No. This game only succeeds if Brad & co. stay focused. Fucking around building a seemless world is not staying focused, it just adds art costs, development time and debug/qa time without increasing the fun factor. Zoned are cheaper, more efficient and more than sufficient for fun game play...

Seemless is 5x the cost unless you're okay with craptastic generic, repeated art. Most of VG's budget was blown on the art assets for the seemless world.

@Xaxius no way can NewCo afford the art costs of a seemless world. @ Drakurii evolving weapons are cool, I'm personally not interested in evolving armor. I want some loot to look forward too.

VG2 but with some instances, eq loot, combat in-between eq and vg (with otdt and virtual group targeting). Very interested to see how the combat improvements will play out.

seems like there will be some instanced run through dungeons in the design based on Brad's suddenly gaining access to a new dungeon in order to level comment. But I am with you in preferring camp and pull non instanced dungeons so I hope there will be some of those as well. If they do have...

VG craptastic minimap wasn't bad, but I'll take no mini map over GPS. I actually like floating numbers. Means I don't have to check my log andcan stay looking at the world. Useful if you happen to forget your guy was equipped with a pick axe not a sword when you logged the night before.

Maybe NewCo can sell design your own guild flags at a reward level so you can get a unique flag for RPP (you know me).

Nah. Reverse osmosis water filtration solves that problem. Think more proactively old chum.

Damn. I wish I'd titled this thread: Time to Stop Eating Fish and Start Growing Potatoes (Fukushima Round Two) The Potatoes are the perfect survival food: I never knew the Scandinavian method of planting. Thanks for helping me find the link Araysar! You're a good chum!

You say that now but when you've been starving for a week you're going to be handing over some of your Krugerrands for my potatoes. Potatoes are: 1. Easy to grow. 2. Easy to grow. 3. Easy to grow. 4. Fun and tasty. Growing Potatoes

So literal, are all liberals so literal? I'll have some potatoes, some sweet potatoes, and with some luck maybe those yams that you use to make poison arrows. Also various legumes. Hopefully eggs too but I won't be trading the eggs.

Tannlin also has short excerpts of this thread on his pantheonrotf reddit - nothing that gogojira hasn't covered but useful if you can't read rerolled at work and don't want to get eyestrain from your phone.

Why? You want to trade?

Barter. It's what's for dinner (tm).

Where have you been?

Not in the amounts or form necessary to buy goods if it's the end of civilization. I take it your pockets are lined with Krugerrands?

Red Pandas v. Chinese Pandas is more important for the inevitable Panda-based race.

Cash? Who carries cash these days?

What's happening in 2026? Civil War? In which case the Fed drones will be busy elsewhere.

Even if they sold them you couldn't, all their computers would be down, your car wouldn't work, neither would gasoline pumps. I think you'd be a little more worried about the exploding ethanol train, the nuclear meltdown or the leaking chemical plant than finding telegraph parts.

I have an 11th Edition Encyclopedia Britannica, a Lathe and scrap metal.

I like breakable items - not item decay, breakable. Goes along with spell resistance for higher level mobs, items should have a very low chance to break (say .0001%) that goes up as you fight higher level mobs (say to .005% for a mob 5 levels higher ). Items might have slots for a gem that...

It should be whatever reward level is the digital download for the game or the box (which might be 25 but could be 35 for digital download/50 for box or whatever).

Easily fixed. Telegraphs are a little less complicated than google glass.

You're still failing at reading comprehension old chum. I was simply advocating for the use of 19th Century technology from heathens who thought I wanted the Earth nuked back to the Stone Age or some other shit. Also you suck at thread titles (should have been Tad10's the Sky is Falling...

That's a nice new ability I assume that's the Paladin ability, the SK ability would be "tad10 disrepects Furious for 10 damage"

Friends don't let friends post when they're drunk.

We could not disagree more on looting. I will say, on the raid level, a smart rng would probably make raiders a little happier than straight rng. @Fubar. I'd much rather have crafting. Dip was a good idea poorly executed. I'd rather have a good focused adventuring sphere than either...

Some procs? Hell yeah. The above? Nooo. Can you imagine the loot rolls? Everyone rolls on everything.

Should have been Pantheon: Fall of the Risen.

@Brad Aside - making pvp a stretch goal is pretty clever. If Pantheon gets funded, pvpers will work to hit the stretch goal.

Good idea but devs would have to design around it. VGish example: flying kick is an activated ability. Fire stance and Ice stance (I forgot actual names) are passives, but they're mutually exclusive. You can either add a little dps, or add a small chance to slow. Similarly your system should...

Yeah this works too. Though I wouldn't go unlimited.

dcuo, eqnext, I thought wildstar too. Others I'm forgetting (aoc?)

There are a bunch of mmos with no auto attack and spazzy combat existing or coming out soon I don't think we need another.

8 anything buttons. 2 for melee/ranged auto attack. And an AA for buffers that gives them 1-4 additional hot buttons just for buffs. should probably start at 6 buttons and increase to 10 as you level.

Learn to read. Beagle's article cites a study four months after the Fukushima incident which was what I was responding too. I do have a dangling comma, but whatever. If you want to go all grammer Nazi you can fuck off. TL;DR Sue your middle school.

1. That's August 2013. Not April. 2. Do you understand the phrase "ongoing disaster"? If not, sue your middle school, you can't read at the 7th grade level.

If there was a truck of bananas on every beach in Northern California somebody would have noticed. As I said: forest, trees, sheep. Get your eyes checked.

Four months after the Fukushima incident, wasn't the last time Fukushima has had incidents. Fukushima Watch: A 'Level 3' Incident at Daiichi - Japan Real Time - WSJ Fukushima is an ongoing disaster that is still spilling shit into the ocean. All the time. Every day.
