    EQ Never

    I think EQN will be a decent MMO based on the gameplay vids I've seen. If they can get the Storybricks worked out, then it instantly raises up another class regardless of how blind it leaves you after combat. I'm just saying that you're going to get a lot of people here because they've gone...

    Be careful what you guys wish for. Isn't this isexactlyhow we ended up with TESO? I mean, all the conversations leading up to "I wish someone would make a Elder Scrolls MMO..." The players always want a Frankenstein: SWG's jobs, FFXIV's graphics, TSW's lore, WildStar's combat, WoW's...

    State of the Game Highlights (or lowlights): -Megaservers.They talk about launch day insane queues, the opening of more servers, and the need now to"rectify that toot sweet".Then they explain the benefits of everyone mashed together. -Content updates."An aggressive drop schedule was...

    Have no more interest in AAge (for various reasons) other than reading the salty tears flowing from it by Patrons and the accounts (from anyone) about the PvP battles, although PRX seems to have the better ones. You guys really got reported for basically PvPing too well last week?

    Wait, you think you're going to: 1. Download the game then 2. Get in the game to play? Do it on the two new servers if you're looking to get that done this weekend at any point.

    As people said earlier, no need. You just sit at the character select screen when you're done playing. Trion decided to make scripts unnecessary for convenience so that's where people park when done.

    Cool then. How much of those credits does it take to purchase an extra character? Just curious.

    I feel for you man, but you must REALLY want to play this game to throw good money after bad right now. That's the spirit Trion is counting on and.. it's working. People keep saying "Fuck this game" and still try to log in and when they do.. "Here's some more cash, Trion". I'm not sure I...

    I sorta don't blame him for the Defiance mess. He did exactly what I would do if I had my former company sucking my dick to come back and run it; tell them to get rid of all that fucking dead weight in San Diego (pretty sure that was a condition). Most of Defiance happened off of his watch so...

    Bond's pics are amusing, but the textures on them. Pretty horrible. Not doing the game a favor there, bud. They are fuglier than your shots. edit: HAHA! I see the goldsellers don't have any problems getting on by your chat. Wonder if they got Patron status too, lol.

    Sounds like a flush to get all the AFKs off. Even Trion finally figured out by this point that people were doing the AFK trick. Those boys are slow, but they do catch on eventually.

    To be fair, this game was made for our smaller endowed, rice-eating brethren not us. You're talking about some other PvP sandbox game that should have been made for Westerners... Darkfall. You can still play that if you truly want what you just described. Seriously, check out these features...

    But that's kind of my point though. If your people are smart enough to have figured the problem out beforehand by knowing "Okay, we're going to piss a LOT of people off and we'll lose some but if we stick to the plan, it will work out", then you have to stick to that. That's what SE did...

    That's exactly what FFXIV did with no flinching. Pissed a lot of the base off but very few quit the game. Once things slowed down they were allowed to Xfer over but that took a good long while. Same with the Veterans; locked to the new servers due to concern about monetary imbalances with people...

    Archeage

    I'm sorry but I simply cannot believe that an entire studio full of industry people couldn't foresee that basic, fundamental point. If you're a F2P, you HAVE to be in-game (or apparently the char select screen now) to get your points. If you're a Patron, you don't. Trion claims the 'whole...

    The lack of quality competition doesn't have to do with lack of interest; it has to do with availability (they can't get on), organization (they just aren't as organized as PRX is), and possibly other priorities (just getting around to doing things you guys did already). I get exactly what...

    Think I spotted the problem Elurin. You have a job. How do you expect to play ArcheAge and hold a job? Tell them your pet cat has bone cancer (everyone loves cats), file for Family and Medical Leave Act, stay home and mash buttons until you get in.

    Lulz. Keep these updates coming Tuco because this is some funny stuff to read. It's sad but I now realize that at my age, I'm more than content being a PvP jocksniffer than actually putting in the time it takes to be part of a regimented PvP team anymore. Gonna stick to the casual PvE with...

    I don't really see that. Most of the complaints aren't "I played this game and it sucks" it's "I want to play this game, can't, and it sucks." People will want it more because they'll want to get in and see what all the hubbub is about. Even if people say fuck it and don't touch it for a month...

    There's a double reason not to log out. #1- You won't be able to get back in and play again for a long time. #2- Most importantly, you don't earn any Labor Points (as a F2P). If I was playing as a F2Per, my computer would literally be running like a Chinese Bitcoin mining operation this...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    My guess is it's related to that thing people have been saying everytime someone in FFXIV asks for something from FFXI to be put in, be it classes or whatever..."Because this isn't FFXI. If I wanted that I'd go play that." I think SE doesn't want to pull too much from FFXI because then the...

    Assuming they'd really want to sell at a fair price I guess (which doesn't seem likely early in this game, hence the land grabbing). Seems like a wuss way out anyways. I'd like to hear about the New Jersey Atlantic City method of land acquisition in a game like this (PvP based). Offers they...

    One thing I'm curious about. Let's say a guild (PRX) set up shop on some island and got most of the plots. Then some guildies join on the server later (after launch) when the queues die down and they finally can get going. They see that the village that was set-up is all taken with perhaps a...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    This is either a strawman argument or you misread. This is what he said as far as time: "I raided 4 months in beta (3-4hrs/day,4-5days/week)," Pretty sure that's not considered casual these days... probably 5-10 years ago it was. Even if someone is playing 40 hours a week in three separate...

    FYI: He did not just describe JoeAverageGamer. Not sure how you're going to use an obvious example of a hardcore gamer's schedule and then say"See? Casuals were never ready for this game."

    Yes and no. You're dead on about bleed but the problem with WS was the rate wasa lot fasterthan other MMOs from the top guilds. Usually those poopsock guilds can run content and replenish over a six month period before the guilds go busto. In WS, the top guilds died out a lot faster. It's...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I think a bigger factor isn't percentages necessarily, but ratio. In WoW they probably had the same percent of hardcore raiders that WildStar does, probably around 10%. The big difference is WoW had something like 100 million total accounts created as of Jan 2014. If you have 10% of those...

    Interesting. I wonder which variant of 'soon' they mean. If it's the Rift "We'll have a new expansion soon" after they announce it, maybe not too bad. If it's the Trove "We'll have these issues worked out soon", it's not looking good. If it's the Defiance "We'll be releasing your 5 DLC...

    Of course they didn't put any extra bonuses in there worth anything for paying a sub, lol.
