Actually it was Khazad back on FoH and one a former Sigil dev (can't remember who sorry) that laid out exactly what was wrong with VG's engine - I'm just cut and pasting from memory. It's all about the I/O. Anyway, that's why, even if Smed were willing to sell the game, no one would buy it...

That's not him. Denaut works at Funcom or something like that.

Lol. You're such a drama queen.

Yeah, don't buy into Smed's bullshit - expect better from RR posters. Just think about what you wrote for a second and feed it into your internal bullshit detector. What company would run a game for seven years at a loss? None. It was shutdown because COW broke shit that couldn't get fixed...

EQ people will be pissed if raids are < 40. Brad & co. should plan for that as a minimum - I'm not a real raider, but I play one on TV. Edit: @Merlin still funny

Me neither, I always preferred the small group experience. But different strokes - my ideal MMORPG would be majority group content at endgame. One reason I liked Vanilla WoW - a lot of good dungeons at endgame - well until I grew sick of instance running and constantantly losing out to the RNG...

Lol. What the fuck does that mean? That's because you came into this thread the same way Brad came into the kickstarter full of hot air and "lots o' idears" but little actual preparation. Yes we get it. You were on a badly managed EQ+ clone and it didn't work out, therefore no EQ+ clone can...

Denaut you ignorant slut, We were never talking about"people in general" we are talking about a niche MMORPG being developed for a niche audience. If you're going to go Ut on us, at least have the good taste and decency to stay on topic.

Just admit you don't know what you're talking about and call it a day. You are looking pretty stupid right now with the tps reference.

I lold. He refuses to stay on point as Dumar and you point out. This thread is not about a third person shooter MMO

Sure, just as i can point out how full of shit your posts have been from the first "I do so hate to say bad things about people" where you then proceeded to start trashing the project.

Yes, when you are being deliberately stupid by calling Wildstar an EQ clone.

So troll and deliberately obtuse troll? Because I should support the next candy crush saga, which I don't play and have no desire to play instead of old school MMOs that I do okay? How about I spend my money as I see fit, and you spend yours as you see fit. I think that works better.

So you admit you're trolling. Nice.

No. It hitched because it had to load all the art assets from disc - no occlusion - when you chunked. That's why SSD help a ton with performance. There were other issues but this was the bug one.

Okay, who are you really? Itzena? Fess up.

The weird post is word for word (almost) from on old fohguild post. Denaut is trolling, I like how his initial post was "I sure don't like talkn' smack but" and then proceeds to slam brad with info we are already know about.

Now you're just being silly. Wanting non instanced dungeons and an ot dt combat system has nothing to do with teenage sexual experiences. But thanks for playing.

Just pointing out Denaut raised a straw man. There is no group of young devs making an MMO. I'm rather tired of people raising issues that I pointed out before this kickstarter begin as if they are sharing some unique insight. Denaut buddy we know Brad can't produce, we know about the...

As long as Smed is running the place, count on it.

Okay. Please point me too the young developers' old school MMORPG kickstarter so I can contribute.

Just talk about the Pantheon "Talent Tree" specs - bring out the Vanilla WoW fanboys. -_-

Smed wouldn't sell for 2,000,000 or more. It would just show how badly he manages SOE, both SWG and VG could have been 'turned around' with enough investment. He could have rolled back the SWG changes and spent money on moving VG to a new engine.

Journeyman is going to sell out pretty soon.

Ah missed that key point. Thanks.

No way. Disciple is out unless Monk gets in I'll give you dollars to donuts. Monk specialization will be Monk (DPS/Eavasion Tank)/Disciple (DPS/Heal). That's an EQ Healer withplate.

So basically Dark Knight Dread Lord is the Necromancer? /aside You guys are idiots for putting your emails up for bots to troll.

Yep that's the division: VG Cleric, VG BloodMage

No. No. NO. NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo........ (<- tiny O's not periods. Need a 4k monitor to see) Lore should be relevant. I'm not disagreeing that this is the status quo, but I am saying this is one huge area that MMORPGS can actually improve on - making lore that matters.

I don't like the you were a hero bs. Why not just start as a regular Joe? And the PoP Planescape aspect is unnecessary as well. Start in a new fantasy world is enough for now.

Now is the time to pull the kickstarter. Fix things up and then bring it back: with all classes, a complete dungeon fly through and complete details on combat and crafting. Change the name to Wrath of the Fallen. Go for a lower base goal and add more physical swag. And bring on board one...

looks like a 15b yen loss in games on the 6k. Google Sony Edgar sec. For last quarter. Someone else will have to cut and paste the profit and loss by segment section.

SOE moved under SCEI to strengthen PlayStation 3 | Massively Ah SCEI not SCEA - got it. Thanks for the clarification.

Not any more, I'm pretty sure it was split 50%/50% SP/SCEA and is now 100% under SCEA. But same point applies.

They lost 180 million last quarter. Current estimates range from a full year loss of 33.2 billion yen to positive 22 billion yen (around -250 to +200 million) depending, I guess on how the holiday picture slate goes. Movie??Ts Flop Contributes to a Loss for Sony - NYTimes.com Sony Seen...

I'll feel bad for the devs in the slave pits who will suffer far, far worse than smed when soe goes under.

Someone has been working on an emu, maybe now he will get help. http://vgoemulator.net

I'll predict no later than summer 2015 for sunsetting SOE if Sony keeps bleeding money.

You guys are over thinking. Sony is losing money. They just shutdown an entire subdivision and fired everyone incuding the President of that sub division. Most likely SOE gets absorbed by SCEA and everything not also on the PS4 gets shut including EQ/EQ2 by end of this year. Bye bye Smed...

I don't think so. Smed really is the worst, he should have been fired over the swg fiasco.
