    From what I can tell I don't think everyone gets their own? I think a monarch gets one, then everyone swears fealty to him and he allots them a space in his EK. The big question is what's the value of having a badass EK. Personally I'm a bit annoyed about the expensive kickstarter tiers...

    Make the gameplay fun then make the animations around the gameplay. Weight in animations means animation locking, which means it feels generally unresponsive or laggy. I'd say AA is a pve game. If they tweaked a few things to force players to risk PvP when farming it'd be much more pvp centric...

    While I agree that the publisher + developer model generally works better than developers on their own, one could also argue that the people running this show didn't offer it to publishers because they want full control and rights to it for very good reasons. I'm not going to sit here and...

    The less opportunity for group inter-dependence (ex: having dedicated healers) the less able organized groups are to take on larger ones.

    can't hotlink kickstarter images I guess. Either way you can read it on their page. Crowfall - Throne War PC MMO by ArtCraft Entertainment, Inc. Kickstarter Seems like the EK is all about having a monarch that rules a world, then distributes land to its members and they can use that land...

    I feel your pain. After Auroria the west completely overran halcy. Like 200 west and 0 east. I wanted to change this so I set up guild raids 3 days a week. We'd bring in some 70 people and act as a speed bump for the western army. After a few of these raids I reached out to the guild leaders of...

    No point in even trying to nail down when this shit is going to happen. They have no real idea when it's going to get released and they have no contractual obligation to hit any dates.

    At this early stage it's more about helping a game we want to play come to fruition than whatever bullshit comes with the packages. If you're a PVPer who wants the industry to know there is a market for PvP games, you have an opportunity to vote with your wallet.

    With regard to RNG, because RNG permeates every level of this game's gear one can't focus on one item they get screwed on as the reason they are undergeared. By the time you get a delph weapon and epherium armor to celestial (what you need to be considered 'geared') you'll have either rolled...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I've almost always used C++ instead of straight C, but in C you have to declare your variables at the top of the function so the compiler knows what memory to allocate (I think). So you can't put your declaration in the for loop. You can always tell when a developer spent a lot of time in C...

    If people make AAA games that fill a market neglected for over a decade that's fine by me. It's not like the next CoD or even loved games like the next GTA or elder scrolls game would be able to do what SC did. The people buying $1000 ships want a massive flight sim game and there's nothing for...

    For linux C++ I use eclipse cdt. It's so much worse than visual studio + visual assist =( For json I use sublime text, it's the only editor I've found that has syntactical assistance (intellisens) and validation.

    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?

    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...

    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...

    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.
