    Lol so it takes 75 days to break even on a workshop now? Yikes.

    Sent my party on a caravan to make some cash, now it's been a while and I can't figure out how to get them back lol.

    It works. Eventually you'll see the icon is a brighter color and it will work. It seems like they need to be in your party as prisoners for a certain length of time before they submit to joining you. In my experience the better they are the longer it takes.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    At first I was planning to go with a 2h build but I found it very challenging even in the intro practice area, the mouse to directional block felt very unresponsive. Ended up going sword and board which seems great. I had a ton of crashing bugs but I started a new campaign and haven’t crashed...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I saw someone asked how to access the codex or whatever. It appears to be the N key while on campaign map. Only way to find nobles for this folly quest. Also apparently if you press R during character creation you can play as a baby. Given the hitboxes it’s probably like playing Oddjob in...

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I got hooked on arena tournaments, just did basically a world tour and gained over 120 renown from doing so many. Also gained 20k and a bunch of pretty good items in the process. 10/10 would fight in the arena again.

    It's super different, even in mass combat you primarily control one person and issue commands where you can to your unit.

    In a city go to the tavern district and you can sell them. Otherwise you can recruit them after they've been with you a while.

    I wish I could load directly from combat so I didn't have to exit to the main menu to reload my save every time I get wrecked in battle.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    I bought it, it's fun and more polished than Warband. Bottom line so far is if you enjoyed the first you'll enjoy the second. My biggest gripe is I crash a LOT. Like a little bit more than once per hour so far. Edit: Crashed for a fourth time in the past like 30 minutes now. Every time I...

    Been watching some streams and it looks pretty good! I am very tempted to DL it but I’ve already preordered RE3 Remake for this Friday. Fml.

    Nioh 2 (PS4 (PC in November?:emoji_nose:

    This game has been really fun to watch but I got bored before I beat the original. In the beginning I loved it because it felt like Dark Souls and that's what I was looking for, but by mid game it felt more like I was playing Diablo. How's this compare to the first one for those of you playing...

    Yeah it was Jchan who did the server select queue and the AFK kick back for RF/LJ launch.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    The goal of Project Faerthale was to demonstrate a complete vertical slice of the game. So in the several zones which are part of the project they will supposedly have content from character creation, to newbie zones, quests, cities, dungeons and finally a high end “raid” zone. I think if it as...

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    Ideal server stats: Active GMs/CSR that know EQ just well enough to detect botting, warping, far taunting etc and then ban accounts associated with that activity. Total pipe dream.

    Good to see a few new zones with original (non unity store) assets. I assume we'll see some more lighting passes but overall it looked pretty nice. Climate effects during the encounter shown around 50-55 mins looked pretty cool.

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    The differences are practically innumerable but suffice to say ordinary content is far easier at the group level. Raid content is more challenging in the post 2015 era when TLP raid mobs boast a series of buffs MoTM, MoTOW, and PoTM. Nothing on TLPs is as contested as P99 because of...

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    Looking at the old websites, Phinny actually still maintained 22 active raiding guilds clearing PoTime even when Agnarr had launched and was fielding 17 of its own raiding guilds. EQ Progression as a whole during 2016-2018 had an incredibly healthy population. There was a moment in time where...

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    The craziest thing about the massive Phinny population was that it was that large even while RF and LJ maintained a few hundred additional players a piece. It may have been the high water mark for TLP as a whole. I believe I recall DBG saying Phinigel was their most popular server ever, and...

    Not sure if you played on Phinny but they had 22 raiding guilds during Luclin. 21 of them cleared VT in era.

    FTE = First to Engage. I've seen the term floating around some TLP / P99 stuff. MDD I've only ever seen in the context of Pantheon discussion. EQ players would call MDD a DPS Race instead.

    Doesn’t Joppa answer this question in the Dev round table you linked? I believe he says MDD for the majority of content, FTE for raid content. Am I missing something?

    It's all good, by internet standards this is just giving people shit, can't take it personally. I can agree with this for sure. I feel like over the last year they haven't shown us much of anything for progress. On their last interview they said they were going to be showing off new...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    No one is saying it's done. I don't think it's going to be done for years. But the core gameplay is there. Every class planned for launch has been seen. It's not core features that appear to be absent it's quantity of content, animations, art assets. This is how "Core Mechanics" are defined in...

    In May of 2018 their CM stated they had about 1,000 people in Pre-Alpha testing. I can’t control whether or not people believe that number, but in any event it’s safe to assume the number of Pre-Alpha tier backers has only grown in the ensuing 21 months.

    I get it, you can never trust a company completely because it's always in their best interest to oversell a product, and I am not here advocating that any of you (us?) start tossing money at them, but what I am saying is that the core gameplay of Pantheon is demonstrably done and has been...

    What does this even mean? What do you consider "core", how does one hobble mechanics together with "crazy glue code", what insight have you had into the codebase of Pantheon vs other major MMO's who do not "hobble together" their mechanics?

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    There is no way the game is almost ready imho. The core game is mostly done (I think) but I think it's going to take them a long time to produce enough content (i.e.zones, dungeons, quests, raids) to release.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    The core of the game is done dude, you can see pretty much exactly what gameplay looks like on any of their streams and it has changed very little in the last two years. The stuff we see them working on now is primarily additional content, new zones, enemies, quests etc. If you just wanted a...

    Resident Evil 3 Remake (April 2020)

    Kind of surprising that this game is only 2.5 months away and we haven’t seen more gameplay or another trailer. By this point RE2 had a ton of trailers and even extended gameplay segments revealed.

    Not sure what the deal is w/ unity multiplayer and how it's impacted Pantheon. A while back they did a stream which was during a live testing session (open to those with the appropriate backing tiers) where there was (I believe) in the range of 120 people online between 3 zones. Unfortunately I...

    Some people were discussing whether it was a Tyrant (Mr. X style) or Nemesis chasing Jill in the trailer. I fucked with the lighting in some screenshots of the trailer to try to get a better look. Seems like they straight up didn’t populate his head in the trailer so we couldn’t check him out...

    I never got into RE4 and don’t really understand why it’s so loved. It always seemed to me like it was the beginning of the turn to action focused gameplay and really nonsense plot that became the core of 5 and 6 and kind of ruined the series for many years. Am I being unfair here? 1-3 were...

    I just didn't respond to your PM because I had already answered your question in the old Amtrak thread where I listed all the active Selo guilds for you. Glad you joined, and hope you enjoy the server, you're joining at a good time.
