Only that the random mobs you kill could possibly drop the torment-only legs. But there's no bounty-related benefit.

Fire and lightning seem to be the main options for barb atm. I have pretty solid fire gear all around, and if you like HOTA then it's pretty great. Personally, I find the skill clunky and migrated to lightning as soon as I had a few pieces to do so. With cinder you can go HOTA as your main...

After absolutely hating the original release (except for the money I made in the RMAH), I felt pretty guilty picking this up a little over a week ago. I've really enjoyed it more than I have any game in recent memory- I thought I would hate not being able to trade but it kind of makes the stuff...

It does say: "As the owner of the IP address, HBO requests thatLeaseweb USAimmediately do the following." So I imagine it's one of the Flex US plans, and Leaseweb USA is who whatbox uses to host. If not, that's a really roundabout email chain or bad copy/paste job. I think it's worth noting...

You can also get in via invites, though their invite system is very restrictive. They block entire countries from even interviewing if they find them to do too much invite selling (I think India had like a 60% rate of invite selling). But it's mostly to keep quality of all the torrents...

Yep, it's done in IRC. Very exact questions about audio formats, transcodes, ripping, spectral analysis, general torrent knowledge and their specific tracker rules. Took about an hour queue to get an interview, then maybe another 1.5 hours to go through it. Pretty easy if you prepare...

Interesting, which provider do you use for seedbox (and which country is the box located in)? Did they just tell you to take it down or was there anything more? I use autodl-irssi for True Detective on IPT, maybe I'll just delete it the day after since it's always like an 11:1 ratio by then...

The movie/tv show tracker HDME.eu is having open signups/sitewide freeleech right now. To be honest, the site sucks. Looking for specific movies more than a year or two old gave 0-3 seeds on each. For being a "hd only" tracker, there were certainly a million different versions of each...

It's just accusations at this point. The BTN sysops have been the most outspoken at pointing fingers, but the affected sites seem to be in agreement.Here's the thread about it on reddit. Announcement from BTN's Sysop, Bitey:

Ugh, I've been putting off doing the [What interview-->PU invite chain] due to laziness and having IPT already. Pretty shady- even only being a user for one month IPT felt like it was really doing everything it could to solicit "donations.""You won't be safe unless you donate now and get our...

Great article that includes comments from the writer/creator:meta stuff.

Those helped a lot, I'd recommend also adding: +m_rawinput 1 Game felt a lot smoother after that- apparently mouse rate is tied to FPS or something by default.

Two runs for me, zero supers. Not going to bother throwing stones at it for that kind of return.

From the stress at least: There's an inverted chevron above friendly players in your group. Enemy players have a icon floating above their head indicating their faction. Injured players have a health bar floating above their head (red for enemies, blue for friendly). No names currently...

Used this one on my support ticket a little while ago and they just added it to my origin account (PC), nice and easy. Thanks and good luck.

I'd like to hear some input on this as well, it didn't feel consistent enough for me to give you a definitive answer. For example, like you said if I initiated a 2h power attack with something targeted and the target moved away or I turned direction, it would still land even though the...

That's a bug that has been there since I played in the November stress at least. The mobs respawning is hit and miss depending on whether you get to the objective right after a reset (or maybe the megaserver splits people into instances and some get the mobs, some don't- it's hard to tell...

There's another round of press beta isn't there? I think it was mentioned by a few of the guys doing the initial impressions but some of them weren't sure they'd get in the second round due to their opinions on the first. I wonder if they'll have the same odd restrictions (they could only...

I have no reason to believe either of you- neither of you have provided any evidence to back up your claims. I can, however, see with my own experience that the level 1-17 content is finished but it is subjectively boring and objectively broken. Honestly, this puts you in a no-win situation...

These responses regarding 17+ content are always so carefully worded. As long as RvR gives xp, the existence of high level players doesn't prove anything about lack/abundance of PVE content.

I think they both took great screenshots. Where FFXIV ARR shone, however, was in movement. The animations looked great and when you moved, the world seemed to move properly. Stuff felt solid, and spell effects were great. There were little touches like hair/clothing moving in wind and...

