I must have missed that which is entirely possible, but I still don't think I've seen where SOE said they are removing that, but you keep repeating it. I think you hit the nail on the head though. That'sexactly whythey are doing Weapon Mastery... because they know there are people who are...

That's true, but what it DOES say with less than 30 days left to go is that they don't have any confidence in it whatsoever. I mean, it's not like they are holding it a secret so that when they reveal it, it knocks everyone's socks off with it's awesomeness. This is pretty much what TOR did...

Is this the first actual public admission of Next being a sandbox and not a sandpark? Kind of weird to say 'directed content' and 'sandbox' in the same paragraph.

I dunno. Groupthink can be dangerous. It's been known to kill mmos.

Like Chieftain, like indian.

212 devs? Is that even possible? How are they all not tripping over each other's feet?

No, healers that can heal and trollers that can provide the PoT are worth a damn, otherwise why bring them along if you're just going to have people that die because they can do good DPS? Clipping by itself is not means of 'skill' or being a good player. It just means some monkey figured out...

Can someone explain why with 30 days til launch, we still don't know hardly anything about raids and dungeons? Is that odd to anyone or does that seem normal? The last time I remember that happening was TOR; there was an awful lot of talk about why they weren't showing dungeons and that kind...

So if I'm a great clipper but I don't know how to fucking PoT or whennotto CC mobs as a troller, don't know how to hold hate as a tank or what Dominance is/isn't for, play healer and can't heal worth a crap and let people die while I have a full power bar.. I'm still a good player right...

double post dumbness.. pardon it please

I don't think trees will be a problem ultimately. I noticed that even in areas that were rocky desert, they had a lot of driftwood-like fallen branches and stuff with that petrified forest look. I'm pretty sure most people just run blindly by them because''that doesn't look like I can get logs...

I liked this because it was actually on topic. The rest of that bro-weightlifting/flexing thing was just stupid. Please keep it simple like this for us lurkers. The bloat isn't necessary.

Or that it 'has a high production value'.. snarf. TESO commentary, and the genre itself has devolved into this:

I don't think I've seen one person on this thread say it won't make any money. I'm pretty sure most people are going on about how boring, insipid and uninspired it is as a project. Since I personally haven't played it, I've refrained from calling it so, but just as you categorize two types of...

The original thread is 75 pages long now. They closed that and split to two separate threads; one discussing combat balance as well. Work In Progress: Weapon Mastery (Updated) Work in Progress: Combat Balance

I don't know. Your defense of his quote reads 'terribly'. His quote was fucking stupid for someone in the industry in charge to say. No need to try to read into it when he's had plenty of time to clarify it before and after printing. He didn't bother to do that, so we have to pretty much take...

Yeah, but it sounds like Zenimax took it too a whole new level. They charge $15/month not to play with their friends monthly; GW2 just had them pay once. In all seriousness, is it as bad as it was during GW2 launch? There were times where it took several hours for me to group with friends but...

From what I gather in lurking, he mainly doesn't like the people running it. I think if anyone else was running it, he'd say 'meh average game' and move on. Too be fair, it doesn't look like there's much innovation in this either if that's what you're implying so whether it's this or WS...

Okay, I think it's time for me to warm up the Lifetime. This looks pretty intriguing. One of the biggest annoyances since about six months after launch I had about DCUO was that clipping bullshit. In order to do any kind of damage you have to do that constantly and it just takes a toll on...

This is some odd shit right here between the two posts. So what you're saying is you can 'always' group up with you buds, but you may never actually get toplaywith them because of this phasing, and there's a myriad of loading screens that constantly put you both in a new phase? And this isn't...

So far I must say, this is not what I expected from an alpha because over the years I've gotten jaded. Usually devs just shake their heads and go 'Uh huh' while you're submitting suggestions, and then proceed to continue to bollocks up a game. It's equally weird to see that this isSOElistening...

