Probably, but there's always hope. I think GW2 sucked shit after a month because they focused so much on RvR they kind of forgot the rest of the game, and people get bored of zerg base trading after a while.

I think GW2 just had a lot of issues, but for me the WvW was crap. You know it's bad when you are playing and wishing you were back in Warhammer Online.

Also fuck Carbine for not giving me an invite yet!

I thought Draegan was supposed to liquor up one of their devs and get us all in.

I think we need to get him some knee pads so he can get down to work.

Just watched those 2 path videos, I just can't hep but laugh and enjoy their Style, Humor and design.

Would love to see if this game had a tutorial that was like that first video, and you are sitting in class and then have hands on VR training before landing on the planet.


I may actually do fishing if there is even a hint of truth to this:
"Toontown/animal crossing both had good fishing too IMO.Remember tho we are Wildstar so likely you'll be tossing explosives into the water to blow things up or something equally offbeat...unless you're used to getting eaten by mining nodes in other games, we usually have our own spin on it."

Taken from Q&A on mmorpg.

I'm glad they're doing something other than, "Go to A to collect X, then go to B to combine into Y." Fuck that. It's a game, make me play the game for my crafting.

Been reading that the stress test is like 15k people? Surprised to not be seeing more people around here posting about getting in.

So since they are stress testing the servers a release date should be announced soon?

Probably because they picked from the pool that including the fuck ton of people that signed up within the last month or two. RNG fucks you in games and from getting into beta. Yes i'm mad!

I don't think so. It is quite a long way from release, I believe. They just intend to stress test their servers as they go along.

Not true, I signed up last June. So I've waited almost a year for an invite.

Just wanted to chime in on the QQ fest about stress test.

A whole lot more invites? Yeah, sure.

The point was that people who signed up early had no better chance to get in then people who signed up a month ago.

I always end up having to "borrow" a account once someone is done with it, I think the only game I got lucky was the last FF and got in early alpha and of course it was so horrid I quit.

They just said on a stream that they are going to see how many people register by tomorrow and send out more keys as needed.

I will consider loaning out my stress test this weekend as I have to work at some point. Private message me and we can talk.

GD it Draegan!

With as popular as mini-games have become on things like Facebook and the iPhone, it's always surprised me that no one has attempted something similar for crafting - just a little mini-game to determine whether or not you're successful and the quality of your item. Even better was if they made it so you could play it on a mobile device. Log in on your PC and farm the stuff you need, then craft while you're on the can.

I have a feeling the segment of the population that doesn't have smartphones will raise a stink about it. Lotsa whiney people in this world. Good idea though.