GoD and OoW had group progression instances, like the trials in OoW. But no one did them to grind xp- you did them once and then hated your life if someone needed you to carry them through it. There were options to do instanced versions of Dranik Hollows, but those were lower level and people...

The group only had to be on their toes if the puller sucked. And since you were a bard... I'm sorry, but unless people were forced to crawl for a single progression mission, no one did. There's a reason why LDoN was a huge failure of an EQ1 expansion: you not only had to crawl but you had...

Their patch notes look pretty long and elaborate every time I see a new stress test. But from November's stress to last weekend, a bunch of important low level quests have remained broken. Same with abilities. So either: they're working entirely in areas we can't see (content above level...

I just wanted to corroborate this point, at least. If there isn't a member of the Chinese communist party physically sitting in the room during negotiations, you're not having "one week away" type negotiations with a large Chinese company. I find it hard to believe that an official...

Didn't really mind anything about the art except for the animations and some areas with broken/missing textures. Had fog, but I really didn't notice it while playing more than other games. I probably keep my camera angled down toward the floor more than most- I could see it being a bigger...

Ability lag was widespread so I definitely chalk that up to the servers, but the full desyncs were hit or miss (ie Flake there didn't experience it and there were clearly defined zergs so it couldn't have been everyone). I do wonder how exactly they update all the positions/directions/abilities...

Plenty of devs lie about new engine vs copy/pasting large sections of a previous one as part of marketing. I linked earlier in the thread about CoD ghosts first claiming it had a new engine, then backtracking for release and say they "iterated" on the old engine. There's no way to prove one...

I'd like to point out that on Sunday you said the loading times were "a lot better" than Saturday. They weren't, of course. And now you're claiming they were cleared up on Monday. They weren't, people (including myself) had the same problems- client crashes and disconnects on top of the...

Give Rescorla the same opportunity? As far as I can tell, he hasn't provided proof of being in closed beta either so far (and they could both be lying, or some combination). If he provides you proof and Utnayan doesn't, I think that would say a lot.

Gigabit. These kinds of obnoxious screenshots get posted when people get it done:

I did a VPN first, then switched to a seedbox after a week or so. Regret signing up for a full year on the VPN, but it wasn't a huge cost. Really addicted to the seedbox now. My biggest problem with the VPN is how much of a pain in the ass it was outside of torrents. Google's autosecurity...

Most of the previews for ESO so far I've seen present it as "buggy and mediocre but maybe they can fix it by launch." While I agree the press usually overhypes mediocre to poor MMOs, there is an example of an absolutely broken and ill-conceived MMO that both the press and players slammed.The...

People were happy with it in Kansas City from what I remember. Austin is next. Apparently they're working on Provo, UT as well but I don't know anything about it. Cities - Google Fiber

It's weird- it's hard to even justify it for immersion because there are exceptions like the quest markers and the highlight-glow. In Cyrodiil you see floating health bars above players but no nameplates. All your enemies have their faction's icon floating above their heads. Members of your...

At one point when they're sneaking behind a bush I leaned really close to the monitor and started wondering why it was so tense- realized then it was a one-take shot. Had to watch it again right after. Always loved the cinematography in Breaking Bad, especially those big open shots between...

To put it in perspective, this game has been in development since 2008. Six years now. PGI first was teamed withJordan Weisman, the guy originally responsible for the FASA MechWarrior titles. Weisman's studio isSmith & Tinker. Both studios worked together on the game until ~2011. Until...

You can add the autodl-irssi plugin to rtorrent/rutorrent if your tracker of choice uses an IRC feed for it. I know IPT had a guide to setting it up- I would go to the forums of your tracker and see if they have a guide for their site. Or if you're using IPT let me know and I can dig up the...

Bard kites were effective because xp mobs in EQ had no ranged damage due to the terrible resist system. The only mechanic to avoid this later was summoning and certainly did prevent bard kiting even without leashing. Aside from that, there's middle ground. Say there's a shipyard and a ship...

These games do not have the same systems present as EQ. What MMOs these days have mobs that don't leash after 10 feet? If you want to grind mobs in modern MMOs, your entire group has to be moving constantly instead of having one guy going out and pulling things. And how many modern MMOs have...