Honestly, between UT throwing shit torpedoes at this game and you and those other two guys licking it's balls clean, I think I'm just gonna give ESO a wide berth for now. Looking at your post history is super suspect and makes me wonder about your motives but given what you (and UT) both say...

Meh, I like it but it doesn't really change anything. I don't know how people missed the solid shapes before that NOW they need neon flashing on it. It does look better but I don't think I get any 'extra' warning to move. If people weren't moving before, this isn't likely to make them want to...

That can't be etched in stone, can it? Seems like that would only work in an "ideal" setting with "ideal" PvP players. Why do they keep making PvP games with the thought that people will play them exactly like they played 10 years ago?

Go to the EU servers. You don't miss anything, there's a lot more space/claims and it's the same game.

I'm not talking about Huttball and the PvP in SWTOR was simply horrible, but you're still not acknowledging that SWTOR was sold and marketed asa story gamenot PvP focused. It was always about dialogue and choice and Mass Effect style play. They didn't lie about that one bit, and most of the...

Seeing the amount of 'ifs' in your post is trouble, especially if you're trying to explain how something works with regards to PvP. Not a criticism, just a worry. I don't even believe in today's day/age that PvP on this kind of scale is even possible anymore but makers just haven't realized...

They did mention that they were bringing in additional tools over the testing phases, so I'd imagine a few of them are going to be exactly that. It drives me crazy right now only skilled enough to make a halfway circle then I see other people like the page before doing those perfectly...

This, plus anyone still around and playing will have such a lockdown on Cyrodil that if you join the 'winning' faction, you'll be bored out of your skull and if you join the 'losing factions', you'll be hunted like a mutant in X-men. Still, I'm going to give it a F2P shot.. why not? If the...

Man.. first thing I'd do is cockblock that chat. Looks like the same typical 16 year olds that play every PvP game I've been in talking about "American Inventors" and sex just like they are in that. If it's this bad now in beta, imagine what happens if this goes F2P. I can see total domination...

I never thought I'd think it, but SOE is making Trion look like a bunch of reclusive hermits ready to piss on you out of their cardboard boxes if you don't leave them alone. I never thought anyone would match their level of communication, let alone pass it which is what they are actually doing...

I think that's what most of the writers said; it's not horrible it's just.. meh, and that's a problem. Any game that's going to be good in the long run is going to make you want to not stop playing it in alpha/beta, kind of like how the people who are talking about WildStar and Landmark do now...

He can't take a day off; he lives in Detroit. He does that, then the next day he goes to work and there's a line outside his office around the block.

The problem is, Skyrim mmo was made already. It's called Darkfall, and it's better at PvP/RvR than this probably will ever be... without breaking any lore canons.

Oh, I guess I did it the tourist way and stayed in that first little area actually fighting things o.O Never thought about running through as a Level 1 but idk if I could have killed anything once I got through without the souls that they gave you in there. I sure didn't remember any horse...

How do you "technically" have a mount in the intro zone, when the intro zone had no mounts, period? Unless you are counting legs as mounts, there weren't any. You left the intro zones through the rift, and that brought you into the Freemarch and Silverwood zones (6-20). Mathosia (1-6) and...

I only played WoW for about 9 months total off/on, and although it wasn't the game for me one thing that impressed me a lot about it was how responsive and seemingly error-free the controls were. There was instant feedback and 'feel' from what I clicked and what I wanted my character to do...

This is kind of impossible unless you were hacking. At launch, you were in the tutorial area at Level 1. In that zone before you warped through the first 'rift', there weren't any mailboxes and that was the only way to collect your soon-to-be copypasta reskinned turtle. I remember this...

In retro, I actually liked Rift during their last few betas. It was extremely intense with all the invasions but once it launched, the game started to suck and then I thought it was because maybe I had gotten burned out on mmos. I later realized I hadn't burned out; Rift was just actually not as...

This makes no sense at all. You know, you don't usually list what you have planned after launch as part of your.. launch. Why would they say it's going to have combat on the Founder's page when, like they said, they weren't sure if they were going to be able to fit it in? Companies don't...
