If you count his time with EQII, that's about his most notable mess up but I think people just view him as a guy who just spouts out hollow statements. He really hasn't done anything of worth yet but I guess he hasn't done anything horrible either. Though my personal opinion, I blame him for...

Nah i'm serious. There was a time Nagafen had a lot of good drama on it and plenty of board drama. It felt like EQ again lol. The placed was packed, everyone knew essentially everyone on the server. You knew the good, the idiots, etc. It was a really good experience for about a year or so...

I think a mistake we make is the idea just because it may become "hardcore" doesn't mean we have to devote the time. Maybe its good that for once we can't, as my students say, "no life it" for a week or two and max out. I know that it won't change anyone but personally I think it would be nice...

In regards to PvP, I just want it to be meaningful. No beating around the bush about it... I would like to see PvP be for control. If you control maybe Capital City A then this gives you access to certain raids, merchants, rested experience (taverns), etc. If you don't have this capital...

Vit.. you need to consult these guys or something. Can we please get a couple of their guys in here? Anyone got some connections? Maybe our Pantheon reputation hasn't scared everyone off....

This... good points and hope they get it. Otherwise, they'll deflate and have to work twice as hard to get their captive audience back.

I'm having flashbacks of Rift. Don't get me wrong, I loved Rift in the beginning but quickly became bored. In all fairness, maybe I misunderstood the use and intent of the rifts but in my mind I really felt they would be more apart of the game. I remember everyone would run to rifts and with...

You guys have a chance to read this from JTColeman? Kinda crazy....

I'm still curious to what comes out in ~20 days. I'm sure it is going to be the KS but these guys seem pretty creative with their approach. I don't think it will be your typical KS. I think they'll go all out. Then the question will be can the execute on promises. Once the word gets out and...

I'm being completely serious when I ask this... not trolling in the least. How much time would you estimate these guys have invested into created these screenshots. I'm sure they are staged? I'm just curious what these guys did and/or are doing different than what the Pantheons guys did when...

Nice words by Gordon Walton.... but they are just words at this point.

I laughed when I read this... it's true... so true. Just glad to see these guys are taking a more positive tone and using a little marketing sense here in the beginning. Sure, their job is easy now. They are not carrying around much of a dart board right now but we'll see as time goes along.

http://crowfall.com/#/news/update-from-the-founders You know what I do like about these guys? They just seem pretty transparent and straight forward. Maybe it was just Brad, but I always felt like with Pantheon, I didn't "really" know what was going on and what I did know had a good chance...

Wonder if they'll let me buy it? Seriously though... I bet there are people out there that would love to have the rights EQ. Love it, hate it, or given up on it, it has a name and could still be leveraged successful niche game. I would pay to have EQ classic to kick around on. I would pay to...

Crowfall is accepting questions in their "Ask the Team" post on their forums. If you guys want some answers, maybe you'll get some... http://community.crowfall.com/index....-ask-the-team/

Let's just agree to disagree. I don't think the discussion is worth berating each other and claiming "mental problems" or calling anyone "stupid". I played Rift and SWTOR, maxed out multiple characters and was active on both ends of the their model. My point was merely this, i'm apprehensive...

This... In what way? Just getting their numbers back up? Why did people leave? Why did it take the model to revive some of their numbers? It made their numbers look a little better but it was still a desperate move in all cases to keep the games from practically shutting down. So now you...

Completely disagree... By supporting FTP/Microtransactions within the MMO genre you are supporting a business model where it is more important to develop shop items than the game itself. Look at SWTOR and ESO. No one was going to pay to play those games. The only reason to play them is they...

I guess what I was aiming at is the fact a true MMO, with subscriptions, no cash shop, and a lot of classic elements can work. I like the statement above that is justifies the subscription cost. Simply make the game worth paying for and people will pay for it. Don't try to gimmick me so you...

