I thought it could go either way. Many game worlds are randomly generated or made with really rough tools and filled in. The line between hand built and auto generated can get thin and blurry.

You had your chance to make a solid prediction. And you made a terrible one. Either way you're the prototypical person that mkopec is talking about here. Talked shit for a year about how bad Xbones would fail and here we are and they're fine.

What was your sales prediction for the contest?

I agree that people here should fund this game but you're creating a false dichotomy between WoW clones like TESO and Pantheon. Also if people believe this game, if funded, would produce a poor entry into the 'old school MMO' genre they should be afraid that it would poison the well for several...

Are you talking about the zone connection between North Qeynos and Qeynos Hills?

TEXT!! POST!

It's going to be tough for my rig to take all that cloud computing that was going on in EA servers.

I'm not a huge lore guy but yeah the collection of fallen planes colliding together in an earthquake doesn't really grab me. Personally I'd prefer my MMOs start out pretty grounded with a few blips of irregularity tucked away. If crazy shit is happening all the time I'm afraid my fairly normal...

The one thing I never got is why stretch goals are linear. I get that the price difference between the previous goal isn't necessarily the estimated cost but if UI Mod functionality was near 200k and gnomes were 200k who would pick gnomes over UI? Same with player housing vs mobile app. I...

I agree with this 100%, and would add that it needs a section update like: "How will Pantheon be different from other MMOs?" I know personally I only have enough desire and time to get invested in one MMO every year or two, and I need to be re-assured that the next MMO I play is...

GW2 tried soooo hard to get it right even to the point of giving underwater breathing, super fast swimming, crystal clear underwater vision and OP underwater abilities. But it was still a hassle. There's just nothing that underwater combat brings to the table.

KS looks pretty good. I'll throw $45 at it. You guys talking about how the pledges won't add up to the funded amount are forgetting they can add more and that having a lowish number gives a sense of scarcity.

What izo said.

It all depends on the info that comes out. Right now there's a huge derth of good MMOs and the current MMO on the forefront (TESO) is an expensive disaster waiting to happen. People in general are pretty tired of the WoW clones that have come out. In general the gaming scene is pretty ripe for a...

I get the feeling that the shakeup by the end of the books will be enough that Robb making Jon an heir won't be as big of an impact as say, Jon being azor ahai, being able to ride dragons, or generally doing whatever heroic shit he does if GRRM revives him like we expect.

Randomized timers means camping mobs and having tracking classes parked everywhere, forget that. I doubt I'd ever PVE raid again but if I did my preference would be to have weekly resetting instances for 75% of the mobs and the other 25% be outdoor mobs that respawned at set times (preferably...

3 active infraction points. All infractions on this forum expire. Some forums the infractions never expire, I still have infraction points on the Bethesda forums for asking if someone took a really low quality picture with their butthole.

I think you guys explored holiday events enough, lol. For a new user? We're already there. For a user who has spent a few hours or days in a game? No where close. First time minecraft users will enjoy the rolling outdoor hills, the various types of trees, the deep caverns, mines and chasms...

He was being prophetic. Consider it fulfilled.

A couple people make comment about holidays in MMOs and you get stuck on stupid. You've chosen your hill to die on.

Keep this shit out of here.

Only if you enjoy exploring.

And I've been making fun of him for it for one week less than a year.

I pretty much ignore all the holiday shit as much as possible but there's no question that many people like it. Personally I think it's like most other stuff, worth it when done well, awful when not.

"Banned By Next Week"

CES 2014: The New Oculus Rift and Its Creator - Popular Mechanics Cool interview. would love to see the classroom of the medical school that bought 20 rift DK1s for training.

I know I stream fights because I'm cheap and it's so easy. If you streamed UFC 168 (one of the best cards of the year from a big fight perspective) then you'd probably stream anything. I think the UFC wants to have an army of lower shows on a huge variety of networks and media and have them...

PVP and solo combat was good. The "Hey we're 2-50 guys doing the same quest together for the next 5 minutes" combat was pretty good too in that the mob count scaled. The group PVE was really, really bad. Bring back the trinity. Someone should compile a list of all the reasons TESO sucks and...

lol @ charging people to make content and use player made content. It'd be like if Bethesda made you pay piecemeal for their construction kit and had steamworks charge you per mod.

joking: All social mobs, when they have LOS to a KOS intruder should ring a bell and the entire group should band together.

I remember raids in eq being teams of clerics warriors rogues and the top one or two of every other class while everyone else road coattails.

Why is he memorizing a periodic table?

As always you make excellent points. I was more speaking to raids in regard to all classes being able to DPS.

Popsicle, sober up or get out.

Rift shouldn't be a priority at this stage.

I wouldn't say it's haggling as much as it is getting everything in order. Being a very new company with no released product and mass producing consumer electronics that are bleeding edge in many ways is basically unheard of. If you look at all the top consumer electronics over the last decade...

Not as well as a healer/tank/utility should be able to DPS, no. DPS is more ubiquitous so all classes should be able to do it at least poorly. DPS classes shouldn't be able to universally heal, tank, CC and debuff.
