    Fondest Memory of MMOs

    I was just about to move in 2003 and my guild (Legion) was doing Rathe Council with FoH. I was there most nights until we beat it. I logged off, moved house, and never played EQ again. I loved the way I finished that game and am so glad that I jumped into private beta (thanks, Sean!) for WoW...

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    Call me crazy but I am pretty excited to have more burled wood, stucco colours, glass refinement, and props, more so than the half-baked combat v0.01.1.a . I get my MMO fix from FFXIV now so this is all about getting my building fix.

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    Today's patch notes are the first to mention performance improvements in the last few months, so we won't know for a few hours.

    EQ Never

    I would be surprised, given the lack of any mention of it and given how primitive the mobs will be. These mobs don't even appear to have full pathing: there are three or four varieties of static plant mobs and two types of floating will-o-the-wisps.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I did Netherwing on three characters. It was a sickness that I thankfully was cured of.

    His point is that the whole game is a sequence of mini-games that you do when you don't have anything else to do; it all depends upon what type of progression you want. Pick the ones that are fun for you and ignore the others.

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    The game renders EVERYTHING to a certain distance regardless of if it is visible, so when caves were added everyone's performance got worse as you were now drawing much more. They need to fix this.

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    As best as I can tell, the "resolution" limitation of Landmark sized voxels is not the primary limiting factor preventing us from producing professional quality models. Instead, I think we are limited by the game's textures. We have a fixed set of textures, with no colour-tinting, no...

    The final crafting system is not yet built into Landmark. It is on the roadmap to be revisited and extended post-SOE Live (source)

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    On a whim, I picked up both Landmark and Wildstar in June with the intent to play Wildstar and have a look at Landmark a little bit. I dropped Wildstar and have really enjoyed even the current version of Landmark. I have no background with 3D tools, 3D design, or art of any sort for that...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    It seems like what you are saying is that you have no data. You should just man up now and say "I made all these stats up to validate my preconceived notion that this MMO will fail, and my opinion is that this game will fail". I don't have an issue with you having that opinion. Your prior...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Can you share your source for the saying the average player hit level cap after two months? I would be interested in reading more from the source for player retention rates that shows no one plays long term too. I was under the impression that the active player base in SWTOR, GW2, WOW, and...

    Ironically, margarine is not healthier than butter. Large scale studies have shown that people who eat saturated fats (found in dairy or meat) are less, not more likely, to die from any cause, especially those associated with blocked arteries and coronary function. Based upon this, I can look...

    It's ok. You wrote something that was ambiguous and got called on it. Be a man and stfu about it. You are shitting up the thread with your replies at this point.

    Guild Wars 2

    I think that they need to think of ten small things that could have a major impact to change the dynamic of WvW rather than focusing on big thing like new maps. For example, here is one idea for them that is small, surgical, and may help WvW by discouraging people from forming large groups...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Welcome to Massively Multiplayer Online Roleplaying Games. This is indistinguishable from heroics. Here let me show you how it reads: "Yea but then you use all that heroic loot to... do more heroics". It seems to me that the goal is entertainment and most people seem sufficiently...