FFXIV, to me, is the closest thing to part II of the MMO genre. It pretty well has all the classic elements with updated graphics and a beautiful, memorable soundtrack. Sure, FFXIV has incorporated some of today's MMO "standard" features but it really felt like a classic MMO (just remove the...

Not disagreeing with your redflags but PoP is probably my top 3 favorite expansions. I know it had its problems and I vividly remember the Rathe Council, flagging, PoT, and all the other issues but outside of the stones kinda messing with the community, I really liked the content and raids. It...

Also want to share some areas of note... (you may draw comparison to Pantheon if you desire) J Todd Coleman | Creative Director "Massive Gamer magazine as the #1 Most Influential Game Developer in the World." Gordon Walton | Executive Producer "He has been VP of online at Origin Systems...

Wait, where's the Unit3D stock art logo/watermarks? I'm just not use to this type of marketing....polished screenshots that looks as if the team held themselves accountable for presenting high-quality, original content. What's up with that? New trend?

True.. I am probably jumping the gun but I guess the last time I experienced going through a "name change", all the signs change to resolve all the legal aspects of the deal and logistics and then within 30 days you had the option to move to Atlanta or find another job.

Art direction is really nice. I'll add this to my radar. It definitely moved up the list now that EQNext is in "who knows" status.

So will they be vacating the premise or will Daybreak assume the lease/rent of the facility?

Man.. everything in the MMO genre is dying. I'm beginning to think this was a product of its time. It really makes me sad. MMO's are almost like what KingsQuest, Heroes Quest, etc. where to us before just becoming obsolete. Could it be it's now time for the next thing to usher in. If...

I don't understand though... SoE has been trying to not make money for years. I was in Software development and administration for around 5 years and maybe gaming is different but I have never seen such blind direction. EQ an EQII could have easily been more profitable and so can EQNext. I...

*Cheers* I'm down for a character wipe. Let's do this!

So how much real estate does SoE own? Offices? Server locations? I wonder how much of a physical move will this require? I'm wondering how much Daybreak even knows about EQ and its legacy?

Sell the rights to some of the classic games. Let someone buy EQ, EQII, SWG, VG, MatrixOnline, etc. Give these games to someone with some passion for the IP and will create something that the players can enjoy.

This could really turn it around for Columbus Nova. Other notes... Can Georgeson... gotta be your first move Focus on H1Z1 and do something with EQ. Who cares about EQNext right now? I'd be surprised if they don't completely scrap it again anyway. Oh and if Rhapsody is your most...

Surely we can some how be one of the Bandit camps right? a Rerolled Bandit Who gets to be the Brigand? I'm hoping I buy my way into being the next Dorn or Dragoon Zytl

I'm not giving Scott all the credit but EQ2 was doing very well under him. Actually, a lot of people missed a great game (for what time it was good) and then it just went downhill when Georgeson appeared. EQ2 was wreck and somehow it became a very solid game until the ponytail just crapped on...

I love how they say "From the studio who brought you X-men Days of Future past", which is pretty well saying "Please don't think of our other movies.... just the good one we made."

I found a similar place... if you take the Northeast road traveling from Pleasant Valley to Hunter Ave, you find a group of 3 houses. There's a fork in the road on the way, take a right, and it is a great run. Always find backpacks, water, food, and car parts. There's also a small community...

Oh man is that good stuff..... I look forward to stuff like this. This is just the beginning. It will get more creative as time goes on.

The only thing i'm tired of is people either touting or pretending (through reception of screenshots, forum posts, or whatever) that they are old school or bringing some type of challenge to the industry. These guys claiming to restore this, bring back that, or be the savior of the genre need...

Do we have a camp yet.. i'm afraid to log in my main until we have a decent size group and a little defense stirring around lol. The game, at least for me, gets better each day. People are coming into their own and some of the social dynamics that made DayZ so much fun is beginning to surface.

Crowbar and wrecked cars. You'll have all the metal you ever wanted.
