Two months ago GWF was pretty much the best class, did awesome damage and could tank just fine. Pair a GWF with CWs and you didn't even need a proper healer for most of the content. The tanky guardian was almost ignored by powergamers and the rogue was good single target, but lacked AE damage...

Only a dozen levels or so: for what I read and tested, it's a short range (you're there with melees) AE healer, with wide telegraphs, it's extremely mobile and it gave a fun experience, but I couldn't level it much. I didn't like the sound fx of one or two spells (the probes are particularly...

You may be 100% correct, but the vibe I got from the devspeak raid video was more... mocking than serious. I doubt it'll be so hard that 1% of the population will beat raids. I suspect they'll be quite accessible and not overtuned, except maybe the last few bosses. Blizzard used to have gating...

Well, for now classes still need to be balanced, but it's more a matter of tweaking rather than redesigning, for example the Esper, which in my opinion needs to have a couple skills reworked as right now they are nonsensical. There is a well thought out thread on the official boards about...

I think you're correct and I kinda fear that situation, I hope to find some like minded people as soon as possible. Puggers like in WoW makes me cry.

My plan is to max a char or two, do all dungeons and possibily all raids. I'm quite sure the summer entertainment is covered, then we'll see. I'm not one to torn my clothes off in desperation if a game stops being fun for whatever reason.

Esper will be underplayed, but it's the go to tank healer imo. I like all healers to be honest, still not sold on a specific one for release.

Tanks have and must use quite an array of skills to not get smeared on the floor, if they don't, it means that they are either trying to tank in dps gear with a hybrid LAS or are just unable to understand what's required of them (yet). Engineers for example drop Unsteady Miasma that when...

I don't think that WoW ever proved numerically and in a statically acceptable way that reducing raid size (and difficulty) increaded their subscriptions number and/or retention. During TBC they reached and passed the 6 millions mark and if you exclude the oriental market, which wasn't...

I tried to gather healer info and what I got was basically: with Espers you have to target often, with spellslingers you have to aim, with medics you are up close but cover large areas. Medics can also heal shields which is awesome apparently. What I liked with Espers was that I could target my...

If you don't like it, you don't like it, but you are not the representation of all gamers around the world, nor is this forum. There is still a fuckton of people playing GW2, despite what people here think, same for SWtoR. Wildstar is a theme park with quests and a boring 15 minutes tutorial...

There was no switch for Baron Geddon, people either learned how to move away with the bomb or got kicked out from the raid. Game remained good and populated enough back then, didn't it? I don't know why games require a retard mode nowadays, people can learn, at worst they won't do the...

Listen... Scott "Badass" Hartsman posts here, he was a developer and now I believe a CEO of a company making MMOs. While me and others liked some or all the stuff he did, we're not biased towards him just for product quality, but also because he's always been honest and open when he posted, he...

Pretty much agree. Lots of the stuff that pops as interactive, as you say, is usually related to the path items (scientist, soldier, etc.) at least this is what I've seen. The fact it's sci-fi and doesn't take itself seriously with a lot of stuff is a big plus, the high fantasy theme has become...

I played the last 2 beta weekends, fell in love right away. I don't know why, I just liked it, but I like theme parks and quest levelling, so I'm not turned away by those aspects. I find it fun and quite challenging, which is a good thing by itself.

I don't give a fuck to be honest. I think that a man with attributes should stand up in front of the people he fucked over with mismanagement and various bullshit. This fraud on two legs fired people in the parking lot without even showing up (in case somebody forgot), then scam money out of...

Also looking for an Euro Exile guild that plays late nights. I know it's a long shot to ask here, but you may never know. Still haven't picked a class, but I'll probably end up tanking or healing.

Even in vanilla wow you could live with greenies and quest to cap, levelling dungeons are there for fun/challenge, not for loot. Who the fuck cares about level 20 loot? I vastly prefer wiping and learning my way through a dungeon rather than facerolling so I can "advance" towards... what really...

I seriously doubt that Wildstar in its current incarnation is very LFR friendly, if just for the game mechanics, unless of course telegraphs are going to be nerfed to the point you can ignore them all the time. Not saying it's "hard" per se, but it's certainly more engaging than previous MMOs...

