Talking about Keg, WTF happened?

Wow, this thread is solid gold. Wish I could have given Wizardhawk some good advice before Lumie killed him. That's what happens when you piss off the great lizard lords. Lumie, do I capitalize Lizard Lords or do they have official titles and lizard lords is just the generic descriptor...

I think the Warplots are definitely the way to go and I'm actually going to try this game mainly to see what they can get right and improve on from WoW. Much like early AV, they can spread out objectives so that zergs aren't nearly as effective. Then it becomes 5-10 teams of players are better...

Are you talking about the DC or the whole damn team?

I agree. At least EQN is trying to innovate, change things up, and move forward. WoW(in space!) is as cutting edge as a non-stick frying pan.

Sorry to hear that and it's a universal problem in business right now. Short term profit for shareholders is the only true goal for most companies. Global economy has allowed cheap workers to devalue the true strength of any company...the people who actually do the work. Hope you find something...

I wish games would re-use content more. Just likes the orcs, chaos, ratmen, etc build back strength with time in Wahammer fantasy(not the game), they could have dungeons do the same. Wait a couple years for the content to really be used less and use that storyline to remake a dungeon. Make a...

Eli was always overrated. Inconsistent as hell with only a few good seasons in him. That awesome D started to go south, and that team begun to sink.

Dolphins finally beat the Pats. What a game and Brady can suck it. Tannehill was the MVP of the game.

I've never seen the problem with zergs. If the casuals want to be part of the raid, they are guild-members right? If they want to eat a fireball, tail-whip, etc then they weren't a necessity from the start if designed well. I think the after fight victories where a heap of dead are waiting to be...

WOOT!!! That's the best looking PvP I've ever seen except for maybe Warhammer. Shit, where's Tuco...

Brad has always been piss poor at managing his time. I don't see the issue right now because there just isn't anything else to really pine after for a certain segment of the population. There will be a few games to piddle around with until he gets some kind of beta going. The real issue is...

Whew, I was wondering how many would honestly get what Draegan was saying. Good post. No one at SOE or anywhere else gives a flying shit about one person's vision of a game. Saying that you are a tank and every valid argument is moot (because you're awesome buddy!) doesn't change the fact that...

Chuk, Load me up! Poster, nice way to start.

I'm hoping for a mix of non-instanced dungeons as well as the instanced ones. I also want to see just how important world events like city founding really will be. Is it, 'everyone gets together for the really big dragon kill and maybe a few other mobs' or will it be much more? Will there be...

If McQuaid is selling the Hanky Edition, it needs to be strong enough to be beat off in for about 100 days, then washed, and cried into for the next decade. And it needs to be brown.

Good video and while he rambles way too much, he gets the primary point across. Can they deliver difficult content with dungeon finder? And if not, why should I be forced to play a certain way because people need the carrot stuffed into their mouth to get enjoyment? I want difficult content and...

Lol, I don't want that either. I will definitely give this game a chance but I don't want WoW in space. I don't care about how well they market. I want a fun game that offers a few things WoW did really well. Fun, responsive action. A well done environment. Solid difficulty like Vanilla. They...

I have to hope they are aiming higher just because of what you have mentioned. Levels are a good way to see incremental increases in ability but they take the place of skill too often. I'd rather be good than to be high enough of a level. Xp, same thing. I'm hoping they are allowing everyone to...

Ugh, count me out for that. Lets emulate an almost decade old game but this time....IT"S IN SPACE!!!!!!! With really cool and hip vids!!!! Sign on up treadmill kiddies!!!!

It could be a variation of group finder but just because they were added doesn't mean there shouldn't be improvement. There's plenty of people that have watched TV waiting in group finders for close to 45 minutes even in WoW. Plenty of people watching TV while they are supposed to be running...

There is some validity to that statement but EQ was a long time ago and the current system sucks. I don't think giving a bonus to manual grouping will really be that effective and I don't want extra reasons for everyone to be at max in 30 days. Group finder was supposed to bring players together...

