    Im not anti LFG either, its just the way its set up in WoW sucks, and it sucks the life out of that game. come up with something different. How bout when you enter an area the dungeon is in, you turn on the LFG switch and you are then automatically put into a group based on your class. Problem...

    SWTOR

    Again, there was a developer lead that was posting on somethingawful and he said it himself that the number one mistake SWTOR made was focus 80% of the resources on the story bullshit, rather than doing something sensible and going like 50% story and 50% end game.

    Im not saying that games like this should not exist, to me its just not a MMORPG anymore. I just dont think that its good for MMORPG to be heading down that slippery road of LFD and LFR and whatever else they decide to add to the queue.

    while I did enjoy the LFD in WoW last time I played. It essentially turned WoW into a lobby game. All I did was stand in Org and spam LFD until I was 85. And while some of the earlier dungeons were cool, even the dummbed down versions of BRD or BFD...etc. the later ones were nothing but a few...

    401K loans? good option?

    Actually, mine does not work like that.... You may only initiate a loan while an active team member with CKNA. If you leave service with an outstanding loan balance you have the option to continue making loan payments on your own via coupon payments. The fee to convert a loan to coupon...

    401K loans? good option?

    Well that at least makes more sense Corndog. Also Ive read that the double taxation is a myth. This is incorrect, as the only thing that is double taxed is the interest you are required to pay, which is minimal. If you borrow $10,000 from your retirement plan, you receive $10,000 to use as you...

    401K loans? good option?

    Well keep in mind that im on a budget, Im the only one which works so money comes and money goes. The car loan thing at the dealership was all based around a monthly payment, what I could afford, which was around $300 month, give or take, so that basically means I get a more shitty car (around...

    Maybe what he meant to say is that its more hidden than it is in other games where you actually have a kill tracker or a 20% quest item drop rate. Or worse yet competing for kills with 3 other people. I dont know, I dont mind the quests in this game. They are quick for the most part, they are...

    401K loans? good option?

    So why not? What are the drawbacks? Its only a 5 yr loan. so I either lose from the investment or lose my cash to a bank with the 11% bullshit. Granted you do have a good point on the credit thing.

    Im 40 now and I have no plans of retiring in the next 20, lol the way shit is going. Also I have no plans of getting terminated, either. Ive been here for the better part of 8 yrs and I consider myself an asset to the job.

    Meh, I still prefer my games on PC. I hate playing shooter type games with a controller. My fucking thumbs do not work correct I guess and I end up sucking. Trust me Ive tried my kids 360 CoDs and Battlefields and Halos and I just cannot get it with a fucking controller. But thats just me.

    401K loans? good option?

    So here is my situation. Back in like 2009 one of my rental properties we owned went into foreclosure. Shit was bad at the time, we lost a renter and could not replace him, and could not cover the place ourselves. so we ended up losing the property. Credit fucked after being close to 800 all my...

    Thats my guess, but who knows. Anyway, im at 259 ego and the shit is definitely getting crazy. They start throwing tons of mobs at you, snipers, grenades...fuck.. Also did the second co-op mission and it was pretty cool. Better than the first IMO.

    I would hesitate adding tile floor in the kitchen. I did that in my old house and I regretted it. For one, tile can easily chip.

    I noticed this too. I think when I did the breaking into San Quentin (or whatever that prison was) quest is when shit started to get real. The difficulty really ramps up as does the AI it seems. The quest with the 99ers after the prison one was a bitch too, on some dock somewhere? Where you had...

    I buy games which look like they will be fun, and for most part they are, at least for a few months. I cannot actually name one MMO that I purchased that I did not find fun for a few months. (Maybe LOTRO? I dont remeber that one so it must of sucked) Even the one that was deemed the colossal...

    I did the 64 vs 64 one and it was all snipers and Cloak + Detonator. Probably why its getting "Tuned", LoL. I found the PvP fun, but the respawn timer was kind of harsh at 45 seconds. Thats a long fucking time to wait.

    In beta, im not sure what I did or how I did it but I crafted other slots on one of my guns. All guns have 4 slots, barrel, magazine, scope, and stock.

    LOL, I doubt that one multi staged quest that takes an hour would constitute a DLC for $10. What I think is that they will have these episode quests as the show progresses tying into the story of the show. The DLC will be more content in general.

    Yeah, Im not really sure on that. Ive been doing a bit of both. Selling some for cash and breaking down others. Well see when you can actually craft some shit with the resources if its worth it.

    To tell you the truth I would rather get the game cheaper through some other site. You still get the regular preorder bonuses.

    Oh yeah, that change, I thought you meant they changed it recently or something. also a question, how are berzerkers and the decapitate ability? Is it the same as headshot? Also is it humanoid only mobs? I thought of rolling one for a change of pace.
