    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    All they have to do is "prove" that a loss happened. Then they can go Amount of Accounts(Total accounts, not active they will be able to charge them for this) * Monthly Charge, + Lawyer Fees, and any other stuff they throw on it. THJ is fucked.

    So they have mapped fully all 441-pins on the Switch2s CPU/GPU. Some have even gotten them to respond to raw commands during boot-up, they are getting there rofl.

    Daybreak Sues The Heroes Journey EQ EMU Server Devs

    I don't think hosting the EQ client is "expensive". This isn't newer graphics, these are all early 2000 textures/models.. The Issue is they were advertising "Pay-4-Services", I am sure that DBG wouldn't really care if all they were asking for is server hosting costs, but even that it doesn't...

    Funny thing is, its the same "world dev" they had for GTAIII(and I believe Vice City also), that is were the hype came from. But you can't build the worlds that Rockstar builds with off the shelf engines. Hence why GTA6 is taking so long, I bet the story has been finished/re-edited multiple...

    She had a few lines in 7.2 story, but they really pressed that she is gonna be busy, for a long while as they are still working on relations between Tuliyollal and Solution Nine. but ya 7.3 story should be the end of the DT story, and the possible introduction of the new big baddy Necron or...

    I believe Sony hands are tied, wish we could see the finer details of the investor contract but that's hush-hush shit, the only people who really know are the people on the board.

    I laughed at the boss they showed for the Deep Dungeon, just 1 little picture with its face.. rofl The new maps look fun, more mini-games.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    They are already 3.6b into it, so might as well let them try. I'm not sure what the numbers they need are in order for the stocks to become vested, the only thing everyone knows for sure is that they have till June 2026 to hit those numbers. And the latest shit with Destiny has not helped at...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    Single Player ?? ... a fucking campaign would be nice you know cause as they have said "We have so much back story available" Worthless motherfuckers. They also canned the Visual Director that was working on it.. so that answers that question. The new Director is someone who worked on Destiny...

    I would have to check but I believe the battery is the most expensive part of the whole system(right now though they are trying to recoup engineering costs, which at that point you will see a price drop.) Engineering costs for what though.. it's a slightly updated shield with some fancy custom...

    Funny thing about those massive cabinets they had for those 4 player games. I was working at a arcade over summer while they were all being released, we did eventually get that massive X-men cabinet(it had 2 player pedestals 4 players comfortably it even looked like the cabinet had some seats...

    Final Fantasy Tactics - The Ivalice Chronicles

    Or just add a couple more "harder" versions vs what was released in vanilla/WoTL. It seems this is what they did, which is a perfect addition as far as I'm concerned. I'm still wondering about Dark/Onion Knight, and other guest characters..(rumors going around that Clive might even show up)

    Marathon (Bungie)

    So either Sony is playing Bungie overall, and making absolutely sure they get shitted on once the "time allotted" runs out. https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2025/06/13/sony-touts-strong-marathon-engagement-confirms-release-window/ Or they are seriously, out of touch with what has happened.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    They wouldn't really be able to do anything with it.. I mean it would be a fun toy to play around with. But it is considered "bare metal" it is literally just a basic firmware that lets them check hardware initialization very basic stuff, the system would have no key's not even a serial # yet.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    If you have this version of the Switch2, you can't even update it. You will need to trade it in thru the retailer/Nintendo in order to get a properly running one.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Not even 24hrs.. *laugh* There also seems to be some switch 2 that still have the "testing" firmware from the factory, the system was never wiped and reloaded with the release firmware(It has a basic, UI Interface that lets them poke/prod the CPU)

    It will probably be jail broken faster then you think. Still waiting for word on the BIOS/ROM dumps of the systems OS/Hardware.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I was very hopeful when they annouced it, but when they said "Extraction Shooter" .. as I said, "Another corpse for the pile." Fuck'em, hope Sony enjoys the 4billion+ loss between the 2 companies, fucking morons.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    From what I understand about the buy out from Sony, There are milestones/numbers they have to pull in before the stock becomes vested, if these numbers are not reached within the time frame given, Sony can sit there and trash can the whole board and tell Bungie to get bent.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I don't think even a delay is gonna help them.. They need to basically rebuild the game from the ground up, they realized with the test that the game will fail as just a flat extraction shooter(No shit, Bungie.), that was before the art stuff also.

