    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    It's not just the DPS, healers have to adapt too. I had one run as a tank where the healer stood at max range stationary like you could in WoW. Even knowing this and trying to play accordingly, me and the DPS kept dying because we were out of range. We told him he should be a bit more...

    Me and my friend group all the time while leveling. We actually each have alts we play when the other one isn't on...and we level together 100% of the time on our main. This is probably one of the most annoying game to level up as a duo. We have no issue with phasing since we are always at...

    I expected it to be a short series dominated by the kings, and it was a short series...they did not really dominate although I think it was a obvious that they were a much better team, but somehow rangers manage to give us an excellent hockey. It's scary to think that Kings will essentially...

    Well I ran Stormtalon again with my Esper(dps) with another pug. It went much better, actually it was a flawless run with no deaths. Only the tank had run it before and knew the fights. So it was pretty impressive that we managed it without dying. I have to say that when in a good group...

    I used the dungeon finder for the first time to queue for Stormtalon as a DPS. I was surprised, took about 10 minutes to get a group. I'm an Esper DPS. Everyone was new to the dungeon, except the tank. He's run it a lot, and will let us know what to do...he mentions it a few times. First...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    It's strange to see such positive response to the game at launch. During beta, it seemed most people didn't really like it. It was too much of a themepark, they didn't like the classes, and felt combat was just ok, and a little gimmicky. Now, essentially all the same complaints kinda still...

    EQ Never

    MMO are not on the edge, even most failure bring in money, probably enough in most case to break even and turn in a small profit. Probably an awful return on investment though, but still it's worth pursuing as a genre because the few decent success rake in tons of cash.

    It's not just about game design, bugs and stuff...it's about accounting and cashflow. The company might have certain financial obligation to meet on a certain date and need revenue from the game release to be able to meet them. If they are unable to extend their financial deadline. They...

    Was that sarcastic? ArcheAge has one of the fastest leveling curve I've seen. Might be the most boring quest grind, but it's very quick to get to 50.

    I rolled an engineer, and I am loving it...but hating on the pets. They path pretty badly, and get stuck in combat a lot, which is preventing me from mining. I ended up ditching them right now, and I'm a botless engineer for now...which is still pretty fun...I mean I have a big fucking gun...

    The engineer gets another base ability around level 10 for support. It does less damage than the assault base ability but it generates aggro. Doesn't have a cast time.

    I played an Edgewalker to 50, and I really like it. Your DPS isn't huge, but you have a lot of mobility, CC, Anti-CC and good heals, especially when you get the level 45 heal that can be casted 5 times in a row. In PVP, you're hard to kill.

    That would make sense, so right number of account per server...but higher ratio than the usual 25% or so online concurrently. I mean most paid $150 to be there, make sense they would log on more than typical player.

    I'm curious to what that means exactly. "We've already had to expand the capacity of the server to three times the number of characters that one world is expected to have" Do they mean actual characters...because right now everyone probably has 3-4 alts to test different specs. Or do...

    I don't mind either type of combat to be honest. As long as I'm enjoying it. I've seen good and bad combat of either type, so it's not like 1 type is inherently better.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    I love Edgar Wright but right now I have faith in Marvel. They've been pretty good so far. For all we know, maybe they wanted the movie to tie-in more with the cinematic universe than what Wright was doing, both in term of plot and tone. We will probably never really know...if the movie turns...

    Amazing performance from Tokarski, 2 unlucky goals against him...mind you we got a lucky one against Lundquist. I think we are gonna lose Prust for a game or two for his hit on stepan. Anyways, we now have a serie.

    One thing though, I am 46 with no farms, no donkeys, and haven't done the trade route quest at all yet. I did them on my first character on the west side and just wanted to test a different spec on the east side. I still managed to level, I manage to craft my level 20, 24, 30, 34, and 40...

    The problem with the banana trade route is that everyone needs to do it, and everyone knows the destination. When the game matures a bit, there won't be so many people doing the banana run so waiting at the dock for those people will stop being profitable. All other trade routes have...

    As much as I love Arnold, he's too old for that shit. I wouldn't mind a story where he's old and retelling adventures from his past...with a younger actor actually having the adventures while old Arnold just sits on his throne reminiscing.

    In my limited experience so far, CC in this game isn't that bad, first the duration is quite short with long cooldown, and second there are quite a few CC counters.

    I can't answer for everybody, but for me animation make the combat feels "unresponsive". I hit movement keys, and my character doesn't move...or even turn. I understand the subtleties of the system, I just hate when a game doesn't respond to my input...for me animation lock is the same as...

    It's probably gonna be possible, but you're gonna at a disadvantage versus people who play play farmville. As someone mentioned taking 5 mins a day to harvest your farm and seeding it again is not much, and would be a huge boost to your adventuring income.
