Well, as long as I don't have to branch off into medic or gunnery sgt. to get groups then I'm game. Fuck those whiny ass medics and their I'm the important part of the trinity shit.

I fucking agree. Just glad Miami, Denver, the Seahags, and the Saints weren't made aware of that plan this year. Pittsburgh and most of the NFC is making up the difference though.

I like the comparison to MTG honestly. The easiest and main goal of MTG players is to deal 20-30 damage depending on the relevant format. There are many different ways to accomplish this goal and many different combinations can get this done. If a person wants to play RDW the entire time they...

RG3 was a deal at that price really. The Skins dumped picks to get an electric athlete at the most important position in football. Wilson was a totally unexpected windfall and RG has made Snyder and the NFL millions already. Last year's Skins were one of only three 10-6 teams they had fielded in...

Yeah, lol that's why I didn't put class. Writers like to foam over Kaep, Wilson, RG, Luck, etc but Tanny's been extremely solid so far. Our boys have a very solid chance to beat Atl next week as well. Matty Slush doesn't like men in his face. They are also away from home and have wilted in the...

Shit ending to a great week of pro football. Seeing the NFC East look so pathetic is almost as fun as watching all those new super stud QBs look like shit all day long. Would like to see if the valid complaints of cut blocking ever get any traction. Especially after hearing about Suh all of last...

I've seen many a Q & A as well and many times a vast majority of questions are passed over. No offense to Ut but most of his questions are as bad as a fluff question would be. Does anyone believe Todd Howard would insult these guys? Is the last question relevant to anything? Can the rescrap...

The problem here is support. No big investor is going to give money to a guy who aims small. He has to kickstart this because even SOE is leery. I'd suggest some donations and support when it is finally released. I'll donate. I don't see another hardcore game(of this kind) making a dent if this...

Like you mention, there is no real evidence. Brad's newest game is the game for people who want that game most likely. EQ experimented with changes that did lose a portion of it's audience. At the same time, new subs actually increased the fan base(marginally at first but much higher later) and...

Makes me feel a lot better.

Yes...yes he could.

Did sub rates really drop or even out is the question? They didn't drop. Sure, some dropped but more picked up the slack. That's really the only question. Also, did the highest sub rate occur before SoL or way after? Easy answers here. Etchazz, glad you are back. That's the point. People that...

Etchazz, can you get back on over here please! Quaid, learn how to read a fucking chart! See that little green circle with EQ right beside it? See the greatest number of subs in the 2004 time frame at 550,000? Right around the time EQ2 and WoW were about ready to get released? Can you see...

And I wonder why it stopped being hardcore. Where was the hardcore game that took EQ's place by chance? The industry has tried to display this over the past decade, I've said it many times before and yet it's still like talking to a brick wall. The hardcore game ISNT going to get made. Ok, easy...

If you want to be lazy as a designer, then sure this works. Progress can actually be something beyond a little shiny blue bar moving in small increments. Why should we continue to think so small? People talk about hard gameplay and skill. Vertical games have very, very little to do with this...

I don't understand some of the arguments. I've heard that this isn't new but has parts of other games in it. Some of the things are extremely new. No other MMO has voxel technology or the AI of Storybricks. That's two new hooks whereas most new games only really have one. Throw in the upgraded...

Throw in the PAC money these same pharm companies throw at politicians to ensure they get their money back and I don't fee the least bit sorry for them. Some of these trials changed a lot to keep the research from going bust. There's a reason there are class action lawsuits out there right now...

Hell yeah! Exactly! Why allow countries in one of the most unstable areas in the world nukes? Who wants equality in a region where religion holds uneven sway? These people even hate their religious brothers over some stupid schism of the faith. Why give these people the ultimate weapon? Nothing...

I think some are confused but I have to disagree. The EQ world has 15 years of changes, fluff, and mish mashed history. Lands have changed, Gods have left and re-appeared, fairies are playable, not playable, etc,etc,etc. Which version of EQ gets the most subs? Velious and before, EQ2 version, EQ...

