    That's the problem. Tiering up is also about getting gear - so if they're saying 5 weeks to tier 5 that means itemization is fucked. So here's hoping something was lost in translation (for example that the needed gear to reach tier 5 is only a small subset of appropriate gear so actually gear...

    Yes, which gets us back to concerns over multiclassing - the last comment was "Weeks to Tier 5 for a class". Now if that were hardcore weeks to Tier 5, I'd be less concerned but I'm reasonably certain that's casual weeks to tier 5 which means days for hardcore players. Hopefully we can...

    It sounds a little Riftesque - but we'll see. And yes this is the only concern listed in dgrabs rant that I thought was valid. There needs to be lore restrictions (No Shadowknight Paladin builds. No Necromance druid build. Etc) There needs to be race restrictions (except for humans -...

    I didn't want to get into a dick-wagging fest over the differences between "?" and the "Rohsong Book" because we've seen one but not the other. I tend to agree with Ukerric and Lleauric that the big isn't the DCUO communicator you seem to think it is - we'll see. @BigFlex enjoy your vacation.

    The diablocraft stuff is not going away every five minutes. And yes like minecraft, procedurally generated caverns tend to have a similiar feel. So what? For what it is being used for (additional available content) it is fine.

    This is just silly. The diabloesque stuff is fine. What do you want 100,000 people in LGuk? Get serious. Bullshit.

    I'm flat out against suicide - assisted or otherwise, abortion and the death penalty (as noted on page 1). So no. I am fine with DNRs, refusing treatment and purely palliative care. If you don't want the chemo, but want the morphine for pain until you die, that's fine. As I've said, we...

    And you act like the person deciding isn't suffering from depression or other mental illness thus reducing his capacity to make such decisions. Do we let four year old children make all their decisions for themselves? No, because they are at a much reduced capacity for decision making given...

    So under your logic we should kill anyone who is not making "contributions to society" but is not "strong enough" to make that decision for him or herself. Nice.

    I already stated 400 pages ago I thought the possible release window was August 2014 to June 2015 depending on how well EQN/L does. But I'll narrow that down to end of the year 2014.

    Yeah. No way should someone with only one or two tier 1 classes be able to do tier 5 content. If he can the game is broken. Especially with the "weeks" to tier 5 (1 casual week = 1 hardcore day, Say 5-10 days to max tier per class - or 200-400 days to mac tier in 40 classes?).

    Eh maybe they're just grinding fish. No, a newbie shouldn't be killing a dragon, but there's other ways to contribute. E.g. the static beginner quests change to things that progress the Rallying Call. I still think you're going to end up playing EQN Dumar.

    Of course it's my business. There are societal wide effects from a casual attitude towards death. Sure the media has a huge responsiblity for the various post-Colombine attacks, but so does the increasing blase attitude we have towards death in all its forms. It's a slippery slope.
