Not yet, and no single goon patriot has stepped up to lead the official effort.

It's a brave fool who wants to wrangle cats.

Thank god.

I say make many guilds with varied goals and rules and have them under a blanket goon alliance. Every individual guild is responsible for moderating themselves. If something comes up and it isnt fixed then you kick the whole guild from the alliance. The members can choose to apply to a different goon guild and be accepted or not.

Make the account with the alliance head owned by someone who doesnt even play the game and he shares the login info with nobody. All he does is login and kick/invite guilds once a week or so.

This is a good idea which is why it will probably never work.

In all seriousness, the sheer number of races in this game is kind of weird and I'm wondering how this is going to work logistically with armor and textures and all that.

Sort of like this game, but that is totally okay.

2 questions:

Are the Tuatha as awsome in this game as they were in irish mythology? Cus I really liked those dudes.

Can we play as the Hiberian National Liberation Army?

I would love it if the Tuatha were as metal as they are in mythology, but they'll probably make them fruity for a broader appeal and/or to have a pretty option. If they're making Arthurians dark I don't see the Norse folk being the pretty option.

As for your second question: if they don't gently caress it up, hell yeah let's bomb some carriages.

(They're gonna gently caress it up)

So are they going to mirror these classes so each faction's flavor of whatever basically works the same, or what?

Every class works differently, within a set of "rules". While aesthetically interesting, I feel like it's going to be very, very hard to balance properly.

Well, gently caress.

Nothing is a worthy investment, you fool. MMOs are not investments, they're money sinks.

"Investment: an act of devoting time, effort, or energy to a particular undertaking with the expectation of a worthwhile result."

Didn't mean to use a word that some of you only memorized in the finance/economic sense. But I can rephrase, Warrior 2.0 sounds like a decent way to throw my money away in the name of nostalgia.

Although, while I was never dedicated to the cause, I do recall making a pretty penny when I sold a few in-game items, and eventually sold my account. Before e-Bay started enforcing Intellectual e-property rights, MMO's most certainly were a worthy investment.

Ozkar posted:

Throwing away money isn't justified by default in a pay-to-post forum? Apologies. I just love me some DAOC, didn't mean to break my lurking streak so terribly. By all means, continue to dry hump my use of the word investment.

Also why the gently caress would you call a class morrigan

They're running out of widely known mythological references already. I mean they could start tapping into the stuff that mostly has consonants (if Welsh) or vowels (if Celtic) for names, but that'd be hard for nerds to scream over voice chat.

Currently, and as always this is subject to change, especially since right now they're totally non-functional, you have to take 5 worth of both banes and boons at minimum when making a character. They come in 1, 3 and 5 point flavors from the pre-alpha stuff that's left in there, and I imagine that at least will stay similar. You won't have to chose specific ones though.

That's kinda neat at least. I just hope it doesn't there doesn't end up being a standard min/max strategy where everybody chooses the same crap for minimal drawbacks and maximum gains like in a drat World of Darkness game.

About what you'd expect; so far up its own rear end it's legally a midget.

I'll be waiting for that distant popping sound for when it finally goes so far it winks out of existence.

You have to keep up your detected sense of hipster irony. You see, if you only enjoy things ironically you can never be wrong. Because if it was good you enjoyed it, if it was bad your enjoyment was ironic.

If you ever unironically enjoy something or look forward to something you are literally Hitler.

I tried to make a flow chart for this but it just went up your rear end. Weird.

I run infrastructure on games because its a fun aspect for me. The services we have to communicate with the goons were always rock solid. Either way there is no need to drag drama from another game into this one, so kindly lets keep with the current OP Topic

It's been so long I forgot what faction goons are supposed to one day be playing.

Though really I think we should wait, see which way the pubbie wind blows, and then pick the one that'll enrage them best.
