    I can't help but think they don't have much more of an idea of what's going on with their own servers than we do. Why else would they say/do absolutely nothing and then throw us a free week like it matters.

    Agreed, minus one glaring issue - get more than a few people on your screen and the game starts clipping people/pets/MOBS off your screen randomly. Behemoth was a hilarious mess. Fucking console limitations.

    I'm not sticking up for them at all, they're fuckups of astronomical proportions and I can't believe this shit didn't get ironed out in the 3 years it took them to rebuild the game or during a real beta test (which they never did). I say this as someone who has had very little problems playing...

    Anyone still playing? I've got 2 90k errors on zoning on a row. Now the login is doing all sorts of new fuckups I haven't seen. This game is like being in an abusive relationship. I put in almost 2 days straight then it tells me to eat a dick and play the login game. I've got the full...

    While I'm on a roll bitching about their incredible mismanagement of the game, I have to mention how fucking ridiculous it is that everything up to and including open beta+early access is still under NDA for streaming/video purposes. The fact that they thought (before the epic clusterfuck of a...

    OOOOH I got a new error! Error 2002. Do I get an achievement for hitting 5/5 errors? EDIT: New Update! We are currently experiencing technical difficulties wherein players areoccasionallyunable to log into the North American/European data center Worlds on FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I've got 2 super casual friends and my brother who wanted to play with me, I warned them about the server, they chose Gilg anyway. None of them played the open beta, none of them got shit done ahead of time. Not one of them had much trouble making an account or getting a character created. One...

    Why did you buy it, you don't seem to like it much. I'm just as much of a jaded motherfucker when it comes to MMOs as everyone else around here but (aside from servers always going down) it's at least as good as anything that's come out since WoW. If it has any kind of longevity at endgame then...

    If you didn't manage to create a character at any point during the free weekend or wake up this morning to get logged in then I don't feel that bad for you. I feel bad for the people who have casual friends/bf/gf who won't want to wait to roll on Gilg but not bad enough to want to play on a...

    I had to roll back my video drivers (installed ATI betas without testing the benchmark) before I could log back on and I got in just fine. So, yeah. Quit bitching, it's the same bullshit on every server, except for the locks which are temporary and require some patience. If you don't like it...

    I'm poopsocking like its 1999 this weekend. Managed to go to bed early so I get max sleep before early access. Gotta make up for the wonderful day and a half 3102 I had.

    The Metal Thread

    Just going to drop this in here too... I'm seeing Katatonia/Cult of Luna in Sept but I think I'm most excited for their opening act Tesseract. Would call them a djent band if I was asked to categorize but there's a lot of prog elements and some Meshuggah type rythms going on. Mostly clean...

    New Dan Swano project called Witherscape. Sounds pretty good... Wintersun live was incredible. I'm not gonna miss them anytime they tour near me. Got right front and center and you could really feel the appreciation and love these guys have for their fans and their music.

    Sad to say I am too. What little I got play I really enjoyed, but this bug going on 2 days is pretty ridiculous. They better get it sorted out by next week or I unsub out of principle.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    3102 since yesterday afternoon. Level 12. No rested XP. At least I can say I unlocked the guildleves. This is annoying. Why wouldn't they at least do a restart a some point so we can TRY to get to an inn or something.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I'm confused about this too. Someone on the last page said the preorder people don't get OB access until Sat 2am? We talking Fri night/Sat morning or the next night? Where is this info, squareenix is so fucking bad at making all this clear. I also see people with their account already flagged...

    I can almost never get into black metal and it's subgenres other than a select few bands but I gotta say I'm really liking Xanthochroid. Helps that Wintersun is one of my top3 and they did an 8bit nerd cover on their EP but they're really fucking good. If those 2 guys in the video can pull off...

    I've ended up with an extra ticket for Opeth tomorrow (my brother got sick) if anyone in the GTA wants to go. I live in Markham, going to be driving there. I know it's a longshot posting here but I don't want to go to the show with a complete stranger/psycho, I'd rather go alone in that case...

    You remember what the rest of the setlist was? I'm seeing the same show this Friday and I hope they play a good mix of old/new/clean songs. So fucking pumped to finally see Opeth live.

    The Matrix (1999)

    I've met Matrix snobs like you in real life (usually working at Gamestop or selling comics) and they're just as obnoxious as your post is. Trust me, you aren't smarter than the rest of us. We understand perfectly the philosophy and mythos they were going for. Anyone who gives 2 shits about the...

    Mechwarrior Online

    http://mwomercs.com/ F2P, no pay2win options, giant fucking robots with guns. I must be missing something. This game isn't getting any love around here? I randomly caught a dev stream on twitch.tv the other day, gave it a shot, and I'm hooked. It's definitely not for everybody (call of...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    The only thing I remember from Rift that really stuck with me was the open world rift raids + random pvp fights in the desert early in release. No idea what the area was called now but those fights were fun. It made the pvp meaningful and the pve more exciting. Then everyone realized it was a...
