    Yeah, I guess that could work. Looks like it"s time to update my resume. I"ve been involved in the gaming industry for 25 years now.

    Does Size Matter

    ...it doesn"t make anyone who claims to have an above average penis a liar either. If I was going to lie about my penis size, I"d do it somewhere other than the FoH board rickshaw. Sorry if you feel insecure. Oh wait, is Cuppycake reading this? I might need to step it up, think Pringles can...

    I love harvesting! I"ll spend hours "picking flowers", chopping logs, etc.. My biggest gripe is when that stuff isn"t worth anything. Like in EQ2 atm... pretty much all T1-T3 materials are useless. I hope in the future in EQ2 they add something like boats, or player built structures which...

    Whoa now, don"t lump me into that nostalgia shit. I"m not playing EQLive with all those guys =P I know myself better than to waste any time downloading the client again and even thinking I"ll last longer than a week. No thankies.

    Yeah, thats what i was trying to make clear to her. I figured he missed your point. I still need to find a damn online VG manual. Nino if your reading this, tell them to put one out. please? lol

    Some people do a hitch spin and get it out of the way, the game seems to have to load everything into memory then the hitching passes for the most part. At least that"s my experience, and it"s much better now than it was. Still room for improvement obviously, but once you get past it, it"s all...

    Sounds like when I made a female character in Oblivion. First thought was "LAWL H0T CHICK INC!" That goal quickly dropped to "Make a female who doesn"t look like she is cursed by years of inbreeding." I failed. She uhh... had a good personality though... despite shooting arrows into people"s...

    I agree. But sometimes, sacrifices need to be made. Problem is, they were made on the wrong end.

    Yep, thanks for the answer kcxiv. Cuppycake, yeah you"re pretty much right about the SV forums...although I"ve been having some interesting hardware discussions on there (their hardware section is excellent). Still, they"re not as deluded as you think. I get the impression that Brad comes here...

    This may sound silly, but I always loved mining. I don"t know why. I just get excited seeing that sucker on my track and swinging that pick. Liked it in WOW. Liked it in LOTRO. What I think the real issue is with harvesting is that it becomes a total necessity for raiding when you throw in the...

    The problem is, some people here make a big deal out of things which are fine, which doesnt help the things that arent. And these people have no idea which is which. ps i think theres more than 10 here that play it..

    Not saying you shouldn"t love what you are doing. But this is above all else a business, and if you don"t have the pulse of the market you will simply fail. And I am sure Brad sold MS on the project with visions of high subs, not hey a few of us love this so give us 30 million bucks to make it...

    Well if you"re using VG as an example I can only say that quality"s a subjective thing. And Maxxius has a point...if it"s not something the public wants to play, it won"t matter if the devs care or not. Ideally, we"d see a combination of market desire and dev involvement, but that doesn"t come...

    Yeah, i can tell some folks take it a bit to seriously. I know VG has problems and that shit needs to be fixed. I am NOT blind to that shit. I am far from a Vanboi, but i do really enjoy the game. I think it has a solid foundation and when everything "finally" gets fixed. Its going to be a...

    Like World of Starcraft? On a more serious note, I have a friend exactly like that, too. He had never really played any video games seriously (dabbled a bit in a few, but never addicted to anything) and certainly never read fantasy books or cared much for Tolkein-esque games. After...

    Actually, Cuppy...the game does have time. A few weeks or so until LOTRO comes out, then it"s "kiss your ass goodbye, Mister McQuaid" and the SOE buyout clock starts up. (I"m betting 6 months)

    The things is that there are so many posters who are giving opinions based on an early beta phase. As I said before, I played in beta and it was so bad I deleted the game off my hd in a matter of days. As many beta testers have said (that are playing the game now), the game is greaty improved...

    Ok there are a few things you can try.. 1. First are you using a Static Size Page file? 2. Does your motherboard have onboard sound and or video? Are they turned off in the BIOS? 3. Do you have the game installed in a separate partition from your page file? On number 3, I personally am...

    And here is the crux of the problem. A person tried something in early beta and expected it to be a free demo of a finished game. It wasn"t, yet they went on and on criticizing the faults of a product that was not finished. People complain all the time about how most betas are just free time for...

    So yeah, I"ll just go ahead and post a convo I had in PM"s with Millie just after I somewhat called her out on her bullshit back in July. That thread is long gone, otherwise I"d link to it.

    Man, I ignored the first response becuase I didn"t really want to derail the thread, but I guess I have to now. Once you and cuppycake gets past your 2-week-nostalgia-induced funness, you"ll realize that EQ1 suffers from massive understaffing and general lack of investment. Once you start...