DMK, Good points and I agree with you. I'm not saying that MMOs are awesome entertainment because they give me more for my money. I'm sorry it sounded that way. I enjoy a good book, movie, and football game immensely and some have been far more enjoyable than many of my MMO experiences. At...

Ding, ding, ding! Someone gets it! Also, part of the expense of EQN is the development time spent on EQ3. It may end up being a huge albatross but SOE was willing to invest that extra money doing something different instead of releasing an EQ rehash. It is much more in line with the...

You pretty much already gave the answer. Did I feel like I got $100-400 out of this over the time invested? Was there a better way to spend my money? That will always be the question and if a game isn't worth what I spent on it, that is a very accurate knock on it's quality from my personal...

Easier than any other MMO since they will have people making stuff on EQNL all the time. Same engine, known world and systems, already made a much more ambitious game earlier...yeah, much easier for them like I said.

The problem with the sub model is value. This isn't 1999 and if players are paying for content, then give them content. Even if it's a horrible treadmill, WoW gives a lot of content for it's $15/month. If they want the sub, then they need to make creative content consistently. No color by...

They really should make an updated EQ clone. Before they do that though, they have to try and make a game that will make them a lot more money. The tools are there to update EQ into a somewhat similar experience when they get done. EQNL will make more money than EQ3 would have(the update). EQN...

Hitler did cut manpower and supplies after the Sicily landing by the US/GB. The Battle of Smolensk and Battle of the Dnieper were after this and he could have used reinforcements to great effect. Also, here's a link for what we supposedly supplied to the Russians...

I don't want to sound like an ass but at least 60 million people died in WW2. The Tai Ping Rebellion killed only 20 million. The Mongol invasions lasted at least a century and here's a link to show some 'slight' exaggerations known to occur when historians wanted to get the audience...

I think so, yes. We supplied Russia with a vast amount of needed supplies especially food. Germany was by no means broken after that one winter. If they could have concentrated on Russia (Britain was no major threat), then I don't think Russia would have had the time or supplies to win against...

It just depends on your definition of the industry really. MMORPGs, as classified, may not be the future but MMOs are in some form or other. Digital entertainment will obviously grow but there are many forms of entertainment. I didn't mean to be overly critical, it just sounded funny to hear...

Yes, exactly! International product vs a basically local one. No big surprise really. Those 32 entities don't have to really worry about better competition though and their business is set for a very long haul.

I don't even know how immersion can be used as an argument against a minecraft style building game that proudly pushes the ability to quickly change the environment. I guess knowing what the fuck you are downloading in advance is a plus here?

Found two elven wizards while looking up the site...

Great point and I agree. I don't give a shit if some kid makes Aladdin the wizard genie as long as I can make an evil looking necro. I just want the same options as the kiddies, to make my type of character.

Hmmm, hoping the DEs are a matriarchy and the males are just pussy fodder. My necro was always going to be female and I'm just hoping she can't look as bad as the males. Is it possible? How the fuck can you look evil with that look? Fuck you Jake Sully for saving Pandora and unleashing the na'vi...

Damn! GL to everyone having all those issues and that is truly some shitty CS! Glad I've almost never played during the release(or pre-release) or any major MMOs. GW2 and EQ 2 were the only exceptions but Arenanet really did a great job during the whole beta process and I felt they would...

Adebisi, I'll watch your kid and save you some money too. Let's say $160 dollars daily? I'm twice the daycare pro she was and little shithead can do whatever the fuck he wants. No fucking hotties included but I can get a cheap prostitute to hang out at the front area when you are ready to...

I like your second thought in the quote but just can't see the first part ever being enforced. Every one of those demographics have access to guns in some way or form. I'd like to see those statistics. I'm not against guns at all but thinking that the world is a safer place because of them? That...

I've already applied to the rights for my game "No Game for you!", with some collaboration from Larry David and a few cameo appearances from Seinfeld. Kickstarter of course. Please stop promoting my IP or my lawyers will have to get nasty...

I discover this just as I was planning a trip to Phoenix. Guess it's time to visit Detroit or Chicago then.
