If it was specific to a certain forum, then why would we still have beta sign up dates listed? Wouldn't they have gone away with the beta forums? And since I never posted or signed into the beta forums until last spring, shouldn't my join date reflect that instead of when I signed up for beta?
-
True that the player base drops in most MMO's after launch, but EvE would be the only MMO that still consistently grows in subscription numbers. And that's a 10 year old game.
-
Have they announced the name of the new shard yet?
-
That's awesome.
-
Too soon man....too soon! (jk) (But I did LOL)
-
Whoa. I didn't realize there was a Pink Floyd concert in-game.
-
Oh boy...LOTRO....talk about your patches going wrong..... The first year LOTRO was live, they released a big patch right before the American Thanksgiving holiday. Things went horribly wrong, and the servers were barely up for several days afterwards. It was so bad, that the Turbine employes got called back from their…

Of course, bugs can also occur after the QA testing. Sometimes, just going live can cause bugs that aren't present in the QA testing. Is this alot of peoples first MMO? This isn't a snarky question, but genuine. There's been many games that have been much worse then here. SWTOR for example. Their first few patches and…

So using this logic, Eve is the only "good" game since it has constantly retained & grew their play-base over the years, while every other MMO in existence isn't "good" because they constantly lose players over time? "Good" and "bad" are subjective. DDO was considered the worse game in history by some in 2006, yet 7 years…

You're right. I just tried to dye my sword (one that has been previously dyed), and it gave me the same message. They must have changed it since the last event. What was the purpose? Another one of those "fix something that wasn't broken" changes, imho.
-
With it equipped (not sure if it can be done unequipped), open your character screen, choose the weapon (main hand or off-hand), select "change appearance". Then just put the dye you want in the box, or choose the dye from the drop down menu. Not all weapons may be dye-able, I'm not sure.

This. Cryptic screwed up to begin with. Cryptic screwed up with their response. All anger should be directed at Cryptic, not other players.
-
It's not even close to the same thing.
-
I really don't get it. Cryptic screwed up. Cryptic admitted they screwed up. Yet, people continue to insist on blaming their fellow players.
-
I mean everyone knew the lockboxes were getting changed and not dropping anymore. Who's to say (at the time) that Cryptic had just decided to increase the chance of getting a horse as part of the change? Fact of the matter is: someone was in there messing with the drop rate ratios, for whatever reason.
-
People could have suspected it was a bug, or people could have thought it was WAI, since Cryptic choose to ignore the original report.
-
Did Cryptic, at anytime before the patch (like when it was reported) or during the time when the odds were increased, say that it was NOT working as intended?
-
Since when was purchasing a key and opening a lockbox considered a exploit?
-
Are you sure you're not confusing "class" with "race"? I was in beta too, and all I remember them saying is that the new race (Drow) will be available "at least 60 days after launch". Don't remember them saying anything about classes. None the less, I certainly thought they would have a new class out around the first…
-
Yea, the first time I heard about the new class was in this interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmMpZrqZEX8 (about 6 minutes in). And it certainly took some wind out of my sails to hear that it was "maybe 40% done" at launch. I find it hard to believe they released a D&D game, without many of the core classes, and a…
-
But that's the thing, where did they post anything different then "by the end of the year"? AFAIK, they've been saying this since a few weeks after launch.
-
Can you please post where you got this information from? Because as of just the other day, it was "by the end of the year". http://nw.perfectworld.com/news/?p=964851 Now I agree, we need more classes. And yes, I think by the end of the year is far too long. But this is old news by now.
-
Cryptic says that it's 2 million "unique" players. No mention of accounts or characters: http://nw.perfectworld.com/news/?p=949011 But they also don't mention "when". My guess is that's how many have played the game since launch, maybe even open beta.
-
I keep seeing people saying this, but have yet to see anyone provide any sort of proof. Do you have some? (FWIW, I don't think there's 2 million players playing concurrently. I do think there's been 2 million players since the game launched, however.)
-
I never understand this mentality. You agree with me, yet still try to insult me? I never said people weren't leaving. I am saying that number isn't 70%, as mentioned in the OP.
-
Very cool! Good luck! I would imagine that over time you'll learn the tools of the trade, and the art of talking to the viewers!
-
Let me explain in more detail: SWTOR lost 70% of their population in the first few months, according to their quarterly inverters reports. They launched with 1.7 million players, and we were spread over 20 some odd servers. When the people left, it was felt. This game boasts 2 million players on 3 servers. If 70% of those…
-
SWTOR lost 70% of their player-base in the first few months. This game has not seen that kind of loss.
-
Kinda, but not really. I mean, it's great that you're hopeful and all. But then that just raises the question of if you're so hopeful, then why poo-poo on other players that are currently enjoying the content? I get the being upset with Cryptic due to the current events. What I don't get is the hostility towards other…
