@Whidon currently running around on a new level 7 we bard named Ashbardx. Will probably switch him for kojani human as I don't like the we model. Edit: FWIW, I'm running though the old starting areas - right now doing Raki/Wood Elf (ending with the very cool islands in the sky dungeon)...

At close of beta they gave everyone griffons Kojani goes to around 20-22. There's Ceros Isle which had level 50 content and the random level 50 Ulvaris that used to be (still are) in the middle of nowhere. Not sure if Ceros still has content either. The crazy stuff is that the...

No. Ideally invitation only game.

Kojani human/half elf starter then tseng/ blighted land area. Good to 20 or so.

I generally need all the help I can get, especially from anyone who can properly spell a word like portmanteau and use it in a sentence:-o!

Eh. Once you start pick and choosing your tedium you are screwed. Eventually people will bitch about whatever tedium remains in the game and developers will cave. Things shouldn't be eliminated because they are tedious (book in face) but because they're unbalancing and (book in face opens...

You don't want "unnecessary tedium" which you don't define and which runs counter to your earlier "some tedium" comment. Your post is unclear and farty at both ends. But whatever I think you were the first to realize Pantheon will be vanilla WoW so you are still a winner in my book in the face.

@Khane tedium is necessary. You need lows to appreciate highs. Otherwise you end up chasing the dragon, but never catching her.

I'm okay with this. Increase Chaos, Diminish Order.

Should be spelled Bpocalypse to be clever++

High level wizards can cast a port spell on a predetermined town artifact. Allowing port to a certain location for x hours before needing to be recast or similar temporary passive port functionality. Hilarity ensures when a newbie ports out to what he thinks is a newbie jungle but is...

Beepocalypse is pretty clever. I must say.

Going to roll a new char to do my old fav kojani content one last time but will be looking to group by next weekend.

So they are saying the parasites mutated!?

The emu guys will need lots of data collectors - if it ever comes back up.

I think not... (appropriate funny image here)

lol. Action combat is a hard pass for me usually. Eqn may be the only exception because I want to check out storybricks. Apparently the Japanese version of archage is the tits. Seems like Trion should just copy their changes. Anyway, I think Trion has cash flow issues since defiance...

Big suckage if it doesn't come back up.VGOEmulator.netguys were about to release their vanguard packet sniffer for vanguard emulator development.

Bees Surface in the Northeast - Yahoo Zombie bees today... Zombie humans tomorrow ???

probably not. But the combat us actiony right?

interesting. What about pirates?

I'm pretty sure it will be in the game. And certainly in for alpha. Edit: I thought brad stated they were going to use it for testing at a minimum.

Yes ocean is open pvp, as I understand. Oloh will correct me if I'm wrong. I'm sure So intercontinental ocean trading is subject to piracy. Not sure if intra-continental trading is the same.

There are reviews up - land sieges meh, ocean ship to ship good is the memo I read.

People scream for better AI all the time and go off on how they hate trinity combat. The trinity system was a compromise between player ability and coding an ai players could deal with while still being fun.

Oloh did say the pirates have faction issues with some necessary NPC's. But who really cares if you get to be a pirate.

I don't think most people get your or mkopecs points. -_-

Sometimes you just want to watch the world burn.

Apparently so, but the trade route changes in 1.0 made pirating more difficult or something - something about routes are shorter or wtf. Hard to decipher complaining about a game I haven't actually played ;-)

I was disappointed when I found out the dungeons would be instanced, I'm meh on rng crafting and non-pirate pvp but otherwise seems worth checking out and the ship combat looked pretty sweet imho. Surprised you are so down on it.

I don't think moba to mmo is a good comparison. Buying a champion is not equivalent to buying a mount or XP pot. This where Dumar and I agree, everything that has an actual in game effect should only be obtainable in game. I don't like pure cosmetics, but can live with them. Anything else is...

I'm the first to agree that strong ips can get money from cash shops, but with the exception of tor (which agree would likely have been shutdown) I'm not sure if I agree with the extended lifespan thesis. Lotr had core players that were around before and after the ftp transition. From the sub...

But that shit is not sustainable. The 15/month is. Sure Turbine printed money initially when lotr went ftp but now they're struggling. The idiots who want flames out of their horses ass have ADD and will be off to the next big thing as soon as it hits.

Who cares about Korean monetization. Here the ftp crowd is awful - full of entitled assholes that typify the give me now mentality that is cancer to mmorpgs. Loved reading the idiot on MMORPG who posted about how evil developers are to sell a 60.00 box plus one month subscription instead of...

I'm not convinced that any ftp model MMO can be the next big thing. At the end of the day they always devolve to p2w.

People want both. Sometimes you want to read a book, sometimes you want to be the one to write it.

just wondering about lith's comment. Can't think of any sandbox mmo after that.

Very possible.

When did the swg nge hit ?

Speaking as a non-pvper (I quite Emerald Dream when I was unable to complete my blasted lands quest chain because some goon rogue 4 levels above me sat and camped the area for two days and the horde/alliance imbalance suggested that that problem was only going to get worse) the problem isn't PvP...
