The ugly part of corporate America is the MBA Manager in Finance who makes decisions based on spreadsheets from trending data, and could give a shit less about your subjective ideas of what should be done. Fuck you, you dirty artist. Give me proven winners and sustained guaranteed Madden and...

Does leveling suck there? I'm tempted to play again, but unlike 10 years ago when I rushed to 50 in 3 weeks, I have no desire to grind a 50 out at legacy experience rates for EMU shard.

A better question right now would be is the 2013 release written in stone? Based on the feedback and ignoring Ut's trolling I don't see anyway this product ships decently in six months or less.

I put my concerns above. I don't care if they were going for the White Supremacist angle versus Indian as so much of that area is overlapping Asian and Ind-European, but I did have some qualms. If you watched the movie The Wrath of Khan, Khan's son and most of his crew were Anglo. It fits...

I really enjoyed this, and thought the links to the original series were great.

I think an MMO needs to be designed from the outset not to segregate based on levels. We're pretty much used to two games: the levelquest one, and the 'endgame' <fuck Elder Game term in the ass>. The level one is mildly amusing but is just to get us to the meat and potatoes, which is the endgame...

Sorry if this was addressed, TESOTESTER, but what I'd like to know is how this game differs from previous MMOs, and what about it would appeal to us. Less quests are good, but only if the quality is better and they are fun. As an Elder Scrolls fan, the best part of the game was the open ended...

Yeah, it's an action RPG. It's fluffy light fun. I disagree though and I think it'd be worth a box price, personally. I'm still playing it which is better than a lot of recent MMOs. In my opinion this game is far more fun than D3 and is a great distraction. I don't play action RPG hardcore...

I'd sure want to do a podcast with you if I were from the TESO team! My whole initial point with Ut was simply that I enjoyed feedback from the various dev teams, and even the PR shills. It added a dimension to FOH that isn't here. I'd imagine if I ran a junkies type network I'd want to...

Limited feedback is better than none. After the way you've raked TESO across the coals here, I can imagine no developer from that game would fathom posting here. Slamming a game incessantly and insulting the crew creating it while it's not even in beta nonstop probably isn't creating an...

Utnayan is straight forward, but he's probably a big reason no devs outside of Hartsman will likely ever post on these forums, which is too bad. Speaking of Hartsman, maybe they can toss him on TESO after release for a bag of money.

Freedom means less control which means less capability to sell stuff or lock down things. I think Neverwinter is a great step in the direction of freeing players and having them add content. It certainly isn't a completely open dynamic world, but it's allowing for player content. The...

The game is in open beta, and isn't even a release candidate. I'm sure a lot will change. I'm enjoying the Foundry quests and just the environment in the game. I'm only in my teens, but I do work during the day and can't do 12 hours of gaming a day, generally, anymore. I'm also not reading too...

I have no plans to pay a subscription ever again, unless something completely blows me away. I don't mind throwing a few dollars for transactions, and I like the direction GW2 and Rift have gone. SWTOR, not so much. I'm still playing it occasionally but it's a bit too tedious without a sub and...

I like the Cleric so far. It seems very AD&Dish and not as much of a pure healer as some MMOs tend to make them. It seems there are a ton of new clerics on Mindflayer. Every other person shouting is one. I think I'll mess around with a Guardian Warrior or Wizard on one of the other two...

http://www.reddit.com/r/Neverwinter/...y_neverwinter/ This is working remarkably well for me, if anyone else wants to mess around with a 360 Controller ingame

Every time I want to jump in and defend War in this thread, my memories of Paul Barnett and desire to curbstomp him prevent me from doing so. I did like PQs and the class structure. It's too bad Climax didn't release their Warhammer game, and we got the watered down PG-13 EA-Mythic version...

I played a few hours this weekend and was pleasantly surprised. The game looks great, combat is fun, and it has an AD&D feel to it. I just wish there were a few more classes available.

I was an AMD fanboy until the I upgraded to my i5 2500K a few years ago, as well. Heck, I haven't even overclocked my 2500k just because I really don't need to since it crushes any game with CPU left over. I did crank it up to 4.0 but it didn't do much FPS wise for anything so I backed it down...

My thoughts exactly.

