They said they're going to offer free transfers once things calm down, but no idea if they are going to keep the 'full' designation as a limit to new character creation. It'd be kind of a pain in the ass if 1 or 2 friends didn't make it on the server and they locked it.

You have to remember that this game started life as just another shitty Rust clone survival game. When they said they were releasing a pee vee pee mmo, people laughed at them and they decided to add all the pve shit into the game. The game has been delayed time and time again and they've...

There are also multiple queues. Sometimes it says queued for open world, and other times queued for starting area. The starting area queues are much lower but seem to move slower than the open world ones. My weight on the S key trick eventually failed when my mechanical keyboard won out over...

I keep a weight on my S key when I afk and haven't been kicked out. Made it through a nice long AFK and then I fast travelled to the hermit, went LD and hit a 1000+ queue. Was fun seeing all the people come in contact with Ut for the first time though.

Is there a board guild on Vinfolf? I went Syndicate, on now as Happybeard.

I mean, the easiest answer is to have 'official' servers that ban that shit and 'anything goes' servers so people can play how they want. That last part is probably the most offensive thing you could say to someone at Blizzard though.

Emet and the Crystal Exarch are both really good in Shadowbringers. Cid during the fucking Praetorium is shockingly awful.

I heard if you change to Japanese voices, the cutscenes are shorter and you can kill the bosses / trash while the english people are still watching. Haven't tested it though.

You just have a different line for where 'old blizzard' is. Blizzard saw the organic growth of SC esports, the trading community of D2 and the success of their 'polish a genre' that Warcraft/WoW had and they decided to formalize that as a company identity. They overdid it after that. I was there...

Overwatch has always represented Nu-Blizzard with it's focus on a community college admissions pamphlet cast of characters. It came out in the peak of 'one game per genre with a focus on esports' era of Blizzard that happened post WoWs ridiculous success. Old blizzard is CRT monitors, pizza...

Asmond is a better story than Rich. Rich was easily convinced. Asmondgold represents the very real contingent of westerners who can't get over the 'weeb aesthetic' and enjoy the game. Asmon was convinced to play and eventually fell to the dark side. I'm sure it's not what vg EB posters would...

It's refreshing how the devs are pretty frank and open with the community. At this point in the Live Letter, YoshiP is discussing why they didn't move to the cloud to solve their server issues and is surprisingly candid/open.

Cover this shit up. Completely unacceptable.

After the whole Tipper Gore PC era, there was significant push-back by entertainment. Things like Politically Incorrect and Tough Crowd came out after that. This time, it feels like tptb are all in on it.

Hopefully he can come back and run a guild on the next TLP launch!

10.2 retcons BfA to be about Azeroth's gender reassignment surgery.

In 10.0 they are revealing that the player character was gay all along.

Reminds me of when I went to my buddy's house and he had a mid 20s hunter in vanilla wow that he had only ever meleed on. As for ilvl, is there really any reason to be pushing ilvl prior to EW release? Once you have enough ilvl to unlock all the raids / MSQ through to the end that is. I made...

That's the WoW patch cycle. 1. Play a lot and stay relevant. 2. "Homework" slowly drifts later and later in the week. 3. Log in Monday night to get everything done before reset. 4. Miss a week and never log in again.

Are people who left Myspace sheep faggot retards? Does that mean you are a sheep faggot retard as well? :emoji_thinking:

Minus the whole . Also I don't know if we're

There have been studies done that show how friendships develop. One of the features was 'repeatedly bumping into one another doing something where the goal wasn't to meet up'. ie. at your kid's soccer practice or ballet class, etc. You can't force people to meet up with the express purpose of...

LFD was added during WotLK. Forced 'group required' content is still present in every single MMO as the top end content available, and it's all popular. The problem is the same problem every MMO has. They are one game for 1-59 and a completely different game at 60.

Seeing other people in the world doesn't change the fact that you're on a dead server if you're forced to guild only with server people and the auction house is server specific. How is there going to be a 'server specific community' if there isn't anyone on the server in the first place? In the...

Maybe that is what people want. A platform to facilitate social interaction in a world with persistent RPG characters. All MMOs would make shitty single player games, and then they all provide wide avenues for people to play solo ie. the shittiest way. Who would play offline single player WoW...

My brain is ravaged by ADHD, so a single combo button would be a big improvement since if I get distracted by anything I end up just starting my combo over again. I also usually start my combo over from scratch when I switch targets on mobs. :cool:

I'm surprised they're still coming out with EQ2 expansions in 2021.

Some of the mods are pretty tame (ERP, hiding people, damage meters). Some of the combo / queuing / mouseover plugins work by basically 'cheating', just within parameters that don't exceed what you could already do as a player. That being said, it's not hard to start modifying those values to...

I would imagine 'EQ with better graphics' would be closer to the TLP experience than P99. You'd expect some development of the original ideas. I'd guess most mean a slower, more deliberate game with an emphasis on social interactions rather than just 'all the cruft of a 20 year old game'. TLP EQ...

Yeah, pull well and you'll get commendations as the tank. Also, people will just click the blue or green if they're going to bother doing commendation. Problem with low level is that a tank has like 10% of their kit. Most of the time in leveling queues as DRK you're running through without TBN...

Did Diadem gathering to grab mats for for 20-70 for all crafting professions. The amount after that goes up to 10 per combine, so I switched over to doing facet/HQ leves using a spreadsheet from the balance discord and it went pretty quickly. All said and done I ended up gil positive.

Leveling via direct queuing highest dungeon available is pretty viable even as dps. I'm on Exodus and usually had 5-10 min queues while leveling. It's faster than potd but doing potd is necessary for aetherarms and unlocking HoH. Speaking of which, I haven't gone back after getting to 40-50...

Thanks for slightly loosening the cuffs daddy. Has Ion made any comment at all? Wowprogress is still saying he hasn't logged into Gurg in 24 days.

At least in Shadowbringers, the quest design doesn't really progress beyond 'run here to see the next part of the story' x 10 and then a dungeon/trial. It's not bad because the story is good, but most everything plays out in the cutscenes. You do very little combat outside dungeons / single...

Endwalker is right around the corner, regardless of WoW being shit. They are offering a service for money and it's their job to provide that service, not mine. I don't care how they do it, but if they don't do it or do it poorly, I'm going to judge them for it. It's the same as WoW devs...

These people have no actual standards / honor / self respect. The only thing that matters is the caricature they put forward on social media. They are larping as strong people.

I know, I work on cloud infrastructure all day. The fact remains that it's a good fit since with an MMO you will always be sitting on too much or too little hardware. You can either plan for xpac launch and then sit on a bunch of idle iron the rest of the time, or have big queues and 'congested'...

BFA and Shadowlands both released without any server downtime, the quest just popped. It went largely without a hitch. I believe the 9.1 release was a bit more rocky but that was more due to bad programming/bugs than infrastructure issues.
