    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    There is a post on the EQ forums by someone who has the Surface Pro 4 with i5 and 8gb. HD graphics 520. He runs 2 instances of EQ on it. Augur, one of the devs has a surface pro and likes it. Not sure how 515 stacks up to 520.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    MMO's are bringing in billions of dollars world wide, and the industry keeps growing. A big portion of that growth is in asia (China). The amount of options for modern gamers is staggering though. It isn't just WoW and a couple of others. With so many options, big whales like WoW are probably...

    Thanks for that. Deposit placed. Good luck.

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    Most Raider fans support the team no matter where they go. The boycott is a nothing burger.

    NFL 2017 Offseason - Where does Romo go?

    Lifetime Raiders fan, live in San Diego now. Raider fans have been through this rodeo before (Los Angeles 80s - 90s). We travel well. Moving to Vegas sucks for Oakland, and most of us wish they could stay there but we are a loyal bunch. Vegas works. As for building stadiums in California, it...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Damn this thread.. Going to check out one of the other current progression servers and see if the nostalgia is strong enough. Most likely wont be able to join the sock groups. Work, etc isn't that forgiving. Troll (master race) sk.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I don't know what Brad's vision is, haven't even looked it up. But if they go for the sub model and just reskin EQ with modern graphics and ui improvements that would be a winner... imho. Not a new opinion, but so what? The classic EQ servers seem to be very popular even now. Updating the...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    GoD was tough even on the bleeding edge at the time. And there were a ton of complaints, but every expansion had issues. PoP is the expansion that was the beginning of end for our guild. We moved to FFXI for 6 months or so and let other guilds take over the server. Then came back and crushed...

    Don't read the official forums. But if you mean DRAMA then that is a big portion of what made old EQ great, the flames forums.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Black Desert and the other Asian grinders prove there is a market for longer games. And EQ was a huge grind. If Pantheon goes that route, that's fine. Never have the kind of time to be competetive again, but EQ was great for casuals too. The group game dungeon crawls in open zones were a lot of...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Luclin had a lot of cool things about it. AA was a big deal and brought a lot of players back. But one of the downsides of Luclin was the intense key farming at the end game. Before Luclin on our server we had a bunch of guilds that competed at the top end, cock blocking and all that. I loved...

    The Best and Worst States in the Union: Many Metrics

    Very true, it even use to be a republican stronghold in the eighties and nineties. My comment about liberal tards was about the state in general. You could nuke the state government in Sacramento and the world would instantly be a better place.

    The Best and Worst States in the Union: Many Metrics

    I've lived in many of the western states, only visited the east coast a couple of times. I like all the western states really, if I had to chose one that I liked least it would probably be Colorado, the east half. Denver during my time there was a bit of a hole. The people there just didn't...

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    Amazon has boatloads of money. Make something half way interesting and it include the game in my prime membership, then it's a win imo. And Smed might be a good choice, I don't know. It's very hard to determine where the magic came from that created EQ. Brad was definitely a major part of that...

    Politics, civility, and you!

    Calling middle America "Racists", "Fly over country", "Nazi's", etc etc. Didn't tip the scales for Clinton. In fact, it seems to have had the opposite effect. Especially after eight years of that bs. Nixon called them the "Silent Majority". Most people don't change their minds when confronted...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Parachute.. Will buy this game when (if) it comes out. I've never had any issues with Brad (and yes, I liked Vanguard). EQ was a major portion of my life (in a good way) and Brad was a major part of the team that created that. It's basic rule of the internet that threads full of haters (like...

    Black Desert

    Yeah, BD has some incredible elements to it. Some of it's systems are the best in the industry imo. Unfortunately, the grind to be competitive in PvP is just too much. But I still play the game off and on for the other elements. Love the combat. I also like the crafting, fishing, general...

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Yeah the BKP's do sound awesome. Priced turned me off when I first looked into them. Have to check again. Didn't know about the Nazgul. Will have to look into it. My Ibanez project made me realize how behind I am. Doing a bunch of research to catch up.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Hey all. Just found this thread. Greets to all the guitar heads. What's your opinion of the Black Winter pups? Have an old Ibanez in storage that I'm thinking of bringing out of retirement, might add the Black Winters. The you tube vids for them sound amazing, but would like to get some other...

    Revelation Online

    Kind of cool. Haven't played it enough to be able to have any long term view though. Wish I had started earlier, so I could test out the PvP, which will be the only thing that will keep me in this game long term. Watched a video with 500vs500. Couldn't really tell what was going on but it could...

    Google politics or welcome to a Dystopia

    Google News is crap for politics. Seriously biased "algorithm". But the rest are even worse. Have to jump around to a dozen sites to even get a feel for the truth, and even that is probably way off base. Journalism is at it's lowest point in decades.

    Fuck it. Bought the game. Always forget how cheap mmo entertainment is, even for the crappy ones. Wasted this evening looking up reviews when I could have been playing the game and deciding for myself.

    Is the Democratic party still a relevant political party?

    The current leadership of the Dimwits isn't relevant, mainly because they are older than 99 percent of humanity. And their bench is really pathetic. But both parties go through upheavals when the old decrepit leadership that can't change with the times has to die off (or be humiliated losing...

    New cold war?

    And he gave up because Reagan upped the ante. We had all the aces (plus 2 in the sleeve). The Soviets folded like a cheap suit.

    New cold war?

    Lol, you never played no limit poker. Which is what the cold war was all about. The Soviets ran out of chips and lost.

    New cold war?

    Pathetic. As was stated before, they couldn't change their spending because it was already maxed. Your ability to grasp basic logic is zero. It's no wonder you are always at a loss.

    New cold war?

    Lol, really? I never once said it did. It was the effect of that spending that caused the problem, it was unsustainable. Not any change in it. Get a grip. You are arguing about the shiny distraction. Ick. The Soviets couldn't grow their Military spending any more and then SDI forced the issue...

    New cold war?

    Reagan shortened the endgame (with a willing partner in Gorby). The fact that you think he was irrelevant to the process is mind numbingly obtuse and ignores basic facts. You are just pissed that somebody could push so easily and your favorite team fell like a stack of cards in the wind. Sorry...
