I didn"t have a problem with most of Ut"s posts in the Vanguard thread. There *was* a game, there was a beta going on, there were leaks, there were terrible posts on the controlling theories of the game, faked screenshots of game elements. There was *something* to go berserk over. That...

Krinkled was temp-banned, then edit"d his posts to leave his FINAL MESSAGE, threatening to go off and start his own gaming site, which would be a community touchstone for all gamers everywhere, and would steal all of the discussion from FoH and then we"d learn! *fistshake*

Troll Boss MOB named Utnayan in the Newbie Zone, IMHO.

"Instead of corpse runs, you will reanimate as a zombie and attack your fellow players until they kill you back to life." All of Nebraska"s BBQ places have signed some kind of satanic contract with Cookies. It kinda sucks. At least the meat"s good. Low level boar-hunting quests need real...

Just open a restaurant where each patron pays $3 to sit down, but only one in 5 seats gets a $12 meal!

Full Frontal Nudity confirmed for Copernicus.

Girls can"t make video games, what the hell!

In the WoW Beta next to no one returned the Mug in the Dwarf Newbie zone. Because the magical yellow quest indicator poofed from over his head during the "cut scene," so people ignored it and ran off again. It was so bad the release quest-text actually comments on people forgetting to return the mug

There"s... not even a game shown yet. Not even a fake shell to pull screenshots from to say "WE"RE DOING SOMETHING." All there is is "there"s this MMO, and it"s going to have a story, and MMO features." At least there was *something* to see and call shit on VG. You could at least wait to...

But isn"t that the entire point of the internet?

The Barrens and the Commonlands (EQ2) need to be dragged into an alley and shot.

Brilliant! Obvious ploy to fleece Trekkies was obvious, Cryptic. "Chain yourself to this sinking ship for 6m-Life in exchange for beta access!"

If we didn"t repeat everything every 2 months, this thread would be 5 pages long, Zehn. Also, to get on the MY OPINION IS HOW GAMES SHOULD WORK boat, fuck "press-buttan every second" combat and the VOIP/Ventrillo bullshit it forces upon us. How am I supposed to cyb0r the ML for gear if I have...

The Space Expansion, while its mechanics were fun, came out well after the game was a steaming crater. The mission terminal crap was in from release. Go to mission terminal, accept mission, follow GIANT BEAM OF LIGHT through utterly barren world. Kill 5 wombats that only exist due to the...

"And then some random guys just killed everything that moved, including the child of destiny."

Well, the primary purpose of posting in this thread is Message Board Fellatio=>1337 Beta Inf0z (Or, alternatively, trying to wave an attention whore sign that says HEY, HEY CURT, I KNOW ABOUT GAMES, HIRE ME), just like the Vanguard thread was, so that wouldn"t surprise me. I hope a new thread...

Well, if it"s slated for both computers and Consoles, at least you won"t have to worry about EQ2 "Too many buttons"! Or something.

They made the EXP bonus to the side who won more go way higher than 15%, and it ultimately fucked PVP into the ground permanently, at least on Rimor, since every new player/reroll went Clan for the massive exp bonus, further making it impossible for Omni to dig themselves out of the hole...

Hartsman came into a controlling role on EQ2 late, he was the one who was busily working on fixing EQ2s shit around EoF and trying to shine up the product nice and respectable like. He did a good job. Then he left and his immediate successor lost any trust and/or rapport Hartsman had built up...

"it"s mostly aesthetics" as a cop-out would apply even if you changed genres. It"s all just big pixel-blobs that you wack until they fall over. Story and setting exist to differentiate things, although the RPG part of MMORPG seems to have vaporized in the current generation Gimme my...

Random factor: Since it"s going to be 9 months or so until we even hear what the IP"s name is (judging by them coming into the thread a few months ago and saying it wouldn"t be up for a year), I"d be shocked if the game is out in the next 3-4 years. Unless they"re just playing their cards really...

I am Batman.

Because FPS is the only real skill, bro!

And if we continue down the trail of this thread, there will be 1 class with 24 names! Yaaaaaay! *kermit the frog arm flail*

Instead of the 4 elements, it should harness the power of the Periodic Table of the Elements. FRANCIUM BLAST!

Just don"t try to make an Avoidance Tank Role. We"ve seen how those go.

Boomba the Big. The day EverQuest changed the Dumb Smiling Fatty Ogre character models was the day doom descended upon Sony"s house. Damn you Luclin, damn you forever. (Also, killing the o_O troll face was a slightly less weighty sin, but still abominable) They really need to make it so...

A tectonic map of Azeroth would be hilarious.

The lack of combat healing in LOTR is just evidence that Tolkein sucked at writing Fantasy combat.

I think it was something about making everyone play a single Ur-Class capable of doing everything at once and shooting flames out its arse, with a different name based on your race.

I dislike Ratings because you spend the next expansion gearing yourself back up to where you already were in those stats. It just seems... silly.

Losing your Corpse in EQ1 was that. It rarely happened outside of the "noob" era (aka, after you figured out how to play the game, gained 10-20 levels, had some friends, and finally had shit worth losing) since you had well more than enough time to get it yourself, get a group to help, or to...

Make each boss permanently increase your HP by 1 when you kill them, every time they die! whooooo

Still have to do bear, but no need for Cat and Water. I don"t think you ever had to a quest for Cat, it was just on the trainer. They talked about *adding* a quest for Cat Form a long time ago, but I dunno if that ever went through.

Anything with any >meaningful< power progression will lead to the same content tiering as levels do. No one wants the mage rockin Fireball1, a cloth robe, and a bone dagger for fighting Assrape McGiantLord when the thirtieth upgrade "Blazing Hellfire Inferno of Wonderful Explosivity" is the...

That sounds like a whole lot of server processing//design work for something that half the audience would toggle to "Render 3D Complex Sky--False" in order to not cripple their FPS. Simple works fine, and I trust graphics designers about as far as I can throw them when it comes to making...

Hey, you can bill that as an Immersion Feature.

Pokemon MMO would be hilarious. Since every MMO ever has fuckawful pet pathing issues.

The Barrens and EQ2"s Commonlands need to have their datafiles burned on some manner of pyre fueled by the souls of the innocent.

Honestly, I think the Self-Only benefits of crafting, and limiting the # of crafts a character can know, is what"s kinda fucked up with WoW"s system. Once you reach a certain level, all the BoE stuff stops mattering, and it boils down to what personal BoP benefits each skill provides, and since...
