Jagex browser games are all relatively poor graphics, so i'm a bit disappointed at them getting the nod to work the IP. I'll probably still give it a try, but i would have preferred a full client based game for TF instead.
I'd have to say i'm just about in 100% total agreement with Michael Bitton on this. I too was not expecting any space combat at launch, and i'm in that camp of those who feel almost insulted that it's going to be a rail shooter - indeed, as MB said,…
Quite a bummer, i was actually just thinking of checking it out.
I do agree with the end of "the list" that it probably did rush to market. So many games in the last two to three years fall into that category. From his descriptions this one fell p…
The reason people are up in arms about this, is because if they include such a half-assed space combat at launch, the likelihood of getting a better version down the road is virtually nil. As opposed to SWG where it launched with none to begin with,…
I did mention Vanguard just a handful of posts ago, but even it had it's shortcomings. It was nice that you could focus on crafting, combat or diplomacy, however in order to craft, you actually had to do combat or know someone who did. Could just le…
Couple comments i would make.
I find that crafting where i simply hit a button and the crafting is done, boring, frankly. I prefer to interact at least a little bit, when im crafting. Vanguard's crafting was a ton of fun, as one example.
I also …
I pretty much completely agree. Although i personally purchased the Champions online lifetime sub to save some cash down the road. Unfortunately they nerfed the hell out of the game on the very morning of retail release. I waited through a few patc…
To the OP's points about game imbalance, DoK vs WP is accurate, however the squig herder is not a direct counter to the shadow warrior. You compare them to engineers.
Remember that arena tournament over the early summer? Cost you 20 bucks i think, per person. How many of the thousands of people do you think did that entirely for the murkamus pet? I know 4 people who did the tourney, 3 of us were competitive, but …
Just to clarify something people are bringing up about cash shop + sub. First - they said cash shop items would almost entirely be cosmetic and anything that was stat based or development would also be available in game, so who cares. If people want…
Can someone please save this somewhere so we can throw it in his face =P
I applaud the attempt but i just dont buy it. STO and SW:TOR in the top 5, yeah definitely. a Superhero game up there yeah. Aion - not so sure. APB - definitely not sold on t…
My wow account is currently active, but won't be billed again atm. I played for almost 4 years without ever even taking much of a break. Lately nothing has been able to keep my interest long anyway.
I'm actually leaving wow for the time being most…
Just a tiny little nitpick, but i'm wondering just how correct the info about him working on Diablo is. I was in tech support there for a short time right after the D2 release, and from what i was told ALL design/prog work for the original diablo wa…
I'll be a little bit surprised, not to mention extremely pissed off if we get charged anything for battlenet. When you consider that you had to merge your wow account with battlenet for certain features. Will people who did that unwittingly have set…
IP bans are really bad mojo. Most isp's these days have dynamic ip assignments. Meaning if my cable modem goes out, i can get a different ip next time i turn it on. So if they banned me today, and i reset my modem, i get back on, and some other poor…
Yeah they were supposed to be down for maint last night from midnight to 2am, but they were up, i was on the forums and bouncing around for a while til well past 3am. My guess is they posted the wrong time, or there was some delay in updating whatev…
Based on the state of what they've shown so far, If diablo 3 comes out late 2010 i'll be beyond shocked. Blizz is really good about releasing stuff to generate hype. They've barely even shown us anything for D3 yet. People who work there on other pr…
I have not played aion, but i have done a few days (last weekend) on CO beta. I never played CoX because i couldnt fathom how you could feel like a superhero when EVERYONE was a superhero. Now that i've played CO, i kinda wish i had given CoX a chan…
You can say whatever you think about Blizzard's "power" to not release a product, but anyone who played beta for original wow knows full well Vivendi pushed World of Warcraft out due to retail obligations. I'm not saying Activision will do the same…
