Dude I worked with Hero Engine in 2011-12, I even had a shitty fohguild post about it. And back before I made the idiot decision to go to law school I was a UNIX Systems Admin for the telecom development side of GTE/Verizon. But who gives a fuck? Right? Because the thing is, I could be a D-...

But that's the trick, nobody is happy with the kickstarter. Go back to Monday and Tuesday's posts on this thread. Most of us, myself included, wanted Brad to take it down and: -Redo the video showing only Concept Art. No gameplay. -Get rid of the "SLASH" screenshot. -Fix the tiers (even...

Which wasn't my point was it? My point was that a bunch of people who have neither CS degrees nor development experience were discussing Unity and Heroengine in this thread as if they were Coke and Pepsi. Also try to keep up with the thread before going postal, twenty pages, Brad was asking...

Dear Utnayan, You're behavior in this thread has me convinced that you are a giant fraud. I had thought you bitched about games because, deep down, you actually cared about games not sucking. But I see now that you just want to bitch about games. We are all aware of the problems with...

Please stop with the engine discussion in this thread. If you don't understand how retarded it is, then you yourself are retarded. Are you retarded a_skeleton_03? Are you?

Brad, remember to keep cycling between boards. You got a pledge abd a supporter from your post on mmo champion. Circle back

Unlimited v. Limited tiers

Ditto. Need a 350-400 tier for testing and lifetime sub.

yep.

Gotta say the unity v hero engine discussion by non developers has my vote for rerolled retarded discussion of the year. And it's only January.

You have gone full retard. Don't ever go full retard. 1. This forum couldn't design a game to save its life. We disagree about basic mechanics. Or are you new here? 2. No one would give two shits or money if we did. 3. Brad has been working his ass off. 4. Heroengine sucks; the fact...

Just finished talking to a friend who is in Citizen on Fippy. He told me that the Progression Server folks, who of all the EQ folks, are the most likely to contribute (IMHO), are mostly unaware of Brad's project. I'm not sure of how best to reach out to them since all the guilds run their own...

I'll pass. I'm focusing on Mac gaming forums that I know about. @etchazz did you pledge yet?

Warrior, Cleric, Enchanter, Rogue, Paladin, Shadowknight, Shaman and Necro. Are my picks for the default classes. Tank, Heal, CC, DPS then three hybrid classes and one solo class.

Nothing innovative. Creating a trinity class system and tough mobs that requiring grouping from early on to efficiently gain XP, as in EQ1.

Stop being a jackass, pledge the 45 bucks so you get into the alpha.

Great. You hate Kickstarter and think it should be regulated like everything else. Take it to General and or send emails to Mike Bloomberg about this grave injustice.

Nazi mods on PA. Pretty much a mod would have to start the thread since it's a kickstarter or you'd have to petition on a mod to let you start the thread. This is one reason I dislike Penny Arcade - the PA guys come across as all cool and indy supporting but they give no real support to...

Very strange double post...

Jesus Tap Dancing Christ Ut, If people are looking for a return on investment for their money the will go the stock market. Kickstarter is Florence, except we're the Medicis blowing our money on art and/or entertainment. The only thing people are looking for on Kickstarter is something that...

2,900 views. I disagree, that's enough people to be worth Brad's time, especially with a potentially interested Moderator. Heck, I've posted on the EQMac forums about the game ;-) And those are dead forums for the most part. Edit: And there are trolls everywhere ;-) Here, Reddit, MMO...

Brad you should visit the mmo champion thread to undo the damage some crazed fanboy did. Fan of Everquest? Vanguard? New MMO Kickstarter by Brad Mcquaid: Pantheon - Page 3 And Miracle of Miracles: the mod Edge is actually slightly interested in the game despite the crazy fanboy.

I didn't like swtor but sure

Also Hero Engine games don't look that good ;-)

I lose at gambling in Vegas, that's for sure. @Hateyou answer was written to discourage giving.

Thanks for the warning losing my 250 investment is going to destroy my retirement plans. Maybe I should just blow it on roulette and girls in Vegas. Oh wait, 250 doesn't even pay for a crappy night in Vegas.

@Merlin CU had a ton more pre kickstarter marketing, some major pvp guilds interested and a more organized kickstarter page/better video. There are a lot of people who will contribute if they can be informed of the game. Also who went and shat up the MMO champion thread? Made every...

Agree with this and with Troy (lets all hug it out now - Brad? you in).

I honestly don't think Smed has the money to buy or fund a game. By all accounts Smedley is a nepotistic bastard and likes to hire and keep "his friends" one reason I think he's a terrible CEO for SOE - but he fired a bunch of his friends in the RIF, including Brad. That means (a) his budget...

Brad should stop worrying about people on Reddit or elsewhere asking him about his past and just be like "shit happened, yeah, but I'm over that now" - look at Robert Downey Jr. He was a basket case, did rehab, kicked the heroin habit and now is one of the top 3 or 4 paid actors in Hollywood...

It's either Smedley or the Guild leader of Citizen. Edit: And my money would be on Smed.

Don't argue logic with Ut, he's convinced himself not to pay the cost of a cheap dinner ($20) for at least the Beta because apparently giant corporations like Sony should be making niche games for small audiences that might net them an extra $1,000,000 a year (if they're lucky) instead of, you...

I don't think you or Ut have a good understanding of SOE/Sony's finances. Sony Loses $2.2 Billion in Market Value After Forecast Cut - Bloomberg Utnayan apparently believes Smedley is sitting on a throne at SOE with a big pile of cash at his feet. Sony is hurting, the only bright spot is...

You fail at logic. The game doesn't ship if it isn't crowd funded. If I save my money, I will have nothing to spend it on. Dying in my bed with extra gold was cool for the Pharoahs, but I'd rather spend my money and have the chance of playing a decent new MMO.

Utnayan is denying reality again. Sony could give a crap about its piddly SOE division. Smedley doesn't have the money to fund another MMO. Frankly, if it weren't for PS4 and the few SOE titles Sony probably would have shuttered the division. Furthermore, everything else Ut is saying has...

Devs realy need to hit up Reddit - even if just posting in the various /r/mmorpg threads. Natives getting restless. Money staying in wallets.

I'm fine with undead not falling for feign death by monks/disciples as long as Necro/SK feign death has a similiar "green lantern - color yellow" weakness.

Why not? I was going for Pantheon as rocky road, but chunky monkey works just as well.

Dude, they have said repeatedly that 800k isn't enough to finish the project. They have said they will look for other sources of funding and basically implied that there are other sources of funding they are talking too but none of those outside investors, or whoever they are, will give them a...

Then you and Ut deserve the crap that's getting made by publishers. EA, SOE and etc are going to market for the largest, widest audience they can, so they have their best chance of a return on their investment. And that means they're going to put out vanilla and chocolate ice cream everytime...
