Depends what you mean by 'brad mmo.' I told around 12-13 people about this is, all former eq raiders from vanilla-pop days, all of whom were excited to try vanguard before release. All of them loved most of the concepts on this ks - it was in a large way exactly the mmo they've been craving...

How much bigger would you say vanguards game world is compared to say, vanilla wow or swtor? Vanguard did not release any purchasable expansions I believe? So would be a fair comparison.

anyone have a beta key for the pc version? if it is open beta then im not seeing where the popup is to d/l it?

Can someone with a physics background explain why or if it is impossible for a reaction like this to chain uncontrollably and result in the implosion of the planet?

I think a few server merges with the 2.2 patch would be reasonable. It looks like several of the us servers are at one half to one third of Gilgamesh pop

Hm not sure I'm a big fan of them adding the df and echo buff to coil. People waiting for months for that one twintania drop to finally fall for them, will soon see a buncha tards sportin that shit. I guess if you don't get your drop in the 3 month window before the next patch it's almost pointless

Great post, it pretty much sums up why I am a fan of going back to slower combat and all it entails. This 'dodge the red circle' focus of wow and most post wow - mmo's is really what's become 'tedious' to me.

Crap. So I took my free Mage all the way to fire master? Mistake? Only lvl 12 at the moment. Based on the above comments can I now switch to max out dark or too late?

Are there any abilities that allow 2h mace to hit multiple targets? Running into bigger and bigger packs make me start to wish I just got fireball for everyone

Tank/cc/healer is fine but the interaction with enemies leaves a lot of room for improvement. Things like mob ai/intelligence should effect the mobs actions, ie a tank should have no problem keeping an angry elephant on him by getting its attention, but an enemy human caster might quickly...

Is there a relic 2h mace/maul? Just been going mace skill since I started with those. Probably too late to change now

This game has pretty mediocre reviews over at meta critic. A lot of the bigger review places seemed to be comparing it to skyrim and dragon age. It's too bad, since I'd like to see more of these turn based RPGs make a comeback. Even with all the room for inprovement in this game i am still...

hm so i am at the elemental forge at level 10..the assassins are no problem but just got assraped by some of the elementals, basically one shotting my party. Am I just underlevel for them or is there some trick to these?

im also not sure what a runepriest is? Right now i run 2 2-hander barbs for dps, a druid who is doing celestial armor and regen, and a freemage that also does celestial armor but some dps as well. So im in the den of thieves and theres a trap with two gears that flash on the wall - im just...

ah didnt see the numbers. ya i know re: portraits. I was justl ooking for an npc outside the caravan and overlooked the actual entrance.

hm is it only certain times? been at that caravan i think (by that area with the first militia spawns)and not seen anynpcs edit -lol so i beat the light house pedal puzzle but i have no clue how idid it..just ran around till it finally spawned the portal. anyone know the pattern? that last...

so where can you get primemagic to expert? all this unidentified shit is annoying

well one is the tank. the other that seems to do little is my ranger. maybe I didnt put the right stats on things? ive been maxing out perception on her. but her ranged attack is doing like 11-13 damage which seems low. meanwhile my 2h'er barb does around 50 a hit

ya I think i may need to start over..somehow ive managed a group where 1 guy does all the damage, 1 person heals, and the other two are just there to die. Is there a trick to getting the 'tank' to absorb the hits for the rest of the party? doesnt seem to be doing it much, or maybe i dont have...

any way to id stuff without shelling out that 300 gold? edit - ya this game is great. the moment i got offered a choice of who gets to drink that barrel of glowing red liquid i got bigtime flashbacks from like 1993 haha

uh..lol at the cyclops cave. Love how thats right by the starting city. Yea I ignored the warnings What level is that killable at?

this uplay interface is annoying. is there a way to play without loading thru this crap?

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...

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

I wonder if curt had started a 'save Amalur from going under!' Kickstarter, if it would have prevented their demise

Anyone have any beta keys to spare?

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...

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...

What if.. Instead of curt making his own mmo he waited and backed brad's new mmo instead with 30 mil of his own cash and then dozens more he fundraised?

I86 scholar/whm/pld here. Just need to convince my fc to jump ship to a new server, adamantoise is just so dead

they probably have to adjust some of the quasi-pedo disturbing shit that you see in a lot of asian games too (the little girl races wearing bikinis etc)

is gilgamesh a good serveR? I'm trying to get my fc to move off adamantoise because our server pop is bad and hemorrhaging fast. pf has barely a few primal groups even primetime and our fc cant recruit anyone at all with this dwindling population so its become impossible to plug holes from...

Scott, you read these boards still dont you? Doesn't rerolled constitute 'friends and family'?let us in please thanks

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...

I'm trying to pilfer some free wifi that's a bit far from where I'm at. Currently getting 2 bars but connection is a bit shaky especially during the day. Was wondering if anyone here has any experience with some of the devices out there and what is best? Not just increasing bars but something...
