You're talking about the same group of people who came up with "Heroic Movement System".

It is faster. I know, that was hard to figure out. Obviously not, that would be unrealistic and break the immersion in a game about cat people, giant dragons, endless ressurection capabilites and omnipotent wizards.

Let's not talk about that one. Still, Eve is doing pretty well in an environment where everyone else is (or was) trying to catch up to WoW. And if CCP is not completely stupid (and the Rift catches on, instead of being a short-lived fad) they could carve out another niche, maybe even cannibalize...

CCP seems to be the only developer out there, who knows how to give a niche audience what they want AND make millions off of it.

I will gladly pirate it. DA2 was just bad and let's not talk about how they handled Mass Effect 3; it would be very surprising if they've had a sudden influx of talent and common sense over there. Bioware is plain nuts these days.

Where are you getting that number from? I think most expansion packs for EQ2 go for about 40 dollars and unless they've changed everything with the f2p conversion; buying the newest addon will give you access to all the previous ones.

I'm sad. Shooting and movement feel extremely clunky/jerky/awkward and everything at the same time, while commanding your squad in a realtime combat scenario is really distracting. Guess this would have been better as a straight up Enemy Unknown spin-off, sadly it's not.

Might&Magic III - V is where it's at! Screw everything after that, but this might be pretty cool.

The digital storefront known as GFWL is having its plug permanately pulled soon, and the related DRM is being patched out in a number of games Says so in the article hodj linked. Would have been a pretty bold move otherwise, some of these games aren't that old.

Separate classes, obviously. The spellslingers lavaball is in no way, shape or form related to the sorcerers fire- or the wizards magmaball, what are you thinking.

The game's WoW 1.5 with a side dish of GW2 influenced combat. I think most people are just tired of "Collect 10 bear arses and 7 tainted livers" by now; the endgame is hardly going to be some kind of never seen before revolution of the genre. Honestly, it might be fun for a month or two, but...

Because it was fucking annoying as shit, that's why. Try playing any of the Batman games on Steam, what a mess.

If you want to kill reasonably fast, absolutely. Last time i played, i duoed pally/cleric with a buddy and we did some serious shit by carefully managing our cooldowns; was a lot of fun. But if you want some decent dps, switch out one of the healers. I would probably keep the bloodmage, the...

They sure as hell won't deliver on that promise, just like every other MMO developer, ever. As much as i'm annoyed by DLC in single player games, for 15 dollars you could get the Omega DLC for Mass Effect 3. I don't think i've ever seen a monthly MMO update that could compare to that, or any...

Can you actually get "clean" heists in this game? I was trying out a quick single-player mission (to get used to the controls) the other day and the little jewlery store turned into a warzone with dozens of dead swat guys. Eventually i crouched down next to the safe i was supposed to drill...

There's a really old DOS game, called "The Clue" (i believe that was the english title for it) which i absolutely loved. Although you're right, between that and Payday, there's almost nothing.

I will preorder the fuck out of that. Witcher 2 was a definite step-up compared to the first title, so i can only hope CD Project is getting better from game to game. If they're, this bodes well for Cyberpunk.

There's permadeath for squad members, although i don't know yet if that's going to be a default setting or ironmode. Either way, they can die and have to be replaced.

What, he really did pull a "tell that to my face and not over the internet and see what happens"?. I guess he's a special ops super marine commando with 67 belts in various martial arts too.

You can do that, absolutely. If you want to, you can field a bunch of capitals, some carriers for example with a couple of dozen M3s on board, all of which you can outfit/fly yourself if you want to. There really is no limit, you can recreate every single factory, combine them to massive...

Isn't qwerty banned? There's no rickshaw thread about/from him, what happened?

To achieve what? Like it has been said, devs love to be reassured, it is nice if everyone around you says "whatever you're doing, it's just amazing!". Take a look at Dragon Age for instance. Second game was horrible in every aspect, so in a promo trailer for the third, a dev says "we are really...

Yes, that is going to be one of the biggest changes in the game. You can't switch over to another ship whenever you like, instead you have your "mothership" and you can upgrade and expand it over the course of the game. I think you're still able to own additional ships, but can't pilot them...

Can you? Last i heard it would be annoying as hell to get a working crack, but it could be everyone's just not giving a damn about it anymore.

A definite pre-order for me, even though i'm still skeptical about the one, upgradeable ship deal. But who knows if that's going to be the case forever, the X games have a very robust modding community.

Somebody post a picture, for science. I can't see that working out, did not end well in GW2 either, thanks to PvP. If you give a tank the tools to effectively cc a mob, you'd allow him to completely shut down another player in PvP aswell, no way that is going to make it into the game.

I'm glad they're getting rid of mob tagging, this new system sounds much better. Now i hope their tech guys are finally getting some work done before the Beta #4.

I think these things will play out like the dreaded AQ event in WoW. Only SoE would copy something like that.

And every game turning into a WoW slugfest is golden, or what? Besides, we're now going through the motions, that's all. Some people just collapsed under the horror they had to witness, they hate everything about EQN and would not dare touch it in their dreams. Then there's the "rofl lol wtf...

Bah, i'm signed (it even shows my account name at the top) but i'm still getting the "Have a station account already" thing.

Are these beta sign-ups for Landmark only, or for the actual game aswell? Because the station account system being the usual piece of shit, i can't seem to register for the beta on the EQN website.

Fuck yeah, particle effects out the ass, can't see shit but it's flashy! This is like a fucking Michael Bay movie, hide any lack of substance in a bloat of effects and shaky camera :|

The thing i like the most so far is the added depth for the zones, i think that's a nice idea. The rest is lofty promises we see for every mmo out there, so it's wait and see. But fuck the pixar characters.

Ground-targeted spells are in every mmo since WoW ever and both Guild Wars or games such as LoL for example inlcude skillshots, neither alienates the casual crowd. Then again, i'm not even sure if a mmo dev should cater to this audience at all these days. When Nintendo struck gold with the...

Did you include "lol 10 fps and bluescreens" in your equation? And it's kinda funny to see how worked up people got over the course of this thread. Back on FoH there was a small topic about the game, when it was in its very early stages, and everybody was laughing at the WoW clone with its...

SOE should know already how to handle the whole dungeon/instances aspect, they did that exactly right in EQ2. But SOE being SOE, they will probably ignore what they've learned there and do some weird shit instead.

I almost feel bad for Square; they produce a total piece of shit, realise that it won't do and scrap most of the existing game. And even though the re-release is leagues ahead of the original one, it is still an absolute snoozefest. I'd be really surprised if this does well, maybe the FF...

Maybe you don't get it. Dancing through your rotation in WoW was not an issue because a lot of fights were rather static, even with all the aoes. You would step out of a red circle every 45 seconds or walk to the other side of the room. The rest of the time you were mashing buttons in front of...

Don't think this comes as a shocker by now, but the Xbones at E3 weren't Xbones in the first place, not even devkits. Instead, regular gaming pcs with Nvidia cards (as opposed to the ATIs that should be in the console). http://www.cinemablend.com/games/Xbo...rds-56737.html

Skill 1 often works as a resource builder and since there is no autoattack toggle (and the skillset as a whole is limited in number), you best believe that you will be hitting that 1 like a motherfucker. Which is dumb and shouldn't be the case. But for some reason devs love doing stuff like...
