Rift also suffered from annoying/monotonous group and raid encounters that were some variation on "avoid the red circles of death".

Chuan cries:

Utter nonsense. By that logic a game like EvE should have been a complete failure while games like SWG and ESO should be successes. These super massive MMO's just don't work anymore, the market is saturated with them. There's a place for a game like EvE, just like there would be a place for a...

I don't think the people that want a group focused PvE game that harkens back to EQ1 while adding some new things is only a few hundred people on this board. Look at how much interest Pantheon got even though it was a total disaster; that type of game doesn't exist anymore... so if one was made...

I've got a question for Elidroth, how come SOE is making every different kind of MMO except the one we all want?

He also paid himself 5x what everyone else was getting, which is why the money only lasted a month.

The guy is just incompetent at leading any project, he should of been the creative director and not the CEO.

It sounded like Silius was saying there was a $15,000 chunk missing that was transferred to Bank of America.

Never heard Silius sound so pissed, and he received a lot of hate from the players when he ran Vanguard for about a year.

Consensus of the devs seemes to be that Brad has zero leadership skills and was incompetent at constructing the KS.

As a former Vanguard player, and hence Silius-hater, it would take a lot to make me feel sorry for him. But it sounds like he and the rest of the team got fucked over pretty bad by Brad. He was saying on KTAM that he wanted to make a 4-player co-op open-world game before they attempted to...

Some people will white knight Brad til the end for one simple reason: this was going to be the only group PvE game on the horizon. I mean what else is there? EQ2 - Possibly the worst combat system in MMO history. WoW: WoD - Solo leveling with some possible high end raiding that will last 3-4...

Did anything ever come of your pitch to Smed about an EQ1 type game?

Sounds like a shitty endgame.

Is there endgame PvE raiding?

The saddest part is this was a huge missed opportunity, it's not like there wasn't enough people wanting to play a game like this. People were very excited prior to the KS and were completely shocked to find how poorly the KS page was organized.

If anyone deserves a key its us.

I don't think any of us care until they actually have a pre-alpha version to show people... let alone secure enough funding to actually finish this thing.

You just have to use different block spots. I use these 2 spots and they only get de-warded once in a while.

Combat in Ultima games was always terrible, so its not a surprise they don't really know what to do with it yet.

Final Fantasy X is shit. I also never liked the Smash Bros. series.

It's not a con, it's just incompetence.

I raise you 7-slotted Naga by EE try-hard.

This thread makes me sad... knowing a game like this is probably never going to be made.

He really is amazing. He solo ganks against 2 with Wisp ult with 1/3rd hp and gets both kills 4 minutes into the game.

Is this new campaign really that much better? I was so disappointed by the original... I only got like ~3 hours into before I quit. The engine just felt much too limited, there was no exploration; the old SNES version had more freedom than it did.

Except 'Jason X' had more believable scientists in it.

Brad mentions rerolled about 9:40 in. lol

The KS was just a complete letdown and further cemented the notion that Brad & co. can't manage anything. But you'd all still come crawling back if they somehow pull it off in the end.

People are still playing this shit?

Some new screens. Maybe its because I've played the Wildstar beta lately... but I like the fact that it's not flashy or over the top. Just enough brown.

There's no way this game is getting made without a publisher. So who would publish it? Not SOE for sure. Trion just had layoffs. And NCSoft tried it once with Garriott and failed. I just don't see it.

They're probably in scramble mode right now knowing there's no way it's getting funded on KS. Still can't believe how poorly thought out this was.

My guess is they are probably looking for investors.

New piece of info on Teleporting: There will be "pockets of energy" that certain classes can use to teleport to other "pockets". However, they are dangerous to use and could be guarded by non-trivial Mage mobs and/or teleport you to a dangerous section of the world. They could also give you...
