  • Because hackers are bad for the entire industry, and Blizzard being pretty much the leader, they have the most to lose from it. The more work you force those sites to have to do, the better it is for absolutely everyone involved.
  • Sure, I'll form a premade, then faceroll the other team because half of em either d/c or hide at the campfire. That's totally a solution to the problem I have where lots of people either d/c or hide at the campfire. At least I'm the one doing the steamrolling, and I can't possibly be joining pvp because I want a good fight…
  • 208.95.184.0, btw, is apparently the target for the tracert. At least, that's the best I could find from the website that now gets redirected, based on google shenanigans. Because honestly, who needs an faq for an mmo? :rolleyes: I've been having this too, I can run ESO on high settings without a drop of lag. Neverwinter?…
  • The graveyard, no doubt. My favorite and most played setting in all of PNP D&D is Ravenloft. If it weren't for the fact that it'd pretty much be impossible to do without severely tweaking canon (how would you randomly jump in and out of ravenloft to go to town, for example), I'd *kill* to see the Mists pop up in…
  • 1. The "PvP Patch". I feel like one more stat to have to gear for, and another full set of gear you'll have to keep on hand and enchant if you play both styles, was a bit of a step backward. I also think the leaver penalty is good in theory, but in practice can sometimes punish people who are having issues with lag or…
  • That's pretty darn impressive.
  • Nah, they queued for it. All a penalty is doing is forcing them to finish what they started, and not ruin the experience for everyone else. They voluntarily joined the pvp, and pvp isn't like pve where you've got a very reasonable chance of steamrolling everything you fight. The whole *point* is that you're playing real…
  • Hi. I've been around since closed beta, but took a break for a while because of a move and a job change. I guess, while I was gone, my guild disbanded. So, I'm looking for a new family. I've got a level 52ish wizard, but I'm still again getting the hang of how the game works, and the new changes. In a nutshell, I might be…
  • 1: that's because the happy players are actually in game playing. Forums for mmos exist for people to whine incessantly about minor things. 2: The nerfs? lol! I see about 4 power buffs for every power reduction, and if one power being reduced a bit is a game ender for you? You might have a bad build. The only thing that…
  • There is a purpose. The current cryptic launchers for the individual products don't really have an easy method to do real-time updates on current issues, like server outages or major bugs. I'm sure I don't have to point at the launch bugs this game had, with server outages and such, to point out why this is bad. But, ARC…
  • Boy, I remember a time when getting a giveaway from a website or game mag didn't involve having to use 4 social media platforms and spamming all of your friends with nonsense. And I miss it.
  • Haters gonna hate. I followed it. :D
  • I find it hilarious that one of cryptic's titles that has absolutely no use for build swapping, champions online, gets friggin 7 of em. This game, with like 5 powers useable out of 20 at a time? None. I'd kill for a build swap function. If, for no other reason, than the ability to push a button to switch my gear and powers…
  • Mature. Also, that's gonna make it better. Consider that this might be why you got banned. Yeah, just spread that negativity around, that'll fix everything. As to the OP: We'd been dealing with it in champions online for years. We have costume contests, where we give out resources for creative costuming. Many of the well…
  • You're making a pretty vain and fallacious assumption here. Vain in that you understand how their team works, and fallacious that the people who design items and do the modeling for em have sweet **** all to do with server side coding or database functions. I've done this job before. You're so wrong it's actually funny.
  • Damaged? This has happened in the opening days of every cryptic mmo since they sold CoX.
  • OH, cool. So in betas when they find game halting bugs, they wipe all the characters after they fix it, so the issues created don't go live. So can we get that wipe now?
  • Actually, that one got banned for copyright, and they had to remake it and remove all references. So, yeah, it should have. I come from halfway in between the op and the guy that was quoted in this post. I intend to get into the foundry when work chills out, and I have done enough research to know what I'm looking for in…
  • Nope. I'm honestly trying to decide if this is a deal breaker for me. They won't catch all of the people who profited off of this, and a lot of it was sold to AD sellers. By keeping the servers up, they reward people who profit from serious rampant bug exploits, because they will never find all of it. Simply put, that…
  • You know what's a common thing to have happen in beta when major bugs are found? Character wipes. Game, set, match.
  • They lose all of the astral diamonds they farmed, or any goods they received from auction house or zen market as a result of said farming? You know, the entire thing we're talking about? They lose that.
  • My job involves boiling hot grease, heavy lifting, and the potential for randomly getting shot. You're playing a freaking video game. Yeah, my work is harder than yours. I can't even... This is logic put forth by people who've never worked an honest day in their lives. If you had, you'd know how much harder a real job is…
  • http://www.d20srd.org/srd/classes/ranger.htm#animalCompanion 3.0 and 3.5 dnd. In AD&D, they had followers, which could be exotic animals. Pets have *always* been a feature of the ranger class. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranger_%28Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29#Advanced_Dungeons_.26_Dragons_1st_edition_.281977.E2.80.931988.29
  • Yeah, it's Manshoon. Presuming we're going by 4th ed lore, like we are.
  • I suggest that anyone who thinks this is going to make anything cost *more* astral diamonds google the word "deflation". Economics doesn't work this way. When you take cash out of the economy, stuff gets less expensive. Not more. Why? You still have the exact same amount of product, and demand for that product, as you did…
  • So, your argument is that rogues and wizards hit too hard, so nerf em, and clerics shield and heal too well, so nerf those? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... I think I see your problem. I also can't get behind DR on cc in pvp. Why? I've played another cryptic title that went that route. Champions Online. Now, the only controls we…
  • "GO FOR THE EYES, BOO!" "Hold still, you've got something in your teeth." "Beauty? Ha! You know what else is in the eye of the beholder? MY SWORD." "I see what you did there. And there. And also over there." "And that's the story of how I met your mother." "Excuse me, I'd like to have a word with you about our lord and…
  • Want to support the game. Can't hack spending stupid amounts of money on most of the services or a vanity mount with no point/some bugged pets that won't attack properly. Have no level capped toons to buy any of the rest of it and actually make any use of it. Wat do? By this logic "if you think it's over priced, don't buy…
  • I work 60 hours a week, so please don't take this to be a rant by some basement dweller with no job. I've dropped quadruple digits on champions online, so don't think I'm cheap, either. My response to you has nothing to do with a lack of either of these 2 qualities. My *sub* to other games costs less than a mount here…
