And changing them on the fly if they are wasting peoples time.

The only person that could have saved this game is Higby and he ran as fast as he could from Daybreak. Everquest IP will be sold some time after the neutered version of EQN hits your desks. I'll wait to see who picks up the IP before I open my wallet within eyeshot of this title again.

Big post on campaign permanence and stretch goals from Todd: So, I've read a fair number of posts about the temporal nature of Campaigns -- meaning, the fact that Campaigns don't last forever. It seems like some people are confused on the how/what/why, so I figured it is worth discussing...

In comparison to EQN - to stay on topic - 5000 unique supporters in 4 days is way better than 1000 youtube views on the latest Dev Workshop for Landmark and EQN. I don't really know how to answer your statement otherwise. You're right? I guess. Egregious, but not wrong.

The only peace time info was for the bloodstone ruleset in the faction campaign structure. Which is the least risky of all the campaigns. Dregs being the most risky. Can't really theorycraft without knowing how they intend to allow players to protect their stuff in the dregs. If they open...

My point had nothing to do with eventual support, buddy, neither did the comment I responded to with the link.

@tuco Day 3 on banes: No banes described yet as a means of attacking someones property, from what we know all property and terrain is destructable unless protected by a bloodstone tree that isn't producing fruit in the bloodstone victory condition world. So day 3 means go raid nearby...

Bloodmage and Disciple were such good classes design wise, bard song writing, really good stuff. Too bad it was on SoE tech and got choked to death.

800k in 3 days on kickstarter would argue against your sentiments.

out of say 180 skill points, your crafting skills are passively trained up to the 140ish mark, at which point you gain skills from actively crafting. So in a sense yes, the crafting you do in a previous campaign or in your EK absolutely carries over as character power (after a certain point...

Certain archetypes will be able to craft better types of items than your vendor purchased t1 example. Especially considering the bulk of your characters power has been stated to be the skills you've trained/passively trained. So the real analogy in comparison to EVE would be: Your pod goes...

I'm pretty busy this weekend, but I'll try and get to 30 on my cleric by sunday. Depends on how much time I have.

Am I like the only guy here who stuck VG out all the way until the end of the first raid zone (APW)?

Jtodd on Kickstarter hitting 800k this morning: Wow. I'm writing this just before dawn on Friday, Wed 27th. We are now at the end of day 3 of our kickstarter -- less than 72 hours since we started. ...and you guys just funded us! $800,000. That's unbelievable. This is a huge vote of...

Edit: Wrong thread Bards have seemed pretty strong on this server. And pretty popular. Is swarm kiting still a thing?

FFA victory conditions haven't been decided yet. Try not to confuse the Dregs campaign restrictions with the individual worlds/servers that will be inside the Dregs. For Example: World#1 Dregs: Bloodstone victory condition World#2 Dregs: Bloodbath victory condition (top 200 player kills...

Trophies for winning campaigns also add to meaningful continuity as they provide some kind of rewarding boost

Dregs is just the Umbrella for multiple worlds with different win conditions.

No we don't have that info yet on Shadow details.

Wow doesn't have FFA PVP or Friendly Fire at all. (Except for maybe the Glad sanctum brawl thing now) Not a very good comparison on the use of nameplates. Also now... With cross server pvp and instances your name is more worthless than ever. Rarely will you see the same group twice.

Jtodd says the GvG world is as close to Shadowbane as they can get. (in that interview video) hence why it's named "The Shadow"

You lead the way baby

More stuff from Jtodd on Kickstarter money placement: this answer is for two of the posts directly above me (so I'm not going to quote them directly), but the question is "why aren't your first two stretch goals for the additional rulesets?" and it's a great question. Both of these stretch...

I feel real sorry for the people that actually have to wade through that shit man. On another note: Yes, to be clear, we are only promising the EK + Dregs for the initial $800k, so the speed at which we bring the other rulesets online depends on the overall trajectory of the KS campaign...

The official forums are cancer now... jesus. That was fast.

I don't really feel like freaking the fuck out and going berserk on a centaur that runs by only to find out he was in my guild. Nameless PVP is completely worthless. Plus it makes the FFA server a shit-show not having them. **If I ride by and see <PRX>Tuconomics above some miners head...

From the information at hand we have the Centaur as reference. Fastest base movement speed out of all the archetypes. Pretty OP.

How do you expect to play a friendly fire game not knowing who or where your friends are bondurant?

Randomly selected item export huh?

That's because brad literally has nothing.

I hope the lady centaurs don't have any pants. I know centaurs get the fastest move speed. I believe there's talks of them removing the pants equipment slot for the centaur archetype.

Well we don't have enough information to make that judgement yet Quaid. They haven't said anything about nameplates. Dreagan is asking them tomorrow in an interview.

I don't even think I can get in the van without nameplates. Friendly fire makes FFA and GVG (alliances) unplayable without them.

A couple conversations on the official forum. One of them with a poll swinging hard into the no nameplates favor. No dev responses in either of them. We all know what happened last time a company listened to the outcry for no nameplates (ESO) I'm having trouble deciding whether or not I'd...

I'm in love with the old stuff though. So many feels.

Most likely yeah. Especially with such a small team. We don't have enough information to adequately judge this one though. They're touting a large list of features with this game. I really hope Sentry towers with vision or anti-vision upgrades are thing at some point. Rustles my planetside...

Right, and in PoE they have a Hardcore and a Non-Hardcore ruleset for each season. Each with unique attributes and utilizing mechanics from previous seasons. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that whenever a new ruleset gets introduced it "COULD" have a Dark World version or a...

What makes you so sure? Why is it not that likely they would do a no map no nameplates "Dark world?" ala DayZ? Also 3 months isn't a hard number to be basing campaign length on. That's the time limit for the bloodstone world sure. Not all the other ones (atleast not that they've said yet)...

Just have a campaign that has nameplates disabled. Problem solved.
