Great. So instead of 1,000 variations of l3g0l4s we get 1,000 variations of Dr222t D0urd3n or wtf is the name of the RAS character. -_- Edit: Yes I know EQN won't allow leet speak names. Didn't want to bother inventing unimaginative names for examples.

Assuming a decent leveling curve. You should spend weeks /played on the ground more then enough time to understand the zones. I'm talking about after hitting max level. I'm not suggesting we return to VG's or WoW's pay a dollar and ride the griffon.

I'm dubious we'll find more than bacteria - but this is pretty reasonable. The problem is the Universe is implacably hostile to life. Mars is a perfect example. Mars is in the right place, had running water for a while but is as dead as a doorknob because the atmosphere escaped and the place...

Screw you guys. Flying mounts are cool. I don't want to walk forever. I assume you all are either bards/druids or wizzes. -_-

They've already got the physics for warp drive. They just need negative matter or negative energy or some other exotic unobtanium - you can google it. I'm sure we'll have it working in fifty years or less if we don't blow ourselves up before them/get hit by a massive solar flare/etc.

I'm a trusting soul so I'll take you at your word that you've got a friend at SOE. I won't link to the video because I don't feel like it - but for a game to be wildly successful it must combine both old and new elements. The question in everyone's mind is this: did EQN go too far? Is it...

No. They're doing exactly the same thing in the US.

Sure you haven't.

Don't give up hope quite yet.

Or there aren't any other intelligent species in the Universe, or so few as to not matter for any practical purpose (1 or less per supercluster/etc).

Odds are only the Ken Keeler episodes will be worth watching. He's the most consistently 'okay' of the remaining crop of writers.

The chick shitting tennis balls wasn't spoilered.

Yep.

Only reason I'm going. If they don't give us Beta then I'll be one of those who'll be gnashing teeth & etc.

Actually, this is exactly what SOE is doing wrong. We all know (if not necessarily admit) that EQN is not going to be EQ1++. Instead it will be some possibly awful combination of EQ/EVE/Minecraft/SBricks/Pizza/FreeRealms/WoW/VG and Planetside2. Folks who are hoping for EQ1++ are going to be...

http://www.newyorker.com/online/blog....html?mobify=0 Good read on how the NSA and FBI walk all over the First Amendment in the name of national security.

You know this quote works just as well if your switch "fat" and "back" ...

I'll be there buddy, camping for drunk reasonably attractive chicks. There will be lots of placeholders and trashed mobs but with luck maybe a named will pop.

Problem is I want to ignore some folks only on SS (Fedor, anyone who posts chicks with dicks, people shitting anything, etc.) but I don't mind reading their contributions outside of SS.

NO. No. Noooooooooooo. Stop with the bulshit. They get everybodies data and analyze the exabytes+ of data. i.e. data mining. Which is why people like the Tsaernaves were completely overlooked.

Another Kreugen Thread Bomb "KTB" (tm). The thing is an MMO is more than the sum of its parts - so even if Creedy is describing TSW maybe the TSW system will work better in a game with Storybricks instead of Quests and +1 Vorpal Swords instead of guns. We can talk about...

Unless some indie surprises, pretty much. Also Alex was an asshole and one of the reasons the fohguild boards went to shit - after about 2008 he would just permaban anyone who bitched too much about WoW/Blizzard. EQN can't possibly be EQ1 Reborn (or UO reborn) there will be lots too dislike...

Give them a couple of years.

Yes.

Yep. Sucks because dedicated roles promote emergent gameplay. You have to learn to master a class' abilities instead of fucking around with the FOTM skill build.

Yes, def a "be all you can be" vibe from Georgeson. -_- The nice thing abou classes in a fantasy game is that it makes it easy to form pugs. You know what you need (tank, healer ,2 dps, cc, +xtra). And what classes fill those role.

Ugh. I also hate crap like halfling paladins pummelling some Diety or the other. Halflings don't belong in metal armor.

Ugh. I don't like the be all you can be meme. Class choice should matter.

bleh. I like class/race choices to matter. This is okay if limited by class/race. I'm fine with a hybrid system of some sort, but you still needs levels.

Former WoW lead on his regrets while trying to shill his new game:http://www.mmorpg.com/showFeature.cf...-Too-Easy.html

Why doesn't it gimp the casual player?

DCUO sorta did this, it doesn't work as well as you think. You're just replacing levels with item tiers. Alternatively you have to design encounters with specific resists (e.g. nature resist/AQ BS in Vanilla WoW) so all you end up doing is forcing a different kind of grind.

Levels aren't the problem. The rush is the problem. Someplace between vanilla WoW and EQ is the right leveling speed, beta/early VG was pretty close but while it had nice dungeon design it had crappy loot and crappy bosses compared to EQ. Levels, properly implemented, provide a nice sense of...

The issue wasn't whether I want sex on the first date. The issue is what is more satisfying: sex on the first date, or sex after you've been chasing a girl, worth chasing, for a while and finally getting it.

Putting it another way. You want to eat the best peanut butter and jelly sandwich in your entire life? 1. Wake up at 8am and make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (with your favorite peanut butter, jelly and bread). 2. Put the sandwich and a glass of water in the refrigerator. 3. Do...

Oh give me a fucking break. All men much prefer a challenge than the girl who will sleep with them on their first 'date'. Sure you'll sleep with the girl you met at the bar, and maybe go out with her for a bit after that but what your really want is the hot girl that you have to work on for a...

Why do you think the NSA has a hardon for Quantum Computers? QC are awesome for decryption.

@Edit - abso-fucking-correct. That's the point. You get the dopamine high by doing it the old-fashioned EQ way. You don't get it from the new-hotness. @SoftTargeting - Bah, I'd try it in a some game where the fireball also damages everything (including members of your party) if they're in...
