  • Great post. For me I have to say that most of the bad really is not a big deal to me except the Locked boxes getting stuck in my inventory. Hopefully that is just a glitch otherwise I will have to stop playing. Just too irritating for me. All the other "issues" are really just the price of doing a free to play game. I am…
  • How do we get our mounts and stuff that we paid for to try out for the beta weekend. It seems I remember a thread somewhere about this, but I can't find it.
  • While I have Zero interest in playing an evil charactor or worshipping an evil god it is truly a huge part of D&D. It is far easier to create a story line for a game that is simple and same for all if you have no evil players and limited customization. I suspect that is why Cryptic has gone this direction at this time. You…
  • Another Question so if I have to wait until Friday to download the client, but don't want to use one of my days until Sunday because i work Friday and Saturday will there be away to download the client Friday afternoon without using up one of my 3 Beta days?
  • I see others are having this issue. We are advised to download the client early yet the download button is greyed out. Are we going to have to wait until noon PST tomorrow to download the client?
  • I really hope all the news is wrong and Paladin in at launch, but if not I will play Cleric.
  • Yes i was thinking this exact thought. I would hate to wake up Feb. 8th and have to spend all day downloading and just trying to get in. If we could download on the 6th and confirm the download took that would be awesome. Then when we wake up and start on the 8th we would be able to start testing ASAP.
  • I have recruited so many Friends and Guildies to so many MMOs that have flopped that I have no creditablity in the area any more with them. I am telling folks I am going to play this when it launches, but not recruiting them because it might not be for them. This is actually starting to work because they are going "what do…
  • I have played Good, Evil, and everything between with some degree of satisfaction. After a few decades I have grown tired of Evil and Chaos. I find trying to come up with an interesting reason to be an SOB tiresome and cliche. Striving to be truly Lawful Good in my actions is the only Alignment that is interesting and…
  • For me Neverwinter Nights 1 was the greatest game ever. I know this is not a continuation of that, but honestly a seed of hope for something similar at least a little is the number 1 draw for me. Then the big question is why? D&D is a big part of it because I have played PnP for 36 years. Not a big fan of 4th addition, but…
  • For me the most memorable are the PnP games where I was the DM. Probably the worst was one I created for my group after that had spent the previous night talking about how lame 1st level adventures with goblins where. We started playing and the local village ask them to help end the goblin menuse in the mountain. They all…
  • I personally would prefer to download the game. I know the plan is for free to play, but I still really hope there is a premium service to get around the cash shop. All that being said I do know some people that say they will only play if there is a buy the box option. I have no idea why they are bull headed about this,…
  • I really hope there are no flying mounts and no mounts in backpacks. On the other hand selling mounts and mounts getting killed by wolves could get old fast. Why not just leave your mounts where you get off them, but nobody else can see them or touch them until you get back on them. Yes I know not realistic but this is a…
  • I completely agree as well. You know this is a competitive industry. I am huge Neverwinter fan, but honestly Elder Scrolls Online could teach the Neverwinter marketing team more than a couple things. They are starting to draw away my attention.

  • I am not big into crafting personally, but I definately hope there is a big crafting part of Neverwinter. I would like to see a system that has minor benefits for those that only wanted to dabble in crafting. For those that want to invest a lot of time in crafting they should with a great deal of work create some of the…

  • Personally I think chat channels that are global in nature should just be eliminated. Allow line of site chat, party chat, and Guild chat. No world or Regional chat. This would seriously damper Gold spamming.
  • I have read a lot of your post Truthseeker and I suspect you know just as much if not more than I do. A few times I have pulled out the books to verify something you said, and 99% of the time you are right on the hard core facts. :) Part of this is probably a matter of prospective. Being "old" I have always been more…
  • Having played D&D for the last 35+ years I strongly feel it adds depth to the game and would greatly enrich the on online experiances. In Neverwinter 1 player content servers I found some of the best faction based PvP and Role-Play was on servers that had deity based factions. For none divine class I think minor ability…
  • Great thread I hope you keep this going. I am an old D&D fan still stuck in the World of Greyhawk. This is a great thread for me to read as I prepare thoughts on making my Cleric/Priest. Please keep this going.
  • I am sad to hear the launch is delayed. Getting real tired of game hopping because honestly nothing that came out this year seems any good to me. Looks like just killing time for another 6 months. On the other hand if it is really good I will not mind the wait after it launches.
  • I definately vote paladin. It has always been my favorite for PnP and in RGPs. How can you have a D&D game without paladins?
  • Personally I'm Neutral Good or "Good" in 4e. I love playing all alignments except Neutral Evil and Chaotic Evil. Fairly certain I will play "Good" unless they make a Pally class then I will be lawful Good.
  • The best Guild system experiance I ever had that was just totally amazing was in Neverwinter Nights I. It was on a Player developed server - Realm of the Lost Legion. The server had a master DM, but it also had in game content DMs. These DMs were actually players that led Factions (They didn't call them guilds). Each…
  • I agree with a lot of the ideas presented. There should be some Vanity, Convience, and RP benefits for guilds, but no combat advantages. I would love to see guilds that could be centered around associations with NPC guilds related to Professions, alignments, or Gods. One thing that I have never seen, but always thought…
  • I am so excited about this game, but it seems like it have "been coming" forever. Trying very hard to keep the faith. I don't blame Cryptic or Perfect World I know they are doing all they can. I am just worried that dragging the launch out so long will hurt the launch. It is good to build suspence, but this is getting the…
  • .....Foundly dreams of a Greyhawk RPG..... Wakes up.... Yes the Foundery will be the most important part of this game.
  • I agree bringing back the ability to do Strength checks would be awesome. it would add huge dimensions to the game. Thieves can still be very important just add in more heavy duty doors and traps etc. that Strength can not overcome. I definately hope on the player developed content side this gets addressed even if it is…
  • I like a lot of what Torskaldr has to say here. I have played D&D for last 35 years and loved debating the whole alignment thing for years as the game has evolved. It is a nice philosophical debate. In the end for game play it is too simplistic approach for good game play. Human history is filled with folks doing things…

  • I like to do a combination of solo and grouping depending on my mood. I prefer to be in Role-Play mode at all times except maybe after I have been with a guild for a while. I usually establish guild friends later in game that I like to do raiding or PVP raids with. This is really hard to describe without saying what I…
  • I really hope that there are different deities and paths associated with them. It would add incredible depth to the game. It would not be needed for good role play, but sure would enhance it.
