't felt that way since early UO. Be cool to post up where we're all gathering so we can make our way there before Friday's event.

    Go hereand make note or print out parts of it. You're looking for the big red boxes (medium weapon yield) to big red circles (high yield). A good place to get kitted up is the Rify ship wreck or the North East Airfield, NE of Krasnostav. Hop servers until you find one that is less than 5/40...

    Dunno what the deal with zombies is. I was told to juke and lose them by vaulting over fences, hiding in bushes, and running in a zig-zag trail through various obstacles. None of this lost them, they followed me for more than a kilometer. So I gave up and pulled out a shovel I found which...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Stan Leecameos in every fucking marvel movie and how blatantly obvious they are. At first I didn't care, but it's slowly been getting to me. Peter Jackson cameo at the beginning of Desolation of Smaug. Would have been fine if he hadn't looked directly into the camera as he bit into the...

    Regarding combat sounds; when you shoot or hit something are the sounds crunchy? Does it feel/sound like you're actually crunching through meat and bone? Something about WoW and most MMOs now days feeling like I'm hitting a sandbag and the weapon contact sounds don't feel or sound visceral...

    It works if they allow you to put high tier raid items on the Auction house completing your money loop. Person A with lots of cash but little time to raid, will want to buy the entry level raid gear you put on the AH. Person B, young guy, doesn't wanna pay sub, but has all the time in the...

    I'm going to get hated but sorry for being out of the loop... You mean it's 2014 and we're still having new MMO's insist on 40man raids? You mean 40 man dynamic right? (min 10+).

    Shadowrun Returns

    Loved the game. Never played the tabletop since I hate any system that plays like Storyteller. That aside I enjoyed SR:R will get the Berlin campaign and really hyped about the MMO. Dead Man's Switch is incredibly short. Less than 20 hours for someone like me and I'm going to say less than 15...

    Witcher 3

    Never played the first one, got the 2nd one collector's edition for Xmas two years ago. Couldn't get past the first town (the one with the hookers). None of the quests get marked on the map, or maybe they can be but I have no idea how. Then I had to go searching for stuff to have my dragon...

    Too many games?

    Same issue word for word. Soon as I figure out the mechanics and the magic wears off. Same issue I'm having with MMOs as well. Once I "crack" the game, it's like throwing more gear at me or continuing the story doesn't really do much for me. I hate myself for blowing $100+ on WoW the other...

    Warhammer Online RIP

    Guy out here will do it for free as long as you provide him the resin. If it's a master he doesn't have, you'll have to also provide silicon and obviously the master. His son has had stuff printed by an online company (some custom Elysium drop trooper stuff). They own a 3D printer which...

    The twitch factor is starting to concern me. Watched a friend play at low levels as long as you pay attention and have half a brain it isn't so bad. My concern is that "hardcore" or endgame will be balanced against how quick your 4th grader Mario brothers reflexes are. Again using Tera as an...

    Entropy on Steam.

    I've been burned way too many times to count with the Early access shit. So now I always click on the Community Hub and select Discussion. Steam users are pretty vocal if a game in EA is shit or not. Check the Community Hub first, you should see quick reviews with a thumbs up or thumbs down...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I don't get the impression RSI is onboard with that sort of thing. I haven't followed his/their blogs, but seems to me he's still stuck in what I call "Mass Effect" mode: Unique locations that take artists and designers a few months to put together each. That translates to thousands of...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    My concern with the extremely high level of detail on some of the ships is that we won't get a lot of variety. The "world" won't be as expansive, and be as large as say Mass Effect 1 and 2 put together. We'll then trade or grind economy and do PvP for months or years before another expansion...

    A Parallax map is similar to a Normal map but designed for static objects such as rocks and scenery elements. It makes scenery pieces look more detailed than they are. Look at a bridge, building, or static object, you should see a difference between parallax maps on or off. They could also be...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    I was almost suckered into buying the $110 packet, like I had my Visa sitting on the table ready to punch in the info. Until I learned that the same ship I was getting (Freelancer) was just another ship I would be getting in the game through normal play. Basically the $110 is just investment...

    Ok see that's the thing. "Eve-like, MMO-Style economics and persistence" is no different whether you and your buddies run a server or play on the official servers. That being said, as it goes with these sorts of things, I predict most folks will play on private servers they put up with their...

    Had some spare money lying around and was thinking of getting the $125 package, suddenly lost interest as I read more and more about it. I've been loosely following the development and so far don't like any of the ship designs, but the Freelancer has grown on me. Anyhow, I'm confused; I...

    Shadowrun Online

    Judging by Jagged Alliance Online, and the instanced nature of this game, I'm going to assume it'll work like JA:O. Instanced arena type affairs where you queue with a party of friends and get thrown in randomly against another party of players or AI.
