don't forget that some carbine dudes were present at blizzcon badge pickup to promote a tour of carbine studios with goody bags from a literal dollar store

i am tim! posted:I remember their dumb "Come tour our MUCH COOLER office!" campaign, but never that they gave out grab bags from the dollar store. How cheap! there was a picture on their facebook and they couldn't even be bothered to put like wildstar stickers on the bags, just the plain-rear end bags that are like ten for a buck

Blazing Zero posted:i played this game and max leveled a dude. then i quit because after max level it was an unfun attunement grind or cheater filled pvp. meanwhile, goons were chanting this games praises up until the child grooming thing. the child grooming thing was archeage, not wildstar

reminder that one of the dungeon silver medal times was 75 minutes, literally over an hour for a speed clear of a dungeon, and you had to hope that the servers which were notorious for making GBS threads themselves didn't do that once in that hour, and also that everyone played very well for that entire time oops you hosed up at the 65 minute mark and wiped. start over.

BigPaddy posted:At this point I never pre order, crowd fund or advance access any game. Because everything that is released is a steaming poo poo until at least a few patches and paying for the privilege to beta test the steaming poo poo is dumb. assassin's creed unity, sonic boom, and master chief collection came out within a month of each other and each one was broken as gently caress garbage. video games.

on page 4: they sharply disagreed with the direction Burning Crusade and beyond took and honestly thought their ideas about content design and progression were better. I wish I understood how they manage to avoid stepping out of their echo chamber for so long.

quote:armor break rotations in case you never played wildstar and don't get what this retarded premise was: in a genre where it's considered a miracle if you have a dps willing to interrupt spells, they decided interrupting spells should require multiple people all interrupting in order to break through "interrupt armor" so it would count

BigPaddy posted:That sounds tedious as gently caress. If the developers through that was a good idea then they are clearly delusional. it could be say, a gimmick that one raid boss utilizes, and it would be fine. every single dungeon boss utilizing it that tediously is not fine

for a textbook definition of floaty see elder scrolls online where attack animations weren't much more than kind of feebly waving a sword around, and characters hit by these animations had no reactionquote:I also don't understand how committing to one's choices in combat in the form of animation locks is somehow less hardcore. hardcore = high apm and carpal tunnel

The Moon Monster posted:It's sort of amazing how people will always say this about games with a lovely beta despite it never being true. Can anyone think of a game that actually did have a miracle day 1 patch? um well one of the devs was A GOON so surely they would never lie

BigPaddy posted:By the time the open Beta starts that is usually the state the game will be released in, maybe a few little tweaks but not much else. yeah see that's the thing, they had an "open beta" and it was dogshit but "oh it's just a beta" there's no such thing as an open beta. it's a demo called a beta to encourage that thought process.

Gaybee posted:To anyone still playing: Is there a high population idling in cities? I know sub numbers would be pretty low, but there should be some activity going on. i was reading a wildstar thread somewhere cause i was curious on the state of the game and a dude posted a picture of 7 dudes doing a mount conga line with "WOULD A DEAD GAME HAVE THIS??? STOP SAYING DEAD GAME" worth noting that he was in a main city and there was not a single player not in his tiny conga line

Mayor McCheese posted:I know this is a little off-topic, but what the gently caress happened with ArcheAge? I saw a lot of hype and then the thread just vanished. poo poo, Age of Conan / Mortal Online / Darkfall lasted longer than that. the leader of the goon guild was going to extreme lengths to defend and harbor a pedophile and it came out and there was a lot of ruckus and it basically resulted in the guild dissolving when ANOTHER person tried to sneak the pedophile back in as for the game itself, rift put in a bunch of lovely micros and killed themselves trying to cash out e: trion did the micros thing, but they make rift and ruined that too, so

Thunderbro posted:It really seems like there's a consistent theme among early MMO goons that there's just this cadre of creepy, miserable fucks that tries to snipe all the guilds and officer positions as fast as possible and power trip. Fortunately, it seems adults with working brains are adverse to having child grooming scum and co. in any position of authority over themselves. hang on you mean the kind of person who sets out to get a second job that you have to pay to do might be a deranged braindamaged idiot??

VoLaTiLe posted:Wasn't archage the mmo with an active goon pedophile ring or something like that? dude in charge of the goon guild was defending a pedophile because "well it happened a long time ago" and "it happened in iceland anyways" and then a whole bunch of the guild got very  that it was an Imp Zone Plot with the help of the moderation staff of the something awful forums to destroy their guildthen they tried to sneak him back in under a different name because man, i know he's a kiddy diddler, but holy crap can he generate a lot of wool. that's not sarcasm or funnyman, that was seriously why. you had people on their offsite forums detailing elaborate conspiracies about how the mods and the imp zone were working together to destroy their guild for...some...reason besides harboring a pedophile is gross

it's not the cost of wow it's the fact that there's nothing to loving do unless you're actively progression raiding and you can't actively progression raid unless you've completed the attunement ring

quote:Putting gems in your gear doesn't have a random chance to fail, taking a weeks worth of gil with it when it gets deleted. this is only true if you're trying to overmeld. melding materia into sockets that exist always succeeds. and it's not "a week's worth" of gil since if you're overmelding, you're rich.

Givin posted:Or it could mean something completely different. dot/hot effects, passive mana regeneration are tied to a background tick, and everything ticks at the same time, together aoe effects on the ground aren't affected by this though, it's just being out of the clearly marked zone before it goes away. even if you get out of the area after it goes away, you'll get hit, because the hit/not hit check is when the visual disappears.

Eimi posted:I did hear that SE eventually revealed the 'legit' way to beat it, like 5 years after it was relevant content. it was a youtube video that was ridiculously vague and mostly pictures of the combat log of people using 2 hour abilities the "legit" way was that if you cast the same 2-hour it was then it would interrupt and lock that 2-hour temporarily. so instead of hoping it doesn't use benediction you just hope it doesn't use it too much.
