Kostika	General: GMs Wanted News Discussion « General Discussion 1/30/08 5:35:38 PM Originally posted by chriswsm Not a great deal of interest to users of this site then really. Only if you don't live in Germany. Luckily this is the internet and people world wide can access webpages.
Kostika	General: GMs Wanted News Discussion « General Discussion 1/29/08 6:04:45 PM It's the same in the UK, which is where Codemasters is located. Wages are rarely ever mentioned in an ad. Usually you hav to contact the company or the agency doing the hiring. It has absolutely nothing to do with ethics and everything to do with standard procedure. So stop grasping at straws trying to mud sling. And I think you'll find most IT and related jobs in the US also don't list the wage they are willing to pay. McDonalds likely doesn't actually list a wage either. They say min wage, which can be different from state to state.
Kostika	General: Microsoft Reclusa: Keyboard Review News Discussion « General Discussion 7/02/07 3:22:02 PM Alot of people use the normal headphone jack type headsets. The USB ones still have problems with some games and programs.
Kostika	Lord of the Rings Online: A Look at the Shores of Evendim News Discussion « General Discussion 6/24/07 8:26:55 AM I try not to comment on my own writing, but I would jsut like to point out that this article isn't a review. Nothing says it's a review. It is only a look at the update, not an indepth review of it.
Kostika	Lord of the Rings Online: Our Review News Discussion « General Discussion 4/24/07 7:25:34 PM Originally posted by Votary How can you rate the community and service as a whole if you played on the EU servers? You should at least state that in your review. I researched and spoke with players on the US servers also in order to get a good view of both communities to give a fair score overall.
Kostika	Lord of the Rings Online: Our Review News Discussion « General Discussion 4/24/07 7:23:15 PM Originally posted by we3ster First of all, I don't play LOTRO and I have no intention of doing so. I do find this review very strange for three reasons:- 1) The game only released yesterday. Is this a review after a day's play of the final release or the beta? 2) If you can get this review for LOTRO out so quickly, where is your review of Vanguard? If LOTRO was given the time frame it seems Vanguard is getting, LOTRO would have probably had 2 FREE CONTENT ADDITIONS by that time knowing Turbine. 3) I play and love DDO and this site gave DDO's graphics a score of 9 which I agree with. How can LOTRO get an 8? They are at least on an equal par with DDO! I left EQ2 to go to DDO and one of the reasons was DDO's far superior graphics and art direction! 1)Please see my above comment regarding how long I've been playing. 2) I don't know. I haven't been asked to cover Vanguard. 3) I also have a DDO account. I agree, it's a good game and looks lovely. I try not to compare games when giving scores.
Kostika	Lord of the Rings Online: Our Review News Discussion « General Discussion 4/24/07 7:19:53 PM Originally posted by Quingu Originally posted by Kostika Originally posted by Quingu sorry but this review rating is BS, the game is bug free, all servers running at release day no crashes, how come they come with a review after a few hours of playing? I've been plaing for the last 10 days on the pre-release EU servers which have now become the retail servers. Plus I also did beta for many months and was familiar with many of the features already. well you should play it again, since you don't even have the graphics high resolution CD, please get it instal and then rate the graphics again. You played the beta not the release ;) I have had the high res pack for the last month. And it is installed. My score of the graphics is a realistic one that doesn't jsut encompass if they're pretty at high resolution. It is a score based on an overall look at the graphics. You are assuming I don't like the game. I do like it. I have a lifetime membership. But in my reviews I will not be unrealistic in my scoring. I am not a fanboy.

Kostika	Lord of the Rings Online: Our Review News Discussion « General Discussion 4/24/07 6:49:31 PM Originally posted by Quingu hmm i checked the other games rattings given by you guys, and most of them over 8 and why only 7.8 for LOTRO, you guys have something against this game? is this game worse then, eq2, wow, gw, daoc,coh,cov, etc? I do my best to give a realistic score.
Kostika	Dude! , not cool! General Discussion « Lord of the Rings Online 4/22/07 5:43:33 PM Originally posted by Mars505 A. all games are being shipped for the U.S. B. EU is a few days behind the U.S.launch A: Untrue. Games are shipped from the UK if they are purchased from the UK. I bought my copy from Codemasters directy and husband bought his from Game. B. Again untrue. If anything we are ahead of the US because our pre-release isn't beta. These are our live servers come Tuesday. Release is exactly the same time for around the world.
