And that's the goal here again. I'm pretty sure the numbers of people that are doing heroic randoms and LFR is steadily dropping, to the point where it will soon become problematic for the queue times. Plus, of course, the ones that queue are the ones who actually need it, so they're...

Woups.

For reference, Pluto is 5.5 light hour from the sun, i.e. 20k light seconds (*edit* which is less than 200k). 2 million km is about 7 light seconds. 2million km still gives you plenty of stuff to do, the average distance between asteroids larger than 100m in the solar system's belt is around...

No. They have Risen!

They don't succeed because of a single guy. However, they can fail because of one. It's the problem of leadership; you can't do much if you haven't the troops, but you WONT do much if you haven't the leader(s). A good leader will find the right guys to execute the VisionT. A bad leader will push...

Ken White of Popehat always wins.

Especially before it's release.

The gaming world has changed, and WoW faces competition for gaming time more than it did 10 years ago. Plus, WE changed as well. We're not the players we were 10 years ago. My F&F guild has shrunk again to non-sustainable size (we can't field an all-guild dungeon group except very...

Sounds like a plan. They do need to introduce new enemies, though. The Burning Legion keeps bringing the same troops we've always seen. We need some new twisted Old God nightmarish abominations. (I was just reading a preview of the horror-themed last MtG expansion) After Legion?

Smed isn't there anymore. No one to bail Brad this time...

At this point, is anyone really putting money in there to "help"? Instead, of, you know, buy some additional virtual spaceships for their collection because "oooh, shiny"?

Because one of the main uses of ilvl is to allow you to compensate for other "problems" in general gameplay. Like not being up to mythic-level insta reaction coupled with specialized addons. If you remove this variable, then either the mythic-level guilds roflstomp their way thru, or the...

Nope. Back when I was in the industry at the turn of the century, it was the 3 3rd rule: dev get 1/3, publisher 1/3 and retail/wholesalers 1/3. Then publisher would eat marketing costs and have most of the rest as profit, and retail would eat discount sales and kickbacks and whatnot, and have...

Well, well, there seems the number/progression of normal mode raiders was hit a lot more than expected by the summer:Normal mode mechanic nerfs inc!

Can't beat that entertainment for the price. Notably if you didn't even try to crowdfund this (my brain keeps inventing crowdfungi for this... why?)

I think I said it before, but I'll say it again. At this point, if you're tagged "Early Access", it's an automatic click on the "not interested, don't ever show me this again" box on Steam. If you go thru Early Access, you're probably a POS. If I'm missing on the next coming of gaming Jesus...

The problem with reducing the size of a raid is that, once you're down to 10, it's very difficult to balance stuff. With 20, you can tune stuff with the expectation that there's one of every class, one of every buff, plus competent players. If you're at 10, that's no longer true: there are 11...

At the moment, we're about at 6 steady players, with maybe 8 on raid nights. Sometimes. We're not even trying to recruit PUGs to fill up the ranks, we're probably going to go the "find a compatible guild and merge" route like during LK. The previous hiatus in MoP wasn't has harsh as this one...

The problem of the Unity asset store (or any asset store) is that you end up with no style. You don't have a personal style, you have a generic type of look. Your in-game screenshots are not immediately recognizable as "this comes from XXX" (at least if you turn off your UI, which I assume would...

You know WoW is between expansions when people start getting over furious on the slightest non-existent games (see also Star Citizen thread).

It's a common theme. Most game-changing companies are headed by people you really don't want to work for (but end up working because they DO change things).

Life of leisure, man. Life of leisure. First the Porsche, then, the golf clubs... (well, as long as the Porsche doesn't have a Defeat Device. CEO is replacing the main VW group one)

Best mumble bit was "ok, husband's mike is shot so I'm switching to auto talk so he can speak". Then you get all the best comments on the other raider's performance...

I'd be very careful. The elementalist looked like it would be a good healer, and... well, it wasn't.

Rythlock still owns.

Run LFR. LFR is basically intro with all the punishing mechanic disabled, notably the 2-tanks requirements. All bosses are a bit better with two tanks, but all the mechanics that require swapping and the like are disabled/survivable. After a couple runs, you'll have a better idea on how the...

Why have a jumping puzzle when you can havean invisible bridge next to a fake one?

And I can remember when the level 3 Trading Outpost required THREE exalted reps (which was intended to have it only be useful for alts).

Yup. Unless you're in a very active guild and pushing some content (be it Mythic or even Heroic), it's basically "complete achieves and fill collections" time. I still haven't finished the full archeology base. Because, for some reason, any Pristine artefact counts as "you've solved that...

Well, if the legal status ofthisis clarified, goodbye asset store purchases for a while!

Post-holiday plus the expansion announces means that we have 6 raiders at the moment. Which is the lowest we ever went to in 10 years. And we're not even raiding mythic...

I was probably unsub and away from WoW at that time... dammit!

Yea, but favorite is account-wide, right? I pick mounts based on race/class of the character (plus, you get the oddities like flight form and plainsrun... sorry, running wild). Can't win all.

I was trying to figure out which bug mount was in Draenor when I suddenly twigged on the Tol'vir crate smuggling with that arrakoa. Same thing here, except I'm trying to get the crawling hand (lucky me got the Ultramarine during Cata).

This really nails it. (ok, it took me a few times before I remembered "oops, need to switch mount on hotbar to a flying one now")

New Game Experience. Basically they "streamlined" stuff, like specializations and the like. The progression is more obvious, but it lacks flexibility.

This is Pantheon, though. A rocking chair should be more fuzzy troll:

Internally, they're quests (and if you have 25 active quests, they don't activate nor update), and almost all of them have your outpost quest for the zone as a prereq. *edit* as noted just above.

Alas, with an expansion, you get that for two, maybe three weeks, and then it's over until next expansion. Spreading it brings you back every couple weeks for a long time.

That's a repeat, no? It should be about Pantheon, Pantheoff...
