    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I think CoH did mob packs pretty well; you had minions which you could one-shot, then LT's which took a couple more hits, and bosses which took some work. You could have large packs of minions, or packs with all three types. Was pretty fun. Still not a fan of how overused telegraphs are used in...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Got my invite, made a new NCSoft account, worked fine. Except, the WildStar forums show my old display name (tied to stress test/closed beta account), rather than the new one I setup during the new account setup. No additional keys here.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That is exactly what I am hoping Blizz will do with the Garrisons, make them feel more apart of the world....I mean, they are garrisons, why not let them be attacked?

    Thor: The Dark World.

    I think once I heard Dark World would be about Maelkith(?), that I let myself get hopeful that it would somehow be connected with the only Thor comic story arc I followed; About the demon Surtur's attack on Asgard / Beta-Ray Bill / big breawl at the end with Loki, Thor and Odin all fighting...

    TERA

    Ha. I used those sliders on a human and high elf. Have to say the max setting looks deformed, its really funny (though the +3 setting on a high elf wearing the "v-neck" swimsuit looks good). Now, the +1 / +2 setting looks great, too bad those settings can't be made to work on all armors.

    Yea, you are right. The amount of white knighting I just endured when I brought this up in my NeoGAF guild was hilarious. All they did was say "is there proof this has occured?"...or its "non-issue, SE should be working on other things"...or "the chances of that actually happening are so remote...

    Gravity (2013)

    If the only 3D option for this movie in my area is the "Real 3D" stuff, which I don't care for at all, is it still worth seeing on a large non-3D screen?

    Did you look under the Configure options? Something new in there made me happy, but I could have missed it before, so maybe its not new.

    What does the Archer get that the Bard does not? Just curious, since my Bard has internal release, blood for blood along with the normal Archer buffs of hawkeye / barrage / raging strikes.

    Question about buffs and DoT's. From what I've read here and elsewhere, it seems that once a DoT is applied, it will not be affected by any form of buff afterwards for its duration. Meaning, if you want the DoT to do more damage per tick, you need to have a +Dmg buff up prior to casting the DoT...

    Its only the armor that does that to Elin. They haven't brought in the body sliders yet, and the boob slider is just for swimsuits (I think).

    Guild Wars 2

    Are they saving the expansion of the main story ( the elder dragons ) for some later date? All the updates they have done so far, while some being very fun, have just been like a distraction. Could have used all that time / resources for building up the other elder dragon storylines. /shrug

    Anyone using nVidia Inspector with ARR? I got Vorph's SweetFX settings to work, but I dislike how chat text gets slightly distorted. All I really want is better AA than ingame offers, and nicer colors (which SweetFX offers).

    I really like playing my Bard after playing a Monk / Dragoon, so much more freedom. Not sure what stats to try and bump up besides Dex; Skill Speed, Crit and Determination all sound good. I just HOPE that at some point the game will allow for costume slots...I'm not looking forward to wearing...

    How are people upgrading to the Digital CE? Are those of us who pre-order supposed to get a "retail" code that we use at the new Mogstation? When I login to my Account there, it says I have two services available for my account: Beta Test Pre-Order Below that it shows my characters, Account...

    Are the NA/EU still down for maintenance, or is this just another period of shitty service?

    The Start button is greyed out for me. I find it funny when people, like me, mention that NA/EU got the shitty end of SE's server allocation and the people who defend SE say "Oh its just because there are so many more people connecting to the NA/EU datacenter"...bleh?

    Sorry for the dumb question, but where do you place the SweetFX folder / dlls in the Benchmark tool program folder? In the main folder, or in the Game folder? Hasn't been working at for me so far.

    Some screenshots from the Reddit page (which seems sort hosed atm): http://m.imgur.com/a/GAkCa Does anyone know what armor set is shown at the very bottom? The black full body armor and sword, looks badass.

    Tablets

    Question about the Nexus 7, if anyone happens to know. I see that it has WiFi, but would it be possible to use a wired connection with it? Is there some USB connector that I could use to plug the 7 into my non-wireless router? (yes, I guess I am in the stone-age by not having a wireless router).

    I did the pre-order through SE, got the code instantly. No email yet saying I can go register that code. Tried their pre-order site again, got the same error message, but this time when I checked the account page, it shows that FFXIV is finally registered. Dunno if that is what I need to get...

    Guild Wars 2

    I am rather disappointed that GW2 hasn't expanded upon the main storyline (afaik) dealing with the other elder dragons wrecking stuff elsewhere. With the amount of time they have investing in putting out bi-weekly "content" updates, I'd think they could start moving us towards another dragon.

    So any advice for a new player to ARR / FF in general? Since I'll going down the Pugilist / Monk route, I thought about taking up Goldsmithing / Leatherworking / Mining to craft gear, but will that gear be worthwhile? Also, default female Roegadyn look a lot like Yara Greyjoy from GoT.

    Apparently the Phase 4 installer is available here: http://gdl.square-enix.com/ffxiv/inst/ffxivsetup.exe But the patch server is down, so there is nothing to download.
