  • Aye...a bigger problem would be cape physics. :p Females look like Marilyn Monroe wannabes when they walk down some stairs in their Moonstone Mask Regalia or a cape. :rolleyes:
  • I know, it wasn't intended to be helpful in this case...the only thing that can help here is Cryptic/PWE. I was in the Foundry, exited to check something my Foundry list and ended up at the login screen as well.
  • Plenty of threads for said cause have been opened...I think it's a pretty vocal and known thing, when they get around to doing it they will...it's not exactly higher priority than some other issues or changes, but it's still highly wanted.
  • Some of them don't complete anyway sadly, this includes Ebon Downs and Neverdeath Graveyard...their meta-achievements have issues, and even completing everything properly doesn't grant the achievements linked to them. And no, there is no other way around it...like many of us, you're stuck with incomplete quests or…
  • You can go to the character select screen, though it's not a visible button as it should be. Typing /gotocharacterselect and waiting the entire 15 second countdown will get you back to that specific screen, clicking exit now will log you out fully though. Not exactly what most of us are looking for, but it's all we have at…
  • Yes, all skirmishes except Blacklake Terror currently have achievements attached to them...so sadly if you miss them right now, you cannot complete any logged dailies or unfinished achievements. Manual entries for them (like Dungeons) are rather high in demand though, so we may see them down the road, but right now you…
  • I somehow doubt that's the case. I personally have no open accounts for any other Cryptic or Perfect World games, never played them, never will, and have nothing redeemed or linked to them on my account...and yet I have the same issue where mail is acting like it's there, but nothing appears. That said, I did have two…
  • Not when there's a level restriction on them, when they're tied to achievements (sometimes multiple) and also often contain lore entries. A manual entry with a bypass is needed...unless the level limits are lifted, so they'd very much be useful right now. The current system is a shot-in-the-foot approach and really doesn't…
  • Agreed. I personally knew about this issue, but still missed the Skirmish in Ebon Downs (Defend the Temple) because of Helm's Hold and it's rather stupid-high XP gain for an area that's only meant to last 5 levels in progression and ends up being 7-8 levels instead. The skirmish has like, a bracket of 3-4 levels, so it…
  • I'd be inclined to say their stats will be +2 DEX with a choice of +2 CHA or +2 INT...makes more sense to me than +2 WIS as a choice. By default they have +2 DEX and +2 CHA in the rulebooks if I recall, prior to 4th they also had +2 INT as part of their positive bonuses...so it's more reasonable to assume INT will be…
  • I got Unaligned Elf Warlock on the first, and Elf on the second...go figure. Obviously, I'll be rolling a Drow Renegade Wizard first though. :p
  • Certainly interested, but will hold off applying until I have the more important stuff regarding my character dealt with. Although the name of the guild is...generic, it fits, and honestly it suits my region as I'm an Aussie myself. That said though, at least one other player may be attached along with me (aka, I go where…
  • Bag/bank space is a good reason. Any mount you're not using takes up normal bag/bank space (depending on where you store it)...you can only equip one mount to your quick slot bar at any time, which since beta 3 removes it from the bag's space and into the quick slot bar's own "inventory". Considering that there'll probably…
  • I'm betting on a Warlock class too, based on the listed "Classes" in the auction house, of all 11 there is only one which stands out from the rest of which clearly are the known playable classes or their specializations, Hellbringer is the only one which isn't...but indicates as something likely to be Warlock-inclined.
  • Probably because some words won't translate properly, or at all. I know some words from a number of languages simply don't "compute" in translation because they don't really exist in their dictionary. It's a pity this is the case, because I'd like to see this kind of thing one day too, but I don't see it happening with…
  • A nice trailer. Not normally fond of fan-made ones, because the music often just feels out of place or unfitting entirely, but I got chills in my spine when watching and listening, and if I get chills while listening to that kind of music it means it's a good thing...but again, a shame on the format, the 480p partially…
  • There's a thread going on in the beta section regarding this and our desire to have it changed to something more reasonable, such as point buy (and this is practically a universal opinion at the moment, based on the feedback in that thread). To be clear, it regards what the ability score system is in detail, which is (from…
  • I'm an Aussie and frankly I don't think I need to do anything. It's been done to death in the past and most we ever get is a server labelled Oceanic, but it still located in the country of the MMO's origin. And to be completely honest, half the reason why we never get a server isn't always because of the owners of the game…
  • In the wise words of another developer...Soon TM. ;)
  • They are also resetting when you zone from one place to another sometimes. I've had a few times where I've gone to another area on the world map and both the cooldown for my hourly worship has reset but also the buff from it is gone and any accumulated Celestial Coins have vanished. This doesn't happen all the time but it…
  • It's been stated already in another thread (too deep for me to bother finding at the moment) that it'll just be a background...it'd be rather pointless making two versions of an identical race, no matter how long they've been "freed" from the Spider Queen's grip, the Drow are Drow. The background may alter their racial…
  • Probably not the most difficult of Vanilla's dungeons, but they did eat up and spit out many-a-group...especially Gnomeregan, the joint was a deathtrap for awhile. Though I can think of a dungeon worse prior to nerfing...Scholomance. I have some bad memories of that place. ;)
  • Yeah that might need to be defined more clearly...preferably without an NDA slap in the face. :)
  • Well not light years, literally...but I don't think anything quite compares to it yet. And I've seen that video before...the point is, no matter how good the videos they make are going to be, the technology won't keep up. The reason why games don't use true CGI graphics (as seen in movies like the Neverwinter one), is…
  • Though you'll still be able to solo much of the content I'm guessing, based on a few videos I've seen...and the groups are still small enough to be "Co-Op" like. Personally I'll be glad to see the back of 10-40 man content...it's overrated, and from what I've heard of places like Helm's Hold, the fights can be just as epic…
  • Always love a good CGI movie for games...it's just a pity we're light years away from having that kind of graphics as the actual graphics in-game. I mean...there's been a handful which push the boundries (Crysis, Witcher 2 and apparently Crysis 3 will take it to a whole new level), but none really look too close to CGI…
  • Well the person I used my friend key on has gotten his email about the times for this beta weekend...so it is my guess that he is in, and therefore the friend key works on that weekend if used prior to it's opening time, though an official confirmation wouldn't hurt.
  • Aye...having VIP priority is nothing to scoff at in an mmo, especially if your server/shard has high traffic or population. Depending on those factors, it can be considered an almost invaluable benefit to have. To me, frankly, I bought the packs for the goodies...VIP logging in is simply a bonus so I don't have to wait…
  • It was the February edition of 2013 (which was released in January), and only the US version I think.
  • To answer the OP's question in my own opinion...yes it is an MMORPG. Massively isn't defined by the systems or mechanics of the game, it's defined by the fact that it is has a large open PvE world where thousands of players can experience it together. It doesn't have to have parties larger than 4-6...it doesn't have to…
