Your mission, if you choose to accept it...
General Discussion « Star Wars Galaxies 8/21/06 7:46:57 PM
I agree also with the OP. There is really nothing that is trend setting nor new. Its like a season of reruns that have been showing the same episode over and over again. New name, new dress, same old lady. I do miss that feeling i got when factioning in Ultima Online. I miss that feeling of exploring while I'm crafting etc. I miss the flexibility in how i wanted to play. The satisfaction of turning a pile of rock into some seriously sweet armor through a process that was believable. Then i could sell my wares from my door step or in my house full of rare items that Ive collected through my travels. Miss that feeling like i could actually live in this world. A world not bound by levels and preset classifications limiting only to the scope of the developer cause hes either cheap, lazy or has a power trip during development.
Game mechanics in these new games are crap. Its still the same turn based cookie cutting combat system. Some are so cheap that if you move out of the reach of a creature that is swinging an axe he will still hit, sometimes even 20 feet away. That is utter crap. Then they expect a person to pay for crap like that. I think not, not my cash anyway. Try pvping with a system like that. Times are changing as us older gamers know all too well. With connection speeds running very cheap with speeds as fast as 8mb/768kb and processors and video cards are as fast as they are today and as cheap as they are, you'd think the developers would take advantage of them. They do with graphics and eye candy but the mechanics of the games remain the same game after game. All with the same hiccups and errors and shortcomings. The market is filled with these games, and more are to come. Its a very disappointing time for a older gamer. Thank the maker there are first person shooters. Its no longer about the gamer and his game. Its about the shirt and his money machine. Thats my take on it. Good post OP |

2Moons: Game Announced, Exclusive Interview
News Discussion « General Discussion 8/18/06 2:11:47 AM
Yes, ive posted the beta on OUR teams private forums as well. I like the ideas, im concerned about a few things being that this is a Korean port by design.
David has commented on a few things that spark even my interest, one major comment was what kind of tester he's looking for. Im down for a little old school fun David rock on. Its been forever since ive loaded up Diablo. Even after all this time the game still is addictive and fresh. |

Yea i don't understand bush as of late, you see the video of him trying to give the German lady a back rub...
Anyways bush will be out of office here in a bit. I'm looking at a Giuliani, McCain ticket for the 2008 term. But after all the stuff Ive seen and heard about the Dems, there is NO way i will ever vote Dem. Mertha and Mutt faced Clinton are the worst. I watch them in action nearly everyday on C-span. Makes me sick and embarrassed the way they try to run things. Seems they live in their own little bubble. As for Tony Blair hes got a tough job. But the brits have always been with America and vice versa and it will always be that way. We are blood Brits and Americans. Seems folks tend to forget. Check out Giulianis blog http://giulianiblog.blogspot.com/ Sorry for the off topic post. |

Haven't played the alpha/ beta yet or i wouldn't have posted. I cant say for sure how the games mechanics are. With that said. There are many titles out that are FREE with online shops you use real money for. Now they want to add both a monthly fee and a money shop. What happened to good old fashion player balance.
This title as its explained doesn't do anything the rest of the cookie cutter mmogs out there don't do. Now they want to offer you buy your way to the end game. Why even play it. There is no common balance with all the players. These developers sure know how to kill them selves even before they get going don't they. We will be seeing this advertising free game trials probably faster then D&D online did. |

No pvping
No destroyable cities.I mean why build a little town and not destroy it? I mean what is there to do after you grind to death to build it? How about a reason to craft. i mean you grind all that time for what? to sell to whom? No real endgame at all. blight attacks set off by the developers, its not AI controlled right. so everything is predictable. The game was made to be a kick ass pvping game by design. instead it was turned into a marshmallow joke that no one really cared for. I mean what really is there that is worth paying a fee for? The games mechanics are garbage and would need a total overhaul. Even still the game will never recover. Its better to build something competitive to go along with such a nice crafting system. |

