You'll get no argument from me that the GOP leadership in the House (Boehner, Cantor, Ryan & co.) is beyond salvage, though the Dem leadership (Pelosi & co.) is just as bad. Our Government is not run for the benefit of the People but for the benefit of those in Government. Expect to find out...

Eh no. I'm pretty sure of about 80% of what we're going to get (seemless world, EVElike PvP, original continents, player created content, storybricks AI mobs, storybricks quests) so I'm mostly interested in that 20% I know I don't know and have been unable to guess at based on the hints, tweets...

I own this long on HSX. I don't see any reason to sell.

It's option 2, mostly. I don't know where you got this fixation that player created content has to be instanced. Smedley's examples of world-changing by players were mostly in-world (e.g. burning down a forest). Project Spark-like tools are much better for in-world creation than making...

SOE was smart enough to call it a sandbox.

I'll add it's not going to ship complete they're going to ship as soon as they can and we the beta testers and early players get to help fill out the world.

It is our destiny. Might as well accept it as I have with EVElike PvP. Also Bill Trost just rejoined SOE and is working on EQN so the circle is now complete, all the classic-era EQ devs are back at SOE and most are working on EQN.

Depends heavily on the EQN reveal though of course there's always EQMac to fall back on. Speaking of EQN. I'm now firmly in the Beta starts* on August 6th, release this year if at all possible, early next year if not, camp. Draegen better get his site up soon. *Start means a...

Fippy & Vulak January or Feburary 2011.

Nose is all wrong.

What's my kind?

I certainly grieved last time I played on a PvP server...

I didn't say I wanted EQ:N to be like EVE, I said EQ:N will have EVE elements - whether I want them or not. I am hoping those elements are limited to a big continent to fight over resources but most of the world has limited to no PvP. We'll see in 8 1/2 days.

I think we all agree that it is likely that EQN will have FFA PvP ruleset servers. I won't be playing on those servers/that server but I hope you have a ton of fun there.

It doesn't matter. There will be some form of world PvP in EQN. I'm just hoping it's not Nirgon's worldwide gankfest if you're w/n 4 levels and more along the lines of EVE's security sectors where Nirgon can fight over unobtanium in Odus 0.0 whilst I just worry about ogres and gnolls in Qeynos...

PvP is a pointless ego-grind unless it is truly part of the game. You want to act like a bandit and rob other PCs? Game should treat you like a bandit - you should end up only able to socialize with other player-bandits and NPC bandits.. You basically become a Player run mob out there in...

I doubt it will be monetized like that. More like player studio. You can sell a keep wall or wizard tower or big rug. Not whole dungeons. SOE will control content via procedural rules/AI. No 50 ogres in one room to aoe. edit: maybe you can stick 50 ogres in one room but they won't stay...

What Quaid said, also one of the devs retracted a project spark related tweet. edit: or rather I'm unable to find it on twitter. I don't think anyone outside of soe and storybricks is in the current alpha. I suspect some people (hi2u Zehn) were in previous alphas and it was partly due to...

I posted this back around e3 but eqn creation tools will be much more project spark than dungeon maker. http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/07/19/project-spark-little-hype-lots-to-like

It won't be anything like Dungeon Maker.

I rarely agree with Rezz but pretty much this. Nirgon you seem like a decent fellow but my experience on PvP servers is one of being ganked and corpse-camped by some much higher level repeatedly, to the point where I just quit. For PvP to have consequences factions need to matter and PKing...

I am reasonably confident that PMC in EQN won't RLT (roll like that). It's going to be more like: build an in-world keep from pre-set building elements and the game will procedurally generate some additional NPC buildings & NPC based on your keep & your class. NPCs will populate with...

I don't think it's going to roll like this but we'll see. You don't need an instance to make a battle ground if you can alter the main world.

So you want an MMO with non-consensual PvP and FPS combat in a fantasy setting? And SoE should release this because of all the uber successful similiar MMOs?

1. It's you're. Your is possessive: your house. You're is a contraction: you are bad/you're bad. 2. FPS has no place in an MMORPG, particularly EQN.

Ugh. GTFO. @rolx sure buddy.

Action Combat = carpal tunnel syndrome. Better to just wait 9 days for the reveal and then decide if you want to give up the ability to write or type.

Whatever it is, it won't be anything like Dungeon Maker. @Rolx cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Relax buddy. 1. First thing was the painting. 2. This is hardly giving 'everyone the finger' 3. Full reveal is in 9 days.

That's a lot of drama for a short vid.

Re-watch and note the bleep. Was probably referring to player made content.

You're wrong.

Phasing is dynamic weaksauce. I'd rather have a truly dynamic world, fortunately that's supposedly what we're getting.

Do'h.

Vegas is Mountain Time.

I don't know who's feeding you this FUD but it isn't the case. The IRS scandal is a good litmus test for reasonableness. Any democrat/progressive who is not bothered/troubled/unsettled by the misconduct of the IRS in this instance is a democrat/progressive who is untroubled by a one-party...

Yes "thousands" in the largest metro area in the United States. Unimpressive. And why? Because blacks in urban areas are well aware that the majority of black on black crime is caused by black men 18-24 and they know deep down that the "a-few-weeks-from-his-18th-birthday" Trayvon was a thug...

I'm pretty sure EQN will be EVElike in that there will be PvP areas where the PvP is primarily over the control of resources but it is not EVEesque in that PvE will remain a huge element of the game (which I gather it isn't in EVE). People are forgetting that Storybricks isn't just about...

How's that again? It was just tied to an Obama political appointee in D.C. With respect to the First Amendment http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2013/07/16/...nner/?mod=e2tw The American People don't seem to mind the coming Police State.
