as much as i wanted to disagree with you.

i cant

youre right

we would ruin it

hell in swtor early access the other day, i ran across a jedi named azeroth

i rest your case

The Chronicles of Riddick

so many great races were fleshed out in that movie.  it would make a perfect multi factioned mmo (cause 2 faction mmo's are lame).

after a lot of thought, ive decided my collector's ed wil be going up on ebay...

ive been reading WAY too many horror stories about the absolutely abismal customer service that origin gives.  

its just another theme park anyway, so, i figure ill just keep playing the one i'm playing now.  i dont need another theme park reskinned.

with what ill be able to sell it for, ill be able to pick up the starcraft II expansion, and the wow expansion, with some change left over.

and to those that havent been paying any attention (i.e. most of the internet)

samwise didier has been on the warpath to get them in the game ever since he first started drawing them.

theres no blizzard conspiracy here.

the art director just thinks theyre badass.

its as simple as that.

take off the tin foil hats.

explain to me how pandarens are any different than any other non human race in wow?

the only thing thats required to build a raid guild is chat skills and forum post skills.

theres no prestige to that anyway. 

good for you, you can manipulate people with little social skills on the internet.

talk an fhm cover model into the sack via the internet and ill be impressed.

in the meantime, wasting millions of dollars for content for a tiny percentage of the games population makes zero business sense anyway.

i think if anyone thinks blizzard has lost its fire or ran out of ideas, they simply arent paying attention.

if blizzard has done anything, its that theyve proved when it counts, they know how to show up and get serious when they need to.  they have more capital to work with, and bigger dev teams than any other game company in history. 

i think theyre just keeping quiet, holding back and waiting. 

remember blizzcon is coming.  we have no idea what theyre going to show in the next expansion, and we really have no idea what else they have in development.

to count them out, is silly.  they know how to compete harder than any other company in the industry.

my favorite part was where the author got away with "i didnt check this content out myself, but i read on the forums....."

really?!?!?!?? are you cereal?  im so jelly mr. professional mmorpg writer.  for reals

while i will play both, because im a gamer and thats how i roll.....

I'd pick Guild Wars 2 over SWTOR because Eric Flannum is one of the best gameplay designers alive.

eve combat is nothing like x3.

if you liked x3, check out black prophecy

no i mean it was a video stream where you could watch what was inside the game from the website.

not the streaming client.

i know it was there at launch.  just wondering if they took it down or why.

i swear i used to check this out from time to time.

did they remove it?

does a bear poop in the woods?

this has been verified by several people.

all you need to do to transfer is this...

if you dont have a guild there already, contact one via the forums, talk to the about joining.

then submit a ticket, tell the gm your guild is on (for sake of discussion) wolfsbane, tell them the guild, and they will transfer your toon there.  locked from transfers or not.

seems busier than ever on wolfsbane.  everyone in my guild is having a great time and were not even a progression guild.

No new battlegrounds. Nothing to make it meaningful.

Some classes got nerf. Some got buff.

But nothing new about the PvP, still pretty flat.

LFG tool is kinda broken, but no one admits it yet. Cross server feature isn't added yet, but it probably will be in before the year is out because people still complain about long wait times (2hrs).

yes, as i said.  people that only queue for one role have problems.

talk to someone that can queue as healer/damage/tank and you'll get a very different answer.

the mistake a lot of people make with the lfg tool is just insisting on one role.

get multiple roles, then queue for everything, you can find a group using that tool in no time.

people that insist on damage tend to say its a terrible tool.  but thats because so many people have a tough time getting their head around one of the key principles of the game.  that you can and should change your character around at will for the most part.

copy pasta of the live update i posted over on hardocp's forums...

planetside keynote notes:

- forge light engine

- no instancing, open world combat

- new territory control and conquest mode. (every square inch of the map is contestable).

- owning a territory gains you, your squad, and your side resources. these can be used to upgrade weapons, armor, and vehicles in the game.

- they are hoping to use resources for a sandbox style of gameplay. he didnt really elaborate on that though

- planetside 2 introduces classes into planetside. each class will have its own upgrade path.

- introduces a certification tree for each class. this will be an offline, time based skill system just like in eve online (they even mentioned it was like eve's skill system).

if they filed for arbitration they arent suing.  arbitration isnt the same thing as suing.

arbitration basically means (for those that dont know this), there is a disagreement that one of the two parties doesnt feel can be resolved on its own and said party wants a third party to moderation a discussion to resolve that issue.
