    Yea doing the no deaths right now - and will do the group comp next go - can't imagine the 1 HP though, that's gonna be tricky. [High armor of the right types, zero heals, lots of one shot kill cards like the 14pter, etc is my only guess but they'll be tricky] And first or second "Bonus Rare"...

    Oh you tricksy people - the campaign doesn't entirely end at CardStock II - it adds "achievement mode"!!!!! Oh God, this is going to be an obsession a long long time.

    That's certainly disappointing if true - and that cover looks damning. Dust 514 has been quite dull from what I've seen. =/

    Is 50 even attainable at current? Or those just hypothetical maxes from the forums? Just beat the Yellow Dragon (Xanthicus or whatever - actually managed him first try... with my warrior kiting him the last few turns at 3 HP until he got a killshot setup, lol) and although there's another...

    Lame - Saturday birthday for me this year, and would make it an odd release date for the industry. Although not impossible. But would really like seeing it have the possibility of being a BDay delivery. (Since Amazon for huge prereleases sometimes gets them there a day early)

    Florida is a shithole

    Gainesville seems OK from what I've seen of it as well - but not shocking as a college town.

    L15 I think was my first "Major Power Token" showing up (which was replacing a "Minor" not adding one) - and yes, 2 range attacks and Step attacks are both huge. Note that Range 1 attacks do get much better with some of the Keep "Dodge" attacks where you get a Free Move most of the time when...

    Well some value is in things like Elven Insight and the like where you can predict their cards - its another reason I don't regret Elves (although I just recently got it at L13 or so) ever. And some cases it just comes down to learning what a mob does by trial and error - the chess piece...

    velk: What level is max? That seems a long ways off from 15 where I'm at in SP currently.

    Don't think they get many more HP in the long run - but the Dwarf skills can be pretty good at damage absorbortion - in contrast elves are mostly mobility and human are flexibility.

    Sonunva - started playing it for a second plat on my PS+ profile rather than my personal one and the damn game is freaking out now half my saves freeze at a random percentage on loading and when I can get it to load one (or restarting the game entirely) I'm getting animation and sound glitches...

    Card Hunter

    I went all elf for the mobility and have not regretted it once - a few less HP is so nice when you're just pulling useless move cards so you can actually kite and/or keep up with them when they're trying to kite you. Won at least a handful with only one member standing and just kiting until...

    Lenas: It works great in an ideal situation, but with ANY and I mean ANY interference the quality drops to shit. Even my wife's PS3 that has to use WiFi (from lack of hardwire spots since I don't want to daisy chain routers) which is literally 4 feet away from the router itself gets a...

    I took that as being year 1-2 type stuff though - when his brother was trying to be the good guy and he was "fuck it, I'm surviving over all else" - Y1-2 post characterization stuff not Y3-19ish where he was a complete dick, clearly.

    Internal code? Possible but unlikely. Honestly the most likely possibility to me is the default WiFi available on PS3 versus the only option without adapter on 360 being wired ethernet - since on top of the WiFi being worse than Ethernet in general specifically the PS3 WiFi is poor. So the...

    Their netcode might have been bad in 2009 - but it's at least as good if not better for me with FIOS (PS3) and Cable (PS3/360). [Comparing against 360 netcode in 2011 largely - additionally, not counting Tuesdays when the store changes hit - that's always got a couple hours of wonkiness - but...

    PS3 and PC had crossplatform multiplayer on one or two titles where developers bothered with it - from what I've heard in the past (although it could change with XBOne) X360 had a hardset rule that developers were disallowed from crossplatform multiplayer however.

    You can rename them at the Keep with the little "stylus" icon next to their name if you're JUST renaming someone - if not when you got to the tavern to hire replacements (can't do until you have all 3 of the originals bought) you can select a name while you're hiring. [10G per or something like...

    Seems pretty obvious branching into the TV on demand bit like speculated in the article - after all they've already got the other aspects of "TV" covered with their film buy/rent deal. Only other possibility is them going head to head with XBoxOne on the "enhanced TV" bullshit - but I'd put...

    On both points, absolutely accurate amongst other reasons I wish I could bring myself to replace them - unfortunately there's so much baggage to changing them, knowing I'd reduce home value, knowing that my mother will be annoying about it when she visits for ruining "her" home, etc. (We bought...

    They're in cabinets about 3-4 ft up and our cats enjoy pushing things. Carpet would have at least two layers to break the fall without damage.

    Same with my primary system spot - where we'd eventually have our second (the wife's TV/PS3 setup area - since there's nothing she wants early on PS4 we'll wait a year or whatever for hers) however is friendly to a vertical stand - don't use it right now since the Slim Vertical stands aren't for...

    Interesting they sent them a stand and it looking so basic - wonder if it's an auto-inclusion now instead of a stupid extra purchase.

    LOL Chris - it is pretty damn addictive - I'm lucky to be brickwalling a bit on the PVE side to keep me slowed down though.

    Yea, we did PS1 era, so pretty sure she's done the whole set - skipped PS2 era with the whole MMO craziness. (Xenogears we've done as well as Lunar not 100% sure on Grandia not ringing bells) And on Argarest we have it, but really found the gameplay unpalatable (1 I think)
