Well, a few things
Playing DDO (still) a couple hours a night. Still have fun playing. Have a great group of people that I play with. Currently we're on the TR train heading towards completionist.
Battlefield 4 multiplayer. Late comer to the g…
After months on the alpha and betas, I decided to pass on ESO. Not because it was a bad game, but because I have a tight knit group of friends in DDO that wouldn't make the jump to ESO due to cost - $60 for the box and then $15/month. Whereas DDO …
What I find funny, I only voted in the first round. Yet, two of the three games I came to support made the top three. I came to vote for LoTRO, TSW, and DDO. Aside from WoW, I have no issues with any of the other games (I got banned from WoW a fe…
I tried, I really did, but I just couldn't get in to the game. The world is beautiful. The story lines aren't bad. But, it just didn't grab me. Glad to see it being successful, though.
Going to throw my token game suggestion - DDO. Free 2 play with the ability to unlock everything (lots of grind to do so completely free). Older game, so lower specced PCs can run the game. Fairly well populated on some servers (relatively speaki…
As lame and imperfect as it is, DDO for me. Been there 8+ years now. Just keep coming back to it. I've tried the WoW killers and hot newness that was supposed to usurp all others...and they just didn't feel like home.
edit- Just the guild I'm in…
Dungeons & Dragons
Any setting. Keep the character customization from DDO but add an upgraded graphics engine and middleware. Also, add in some sandbox elements (the premise of D&D doesn't really lend itself to full sandbox). But allow h…
DDO is a solid game for what you're looking for. A lot of under the hood customization options (visuals are a bit limited, but not horrid). Decent f2p options, but definitely geared more towards those that spend a little. If you don't go for fluf…
So far, I must say that it seems to be more a success on these forums than I would have thought. Given the, seemingly, pessimistic and contrary nature of many here; I'm quite surprised by the mostly positive response. Hopefully this bodes well for…
[quote]Then where do you think all these 5 million beta accounts are coming from? Other MMO games? I don't think even half of those players are MMO gamers, and think most of them are ES fans, why do you think after one year, the game is looking…
I think 8-10 weeks more dev time would make this game great...of course that time frame is completely arbitrary since I've never made a game. It just seems like it needs more time in the over before its ready to serve the masses.
I've decided to take a wait and see approach to the game. I was really excited. But, after two beta weekends and only a couple of weeks until launch, I'm going to hold off for a couple of months. It's not a bad game by any means. I just think it…
Here's my encounter list so far-
-Client crashing when closing a dialogue box
-Screen flickering when choosing different dialogue options
-Interface freezing when trying to use vendors
-Client crashing when completing vendor transaction (an…
What about games that have an in app store for purchases, but the currency to spend in the store can be earned, in app, without any real currency used (DDO, LoTRO)?
I would go ahead and upgrade your PSU. You're upgrading three plus generations of gear here. The power consumption is going to be increased. I think it would be worth it to do the minimum recommended PSU...after all, it is recommended for a reaso…
DDO seems to avoid the majority of the loud, rude player base somehow. There was a brief episode of their being in game when it first went to the f2p/sub hybrid system. But, the /squelch feature covering voice chat as well as typed led to them los…
Norse, you're trying to take something as subjective as personal experience with a genre of game, and set an ambassador for the players from that. And it comes off as an elitist, "I spend x money and y time so I know better than you" punk post. My…
Not sure if this will help. Doesn't seem to make sense to me either, but when I upgraded from a 1080 monitor to an 1152 (not really a huge jump, I know), my PC wouldn't recognize the new resolution until I went and changed the aspect ratio and refr…
The thing is, it's a self solving problem, really. If you're grouped with someone who can't tell his ass from a hole in the ground about his character, it's going to be obvious. And if it isn't obvious, then you're not better than he.