I'm also quite an altoholic, which definitely helps with longevity. What tipically bores me to tears in these games is the end game for non-raiders. I have troubles finding decent players that are not assholes, but I'm too old school to party up with youngsters I guess.

How is Wildstar a WoW clone? Is it because of exclamation marks above quest NPCs? Is it because it has tanks and healers? You can use only 8 skills a time, you build according to your role and in some cases to the specific fight. You can dodge out of telegraphs, ala GW2 and can sprint very...

SWtoR cashed in almost 140 million dollars last year, FF14 I'm sure it's doing well enough, these games are cash cows because most of the costs are paid by the initial purchases and then a relatively small playerbase makes the cash roll in. Teso is a buggy game, yet is probably good enough to...

People on this forum have become whiny cunts, or maybe they always were, it's just that getting older and more suspicious about games doesn't help. Most people whined about ESO and half the forum is poopsocking into it now, it'll be probably the same for Wildstar. As I said for it was love at...

I have no running subs and no desire to buy games blindly, let alone if they have a subscription, but admittely, I was intrigued enough to download and install Wildstar over the weekend since I got this free key. Well... love at first sight: I don't know what was it, combat is fun, graphics and...

The lack of options to cast worthwhile shit while moving is annoying, but I always enjoyed playing mage a bit more than I did warlock (destrolock in wotlk was ok, but because it was quite mage-like).

I need to cheer me up, please... say there is a transcript of the interview.

Shaman was already like that for a while IIRC. When I heal I like to alternate my intense phases to "maintenance intervals", because if it's always one or the other, healing gets boring as fuck and tiresome too. During WotLK I was playing resto shaman, which was certainly good, but then I...

You mean EQ 1 button combat vs WoW actually elaborated system? Ahhh okay, I see what you did there. I loved EQ, but it was by far the easiest game to play of all, it was unforgiving about navigation, but combat? Combat was easy, I could box a bard and a cleric without issues in all the...

I stopped giving a fuck about raiding 2 expansions ago, thank you. I find it fucking ridicolous that you have now to do a "test" in order to see the story mode, because it goes in the exactly opposite direction of every single change done to the game's difficulty over several years. Queue "story...

They slowly raped the game for years, making it flat out impossible to die while doing any task (before level cap), while back in the days of vanilla/tbc, it used to be that even in the open world, overpulling was a death sentence unless one was really well geared and even then it was not...

There are no hordes of people on my server, sorry. It has become a shell of what it used to be (and I had a worse rig at the time it was packed full). So yeah, it's very likely that you're right, but I can't test it. For all the games I play, the extremely rare occurences of graphics trying to...

Who do I have to kill to play this game?

You're probably right with FPS in 25 men, but I don't raid really anymore and the 3 runs I did in LFR . I spent most of my limited time in WoW doing old content for shit and giggles. The hamster wheel is fun to ride only for a limited time if I can't join heroic-able raid forces.

I can keep 60 fps all the time, I have an i5 quadcore, 770gtx and a SSD for my Win7 (games are on a different drive, non SSD). I play in 1920x1080 or whatever the fuck is the 24" native resolution. I can mantain this framerate on pretty much every game I have installed, be it single player or...

Fourth is for Rerolled spamming.

VAT, it's just VAT (and shady change rates). Basically, until we get rid of the travesty of a currency that is ? (shitting all over our continent), living in the USA will always be cheaper. Pound users are saved from the ?, but still suffer from VAT fucking up the price.

They did everything they could to drive people away, even rabid fans like I am (or I should say "was"). I asked for loot from bosses instead of tokens, ascended gear not tied to that shitty grindfest almost nobody enjoyed, trash not skippable in dungeons, champion trains being ridicolous just by...

Yeah, life sucks. I want 30 hours long days, so I can play 6 hours more per day ^^

It is very hard to get into the game, meaning that is actually difficult to even understand what you're supposed to do, mostly because the translation leaves a lot to be desired. You can find some good pointers here:Age of Wushu Livestream Beginner's Guide - Age of Wushu Read more Guides |...

Level was 28 or so, definitely chapter 1. Still it was impressive. I've never gone up much in swtor, even if I got recently re-hooked and I'm levelling up when time permits.
