    I have that shit happen to me a lot, one guy C4'd my tank then my max, just asshole TKer. I had the whole platoon /kick then report him. Not much else you can do at that point, weapons lock is extremely forgiving (unless you're a max in a Bio Dome fight )

    The roadkills hitbox is buggy as hell. You need to aim where they're going to be, or squish that sniper while he stands still. This is why it's 10x easier to get friendly roadkills at 2 MPH, then run over an enemy at 100MPH aaand it doesnt kill them ;\

    The Secret World

    Was this the quest you need to do to rank up your faction...rank? I got stuck here too, then switched to AR/Fist, using full fist heals. I'm probably doing it wrong, but kiting that last mob around the statue and healing to full made it easy, didn't even need to use a potion. When I first did...

    Did they ever fix the VR? When it first came out, I bought a few of each grenade type to try it out, and it ended up unlocking all of them for me for free, so I basically got revive grenades for free. I don't know if that still works :P Max engie repair tool is sweet. Not only because...

    It's to prevent 2 people from farming free points for too long, or cert padding, whatever. I think it's a point amount, not time. So if you drop an ammo pack in a zerg, it'll stop giving you points much faster. This happens to me a lot. Notice when you first click to put the ammo or turret...

    I live on an island, and picked the wrong coast server, so with a constant 200-400ms ping, I've learned the only way I can win 1v1 is to play cheap as hell. One hit kills are your friend. I run engineer with the under-barrel grenade launcher. Even with shitty lag I can pop out, toss a grenade...

    The 'combat' they showed at the end was crap, but I'm willing to give that a pass for now. Especially watching stuff spawn/despawn then just sit there. For release, I hope fights are actually difficult, and not a spamming AE fest that WoW 'dungeons' were. The rest of the presentation was...

    Not sure if troll, but I'll respond with: All the other military branches have no restrictions on Tuition Assistance. I'm in the only branch that does. Right now the pendulum is swinging against personnel, they're trying to get rid of folks and reduce benefits. Hope it swings the other way...

    I wish to thank all you forum posters for the 30 pages of entertainment; I had to step out for a few hours and came back and read all the reactions. Sounds like it was kind of like watching the 'boom...goes...the dynamite' sportscaster disaster kid, funny but in an uncomfortable way.

    Close! Kodiak, AK. It does remind me of Maine sometimes though. It's weird seeing people I work with all the time on TV, and we give a particularly hard time to a certain rescue swimmer. http://www.weather.com/tv/tvshows/coast-guard-alaska Yup. I've seen that before too. I wonder, with...

    They needed a profile pic to do my employee marks (USCG 18 years here!), so I did the Bond villain look as a joke. I swear to god this is not photoshopped. The lighting looks too perfect, and the cat looks stuffed. It's my wifes cat, that white fur gets everywhere. Bonus points if you can...

    eeexcept there's still horrendous culling in even slightly massive PS2 battles. So EQNext will still use this engine? They mention 'working on it some', but it is still DX9, and not optimized very well. Apples and oranges and all that, but recent games (ie Bioshock Infinite) tend to use my...

    As is most everyone who played EQ1, my friend! I treated it as an actual RPG-MMO, and definitely put in the hours compared to the 'MMOs' that followed (ie playing through Secret World currently, treating it as a single player game, no interest in even duoing w/ wifey) As far as F2P, I...

    I never got the mentality behind the nerfs to harmless fun. The actual straw that broke my camel's subscription to WoW was when they nerfed that goblin quest globe thingy that would transform you into a random race. Fun is not allowed, your illusion poofs now as soon as you unequip it! Stupid...

    The only real GM interaction I had in EQ was 1) An un-paid guide thinking we were exploiting by fighting dorfs on their roofs in Kaladim (wrong, they were right there with us HITTING US BACK), and 2) The Magician BEST OF THE BEST tournament, was anyone else in one of these? Good times, I won...

    For me it's not a true PVP experience until I'm ganked and corpse camped by some invisible class who is 30 levels above me, and still insists on sapping me for max duration, then still opens with a stun.

    Man that's classic. I did love the night cycles in that game, seeing the trees at night with the weird light sourcing (around 2:28) brought back memories.

    Are you running in DX11? This game actually runs smooth for me, using my 2 GTX580s about 60% each give or take, for 60fps outside up to 110s inside. One thing I did a while back was fix my processor speed, most MMOS are processor heavy. I got lazy and instead of building my PC I bought...

    I'm enjoying the single player experience. I did que up for the first dungeon (Solomon I think?), got in a group and had no clue how to get there, and noone responded lol. But I love the atmosphere, and the quests are intriguing. I love the creepy kids tree house in the middle of a dark...

    For loot, it still sucks. In fact, I can't name one piece of loot during my trip to 80. It was all sanitized, database friendly, formula-obeying mediocre loot. There's *some* WvW progression now in the form of a sanitized Realm Rank like system, but it's really just like +.00000001%...

    Purely by accident, I managed to turn subtitles on. I never found it in options, but I think I hit square during a cutscene. I need them in video games, because there's *always* an NPC that starts talking at 1000 meters away, and even with headphones I can't make out that shit.
