    His first wife (Lagertha) is about infinty times better looking than Princess Aslaug. Good lord is that a beautiful woman! Very good show, especially considering it is a History Channel production.

    As far as I know, the XP bonus is all about grouping. The more in group, the higher. If you are soloing, you are doing it wrong.

    Lets be honest, the best feature of MQ2 for boxing is the "/stick" command! Holy hell is the game's default /autofollow horrible.

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    I ran MQ2 on KPemu. I probably used it at its most basic level. It was just easier to use a global hotkey to have your box toons cast / heal instead of alt-tabbing through windows. For this reason alone, I liked it. I know MQ2 goes far beyond that and can fully automate. I didn't have any...

    Project 1999 - Making Norrath Great Again

    I rolled red to avoid the blue shitfest at high levels / camp / raidscene. I really don't care about pvp at all. It was simply a population and saturation decision.

    It's like those people who claimed there was no difference between SD when HD came around. I just can't fathom how someone couldn't tell the difference between the two.

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    EQ2's fundamental engine flaw was that it was developed at a time when PC processing power was simply increasing in CPU frequency. Up to that point it was a never ending increase in clock cycles and didn't appear to be changing anytime soon. Well, that is until the early 2000s just before EQ2...

    Honest to god, an SSD has been the biggest leap in computers since the 3D graphics card. Every single person I have ever talked to would never even consider a traditional HDD again as their main OS Boot drive. It's just that noticeable!

    Of course they need a new server. It's this bad now and it's still stagnant Kunark. Can you imagine the shitshow that place will be on Velious release?

    What I was also saying was plug that TV's HDMI output lead into another input source on your AVR. You can use anything you like.

    Isn't part of that the transition to DDR4 memory? When we went from DDR2 to DDR3, the DDR2 prices got higher and higher as supplies tapered out. That said, I know DDR3 is still in 99% of household PCs.

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    Who was the EQ Dev that strolled in here a year or so ago and asked the honest question about "Why are there EQ Emu servers?" and didn't see their appeal? I've no idea how much sway the guy had in SoE, but that absolute cluelessness about your own product says it all to the current team.

    There is nothing stating you MUST use that TV source as your input on your AVR either. I am sure your TV has an HDMI out, just plug it into something else with an HDMI input on your AVR that you are not using. I have also found that you can go deeper into settings and change the input source...

    I agree with your post for the most part, but I think Planetside / PS2 was pretty unique and successful in the scheme of things. What other game has battles on that scale? Nothing remotely close. Despite that, I agree things could have been done better. SoE's complete and utter lack of any kind...

    I think Denon went through a rencent period after ~2010 where only the higher-end models were made in Japan (quality) and the lower-end ones were being manufacturered in China (junk). The brand's reputation definitely took a hit during this period. No idea where the current models are being...

    Wasn't the copy paste itemization put on that fat black dude who went with Brad's pre-evangelical Pantheon dev team v1.0? Regardless, whoever signed off on that horse shit should have been fired all the way up to the top! EQ2 was really a ton of fun in EoF / Kunark under Hartsman. Velious...

    Why are you running sound INTO your TV? Your source video and audio (DVD, BR, Cable Box) should be running into your Denon AVR. The only thing you should be outputting to your TV is video via HDMI. Basically, your AVR should be the common media hub and only have 1 HDMI output from that AVR to...

    You always have the early adopters willing to throw down their money on crazy things like this though. The guy asked if $750 was well spent on a bog standard overclock oriented Classified 980. I said no and still think an upcoming Titan would be a better spend for that kind of money. (All of...

    No shit. Considering the 700 series Titan cards were 6GB and aimed for the upper resolution market, I stand by my point.

    They supposdly have a Titan version of the 980 version coming out. That would have a lot better performance per buck, but you are talking about a card pretty much geared for 4K. Complete waste on 1080p.
