    Green Monster Games - Curt Schilling

    Mary Ann of course, less mileage and more easily trained, and a longer service life. Edit: This is not about which is better, photo realistic vs cartoonish. This is about animating them correctly, making sure their armor fits, their weapons don"t impale them when mounted etc. Doesn"t matter...

    Green Monster Games - Curt Schilling

    Not that I would presume to lecture you, but I think alot of developers and game companies take for granted, just how important our avatars are to us. It"s important how they look, how they sound, how they move, how their armor fits, how their weapons get wielded and so on. Skimp in any of...

    The model looked good as well. Not too real, not too fantasy.

    We all like reading stuff like that. Someone in the know, without their corporate spin hat on, talking to us like we are real people, and not looking at us like we are dollar signs to be won. As I said above, more of that and this would be quite the different forum.

    If you are talking about the Conquest stuff, I was under the impression they were using the bridge to summon aggroed clerics underneath where the mobs couldnt get at them (for a second) and the COHing them to 2 feet away to clear agro. Can anyone clarify ?

    The only reason to unban him would be if he was banned in the first place in error. If he was correctly banned then there is no reason to unban him now is there ? I think theres alot more going on then we are privy too, but the net result: the poster child for the Axis of Equal is allowed to...

    This was an idea floated on the original Sigil boards way back in the early days. As I recall Brad and others got a serious hardon for this idea, but I guess (like everything else) it was too difficult to implement. Can"t have people just building new settlements whilly nilly, fuck no !!

    I agree with the gimp, how the concept of group centric game, gigantic world, and travel restrictions all got approved at the same time just boggles my mind. Why not just have a message popup and say "Fuck you HAHAHA !!!" everytime you activate the LFG tool.

    Why do you feel sad ? The game is launched, there are people playing it, Brad still gets his paycheck and to drive his ferrari, the employees at Sigil still get to overdose on caffiene and decorate each others desks with cobwebs and silly string. I really don"t see how either Brad or his...

    I thought churn was a measure, over time, of customer retention ie: How many cancelled the game. Is that correct ? Does it tie into how many new subscriptions to the game, so like a net sum + or - total subscriptions ? Either way, I fail to see how you can get any kind of valid statistic...

    I just can"t believe 90% or more of his huge wall of text was about reaching the right people and not about the performance / state of his game. He hints about it to be sure (releasing to soon / issues to iron out) but he never really nails it on the head. If his game was balls to the wall...

    Couple points on your excellent post: 1. You are spot on, especially with the "If you try to say man wow sucks" part. Nothing could be more true. 2. I am not sure the VG "faggots" are really "faggots" I just think they feel like got duped, and don"t want to be reminded of it. I also think...

    I am completely dumbfounded, no I am FUCKING dumbfounded, that you are convinced the main problems with your game are due to "not getting the message out to the right people". To paraphase W.J.Clinton.... "It"s the state of your game stupid."

    I wonder how long it will take you to morph from rabid vanguard lover to foaming at the mouth vanguard hater ? At least I remain consistent, if not a bit subdued; they have made progress, and a lot of it. Still it was not release worthy and is a hugely subpar submission given the games pedigree...
