I think it's the opposite. I don't think mechanical skill difference is that huge (although there is a difference) - I think it's almost all decision making. People are assholes at all levels, though.

In theory, it should be preferable. However, I personally do not like to Duo Queue in ranked. It artificially raises your MMR to compensate, which means if you're not against another duo - you're against higher ranked players. It's not bad all the time, I've had some successes. But I've...

I don't see why they just don't make it flexible up to 40, with a minimum of 10. Make 40-man give the best loot, but don't just force everyone to deal with 40 fuck nuts. And that's the real problem, they're trying to champion the idea of 'difficult' encounters where everyone has to pay...

I can't believe there's been 2 pages of discussion over a troll build.

I think he had his redemption in finding people he truly loved - and people who truly loved him (which he never thought possible). However, I think Richard has been 'dead' for a long time.

Really good interview with Jack Huston. I think he brings up some good points. I know we all loved Harrow and wanted to see him as thesuper gangster hit man, but that's just not who he really was. That's what he became when he thought that was all he could ever amount to after the war - but...

Only specific linked servers, though.

This is why I dislike the mode. I guess I'm just too competitive, but I hate the duo queue that insists on going X champion (who I know will be at a disadvantage if enemy doesn't go a 'fun' pick), and then they do god awful with them and feed relentlessly.

After seeing the difference between my dead server (Shadowsong) and a 'full' server (Stormrage). The overcrowded server has more 'community' now than my server has had since release. I transfered my DK to an overpopulated server during the transfer sale. I hadn't seen anything like that since...

Genre.

Believe it or not, not every can troll a thread 24 hours a day like you. Anyways, I'm absolutely loving the new vision trinkets. Having a perma-ward for the mid lane is very nice...almost verging on too easy, honestly.

Goddamn you are obnoxious.

I'm not talking just normals. I'm talking about non-Pro games. I knew you were going to take that the wrong way. I think the top 5v5 teams can manage without seeing the enemies runes and masteries. So do you analyze them every game? Since it's such a huge advantage? I'm curious.

What the fuck does LCS have to do with normal play? They either look at the stats as soon as the enemy is visible...or not, because as I said - builds are pretty standard for most roles/champions. There's not much cheese going on in LCS. It's not really kept secret considering you can see the...

Rune and Mastery builds are pretty standard, unless you're trying some gimmicky shit. Regardless, you can figure them out the instant you can target them and see their stats. I don't think being able to see it during load screen isthatgame breaking. I have the ability to do it and never do...

This would be the best idea, in my opinion. It seems like it would be much easier to do. I just hope if they decide to upgrade the client they atleast keep it the same size and not go to full screen. In Ranked or in Normals? I wouldn't give a fuck in Normals, but I would be annoyed in Ranked...

Is this game even worth trying out?

Is this confirmed? Seems like they're just upgrading piece by piece. As for Riot's business model, the only thing that bugs me are the retardedly expensive Legendary skins. I realize it's an optional cosmetic item, but I actually want to support Riot and have cool skins...I just don't want to...

Was 4chan, I think.

I'm sure there we lots of people that will enjoy Trove, but it just seems so 'middle of the road' to me. I'm not sure what niche it's supposed to fill exactly. The RPG aspect doesn't seem like it will be robust enough to draw the MMO crowd, and the world building doesn't seem like it will...

I agree. My interest went from pretty high after the FanFaire to basically being dormant, waiting for more information. Landmark sounds neat at the moment, but I never got that much into MineCraft. The evenual goal of building and designing my own MMO world interests me A LOT more than simply...

Supposedly they decided to make EverQuest Next a voxel-based game. Then they saw how much the developers enjoyed building shit. So they decided to make a separate game focused solely on that. It's since been said that it's going to receive nearly all the tools the EQ Next developers are using...

And you know what's going to be the absolute best PR possible for this game? If they get dedicated player testers (like people who throw down $90 for alpha) and then show off all the crazy and cool shit they make over a few weeks/months. That's what is going to get people interested in the game...

Perhaps. But it's fucking MineCraft. I think you guys are really overestimating how critical testing is going to be. There's no quests. There's no NPCs. There's barely any items. It's just a bunch of characters playing with blocks in a baren world. And yet, I'm the one being dismissive...

Nealy every MMO sells testing access or head starts. Alpha specifically? Why does it matter? The terms Alpha and Beta mean practically nothing nowadays. Do you really think there'sthatbig of a difference? PS: I love how smug you're trying to sound.

God forbid someone has a differing opinion. If someone doesn't agree with you SURELY they're being paid to disagree, right? Fuck off. I've agreed they haven't shown enough about the game to entice me to putting down any money on it yet. I still think you guys are fucking retarded for getting...

I still don't get what the difference is between a $90 founder pack that gives in-game items/testing access and a $90 collectors edition that gives early testing access/in-game items. I really don't understand what 'precedent' people think this is setting, since it's been done for quite a while...

1. It's fucking MineCraft with a decent graphics engine and better tools. It's not like we don't know what we're getting. 2. I can't tell if you're serious, but all those games had $60 box prices with $90 collectors editions - not to mention monthly subscription fees. That was their pricing...

This is comical. You realize that all companies, whether it's 1 developer or a corporation - sell things to fund development...right? I also think you're off your rocker if you think theyneedpeople buy these packs for the game to be made. It's just one way they're monetizing their F2P game.

I didn't realize the questions was "Name one game where Alpha access was sold that only meets my specific requirements". Regardless, there's tons of games where paying (through pre-orders, collectors editions, or what have you) gets you testing access. Obviously it was a very popular model...

How about MineCraft, the very game EQNext is based on?

Most people just look at something and decide if they want it or not. I agree there's not enough details to make me jump head first, but I'm not going to come to a forum and whine about it. Not every 'product' is designed for every person. There's probably a lot of people willing to throw...

Well, according to his website, I'm estimated to be around 1880.Which is pretty close to the Season 2 ratings(I'm currently Plat 5). How much logic do you think they apply besides seeing what League/Tier you're in, and how much LP you have?

Even though Arbitrary is coming off as a huge dick, he's absolutely right. There is no way to access your true MMR. Any number you get from a website is just their guesstimate. Doesn't mean it's not close, but it's not theexactnumber.

This just might be the dumbest shit I've ever read on this forum. Nearly every game ever created needs players to purchase things. That's the entire fucking reason that companies create video games.

This is how I see it. There's tons of people who don't really have a game they're playing, and are looking for their next 'fix', thinking this might be it. $100 isn't that much if it keeps them entertained throughout all of alpha and beta. It is still a little bit of a gamble, though.

I agree with this. Landmark would have been fine. At the very least they shouldn't have called it EverQuest Next Landmark, just EverQuest Landmark. By adding the Next, I think they've confused people that they're completely separate games. Yeah, how dare people spend money on something...

I know this is a crazy concept, but some peoplelikebuilding and creating things. Go look at the absolutely crazy shit people build in MineCraft...forabsolutely nothing. And you're surprised that people would want to build shit with the possibility of making money from it or having their...

Well, having more time to become familiar with the tools to create shit that people want right away could also help you make some cash. Not to mention having a head start to collect the resources to make said shit. I'm not sure if real estate will be that important, since I'm assuming there's...
