    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    Not sure, it's been a while but i never found a reliable way to get arbitrary orcs. Both playthroughs i pretty much just used whatever orcs i found.

    Mystery solved. My dad logged in the account to cycle the bazaar mule on another server :D

    Put both my characters into the queue within a few seconds of eachother about 4 hours ago. My cleric got in 5+ minutes ago, still waiting on the enchanter. Hard to imagine that the queue system would have that kind of asymmetry, but with a queue time that'll take me 4 hours or whatever...

    Longest queues I ever saw for a game was Archeage on launch and 32 hours. In an Archeage launch there is a literal land-grab where you had to acquire a house and place it. It was hilarious though, people would come home and see the queue and realize they wouldn't be able to log in for two...

    This timing makes sense. Sometimes creating a coherent queue or similar system take 15 minutes to write, an hour to integrate and a few hours to test. Then creating the progress bar to show to players goes through the UI guy but they're backed up because the ice texture doesn't work quite right...

    how you gonna get suspended for training?? sounds like bullshit enforcement to me. 184m queue when I logged off tonight at 10PM EST. I'm really hoping that queue is some artificial bullshit they release a bit after the weekend or something. The server is pretty lively but it's not THAT lively.

    I want to make my life's mission to group with him and get all of our characters deleted so I can reroll and take back my name.

    He didn't respond to my tell yesterday. He's level 6 and I'm still level 1, so I guess he's winning the race :D

    I think they fucked over the servers earlier this week and reduced the global player cap to very few people.

    First thing I'd do every shift if I was the Karen GM is to delete all the boxing/botting reports without looking at them. A GM just needs to port around to all the high-value spots and hit people, there are so few spots to police and so few players that it's just not that hard.

    Nah, it's a pretty common name. I'm not that upset since I don't even have it on Bristlebane since it got merged. Ironically the first character named Tuco I ever made was ON Bristlebane, and it's been my gaming name on dozens (hundreds?) of games over the last twenty years, but I don't have it...

    I can't log in because of queues, but people are saying there's about 300 people on the server right now. hahahahaha

    I'm guessing that the person who did the UX for this queue also did the queueing system and the database code for the last few years. So, to answer your question, no.

    There's a lot you could do. The sad truth is that if you're a talented and motivated game developer you're not working at DPG.

    Not to derail too much but what's funny about the live scene is that the last expansion was easy from top to bottom, and the final raid was killed by 20 guilds in the first week. https://www.elitegamerslounge.com/home/progress/expansion.php?exp_id=92 Compare that with TBL, where the difference...

    Why the hell does legends of runeterra have the best commercials for anything ever? I audibly laughed when i saw this ad and then looked the game up to find it was a card game.

    Aradune is my first TLP so I'm staying humble about it all but the MMO gamer in me has a hard time taking any super-competitive TLP player all that seriously. Like, competition is competition but come on, this shit was figured out twenty years ago and for many classes in Classic->PoP the...

    Not sure what you mean by full suite there. When Aradune launches what in the below list will be available for Daybreak cash?

    Dumb question: I have accounts with over 7000 daybreak cash, there is no way to buy packs and shit on Aradune with that right? The only thing I can p2w on is the bullshit that costs $$$?

    What do you think a TLP would be like without pick zones? Have they ever talked about limiting the # of pick zones based on the current population (meta pick zones, lol) such that if there were 500 level 50s online they would open 3 guks, but if there were only 100 level 50s online they'd open one?

    Lots of good ways to make EQ TLP difficult, few people are interested in doing it via contested content on PVE servers.

    I've never played TLP but if half of what people say is true it'd be hard to take a rando rogue in the group in classic because not only is it gimpy on paper, but the person who chose to ride that gimpy horse is probably a potato.

    I really don't want to buy into their bullshit "release a new TLP and everyone has to buy bags again" cycle. Is it really that important to get these things? If so, is $20 for a 40slot bag a good price or should i wait till they release the new pack?

    I never even looked at them, but doing epic quests is something I really enjoyed and I kind of wish I had a reason to do the remaining epics. There's just something satisfying about passing by some rando dude in the old world and thinking, "Oh yeah he's the guy for that bit in the bard epic".

    Not sure about on TLP but i was amazed at how much harder the mage epic was than every other epic I've done. I think ive done everything but nec, wiz, enc, dru, pal and sk.
