The hell they don't. We are their customers. We play their games. I expect full on honesty about what is going into said game, or I call it out because I most likely know 5ethicalemployees working for the schmuck who wants to call that retardation out on the carpet. And reading a review? Shit, give me a break. Those are paid off with preview exclusives for future content from the same publisher asking for a favorable review. Our (customer) fix was to create more home bound forum posting game sites, and they sent in shills to pose as gamers to get people to buy. It's a never ending unethical round trip ticket to stagnation in this completely assinine industry.

As far as my rips on McQuaid, it was because he was coming to the FoH forum to talk about, quite literally,content that did not exist he said was in the game. My sources? Various internal employees that couldn't believe what the hell they were reading. As far as Schilling, same thing. And oh, hey Duppin, you need a little memory refreshing. Schilling didn't start posting here regularly until he formed Green Monster Games. Everything else was hit or miss at best about 10 posts. Get off it.

You know what would be best for everyone? Other than burning this entire industry to the ground and starting fresh? Just having folks be transparent about their product, get rid of company employees posting under pseudonyms (This thread is* FULL *of that) and get back to doing two things. 1) Talk about your product and be excited about the game you are making, but be real about it/prepared to answer questions honestly without the spin. 2) Get rid of the fucking idiots on this forum that think some developer posting 90% spin/conjecture/marketing/bullshit should be accepted as solid content and posters should be able to see through it.

How about it just doesn't happen Mkopec/Peechka/whatever other forum handles you have here on Rerolled and SA? (Oh, by the way, my little ignorant forum stalker, I was banned from FoH for getting ready to call out Requiem on his ad shenanigans. It's why I wasn't allowed back. Of course, we all know how ethical those idiots running that gong show were after Furor left. Get your facts straight)

I wonder how popular a forum would be if that happened. You know why it never will? Perceived infallability within relic management in this genre that has completely stagnated itself since 2004 as a result.

Fuck you morons that think it should be accepted. Go back to the IGN vault forums. Because that's where you belong.
Owned.

I'll predict for Friday:

People who want to play EQN on a console in a console-y way: Joy factor? 110%
People who want to play EQN on a PC in a console-y way: Joy factor? 100%
People who want to play EQN on a PC in a non-console-y way: Joy factor? 50%
People who want to play EQ1 with a new graphics engine: Joy Factor? -110%
I just hope that "console" doesn't fuck up the UI and interaction too much. The first try for FFXIV was just horrid in this regard(ie taking 5+ steps through menus to do something). Even the current re-boot you can see the way console adaptation effects the UI and other interactions(like giving a npc something).

UT's is bipolar I think. He goes from normal cynical posts with good structure and thoughts to bat shit insane,"all I dislike must die!" and rabid dog like posts in just seconds.
I look at UT as more of the Thermostat of some of these threads. He ups the heat sometimes and it's intentional.

Lol. I see what you did there.

Me too. The stress is just too much. I think I might need to help myself with that by buying this new GTX 770. It should help me get up to snuff on the latest hardware so I can play EQ Next.

I also am thinking I may get this. I hear I can add to my DPS by using better in place buttons and not become a "clicker".

What kinds of gaming/mouse keyboards doyouuse to increase your DPS and streamline your frames per second? Hitching without a good GTX 770 from EVGA on AMAZON can decrease your DPS!
idk if that mouse will up the deeps bro i've heard a lot of bad reviews on the nagas never had one tho. I personally have:

with hexcore cpu, 20 gigs of ram, ssd, msi board overclocked w/ water cooling. Good as it gets without going full retard.

No, its more like a bull seeing red, just a mental reaction that can't be helped.

We get Dr. Jekyll for most of the time, then when certain people or things are mention, Mr. Hyde shows up.

What games are you playing that require a $1200 monitor?
Require is a grey word. I have a 24' samsung for like 4 years that is so meh. The reso that monitor gets makes me wet. I just saw a locals 30' ips it was retarded sick. Depends on your cash flow my friend.

I need to upgrade too. Can a 460gtx even run a game like PS2(assuming EQN specs are similar) ? I didn't try. seems to handle FF well..

The real thing to think about is why WOULDN'T you buy one of the few monitors that actually escapse the stagnant 1920x1080 res.

This. I'm trying to not think about it by contemplating buying this g-unit monitor

don't do it, 4k monitors are pretty much right around the corner (there are already a few out) and vastly superior to these. The 4k prices right now are around $3k for 30" but should drop to $1500 and less by end of the year, with a big new crop released in January at CES 2014.

If you absolutely need something new try one of the korean 2560x1440, 27" 120hz beauties. They are absolutely magnificent and running around $400, +/- 50.

Gtx 460 will do just fine.

My old rig running a 9800gtx+ with a phenom x4 920 can even run it on minimal settings.

Also, if you are playing any FPS games I seriously recommend a Benq monitor w/ lightboost. Shits cray.

The 4k arn't coming down until like 6 months from now. I feel you on the 450$ but going from 27 to 30 is actually pretty noticeable. I wanted a new setup back in feb when I built this rig but used my old monitor video card and hd. Pushed the video card and monitor back as far as possible, there's no way I can wait another 6-8 months lol.

Pointing out what a sad little thing you are is pretty pertinent to the discussion.

How do your fellow retired NFL stars feel about Brad McQuaid? Should I ring up Keyshawn Johnson?

DCUO was okay - not great, not even good, but acceptable. I expect something similar. The biggest problem (and I can't remember who mentioned this first about EQN, maybe Quaid?) is that since the console UI is locked the PC gets locked down too. At least, I don't remember being able to change much about the DCUO except the current loadout.

And that brings us back to a comment Agraza or Zehn made years ago about MMO default UIs in general about how terribly stupid it is to have everything you want to see all over the place - map upper right, combat info upper left, hotbar down low, etc. So your eyes have to scan all over the monitor to gather info whereas a good MMO UI would put everything in one corner/side (say everything on the bottom).
