EQ had infinitely more social servers and communities with actual character reputation and interaction. So yes, releasing an MMO with more social and competitive content will work here. It only has to be as good as original EQ in that regard to out preform everything else out there in that...

Lumi big boss

I can attest to people with lack of social skills using the group finder type stuff Shouldn't learning how to socially network be part of the game?

I considered it and given the horror factor of this thread, that's the posting route I chose. A mother couldn't love that face!!!

"I think we would turn it off if we could" roffled my waffles this morning

Still no cutthroat/hc-cutthroat I bet. Pissed me off too!

Can almost always bring back a game as a carry if you give your team good directions to just farm and retreat (read: don't engage outside of a turret) playing blind normals

Hi Sirkdawg

Bet they won't let you in with the bag of rotten vegetables

Except for the pvp server :P

Lot of people wishing every game was a purely PvE game. Ew. They need to be careful in their art design. It had much to do with the faction imbalances in Warhammer. It seems a little too ambitious but I'm following it.

You could reason it that way and move on, yes. However, some flames never die. I will always hold a grudge against them for making the image of "a game like Warhammer would never succeed". At least they haven't raped Dungeon Keeper. Hopefully the War for the Overworld guys are really...

The game's in a pretty good spot right now I'll say. Wish they'd do something with Amumu and the other "given" ban picks. The ban/pick/counter-pick scene in (not trying to derail, remain calm...) DotA 2 is much better.

Think this trying to organize threads stuff might be going a little too far... kinda just gotta let people blab and the ignore button is there for a reason.

It's not quite beta yet but.... it is no longer vaporware.

Well said 2002User.

Unforgivable. Shoulda waited 6 months, shit was in great shape when I came back to poke around and fortresses and shit actually worked. Leveling up through PvP in that game was fucking great times. Why I oughta...

I liked what you tried to do with the zhonya against Amumu there. I'm working on playing support Zyra, and her weakness is definitely "all-in" support types like Leona. She definitely doesn't seal the deal on her skill shots as hard as Blitz, but the poke game is ideal. Might just take...

You gotta do the hover stand and know when this is coming. Fool me once, shame on me.

If xp is too fast you miss out on all the juicy newbie dungeon drama that shapes things later

Banwave should run daily. Too little too late. Hopefully when the timeline server drops, it will be a daily run with public posting of the would be box integrity destroyers.

Compliments of Big Relapse (I would get called out if I didn't cite my source) the ban list from the first banwave: http://pastebin.com/Jbrzfybb Looks about right! Note: does not include people manually banned by a GM.

Whole nother game really. The shit that happens sometimes..

He's not taking the bait. He's had better games as Magnus is all.

Thresh doesn't have the pop up after the grab then silence. Shit's lethal. But I do like him mucho.

I'm back on this bitch. Support - Going blitz atm. Going to get either Zyra, Thresh or Ice Witch when she drops depending. ADC - Varus/Graves AP - Xerath / Brand /Malz Top - Cho (op lol), AD Sion (every now and then is great top), Jarvan Jungle - Olaf (rarely), Fiddle (aw yiss), Rengar...

Thinking about EA Mythic and RIP Bullfrog right now. Think Bank of America wins though. Not sure who sucks more to work for. BoA *seems* legit.

I thought Obama was going to help deal with all these big terrible businesses. HA HA! I'm using the internet.

Epic quests and later a way to preserve your effort in doing them did happen in EQ 2. I never played it that long because most everything was no drop in PvP and I lost interest, but it appeared they held true to their class defining quest roots. These are good design in an MMO regardless of...

There were people crawling around here and there in Nektropos Castle, Runny Eye and the other dungeons on EQ2 Nagafen server. Granted I played a few years back, it was the pvp server and they are the lowbie dungeons.

Dug up Age of Mythology, played a few games against a friend and some co-ops. Would play again (esp HD).

Well pal, I like the game and I think it works on a competitive level. I don't think any of it is really a whine. There's areas where I think the game could improve. Sorry if I offended anyone! Chris here smells a bit of what the Rock is cookin at least.

You say I'm asking for chess on a monopoly board but I'm not. You realize sc2 has things like nydus, drop ships, air units etc. Things that all SHOULD work as balanced between the races on an island game, but they don't. What DOES work is checkers on a chess board right now. Deathball vs...

For the last year and a half I took off from SC2. "The races are balanced against each other on certain types of maps" -> make all the maps this way. It's fine I guess but after 200 games, it gets a little stale.

I would but no real effort was ever made to preserve any kind of balance on those maps. Woulda been nice if they did.

So island maps are bad design? :P I disagree. I think races being non viable on island maps is bad design! My favorite WC2 maps involved taking bases on other islands, or even better, raiding another island and taking it as your base after you wiped it out.

I'm told this is taking a "patch everything approach" and bad design :P.