Kostika	Dungeons & Dragons Online: State of the Game Address News Discussion « General Discussion 3/08/07 4:48:05 PM I like DDO. I know many don't like the instancing and group heavy quests, but if you've got a good guild it's a great game. I really do like DDo and all those changes are very interesting.
Kostika	Dungeon Runners: An Interview With Stephen Nichols News Discussion « General Discussion 2/09/07 10:04:07 AM Originally posted by XxjagoxX What I'm trying to Say is.. With So Many MMO's Trying to make Games Super Complexx Games that Make u Play none Stop For Hours And have to Read Websites none Stop Just to Learn the Basic's of the Game and what Items there Are u can use and get latter on. DR"S Is A Layed Back game that u just pick up and play, learn as you go. And Have fun... It may Not be for Everyone, But I can see were Ncsoft is going with it Take it for What its worth, Stop trying to Compare it to More Complex games I completely agree. The simplicity is one of the things I've praised about this game too. It's really alot of fun when you just take it at face value. Sometimes you don't need complex.
Kostika	Confined home and would very much appreciate getting an invite General Discussion « Dungeon Runners 1/20/07 5:12:55 PM As mentioned in one of the other invite threads, the invites are on hold. So currently those in beta can't refer anyone else.
Kostika	Ryzom: At A Glance: Ruins of Silan News Discussion « General Discussion 1/04/07 3:18:54 PM I went through Silan with a fine tooth comb, from beginning to end (I'd only poked around with it prior). I hit it like any newbie would. I know how horrible the original starter lands were. I know what is good and bad in a starter area. Just because I actively play the game doesn't mean I can't discover an area like a new player since the area pretty much was new to me. Please tell me, is there something wrong with the article.
Kostika	Ryzom: At A Glance: Ruins of Silan News Discussion « General Discussion 1/04/07 2:45:29 PM Originally posted by Clattuc This is absolutely true, but with a major problem: Those detailed popup windows full of instructions and explanations are gone forever once you close them. You can't look them up again, you can't re-ask the question that triggered them, they're not in your chat backscroll, and there's no "Journal" as in other games where you can reread the details of what you've been taught along the way. Nor is any of that neat new stuff echoed in the in-game Help system or the web-based Documentation tree. This is just a basic example of the gap between the marvelous imaginations behind Ryzom and the nuts and bolts of software support that translate imagination into usability. It's fixable. They just need to do it. Good point there. Being able to review things in a journal would be useful. The help info in game could do with some love for sure.
Kostika	Ryzom: At A Glance: Ruins of Silan News Discussion « General Discussion 1/04/07 2:43:21 PM Originally posted by green13 I haven't tried this Ruins of Silan thing, but I don't recall the learning curve being terribly steep when I tried the game. There were tutorial missions which did a good job of explaining how everything worked. The main reason I didn't stay was the lag. The Ruins of Silan has actually been for quit some time now (since June/July). So depending on how long ago that was, you may have done Silan and not the original starter area since before there were no tutorials and the starter missions were rather useless. (not saying you don't know what you area you did, but alot of people don't realise the area is called The Ruins of Silan)
Kostika	Ryzom: At A Glance: Ruins of Silan News Discussion « General Discussion 1/04/07 1:29:38 PM Have you actually played Ryzom? A majority of my days are spent RPing and talking to my fellow player. We have worship, stories, culture. The difference in Ryzom is that it isn't spoon fed to you. Go read the site's lore. Then go play. If anything, Ryzom is the least combat heavy MMO I've ever played. No raids here.
Kostika	Ryzom: At A Glance: Ruins of Silan News Discussion « General Discussion 1/04/07 1:20:51 PM Go play the Ruins of Silan area with a new char. The missions are the tutorial. If you actualy read the message windows that pop up then you'll get detailed instructions and explanation on how to do all of the skills and how to handle things like stanzas.
Kostika	One word - Diablo General Discussion « Dungeon Runners 1/03/07 4:15:56 AM I said "Diablo-like clone" specifically because it gives people a point of reference for comparison as it is very like Diablo in it's game mechanics..
Kostika	One word - Diablo General Discussion « Dungeon Runners 1/03/07 3:57:36 AM It is a Diablo-like clone. But then I consider that to be a good thing. I'm playing this and enjoying it immensely. It has no lofty ambitions. It's jsut a simple dungeon hack and slash. It doesn't take itself seriously and has a wonerful sense of humour througout the game. I really like it.
