It's complicated. We don't do any big PVE raids because few people want to and almost none of the leadership, including me, likes to do PvE. PRX as a whole is a 100% PVP focused guild and while being able to farm kraken, anthalon and the red dragon would help gear us for PvP, the time...

Yeah but do you feel like your embedded programming / assembly /microprocessor class in college laid out the ground work for your professional ability at assembly? Or did it just make some terms familiar and you had to relearn everything when you got the job?

I've got nothing to add on security. I find security and trying to exploit security generally uninteresting though it is of course extremely challenging. Good luck with assembly, lol. It's nice to spend a semester doing to understand how low level instructions work and to get an appreciation for...

a_skeleton_03's modus operandi: Step 1: Act incredulous that someone would state I make retarded and distracting arguments. Step 2: Equate such a statement with calling Bill Gates a knuckle dragging, mouth breathing, cum guzzling moron. Step 3: Ignore the question posed that would force me to...

I can't even tell waht happened in this chapter.

Full report, courtesy of Ghost: It has been a long time goal since Auroria launch to not only claim a castle for PRX but to also take one by force. With the current siege mechanics in NA Archeage, it is close to impossible to take a castle by siege. It would take outstanding dedication and...

Haha he sounds crazy enough to make this work. And now he doesn't have a wife holding him back.

Yeah from the documents it's not clear if winter means that there's hardly any loot/resources and waves of badass NPCs are popping out of bushes to wreck you while you're just trying to survive Don't Starve style, or whether it means that in winter time all the badass versions of the NPCs will...

A quick note/warning on the 'we're targetting a certain playerbase'. I think it's easy to say when the player base they're speaking of are the only ones paying attention. Cutting out challenging PVE raids removes a huge part of MMOs and the draw for a lot of different players. Same if they come...

Yeah I saw that lore bit and laughed a little. It's true though, but when people really get into the lore of your game it can be fun. The alliance PRX was in, the Covenant of Swords, had some semi-RPers in it that were all "Elven Empire". I think they sort of made up their own language and...

Hopefully machines learn to ignore emotional pain before they learn to feel.

The difference between the team on Crowfall and Pantheon is that Crowfall's team probably has talent and hard working developers. Pantheon has people too incapable or stupid to find a real crew to run with.

Let me just skip all the smoke a_skeleton_03 unconsciously throws up when he gets into retarded-argument mode and jump to his initial point: Do you still believe this, a_skeleton_03? If so you're wrong and I'll prove it to you in 3 lines of joke.

the boots have high heels

Haha when I saw the templar I thought, "Oh nice after playing AA I'm glad to be playing a game with non-retarded armor for women.". Then the high-heeled assassin comes out.

I was wondering, how hard is it for all the random people who get damages from a huge event like that to get compensation for it? Does that taxi-bro have to stand in line and try to get his $4000 for his car from someone dealing with millions of dollars in claims?

You guys should all stop hyping up games and getting excited about them years before they came out!!! However in the mean time....

Yeah I didn't play Eve because spreadsheet gameplay but I feel like Eve, along with Shadowbane, UO and DAoC, is one of the top games that one of their top-level designers should have intimate experience with.

Ned stark

Will take fundamental changes in computing for AI to be dangerous in that manner. It's possible in the next decade we'll probably see some very insidious malware that have complex ways to resist detection and removal and find creative or varied attack vectors. Right now a lot of viruses exploit...

AA was probably the most alpha-experience friendly because of the land-rush and because the alpha players had an idea of what stuff would inflate faster and could invest accordingly. Of course nobody predicted that labor pots would be duped to high heaven and kept low due to incredible amounts...

I am confident the people who play the paid alpha/beta in this game extensively will have a huge leg up on the rest of us. They'll rush and be the first to hit a level/gear soft-cap and then 90% of them will quit and go hype themselves on the next game. Ex: I actually think you spent more...

My expectation is that there will be a set duration, but that amount will be decremented by player events. Ex a guild vs guild world will be spawned with a 30 day timer, but if a guild caps all the keeps on a map that timer decrements by 5 every night instead of 1. If there's an even ownership...

I don't know if I would even want ships in this game. If you're going to have ship combat you need to make it critical to your game like AA and AC4 did. Ship gameplay is a serious investment and you can't just tack it on. I'd rather they focus on making a coherent land-only game before worrying...

To play tuco's advocate it's easier to be transparent when all you're doing is peddling hopium. After they nerf their 5th fotm OP class and missed the 3rd deadline patching a game-breaking bug then we'll see if they're transparent or whether they let a community manager take internet beatings...

damn! Maybe: Search Results - Rerolled ? Gavin, post your story!

Correct. Gavin, look through your 99 posts in this thread: Rerolled And then ask yourself, "Do I contribute anything to this thread?". Step up your game or you'll have the same fate as Sutekh.

Interesting update. Still not too many specifics of how it will be implemented, just mostly vague ideas on ways it could be implemented. Seems like the day-to-day for an organized group of people will be to hang out in some more persistent world then can join a world with varying rule sets and...

People whose opinions of his athletic accomplishments have drastically changed because he got caught doing steroids are very naive.

A big part of my anti-hype attitude and how annoying I am with it is that I want to play with everyone in my gaming community. When my friends all join the game piecemeal through a year long alpha/beta and play for 2-3 months then move on we don't get to play together. I think some people get...

It's not like anything they say about it matters right now unless they come out with some statement that would be super embarrassing if they changed their mind later.

Just seems like a new take on MREs or meal replacement shakes, which are perfectly fine for what they're intended to be. But it takes a special kind of person to live in the most bountiful period of human existence and say no thanks I'll eat this tasteless shit.

No it's not inevitable, just precarious. A MMO needs to have a cash influx somehow to keep producing content after the box sale. I'd rather it just be a subscription.

F2p models are like Jedi with fear in their hearts. It only takes the wrong bean counter to get enough control of the cash shop to maximize near term gains by going full blown sith p2w.

Would be interesting if dying to a zombie had a worse death penalty than other mobs. Players could try using zombies and the hunger as some sort of weapon against each other.

I have a soft spot for Sutekh because he's a badass.

Can't believe silva messed up his cycle so badly. Especially for a return fight against Diaz with a long lead time and layoff.

Making up somewhat boring and believable stories in a serious thread? Like I said before, if you're going to troll at least make it entertaining. This was a sloppy shit of a troll job. I'll let you leave in peace but if you step in this town again you're getting hunged!

Not sure what you mean. It seems like every game out there is trying to microtransact as much as possible. Personally I like the sub-model. The game company is motivated to keep you from cancelling your sub rather than being motivated to get you to keep reaching into your pockets like a...
