Go watch Snow White. I have no issue with the character graphics including the Kerran. I do have an issue with the Kerran's armor.

We can only hope :-)

Nah, I like exploring. I'll explore until I get sick of the pregenerated dungeons. Realistically 3-4 months. Same timeframe I got bored in Minecraft. I think they're going to have to do EQ3 given the shitstorm. And frankly, they'd be stupid not to. Instead of 50,000,000 for a AAA title...

SB in Authored Content (EQN Static Quests) This was the example they gave at SOE Live. Developer writes a static quest in a village to retrieve a relic at the bottom of a mine. Other nearby interests want the mine for other things like mining - such as a nearby goblin tribe, bandits and a...

StoryBricks is cool, despite etchazz's remarks. Indeed the ideal EQ3 would be EQN World + StoryBricks + EQLore + EQ/VG Combat.

That's right. Like 42.

Dude, stop with the full retard. There's a bunch of authored content in the game everybody will play it for a while until those of us, like myself, get a little tired of the combat. As for EQ3, we'll see. Why make 2 games using the same art assets, when you can make three. Announce it at...

Storybricks prevents this.

http://darkernet.in/hacking-attack-o...inked-to-saic/ So the NSA is hacking Tor.

It's no longer 1996. Some additional reveals coming at Gamescon and probably PAX.

Maybe Weds. But not much there - they can't talk about much either (NDA with SOE). We'll probably have to wait for Beta to see what's what.

On paper it's a lot more than what you've described. We'll see.

Awesome!

I don't plan on playing a ton of this game so I think my char will be a Kerran monk named Leo to annoy the absolute-EQN hater crowd who will still end up playing the game for a bit as well ;-)

I agree. Maybe in 2016 ;-)

EQN is not going to change drastically. The only hope is that SOE decides to make EQ3 in addition to EQN and EQN/L

Brad as Lead Designer. Someone else needs to be running the show as Creative Director. But otherwise pretty much this.

Could be. We'll see.

Sorta. Talisker said "Smaller raids". Which I speculated as 24 or less. Since that's the standard small raid compared to the usual EQ raid.

SOE really needs to get some better gameplay video up. The current one focuses on sound and fury, not on skilled play.

Dude, it's going to be a fun game. I'm going to enjoy playing it, I think most of the people on this board - even some of the haters - will enjoy it. The two problems with the game has already been identified: -the EQN class system doesn't seem to give one the same character connection that...

This made me laugh. Wish I could +1 you.

They'll get players if they can ship the game. People are bored with WoW and other MMOs and looking for something to play.

I with you buddy. EQN looks fun, OTOH, I really prefer EQ's unique classes and downtime with my combat. As pointed out EQ comba could have used a polish (basically adding in VG's OT/DT to give tanks something else to do, and healers something else to do). That with all the rest of the EQN...

Lol.

SOE won't be selling classes. SOE is going to sell templates, various pots, various looks for your weapons and other shit. There'd be a shitstorm if they sold classes. Also for the people bitching about Blink and ShadowStep being almost the same fucking spell. Give me a fucking break...

I think the whole AQ gonna blow up a embassy some where and we knows because the NSA intercepted their communication is all bullshit to try and stir up support for NSA surveillance of the US. I like how nothing like this happens in the 6 years of Obama then right after the NSA shit is...

maybe.

@poindexter you have 8 skills on the hot bar. 4 weapon, 4 char abilities.

Still not a big fan, but I will say he took the time to answer my questions when I just walked up to him when he was heading to lunch. Smedley and Butler on the other hand gave off the "Stay the Fuck Away" vibe bigtime. You will note, I didn't dispute Ut's statement that Butler was an ass ;-)

That would be awesome.

Yep.

Who cares if Butler is an asshole? Christopher Nolan is an asshole but makes pretty good movies (DKR aside). What do you want? Someone who hugs a lot but makes shitty games? The only reason people read you is because you're an asshole, but an entertaining one. EQN has a solid game design...

There is xp in the game and their are tiers of content and character abilities. It is gear/ability based progression.

Mage groups in EQ could be pretty fun. No such thing as all mage raids. People are going to have to take on semi-dedicated roles to be effective at the high end, if the high end is any good. Again, see Ukerric's post, I think he is spot on. The average MMO player hasn't a chance of being a...

Well, SOE is spreading the FUD for whatever reason as well. Again the comparison between newbie and professional LOL players. Newbie players will play wtf they want and have a tough fight against the beginner bots. Professional LOL will play a specific team setup (jungle, AD Carry, etc) and...

There are some shared skills. They said as much at the panel. Just not a lot.

That is Ukerric's and my point. Yes, everyone can do dps, but at the end of the day, an effective group is going to be trinitized if (and this was Ukerric's excellent point) the AI is good. If the AI is sucks, it's just people standing around and wacking on the target. Basically whether...

Correct. They hit this hard. They go so far as to give different classes different animations using the same weapon and different "ready" stances.

Only if there were a healing mechanic that was offensive. Maybe SK has an offensive Life Steal. So if your rogue got the SK class he could slot the LS as one of his 2 offensive abilities. Rouge never gets a defensive heal.
