Every game I listed PvP was a major part of the game, and by your definition, any MMO that isn't WoW is a tiny niche game? And even WoW continually goes back and forth on how much gear affects PvP. So what game ARE you talking about?

PvP is pretty fun so far in SoD... Anyway, your point is invalid. DAoC, SWG, EVE, UO, ArcheAge, arguably AION, even Lineage, none of these match your description. Warhammer Online was almost great if Mythic hadn't fucked up a few small things that ruined the whole game (like a really shitty...

A PvP MMO that resets monthly and awards some tiny amount of persistent progression to the winning faction after every month could work. Basically a month-long game of DOTA. 3-5 factions maybe.

Yes, but at least you're getting feedback when pieces fall off. And that's still way too bullet spongey, there's only 2 parts to shoot off... I'm talking like giant bosses with lots of things to shoot off. Weapons, 'eyes' that make it worse at aiming, etc. Also adds, many whelps.

Why can't they just make bosses that you've gotta shot lots of different parts off of? Armor plates, eyeballs, weapons, etc. Make it like HZD where you can shoot off their weapons and use them as heavy weapons until they run out of ammo.

Yeah, I'm expecting STV to be super entertaining.

WHY

This was a good trade but I should have bought a lot fucking more.

What speed though?

Christmas trips to Tahiti require some profit taking.

Any Alliance stealthers on Lone Wolf? Come to Hillsbrad and hang out with me. I have a secret mission should you choose to accept it.

The non-welfare states could just buy it from Canada. Or Venezuela or Colombia if they ever get their act together and start producing like they used to. People don't realize the whole reason gas isn't basically free in North America is because Venezuela and Colombia have had their output drop...

(I hate snow.)

'end game activities' but doesn't say anything about a new raid at 60, or a new level 60 pvp event. It'd suck if SoD just turns back into classic vanilla content after level 40.

I just won the big annual company award, which comes with a sizeable bonus, and now my manager is very transparently lowkey mad and wants to know who nominated me. "As your manager, I'd be very interested in knowing who nominated you. If you find out, please tell me right away. I will be...

Yeah my rogue is geared, my warrior is on her way, and I'm already trying to figure out if I want to make a paladin or hunter.

I went with 20 year because I would have been totally happy getting my ~5.3% for the life of the bond, with the potential for a big short term upside that ended up materializing.

Buying 5k in 20 yr bonds instead of 50k is my biggest goof of the year:

Any class can carry the flag. Nearly every class has some advantage. Even mages, the worst carriers, have Blink and Frost N Yes, this is the point. The point is that you shouldn't win nearly every time, that more games will actually be competitive games where the outcome isn't determined...

What part of capped progression don't you get? There's no prize you're chasing here. Regardless, if you let people queue as a group of 5, you're still going to roll people, get a bunch of kills and honor. But the game itself will be competitive. Everyone will end up having less non-games.

What extra rewards? Honor is capped at R3 right now lol, what do you want? Being able to get 0-3 in faster than 1 reset? Twice as many WSG marks of honor for playing in the 10v10 queue? Fuck it, sure, but you actually won't have much fun doing that, and will progress slower. 5-person cap is...

Look, I've done the elite pvp thing in DAoC and in WoW many times over. R13 in vanilla, glad, high rated RGBs, etc. For the overall capped progression, semi-casual vibe of SoD it is the best compromise. What is the point of try-harding when you can cap ranks in single week? Also, your point...

Very-geared Rogue offering BFD kicks 1g each on Alliance Lone Wolf, can also be paid in set chest/boots.

Just capping queues at 5 people would solve most of these problems without any kind of complicated solution. Honor ranks are capped by phase, it's not even like there's a big prize to be try-harding for. You can currently cap a char in a single week.

I just think everyone would have more fun if premades were capped at 5 people. People who want to play as a group would still get to play together. Nobody actually wants to manage a 10, 15, or god-forbid 40 person PvP raid, people just feel like they're forced to do it.

Much easier would be to just not let people queue up with more than a group of 5 for any battlegrounds. It's worth trying in SoD, anyway.

Market is basically looking for excuses to go up at this point. I'd say the greed index is high, but I also think that the dollar dropping off its highs is also contributing heavily to equity gains, so this might just be a legit normalization.

It's 8 weeks into a civil war. Nothing is working. No one is going to work. Most Americans are dead from having a lot of guns and not a lot of food. Americans are eating each other because the steady supply of goyslop coming in our ports to feed our fat faces has been cut off. You're...

No other countries consume 25% of the world's resources due to sitting atop a massive global trade network, a trade network that would immediately breakdown and cause mass starvation, further civil disorder, and probably cannibalism. That's what you're missing. Also, there are very few...

6 weeks. But again, at the point where we're in that condition, America IS being actively invaded by our enemies. And it wouldn't matter how 'unified' we are against it when there's less than half of us left. Again, this is all nonsense. Any conflict or catastrophe that's localized to the US...

They don't need to hit our territory. Just cut off America's supply of cheap shitty food, sneakers, and electronic gadgets and sit back eating whatever the Chinese equivalent of popcorn is (probably bugs, almost certainly definitely bugs.)

I leveled rogue first and honestly it felt terrible at low levels compared to warrior or pally. Once you get poisons and Deadly Brew, your damage goes way up, but 10-20 was miserable.

It's all nonsense because of supply chains.

These types of stories are always stupid because they treat America as existing in a vacuum. Any significant shooting war in the US would be immediately met with China instantly re-arranging the global trade order and the complete collapse of either side's economy along with the rest of the...

It was definitely a feature in Supreme Commander but I don't think it was possible in TA.

Well, I have 278k invested, not counting either past or present 401ks, to which I contributed the maximum. But I've got another >180k sitting in savings accounts or SPAXX and another 30k in short-term CDs, just collecting interest. But >60k of what I have invested is in JEPI and also not...

Today was a bad day to have 16k sitting in SPAXX doing nothing and another 150k in my savings account doing nothing.

I've got a guild but they don't always raid, so I can fill in for DPS.

Geared shamans crit people for half their health with Lava Lash lol.

Ashenvale has been hit or miss. The between-battles random PvP on the weekend was fun, with tons of activity in the zone. Most of the time, the actual battle event is just a PvE race. But it does work sometimes. A few times, we accidentally had to play the battle as intended, and that was...
