    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I think it's because of people like you that this industry is crap now. You ignore what people are actually telling you to your face, meanwhile saying we don't know what we actually like. You might as well be japanese. Then we get shoved more hub to hub single player questing "mmos" down our...

    EQ Never

    Not sure how this emergent ai works exactly. Does it mean the mob will start ignoring taunts/build resistance to tank hate over a while and just start going after healers? Anyone have an example of this emergent ai at work? So far just seems like a buzzword to me

    What makes you think there are 7 other people around? Half the time I'm one of two or three people online, and pf'ing with randoms that are learning the fight new gets tiresome after a while.

    The designed downtime worries me some. I always want to punch people in the face that use this word, but I have to say I think the downtime is something that has to arise organically from the game world and not be a heavy handed implementation. The good way to put in downtime is increasing...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I just wanted to add - please no mob calibers based on arbitrary categories of 'solo', 'elite/group' etc. Mobs should have a broader spectrum of difficulty including damage, health, etc and not just be portioned off into neatly balanced categories. Let players figure out and use some common...

    The first half is great - the second half isnt what i'd call a 'modern improvement'. It's going to be very same-ish to a lot of other arcadey mmo's unless a lot of care is taken to make it different but also enjoyable. I don't see why we cant slow things down a bit. And I dont mean autoattack...

    How far are we from reaching that sweet spot where procedurally generated is advanced enough to almost feel like custom designed? Imagine a game spawned boss mobs based on environmental factors that varied over time, and also altered the kind of mob that spawned. But was so intricate that it...

    Haha holy shit I know the white guy who's the 'psycho American Inventor' in that video, that's Brent weinbach, he's a comedian, headlines punch line in sf a lot, also does shows in la. Old college buddy of mine too. If you live on the west coast definitely check out one of his shows

    Sensible mob ai should determine leashing levels. Seems like it would be easy to implement. For example a herb of elephants may act defensively, and leash quickly once the threat moves away, and get back with their pack. An aggressive /predator ai may chase further but turn around when they...

    This was a pretty hefty patch. I play a decent amount and all I've done so far is the extremes, ultima, king Moogle once, and ct like twice. Haven't touched the hardmodes, or even checked out housing of Pvp yet, let alone started repeating/grinding shit to any significant degree(minus Garuda...

    Any rerolled bros working on ifrit tonite? I get on too late to run it with fc (11pm PST or so) and I think with the fewer people queuing it, shouldn't be too hard to end up in the same df if we queue around the same time, I'm guessing? I'm by no means an expert on the fight but really hoping to...

    38 studios Auction Nov 14th and 15th.

    It honestly depends on how much money they were away from finishing the project. If it took another 100 mil in loans, then shitcanning it and take the 75mil hit is still the better decision. If they could have had something releasable with , say, another 15mil, then it was incredibly retarded to...

    I would love if they add the ability to make a comment next to a commendation for a player. could be like +/-nets here that way. It seems like they could implement that easily enough. -commendation would be cool too but probably wont go in

    The endgame is sparse but I find the 8man fight very well designed and the difficulty progression is probably the most well tuned I've seen in a game, starting from Garuda Hm onwards. They definitely are off on the quantity/quality balance tho. And the fck melee vibe , which has a rich history...

    Well if ever there was a game designed for vr it would be halflife. Halflife 3 designed from the ground up for vr support.. A person can dream. Although I'd be careful if they add the portal gun with VR. They should just include a vomit bag in the game box
