    Disregarding TA is probably the most idiotic move any stock trader or investor could possibly make.

    No one likes having that done to them. We"ve already established that. No one in UO, Shadowbane, etc... ENJOYED being a victim of that. How you go from an option people don"t like being the victim of to outright saying that the ability to do that is the lunacy I"m trying to understand...

    That doesn"t make any sense. TBH, I fucking hate when people loot my items. I fucking hate when people cause me to lose XP. I fucking hate it when I sit in a long time out. But in no way does that mean I hate MMO"s that have item looting, xp loss, and timeouts. Quite the opposite actually.

    The thing that irks me is the blind hope that Brad says will make the VG subscriber base grow. He says shit like "when people are tired of BC" or "tech catches up", that people will instinctively come back/to VG. (page 94 of this thread) Why? Brad, are you going to launch a massive ad...

    Utnayan repeating himself is no different than Brad repeating himself. If I have to hear the "$30 million dollars wasn"t as big as WoW"s budget" opinion bullshit from Brad, then I"m more than happy to listen to Ut tearing him apart.

    Please. The end game will not radically change the review. If it"s a shitty game at the start, it"s more or less a shitty game at the middle, and the end. Player community/drama is a byproduct of the game, not the game itself. I love Shadowbane to death with its player community and drama...

    Even if the only reviews that matter are the 80% ones, 80% games do not make people buy new computers. 80% games are not incredible. They are "good", that"s about it. As for reviewers not able to really review an MMO, that"s more or less bullshit. Don"t fucking kid yourself.In a few hours you...

    Is VG good enough to make you want to upgrade? Are people playing the game asking themselves "Man this game is good but it would be the fucking win if I got some new hardware?"

    Sounds like they are just going to let "time" solve the technology problem. However, time will be causing a subscriber problem. The technology problem wouldn"t be that bad if you could just throw a new video card at it.

    Keyboard + mouse every year actually. They are wear/tear devices that are good bang/buck when replacing them since you use them 100% of the time. Monitors will begin to get upgraded more often now. You can"t just buy a 19" CRT an sit on it for 10 years. Flat panel technology is evolving fast...

    Why all the nerd rage against Vanguard

    Still though, you don"t have a monitor, mouse, or keyboard in your setup either (all 3 are required to play VG afaik.) So your $2600 dollar estimate would be pumped up to more like ~$3k? I dunno about you, but saying you don"t need a $5k system and spitting out a ~$3k estimate isn"t really...

    This is a problem EQ2 had and never solved. Everytime you raid you have/had to drop your settings to to rock bottom. It was quite possibly the lamest thing I"ve ever seen.

    I judge people by their voice and how they speak... just about everyone/thing in the animal kingdom does. Tells just about everything about a person.

    That wasn"t all there was in EQ to survive. In a typical XP group in a dungeon in EQ you had to... watch monster pushes if you were melee", keep looking in every direction for a train, timing spawns in the area you fought at, timing spawns in OTHER areas to steal mobs if you were a puller to...

    It"s cool to have a lot of "unseen" content, but if the hooks aren"t there, if you can"t retain/gain players to see that content, no one will ever see it and it"s effectively lost... That"s mismanagement. I wouldn"t go near the word "potential." That"s like telling customers that buying your...

    No, before a console is publicly released developers get access to "developer kits." This usually starts about 1-2 years before release. As release gets closer, they get their kits upgraded to better resemble the final release version of the console. An MMO developed on a console would have...