I'm hoping that's not true in any form. I think one issue with games now is the lack of player freedom. If someone wants to grind mobs, make it at least a feasible option. Don't use an example like this while having questing give ridiculous exp. Like 5 bear ass variations will net that exact...

Broad shoulders to hold huge pads. Looks right... I honestly have reservations about any game that has to hand hold you even to make groups. If you have to hold their hands for the most basic of social functions(interacting with online people), then I don't have much hope that you are willing...

I agree they should get in but only because they are undefeated and there's literally no other top echelon team that can take their place. They have played absolutely nobody of any true relevance just like they did last year. They deserve it because they are the last team standing. That's it...

Thank you for the comedy gold! Looking at their amazingly difficult schedule, I'm glad they finally played a top team. Two ranked teams on that whole schedule and one of them barely beat the listless Razorbacks this week. Go (home) Bama!!!!!

I just don't see a SEC team getting in this year. Yeah, Mizzou and Auburn are both probably better than OSU overall. The still have that loss. It still counts. OSU may even surprise people. I still hope they get blown out by FSU. Nothing would help vindicate the playoffs more.

Woot, got my Christmas gift early!!!! Fuck you Nickie, fuck you bama fans, fuck you BCS. OSU will probably get shitkicked once again but they do deserve to be there. Undefeated is undefeated and only two teams really deserve to be there. Love me some Auburn tonight and hope to see Johnny...

That's why EQ's tank and spank bosses just won't cut it now. If you make the dungeons and bosses a certain way, it becomes more of botters just being paid players than loot magnets. That probably still will bring in money but there's little the designers can do at that point. You can still find...

There are several solutions that I prefer. One is random loot drops. If gear isn't the primary goal, then decent loot spread out over the world is just fine. A game that doesn't emphasize +gooder doesn't need a constant loot pi?ata everywhere with competitive stats. Decent stats are ok until you...

The biggest reason loot was remembered was the rarity of really good loot at that time. I'd love to see rarity come back and hope to see item progression minimized as a primary form of character improvement in the future. It's easy and noticeable, so I doubt that happens but I'm hoping that EQN...

I don't see that huge of a difference. Both games are no where near finished and people are helping to fund costs. Both require leaps of faith from the people funding the efforts.One is a big developer but that really shouldn't be such an issue since people are willing to spend thousands to help...

Exactly. I'd rather move forward than consider a couple roamers as the variety of my gaming experience. I'm all for variety but lets try and improve the model now. EQN looks like it may actually make things interesting and I'd love to see if Brad will also attempt this.

I don't know how you can say this. Killing the same guy over and over to grind for that one drop you were wanting doesn't seem like the same scene played over and over and over? I mean, when I ground the same 5-8 mobs over and over while sitting in basically the same areas, it never quite felt...

NASA, we have a problem.... In other news Rhode Island political leaders are funding research into the death of David Carradine. Was he really a sexual deviant or did he discover secrets about our Gerbil overlords and was murdered for that knowledge? Funding is in excess of 200 million but...

Hell no! ( lowers cost on ebay to $20 each). I'd never do that shit.

Usually, a person doesn't spend money on something they don't know fucking shit about. Here, I'll even make it easy for your uninformed ass. The game will be FTP(free to play, if you haven't read up on that), and you won't have to spend a dime if you don't want to. Now if you want to spend money...

I didn't play SWToR and after all the shit they did wrong, I feel no loss. Same here after this game goes live. At no point will I think I've missed anything or that my life isn't better for passing this game by. This is the definition of a waste of time and money...on their part and I won't add...

Then why aren't you playing WoW? Seriously, this sentiment makes me LOL. WoW famously has an extremely easy, fast, and generic leveling curve after the original release. None of the expansions were hard and did anyone really find it hard to hit max level? You hit max level in a month MAX and...

I didn't know and thanks. That's some good news.
