    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I don't know how he ever accomplished anything with the incredibly thin skin he has. Of course, he did basically run from any responsibility in the last 2 games he attempted. Imagine how good this would have went if most of the money actually went into the work instead of his pocket? Same old Brad.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I'm wondering if the little old retired lady suddenly learned about reverse mortgages and is the $50k donation? Brad talks about all the laid off developers but he had the opportunity to hire some of these guys and get some kind of product out there. Instead, he took almost $100 k in a...

    Archer

    Sometimes you have to increase side characters's parts just to keep things fresh. The idea was very solid because I liked old Pam and Cheryl. Too bad they decided to increase their screen time while decreasing what made them funny in the beginning. Having the same jokes over and over while...

    H1Z1 (Not actually an MMO) - Server: Antidote (info in first post)

    I see H1 is going with very dark environments and I'm sure EQN will pull off the same type of environments. The level of accessibility will be different but both games have me excited. Adebisi, I really hope they go in that direction. The constant tension from zombies plus other players will...

    Can we finally shaw the Pantheon thread?

    Lol, well I got one thread shawed so that's something. Still don't know why it can't be put in the EQ subforum with the other EQ related circle jerking.

    H1Z1 (Not actually an MMO) - Server: Antidote (info in first post)

    Not only that but it would be so easy to implement solutions that aren't 'denial of service'. In the early levels have a torch auto included for everyone. People then have the choice of using or not using. Have a limited area of vision like all light sources at night. Have the intro area start...

    H1Z1 (Not actually an MMO) - Server: Antidote (info in first post)

    Late reply but I'd love for my nights to be dark and my days to be light unless there's a world based reason for it not to be so. Do I want some fear in my fantasy based game but it's only allowed in the zombie game?

    They already backed down in Landmark about grappling hooks. If we are loud enough, they probably will adjust the lighting in EQN. I think it's ridiculous to nerf it in one game and sell it in another. On topic, that was pretty nice.

    Can we finally shaw the Pantheon thread?

    Pantheon is dead and all the developers have moved on. Can we do the same thing? The latest group of posts would fit much better in the EQ subforum so move it there if we need to keep that PoS. It's bad enough to hear the same old shit about remaking EQ, it would be a profitable reboot, and all...

    Why would they do all that work for so little reward? Looking though content to dig out the remodels. Using EQMac code, fixing holes, exploits, bugs,etc. Deal with the constant bitching from someone because too much was left in, too little was left in, or something wasn't the way people...

    This post touches on the issues a EQ 1.5 would have. Many people want a harder game with more group focus. First, that doesn't mean it has to be like EQ at all. Second, beyond that point, there is a lot of different parts of EQ that some like and some don't. There are a vocal minority that...

    No more ridiculous than your exertion that just because Eve exists, a game like this has a market. Eve does things a lot different than most of the market and has found it's niche.

    Khane gets it. A game requires work and no one is too ego driven to forget that or not understand that. Brad was in this for whatever he could get. Sure, he had no idea his name wouldn't generate more money. Sure, if he had gotten millions, he would have made something shitty and paid his gang a...

    So, did making the cloak in game constitute more work than Brad did or less? Looking for wagers here. Eomer, I don't think Brad is that incompetent. He's been in this genre for 2 decades. Incompetent manager, sure. The question to ask is, "did Brad ever think a small amount of money would...

    Convo, Normally I'd agree with Eomer as well but he's done nothing at all. Seriously, how could he possibly see this turning out well? There was no planning, no creative property, no effort applied. This isn't some magical fairyland where wishing on a star makes games. He's been a part of the...

    I completely disagree. That's similar to Donald Trump saying he's not sure how US business bankruptcy laws work. He's done it several times and knows how to benefit from lenient bankruptcy laws. He's worked the system. Brad has done the same thing. Several people in the industry have...

    I don't think EQ was amazing either. Amazing for it's time and some solid elements copied from other games but I think the tinted glasses are speaking. Here's how bad Brad is. SOE is trying to do 3 games at the same time and they still let his sorry ass go. There was no room for him with EQN...

    I think the guys on the team are nice people...but a capable team? I'm not sold yet. This project was a disaster and while I blame leadership for most of it...there still wasn't a lot shown from any angle. The PR was awful, the website in awful, the design was meh at best, lore sucked, etc. This...

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    ESO has the same problems as most MMOs over the past decade. It's too similar to the current formula which means it's either too much like WoW for some and not enough like it for others. There's a standard set for this and for many here, it doesn't do enough. I think getting the console gamers...

    I agree with Frenzic. Some of the most devoted fanatics said they donated $250 and would do it again in a heartbeat. They could be lying but then why don't they give a higher figure? I think the $250 figure is from a very select group of people who were hoping for the sun, moon, and stars from...

    I'd love to see where SOE claimed a fully functioning boss, dungeon, etc when they aren't doing that in Landmark. They may have promised a lot, but a lot of people have been playing the alpha for a while. There's a LOT more there than what Brad has shown. Hell, Landmark functions better than...

    Big difference in late promises and vaporware. While SOE is late on all their goals for Landmark and will probably take longer than I'd like for EQN, this thing never showed much of anything. There was a lot of basic stuff done with a few hours of time invested. When your first pics are basis...

    Exactly. Brad has shit on people and their families for years now. He's made millions off the backs of other people's work since the beginning. I have no pity for millionaire scumbags who shit on others for a living. Fuck Brad. With a rusty pole lol.

    Brad was a fool to enter this conversation. He's spent months off before while developing games and this was the perfect time for him to just fade away quietly. Instead he's getting ground up and there isn't one positive thing this interview will accomplish. His only true fanatics are already on...

    No way Smed gives him a shot. First, Brad is allergic to work and responsibility. Second, Smed has solid leadership and better talent already on board. Brad has options in car sales and as a realtor. I'm sure some of the dupes would buy a used car off him if it meant more money for Pantheon...

    Convo, If Brad paid them all 10k then he kept about 50 based off his numbers. I doubt they all got 10k and maybe the numbers were false plants to make the project look better. The underlying theme is the 'game' has been built on lies from the beginning. I'm sure he feels that he deserves the...

    This was a scam from the beginning and there's tons of evidence. The heavy investors were supposed to be part of the development. What part were they in?
