    There have only been a few mmorpgs which folded completely. But I think its all about perception. We are all guilty fo calling all these mmorpgs in the past 10 yrs failures, but are they really? Sure many failed to met expectations like SWTOR, but all in all there have been a very few true...

    Some games give you "bucks" to spend in the store if you have sub, like SOE for an example. I think they give you 500 sony bucks per month.

    Well there will be a day soon where most new consumer PCs just ship with SSDs. I know our next CAD stations at work have SSDs in them so im sure its not that far out. As for the mass storage on SSDs, why not? If they become cheap enough why not have a few terabytes of SSD storage instead of...

    Well thats the problem right there. The mmorpg got turned into a lobby mini game instead of what it was supposed to be. A persistent world, open world mmo-rpg that you could play for years at your own pace and slowly, over time claim your stake in that world. The very large audience thing is...

    Its funny how far digital photography has gotten in the past 10-15 yrs. You don't even see film anymore. This must of been the swiftest death of a medium ever. I remember my first digital being a sony with 1.5 mp. and a diskette. There was like a 1 second lag from when you pushed the button to...

    Shard means server or cluster of servers which you play on. Like in EQ, the game runs on multiple game servers, each with a unique name for identification. These names were originally the deities of the world of Norrath. In technical terms, each game server is actually a cluster of server...

    You guys are forgetting that 3/4 of EQs population never hit cap during Vanilla, and Kunark was released less than a year after release. More than doubling all the 30-50+ spots. When discussing games and game design decisions, you should not do it from a poopsockers viewpoint that played 16...

    Yeah, good choice. The 3570K will be infinitely better than your initial AMD choice and 99% better than the i3. Like I said, its the core of your system, all the other shit like video cards, SSDs and all that other good shit you can add or upgrade later when you get extra cash. But the core will...

    Shadowbane tech was god awful, but it had the most progressive PvP ideas to date. You dont know WTF you are taking about. It had a hard core following to the end. and no, it didnt die a quick death. I think it was around for about 6-8 yrs or so.

    Yep, and IMO its a natural and really a logical thing to do. Take for example the Terrorist bullshit since 2001. Who do you think the government profiles? The boarder patrol at the US and Canada boarder for instance. You think they are stopping asians because they think they are al-queida?

    Don't do amd, for gaming the i3 is still the better choice. IMO If I were you is save another $200 and go i5 4670K or scrimp on your video card until you get more cash later. You will get much more longevity out of that system in the long run. Do you have a micro center within driving...

    Yeah the best fun Ive had PvP wise was in Shadowbane. I wonder why no one tried to copy some of their shit. I understand the game was a buggy mess and some of the shit was not balanced perfect, but man, what fun it was to take a mine or attack a player owned city, or just defend one. I...

    Well thats the problem with having everything droppable, tradeable and non instanced that Im afraid will just not work in todays game.

    I know most of us here have been advocating for non- instanced dungeons, but one thing that really was shitty back in EQ was how all the good items in the game were all camped 24/7. And Im afraid that this is what we will get with non-instanced if they go that route. I really liked AO system...

    Youre correlating combat pace to skill. Which is wrong, IMO. You dont need a button mashing marathon while dancing around red blobs of goo on the ground to have meaningful strategic and skillful combat.

    It does not matter if he was home, almost home or going home, running home or walking home. Bottom line is that he turned around at some point, confronted the Zim and cold cocked him and played ping-pong with his head against the concrete..