Israel attacks Lebanon, leaving many dead
Off-Topic Discussion « General Discussion 7/21/06 8:19:50 AM
I support Israel 100% Its long time coming.
Israel Gave up the land and still the Islamic terrorists invade and attack Israel and snatch soldiers and kill several. Sorry if that happened here in America, we would decimate your country plain and simple. Lebanon allowed Hezbollah or what ever you call it to remain in lebanon. These terrorist factions became members of the government of lebanon. Since they are part of the government even now they have attacked another country creating a all out war. The these terrorist factions put normal people in danger by building and firing rockets into Israel. How did they get those rockets? Why do they put the civilians lives in jeopardy. why hasn't the government of lebanon done anything to make sure their poor people are safe from harm? Lebanon brought it on them selves. if they didn't want this to happen then they should have followed the UN resolution and disarmed hezbollah like it demands. Instead they have allowed and supported hezbollah. Israel declared WAR on lebanon. This is a WAR not a peace keeping mission or a police action. So Lebanon can save the poor me attitude and the whining to the UN. These terrorists have no Honor they are roaches. Iran and Syria's days are numbered. They cant keep sending terrorists into Iraq forever. We wont wait that long. And if you think we are spread too thin military wise dream on. we've been planing this stuff way before desert storm. We will not have suicide bombers with mini nukes strapped to their backs. no frickin way in hell that can be allowed to remotely become a possibility. I mean think about it folks, if they give Weapons, money, missles and c4 to hamas or hezbollah to kill others and blow them selves up with, don't you think a nuke is no issue, or even a dirty bomb no problem to use to them? Also to add, i hear these terrorist mullahs or wtf ever they are called, lol they tell these kids that they will get 70 virgins and live in paradise forever. And these kids go and murder innocent women and children. They kill over lust. That sounds pretty damn satanic to mean. But the 70 virgins are a curse in its self. Imagine 70 pissed off man hating chicks on the rag constantly. Lol hope these kids enjoy there paradise, suckers. Its pretty sad how stupid folks can be. All this killing over who's invisible man is gonna save them from them selves better. Hay Mr terrorists when i die I'm gonna have a big ass Uzi with a never ending clip and I'm gonna hunt your arses down and shoot the crap out of all of you till I'm bored, then ill enjoy all the virgins. |

I'm grouch when it comes to game mechanics. When I'm kiting a mob, i
don't want to be hit by the thing 20 or so feet with some melee attack cause
the games got behind the scene dice rolls and cant register the fact
that Ive move out of the way of the hit before it landed. This game is so bad at times ill move away from a mob almost completely of the screen and still it will land a melee attack on me!!!
Is there plans to change this stuff from happening? If not than how in the world will the title pull off siege combat and simple pvping? Mage characters have to kite melee characters since we don't have enough armor to take many hits. This issue is very serious and needs to be handled soon. My connection speed is comcastic gaming grade 8mb down and 768kb up lag isn't a issue for me in games. |

Any Alpha/Betas planed to be held?
General Discussion « Battlecruiser Online 7/11/06 12:52:25 PM

i read some interview and the dev guy said it would FPS with ranged weapons and 3rd person for melee weapons which is interesting indeed Id suggest folks try this type of combat out with a game that is currently using this combat system with melee combat, Gunz online. Free to play and a sweet little open beta, just have to watch out for the hackers, but that's usually easy enough to do. Gunz online is not complete or on par with what Fallen Earth has to offer in content, its just a pub setting similar to a normal FPS multiplayer game with chat, and rooms ( game sessions you can create or join in on). Your allowed to buy equipment etc. check it out for a feel of what Fallen Earth and the dozens of games in Development using FPS game mechanics will have to offer in the way of game play. Now that Internet connection speed and general computer technology has increased, the way of point and click, and turned based combat we have been force-fed from developers over and over can now be improved. Either gamers will adapt, most serious gamers can and have, or you can remain stuck in the past. |

Your All Nay Sayers-- EA/Mythic Could be a GOOD THING!!
The Pub at MMORPG.COM « General Discussion 6/23/06 2:52:59 PM
You could say the same thing for shooting up heroin, gay sex and playing russian roulette but I will pass on all of them. |

Ironic thing about it is the sky was falling and no one believed him, and no one could see it, but it happened. then the aliens came cause of the fish, and chicken little tried to tell everyone but the aliens went invisible before they could get there to see. It was the turkeys fault really cause he couldn't leave the damn penny alone. So then no one believed him till it was too late. But in the end they gave the kid back to the aliens and the aliens made everything back to normal. All this over a nut. If the aliens left the damn nuts alone in the first place then none of this would have happened. EA's reputation is enough to turn folks way. It doesn't matter how good the game is. Word of mouth folks. No matter how much spin is put on it the facts remain the same. i wont be buying it now that i know EA is behind the game. That's all that matters to me. Id rather buy something from a company with a proven track record that supports their games, past and previous. A company that shows a lot of love to their community. A company like that makes a community love them back. That is Blizzards secret. And yes i say secret cause most, not all but a majority of these companies out still don't get it. |

Bummer i was thinking of buying WAR too. I know how EA are with games and how they are with their communities in other games. They either nerf everything or just make stupid advances with their games that totally go against the grain to what their communities have requested, on boards or with petitions. Seems that every game they have acquired or made they have turned into sissy slap games with no balls. Good thing there are other games in the woodwork that i can choose to buy. What a total bummer this info is. Yes mythic sold out to E Gay games.
edit** When are you folks at MMORPG.com gonna join the modern age and allow foxfire. Look at the mess above after a single spell check...... |
