Fallen Earth: Balancing Weapons Part Two
News Discussion « General Discussion 4/28/09 3:50:33 AM
So let me get this straight ... The Devs went INTO the game... and looked at it WITH the players... Then determined that their weapon balance was SNAFU and tried to fix it ??? Clearly these devs have no idea whet they are doing, if they realised how Development is meant to work in MMO's they would have simply not logged in, dissmissed the concerns of the players and gone to launch the next week with a 2x price collecters edition and a 3 month minimum subscription. With noob devs like this... the game may actually have a chance |

I am not still green enough to think the meat I eat came from a smiling sheep in a field full of sweet green grass and butterflies playing about the heads of the lucky animlas grazing there... But... I will go without eggs and chicken if I cant verify it was free range, I stopped eating Macs, Burger King, KFC etc about 2 years ago because of this very topic... and again dont get me wrong... I miss my quater pounders badly! I have one simple view... If we are going to kill animals to eat them, the very least we can do is give them the best life we can afford to while we grow them. To me that is nothing more or less than basic human decency. You dont HAVE TO eat meat. I like it, I eat it and I will continue to... but I would survive without it, like we all would. So I try to ensure the meat I eat is as friendly to the animal as possible... as impossible as that is. I simply wont eat anything that I KNOW has been treated poorly. |

ahmagawd I'm playing SWG again...lawl I missed you!!!!! NO WAY ?? LOL Loading I thought you were furniture Im actually homeless right now in terms of an MMO. I thought WHO was really good and the way Mythic managed to all but remove the grind... or at least turn it into a PVP grind was genius... for anyone who is relatively new to MMO's WHO was a godsend... for the rest of us it really was business as usual... I guess Im just waiting to see what Champs and Marvel end up like... not even game to speculate on the new SWG... I default to the quote by the senior librarian in WH40K1... "hope is the first step on the road to disapointment" |

I have "@!#$ buddies" if I want sex.... personally Id prefer to do some more of the side missions in Fallout 3. Lets face it.... if sex was an mmo... we would call it a grind after 5 levels. |

Hey Dek, Riki, Teala.... and noobs Yes Dek first reply and Im getting grief already... my ability to start controversy without even trying has not diminished I moved to another state in Oz and started a new job that has had me more or less on the road for the last 12 months. Marriage got ganked by my inability to behave like a responsible adult and WHO got boring too quickly... that sums up my year of 08 Ive been sitting here wondering if I dare go look in the SWG threads to see if Joker is still foaming at the mouth after 3 years... but I havnt worked up the courage yet. Did I miss anything worth talking about.? Apart from Laura is dead ??? For REAL ?? thats terrible... I still have her on my MSN list and we spoke not far from August..... man Im speechless for once.... |

I give you a few years... then you will have the opposite like me.. "Gaming Killed My Marriage" Personally... Id take gaming anytime |

Yeah just got a reply from them saying they heard it from someone else too.... Looks like urban myth gone mad as per usual. I hate the way I always end up considering going back everytime someone mentions the game though lol...one day Ill get over it. |

Very amusing and pretty hard to dispute as someone who saw Trammel as the begining of the end. But seriously lol.... I have asked them where the hell they got that from and as yet they havnt replied thats why I came here to the oracles of online gaming for the TRUTH! |

Sharing my UO photo album (1997-1999 timeframe)
Britannia Tavern (General) « Ultima Online 7/01/08 11:52:37 PM
Nice pics thanks for sharing. Played on Chessy from late beta through for 6 years. Officer in KEF for much of that. Still miss those days Nothing has ever come close in MMO gaming. |

I just got an email from a friend saying "OMFG UO is closing down for good" So as a 6 year vet who no longer plays I was very surprosed and pretty skeptical because it seemed to be travelling along as per normal last time I looked in and there is no mention of it on the official site. Anyone heard anything to confirm or deny this ?? |

Can PC Gaming be Saved from Extiction?
Off-Topic Discussion « General Discussion 2/19/08 3:34:56 AM
yeah no doubt but its still a fair chink of change at $970mil and I doubt many companies are gonna ignore a market of that size. Id be more inclined toward the beleif that there will be some sort of merger between consoles and PC's not disimilar to the OP's post information. People are not gonna work on a console and and they may game less on PC;s Ideally youd think a machine that could do both well would be the answer. Will it be technically a PC or a console though ? Who knows. |

Can PC Gaming be Saved from Extiction?
Off-Topic Discussion « General Discussion 2/19/08 3:03:06 AM
LOL!! If I had a dollar for every article over the past 15 years both in print and on the net that has predicted the imminent demise of PC gaming.... Id have my own Leir jet on 24 hour standby, piloted and crewed by the worlds best porn starlets who are incidentally excellent jet pilots in their spare time... I reckon the Atari 2600 heralded the end of PC gaming rofl... and its gone all the way to PS3 and will keep going. While we keep gaming. Le' Yawn... |

http://ukpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5g8zQZuuVzwfXYcJ9Oc6x-2gbj6Hg HD was always over rated and over priced. Those of you around long enough would remember my post on this from like 12 months ago. How does 4 more pixels and a barely noticable quality difference compete with lower prices and massively more storage ? |

Hardly surprising. |

Originally posted by musicmannAs if any proof were ever needed that games are all about opinions.... I think POTBS is the biggest breath of fresh air to the industry in years and quite possibly the first of the next generation of MMO's. The level of innovation and risk with this title has not been seen since possibly AO or WW2 Online. Flying Lab have genuinely followed thier heart rather than following everyone elses ideas and they need to be appluaded for it. POTBS is a very enjoyable game and I personally will be playing it when it goes live. Right now the biggest dilema I have is which other subscription to drop..... EQ2 or EVE..... I have so much invested in both but I want to play POTBS too...... Its a nice position to be in though...... |
