My point about advancement was.... the FOCUS for development in the mainstream MMO space has be Implementation of RMT and wow style gameplay. That is the only way i can sum up and describe nearly every release since vanguard. Even SOEs plans with Landmark are all about RMT... Minecraft is the...

Or maybe he is focused on making a game that the AAA studios won't fund? From a design perspective vanguard was awesome sauce I have not seen anything since with better classes and dungeons. I think brad deserves credit for that ... no? Vanguard was one hell of an experience even with its...

Wru?

If you do try it I would love to see what you think of the action combat there Imo it is done right although with clunky ass animations lol

Ddo is a bit dated graphically but the sandbox nature of building a toon is there.. dungeons are great fun too but it's all instances for the most part ..turns many off

Perhaps asking in eql thread if there is enough there to do it.. could be interesting

This is quite a bit like DDO or dd 3.5 in general with the difference being caster's can mem spells directly and others have to rely on gear items with clickie but everything is based off 2 sets of magic. arcane and Devine.. The more caster levels u have the more u get to mem.. 3.5 being quite...

Wouldn't it be hot shit if there ARE the tools needed in eql to do this and we beat pantheon to market lol!

That is what I originally thought brad was doing. Close to around the time SOE was talking about building an MMO inside eql I thought that brad and Co were doing that and it's a cool idea but killer is in details. .. how much control in eql is there for implementing classes and combat. ?. I...

I still think the second "way they get funding" will work and this thing will get off the ground... yes i know... pipe dream... lol

Honestly, I think they should not build a world to start. I think they should create some kind of lobby game with complex grouping mechanics and dungeons you warp to and users could potentially create. Start there, focus on that alone... then build a world around what you did before. 1. You...

I have been a supporter of this and put $ in kickstarter... but the question always remained even IF this thing was Funded, how would they get from small KS funded project, to MMO fundage and what would that MMO fundage do to the design mechanics. Even funded and even for what many wanted us...

Yes, i guess what I like the idea of is just players depending on players in more than a you take this guy, i take that guy mode. Trinity or other doesn't really matter.

and so the interest is already damaged, no trinity ? Is there some group mechanic that takes its place or its it just barfight mode ?

Sounds neat. I will start reading up... If the game has decent group mechanics in mind when built, I imagine user built content could be great stuff.

You would rather a lemming i know.

FPS like has me completely turned off, but if they were able to duplicate the SWG crafting and non-combat systems I would be interested.

Still wondering about what Smed was tweeting, about SWG players coming home.. I wonder if SOE is buying "The Repopulation"

The only thing i care about is a group based game, where most of the content takes a group to accomplish and classes built around that... thats it.. if EQN has it count me in.

How is EQN going to break the mold exactly ? Not sarcastic, I just assumed it would be a typical dumbed down solo fest like everything else, curious if that's not true...

Dood, SOE bought the company and owned the IP and was retaining much of the staff. Brad was in loose canon mode at that time, anyone at SOE would have said STAY THE FUCK AWAY as not to taint shit further.. and HR would have held his package and/or the sale over his head should he do anything...

It was a CEO with a documented substance abuse problem and you are surprised he was not there ? Seriously i am sure SOE HR wouldn't let him be there at that point.

you know nothing about the corporate world, CEOs don't layoff ppl. Immediate managers execute the action. Or if you are remote you get a fedex and a phone call by your manager and HR.

No it doesn't, only in your head. let the brad bashing continue !

sarcasm sir

That doesn't happen in every company that lays people off too... they usually give you 6 months warning. Just terrible !

Link ?

I was bummed i missed Tormet: Tides of Numenera myself, the lead guy's background is pretty solid.

well said sir.

You know gents, I am pretty happy for the whacky thread we just participated in... that is the most engagement/fun i have had around a gaming discussion in a long ass time... and for that /salute !

This is funny shit.. just get home from a date, smoke a puff and i am seeing champions, everywhere... ! I would pay 15 bucks for this forum !

So again a scenario u fucks are creating .. This is actually getting fun .. explain something else that's in your head and nowhere else

Popsicle u r off the rails man.

/87/ I don't get what makes you think that brad is trying to do anything other than build a game. What evidence do you have ?

So let me explain something to you.. you don't know how KS works and/or you are spreading bullshit. Did Brad go on record saying he is going to cover this ? This is what i mean... you are taking this too far and hurting possible future pledges... You are making up a scenario in your head and...

Wait what ? Did I miss something ? I thought that if KS does not fund, your money is returned. I was under the impression this thing is not getting funded... I have been busy with work, did Brad say he is covering the rest ?

I honestly wouldn't mind seeing a team come out of Turbine's layoffs. When WB bought Turbine it has been downhill ever since, maybe a new company, new funding and something older school ? Who knows. I would even dig a lobby game with a great and deep group experience... I may put some hope...

Laugh at the KS, i have no problem with. It was horribly done period. But there is quite a bit more being said out there around numbers interested, dollars raised is indicative of a lack of demand... I am putting this intelligently but the vitriol has been ridiculous. There is blind optimism...

There is a bit too much crazy around this thing that is not getting funded... there have been a lot of vocal people around that want this to fail for whatever reason and it has made supporters sensitive... one negative and you get jumped on. The funny thing is, look at the thread count and...

FF ? Wilstar ? TESO ? are those primarily grouping games or solo games ? ( not tried em )