    DOOM: The Dark Ages

    I've been enjoying it, but it needs "more", more glory kills(there is like 2-3?, from what I've seen). Lots and LOTS of story though, think of them extending the Sentinel Prime section of Eternal thru the whole game.

    DOOM: The Dark Ages

    They had been advertising Quake ever sense Commander Keen, I don't remember which one it was but it was a different game vs what was put into the ad within Commander Keen. Honestly Daikatana was more of what they had advertised in the game, vs what was released as "Quake". I think Carmack was...

    They have been very slowly, completely seperate Servers have been worked on, ever sense Wii servers came done. But recently they've ran into a wall, sense one of the devs had access to a SDK for Wii(which is what WiiU/Wii/3DS used for network protocol) nintendo shut the project down.. with...

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Now though you see why they went with what seems like a 100% Online system. The "carts" you buy from stores seem to just have a downloader(keeps the game cart size down for cheaper manufacturing). But gives Nintendo the ability to just straight up black-list Consoles. I hope Nintendo...

    hmm so they have no belief in the DRM scheme.. I wonder how "basic" the system is then. Time till BIOS Dump -> Emulator support.. 2months tops maybe faster.

    hmm looking at the HW X-Rays.. I don't see how Lovelace is gonna play into it, there is very minimal space left over with-in the package its self, with the 8 core ARM(wake up, Hyperthreading is friend for portable power, you don't need 8 physical cores.) maybe a future refresh mid life cycle...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    That just means, they trash canned the old card. Its so they can keep track of what they are using as replacements so when they go to pay AMD for the chips, they can be refunded for the replacement ones.

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I doubt it, the original writers for Marathon and even for Pathways Into Darkness(Never verified as a prequel, but there is a lot of things that appear in Marathon that are from it.) are gone. Durandal vs Tycho would have been really cool seeing it in current game engines...

    Tallest mount they ever had, but I guess the Achievement one(The 500k all DoL/H) is taller. Also all the Disciple of Hand, Cosmic tools actually have the Endwalker + Quality effect.. I'm guessing with all the extra effects they are applying to the tools they just forgot to add the flavor text.

    I wonder how much of it was gutted, after Concord bombed and Sony had to re-think the "Live-Service" model. Seems for it being in dev for such a long time, it has a LOT of missing content.. This is the thing, Bungie has always been king of PvE encounters, while Destiny I/II I don't really care...

    So finally had a Critical, "Red Alert" You will get a 5min warning before it starts, no Mech OPs will run also. Its tied to weather conditions, so I'm thinking after 3-4 different Mech OPs the next weather change will cause it too happen. There will be 2 sets of I'm calling them "Leve Fates"...

    Ya we just did the Cosmoliners also, waiting on next cycle. The new "Levequest" stuff is really cool though, the crafting items are just given to you, and gathering items are just removed when you turn in. Still waiting for a Critical Quest(They seem to be based off of Weather Cycles, and...

    My Inventory/Retainers are very very happy right now .... rofl The cosmopouch is an exclusive inventory reserved for supplies, crafted items, and gathered materials used in cosmic exploration. I still have a shit load of Diadem items just haven't had time to craft it all up.

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

    You are designing a game for a very specific group of people if you are doing it without any kind of Instance system, wouldn't be a tech limit at all(Unless the devs are Copy/Paste Warriors). Its really simple to create instances in current engines..

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    I am done with farting around with linux in general, I just want to play my games without jumping thru hoops, Proton has gotten better over the years, but it's still fucking WINE with a shiny new skin. I'm not having issues with Win11, they just moved some things around not a big deal.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    No glass on my new case. I only see my tower once a year these times, just to clean it out, replace fans that are annoying me and redo thermal paste. I would have just used my old case still, but some odd reason newer CPUs require more airflow.
