    New World

    https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/1252132/narrative-designer Do you think this is for New World or is AGS making a 3rd MMO? Sci-Fi is not how i would classify NW or LOTR

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    We didn't know how good we had it on Phinny.

    Asmon: "Theres 30 stone towers with all the exact same enemy/mob/chest layouts, are you planning to do anything about this to add variety?" Mike: "The races share a language so similar architecture could be expected" I'm dead. The game world just seems extra big for no particular reason other...

    The Preview is over. They said there might be additional "Previews" between now and the actual launch, whether or not those will be under NDA I would assume not but this whole game's PR has been weird AF.

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I really don't want to go digging for it. I'm 99% that around the time the spawn timers on the groundspawns in SONH and Kaesora were reduced AJ had his spawn chance increased. We did the clearing strat for hours upon hours on Ragefire and it didn't make shit all difference vs just AFKing by...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    It took me 25 hours to get my Ancient Jarsath on phinny (no spawns in that timeframe), about how many would I expect to see on Aradune in the same time period?

    New World

    I found an ?elite? silver border named/quest NPC on a 3minute repop timer that was giving 5x the XP of every other mob in the area (1200 vs 240) which was odd because the other silver elites were only giving around 2x regular (400 ish). Relatively easy to kill as well which was pretty nice...

    New World

    Hatchet's 30% lifesteal on kill is just too damn good for solo PvE. If nothing else I found myself swapping to it and chucking a thrown attack at a level 1 critter for the quick heal. Combined with the LMB damage increasing passive IDK what they were thinking. Gonna try to force myself to...

    Game desperately needs some sort of closed arena-type area where people can't just run in 1 direction to get away.

    New World

    EZ Level exploit if you want to see what the game is like at higher levels. Requires aligning to a faction (level 11+) Go to the Northeast section of the world (Morningdale, Restless Shore, Weavers Fen). This area is primarily a bunch of higher level NPCs just as a warning, so dodge them. Go...

    New World

    Consolidated my issues with the game from a few different places: Misc: If Witcher 3 is the far left of the spectrum for fall damage, New World is the far right. Freefalling for 10s off a cliff to lose 20% of your HP feels weird when a same-level creature does that in a single swing. Music is...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    VP, and Kunark in general, is by far the worst of all eras of EQ raiding. It's almost the exact same formula as VT in Luclin but unlike VT shards most of the VP pieces are single spawns/PHs per pick. And all of that effort is to get to a zone where there's about 4 pieces of loot worth wearing...

    Everquest Mysteries

    That looks right. The PH for AC is also easy to find because almost everything else in the south half of the zone repops in like under 10 seconds, where the PH for AC/Erg Bluntbruiser is something like 18mins. If you get the LOWERCASE "a dervish cutthroat" to pop thats 100% the AC trigger and...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    They also just brought on Jonathan "Prathun" Caraker. The EQ dev largely responsible for much of the balancing and instancing implementation on EQ TLPs since Ragefire. If you think Blizzard isn't setting up the cash cow that is progression servers you are delusional. Once they are setup you...

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    I expect the timeline will be as such: Q4 2020 Shadowlands Q3 2021 Another round of classic start Progression servers at 6-8 months per expansion release (some expacs get delayed for "technical reasons" but really just to push them to not coincide with 2022 Expansion) Prog servers are just too...

    Everquest Mysteries

    I consider everything SoD and beyond to be "Extended Universe" and pretty much disregard it as far as canon is concerned. Once time travel enters the mix (and it does in MULTIPLE xpacs) everything goes to complete shit. The time travel aspect of the end of Plane of Time makes sense since all...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    shhhh don't ruin his dreams The truth though is that the majority of the server won't be able to login between 3:00-4:00, just because they aren't home. Queues will only really get bad when the casuals get off work and get home for the day. All us neckbeardy basement dwelling types should...

    Looks like someone applied the Fortnite filter to WoW but forgot to actually bring the gameplay aspects over.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    Yeah and True Vanilla is also shit, 1 year+ timetable and Rank 14 honor system included. Hopefully Prathun and Holly manage to implement a semi-decent TLP experience with all the purists whining in their ear the entire time.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Picked it up recently. Enjoying it for what it is, but it doesn't scratch the traditional MMO itch that keeps me awake at night. The questing is decent and feels like a better version of SWTOR, combat outside of trying to solo group content is a snoozefest (mostly due to spammable instant...

    New World

    Yeah without going too much into specifics, it really felt like magic was very underpowered compared to melee in PvE content especially in terms of an effort/reward ratio. I've heard on other forums that 1handed Sword was also trashing other specs in 1v1 because of gap closer.

    New World

    Biggest chance they had was being first to market vs. AoC. There's zero hype behind this game now so unless the August 30th non NDA streaming week gets a lot of big streamer exposure I don't see this game being more than Neverwinter-tier.

    Wondering what kind of cap they are going to settle on for the city node sieges. There's no way they can just let, for example, a 250v250 battle happen and crash the server.
