  • LOL ! Why, if this game isn't worth mentioning, do I have a background now, at the very moment I am writing this, which advertise for the game ? Why, if this game isn't worth our time, do I get all those smaller ads on mmorpg.com on other occa…
  • ... ? Here I was under the impression these old ideas of gouping up was slowly dying.  Guilds have never been a "user" dictated feature of a game. It was and is always been a marketing idea being said to be "asked" for. 
  • Finite games ? Most non-video games always have an end. At which point the winner and the loser are declared.  Game companies don't like that idea. Because "real" end(ing)games make the player stop playing. And they don't like players to stop play…
  • Originally posted by Boneserino I am a firm believer that Games are not the problem with MMO's today, it is the players.   Lazy and disinterested  are the best words I can use to describe a large majority of them. Excuse me ... and you are ? P…
  • Originally posted by Dakirn It was totally Funcom's fault because they knew about it as soon as it started.. however everyone was on vacation and nobody could fix it in time (I guess nobody can work remotely?)   Since it was their fault, they di…
  • Originally posted by Crazy_Stick Originally posted by Ramonski7 Originally posted by Crazy_Stick OP, I think you are trying to over rationalize forum behavior from a slimly sociological perspective to develop an excuse for why things are the wa…
  • The problem is not to be negative, but to be negative just for the sake of it or without argument or reason. Too many forum writers are positiv or negative without an argument. If there is a reason to complain, you are allowed, you are bound, you n…
  • Cant you see why we keep on beating the dead donkey ? Because BW promised us TOR and we remembered the awful good game. BW promised us a MMO with new features. And we remembered WoW. And alot of people willing to forgive and forget and wanted to …
  • LOL ! I was there in 2008 on BW's forum. I have read all the statements that this could not go wrong because it was Bioware. I was there on the server stress tests in Beta and downloaded the heavy 20 Gig game ... and then when time came Bioware tol…
  • It has been noted, already for years now, that a simplified view of  "a gamer" is erronuous and only purposes the viewers point. Even "gamers" tend to make differences, as Pokket noted, within their own "group": hardcore/casual, mature/kid etc. . Re…
  • Speaking of whacking dead horses... It would be great if everybody would use the same name for the same idea, or at least know what they are talking about.  Immersion ? Sandbox game ? Endgame ? A MMO does not have an "endgame", that is for sin…
  • hmm ... We should wonder how  making games became big business ? Maybe there are some lessons to be draw from the past ? Now this business is spread across the World. Are there any  laws worlwide enforceable ? And will protective laws not shift a …
  • The hardware problem is usually not on the server side. It just has to take in account all the entities, which are merely codes and deliver it to all the different adresses ( clients/players ). Bassically this is ( just ? ) a ( huge )database. Our…
  • Originally posted by Cuathon [snip] www.lordofthedawn.com i was just going to ask if you had a blog of this lol. So, you are already far in designing, I'll tried to have a quick look at your PvP section but it gave a 404 page not found, …

  • I am not sure if I am quite with you on the faux NPC. You want to make every character playercontrolled, but if he is logged out, it will stil perform tasks ? Alot depends of what it does as task or what you let it do. It sounds easy, but it does …
  • You mean like FIFA football manager only with horses ? Dunno if you can use those particular graphics of that website, copyright and stuff you know ? There is one thing you can do yourself. Write a scenario down on paper. Write down the general …
  • Originally posted by MMOExposed What Lang does the network coders learn? Also any free engines out there that novice programmers can get dirty with? I am no programmer , I dabbled in my time with C, but that is as far as it goes. Nowadays, the…
  • What we call "a game" consist of different things. Games susch as WoW, Rift, SWTOR, ... all are client/server systems. Meaning the server controls the input of the client and sends the necessary data to a from the client. The server has differen…
  • hm ... 11 500 000 is that the number of subscriptions or the active players ? What is the possible error ratio of your little exercise ? 10%, 30%, ... ? And what would you consider an usable ratio ? And even on the condtion this 307 has some "we…
