    I'll probably kick in for early access and some kind of alpha or beta. And not play it much till right before release.

    50/50 IMO, especially if they go the Star Citizen route and inflate the game the more funding they get. How much money did SOE bilk from people for EQN?

    Any guesses on what their kickstarter goal will be? 400k? 1mill? 3mill?

    It depends on how much time it takes to get those ships. If that mining ship is BiS mining ship and it takes 10k hours of farming to get the funds for it, yes it's a p2w move to sell it for $$$. If that mining ship is an intermediate mining ship that you buy, then sell a couple weeks later to...

    Because SC has effectively monetized the desire for an epic space combat flight sim + MMO. I think most people aren't even thinking competitively when they drop $1k on the game. They're not thinking, "Oh many if I drop this much I can be the best pewpewpilot and get an edge on everyone else in...

    They were only camped at their rez shrine in the start before the siege started and at the end when they basically gave up. Between then they would regroup at their tent, then sally out and attack. But we would usually hit their flank as they moved out and chase them to wherever they were going...

    Yesterday we had our first real siege. Right now attacking a defended siege is all but impossible, but The White Order brought the heat and gave it their best effort and we thank them for it. The night began with TWO assaulting the area in front of our base pre-siege However they were...

    Yes. It's what I did for $45 or so. I think I have access to alphas but haven't bothered playing since they initially released the hangar thing. Back then I bought it because I love space combat sims and wanted to help give money to the project and was afraid it wouldn't get enough coverage!!

    I doubt I'll ever push for an epic project again. Maybe if someone else manages it I'll help. Now the only things that are interesting are smallish builds that have some unique features. Once you do a massive, 3 month long project doing a 2+ week build just loses it's luster because you kind of...

    Or you could just play the game and earn the ships ingame instead of paying $250 to skip parts of the game.

    Bondurant, read about the game, there's not much text. Basically it's an open world pvp game with loot on death, and a continuously resetting set of different worlds with different rulesets. Also voxels. MMOs sound like they make complete sense for VR, but I think the opposite is true. MMOs...

    Probably not, it's too niche to be a savior. If you don't like open world PvP, this game won't be for you. And there's a lot more to MMOs than open world pvp.

    That's weird, I just assumed you'd be able to play S42 simultaneously with all the other stuff. Whatever, it doesn't really matter. It sounds like S42 will only take a few days to play through.

    Boxing

    This is the super fight of this generation, but with this timing it's hard to get excited about this. Pacquaio hasn't stopped a fight in 5 years, and Floyd is arguably the best defensive boxer of all time. Grimmlokk is correct, this has all the makings of a snoozer. If this was a few years ago...

    Bill Gates Says AI Will Be As Dangerous as Nukes

    Who says? I'm not a biologist or psychologist, but isn't care just cognition wrapped around a basic chemical reward/punishment system? If we develop an AI with cognition, there's no reason we can't attach it to a similar reward/punishment system.

    So now that we have a general idea of their game engine, combat mechanics, world setup and pvp ideology, what do you think they'll drop in four days besides kickstarter tiers? Do you think they'll have any kind of playable game or a date for a playable game?

    Those of us who played Minecraft know what people can do if they get their hands on a lot of obsidian. For those that don't, obsidian takes a ton of time to destroy and damages your pickaxe. If you go to someone's yard and drop 50 obsidian in it, that obsidian is now a permanent fixture to their...

    I was thinking about scientific dogma earlier. Because it's difficult to prove with 100% certainty the how and why of complex systems in our universe, the human penchant for having a dogmatic and stubborn attachment to our own beliefs can be important because it adds diverse paths to the pursuit...

    I think it'd be more about spec groups or sub groups attacking a target simultaneously. All depends on the game mechanics though. Often the most critical spells in large scale PvP are the ones that developers don't anticipate being prominent.

    We'll see how well FF works during beta, but it's not going to be a problem for us if it exists.