I actually played GW2 for more than two months and it had no sub, so I thought it was decent. That beats anything else and most WOW expansions over the last few years. I like a lot of the features. but I really hate the graphics, and the videos aren't appealing to me. WOWs graphics were...

To be fair, how much extra revenue did the free Diablo 3 with a one year sub bring in? I'm not sure they have enough gimmicks to really keep WOWs subs that high, especially since D3 is not as popular as D2 was in it's heyday. All those subs should be ending this month. I'd guess ~80% of their...

In regards to stealth, I had zero problems with stealthers on Percival because I always ran in a full group. I just really do not like pure invisibility as a stealth design. I'd prefer something akin to how it's done in the Thief series, or Guild Wars 2, or LoL. I'd prefer a thief/assassin class...

Wasn't Itz just commenting last week how they are back at 10M? I'd like to know how many of those subs are NA, and how many Asian cheapies, too. I'm amazed D3 is still selling that well. Blizz doesn't appear to be hurting but I'm curious what their strategy will be to try and keep some of their...

Most recent one for me was Second Hand Lions, which I watched on video. Not spoiling it, though. It's also amusing as you can see Michael Caine try and pull off a Texas accent.

I'd vote for designing the game better at the macro level. I'd also prefer if they used factions with incentives with more open areas vs hard coding sides. Regardless of class balance, permanent invisibility in my opinion is a dumb design. It was less of an issue due to people running radar...

A good organized force will do just that. Unless it's influenced by a ton of shitty CC spells that screw up the fight and make it more about cooldowns then tactics. I'd prefer to have that fight be determined by organization and communications, instead of cheesy abilities. After the first...

Justifying the OP nature of PVP classes getting invisibility based on strategic design does not change the fact it worked poorly in DAOC. Yes, it wasn't as terrible as is being mentioned, but a big reason it wasn't was due to the gank groups running around with radar clearing them out. Since...

Yeah, but I wonder if that fight was worth it. They won a war for a market that will eventually be completely replaced by streaming. The thing I think Sony should do now is get in bed with Valve and leverage Steam. I think Steam is looking to branch away from PCs, and the new PS would be a good...

I'd take the U in the 80s to beat your 2001 team, although its tough to argue with the players on the 01 team. Tom Osbourne's 95 Nebraska team was probably as scary a college team as I can remember, with Ahman Green and Lawrence Phillips and just a massive line. I still remember the Orange Bowl...

Elder game is a terrible term. Why do we need to change endgame? Sounds like some focus group bullshit.

While I agree with this, I'd say the speed and coaching of the SEC is far closer to the NFL than many other conferences. I think Smith had great college stats and he does possess an NFL caliber arm. I think the scouting reports are a cause for concern, but it doesn't seem too far away from...

He wasn't exactly playing an SEC schedule, so it's hard to say how he'll do. The scouting reports knocked his reading Ds. Read that how you will. You get underthrown balls in the NFL because your window is shorter and the Ds are far more complex. How many dudes are anywhere near him in that...

Yep. Even Tebow could make that throw. The knock on Gino is his stats are padded as often he'd throw a five yard out and Austin would turn it into a homerun. I have no idea how he'll do as an NFL QB, but the odds are already stacked against him due to going to the Jets. The more I review the...

As accurate as Smith was over the last year for the 49ers, and as good a QB coach as Andy Reid seems to be, I don't think that'll be too tough to do. Reid never seemed to be able to pound the rock in Philly. I'll be surprised if he can in KC. The AFC West should be interesting this year. It's...

Amen. It's high time MMOs were living, breathing worlds with economies that have change and real supply and demand, instead of the static respawn laden treadmills that currently exist.

I agree invisibility as a 'stealth mechanism' is a poor design. I do think there's a place for stealth, though, as long as it's tactical and there are plenty of counters. I'm not sure the CU design ideas are going to work, but I'll approach it with an open mind. I think GW2 so far has done the...

TERA blows it away in every way.

You can't really add CFL and NFL stats. The CFL to me closer to the SEC than the NFL amd geared for winging it. Moon was a stud, though, but he did benefit from the pass happy CFL and playing in the 'chuck and duck' offense. The more I read and watch, the more I think the Bills made the right...

I'm intrigued by CU, but you'll not get any arguments from me regarding Kickstarter and it's nefarious nature. http://www.rerolled.org/showthread.p...ter#post151838
