    Gamers.. the only demographic that will act like total raging asshats to people and wonder why they don't want to talk with them anymore.
    And people wonder why I don't enjoy playing games with others very much these days...(outside of friends of course)


    The number of guilds I have quit in the last five years insane. Its funny when they ask why and I have tell them that I don't care for hate speech, people talking s**t about others, etc...

    I get enough of it in the real world. Don't need it when I am trying to relax
    The number of guilds I have quit in the last decade is zero.

    Measure twice cut once as they say.


    So with nothing to compare to you don't know if you are in a good guild or not eh?

    Many people in North Korea believe they live in the greatest nation on earth....

    ;)
    I am wagering like me, he has a static, a small circle of people he runs with. But at the same time, since I try out new and different games, I end up joining dozens of guilds, often, with me leaving the game, but kinda forgetting to leave the guild, so, technically I never quit them, they most likely saw I had not logged on in a month or so and cleaned their roster.

    Equally so, if I saw a name from that guild that I recognized, in another game, I'd run with them there, nothing against most people, which to be honest, when you have a static, it functions like a bubble, in the fact that you don't need to deal with anyone.

    Which kinda explains how he could not handle me giving him some minimal chiding, and blocked me, while he is going whole hog bashing on Caspian and then making a fuss that Caspian finds that crap annoying.

    Pots and kettles in that case, IMHO.
    I'm so bad. Today I received an email from an old WOW guild I apparantly once belonged to, but am still struggling to remember who they were, which server, and realm.

    The number of guilds, clans, statics, and corps I've been a member of are legion.

    ;)

    Serpentius?Today at 7:31 PM

    Who would have thought I need to look up Serpentius on discord to find info as well. While I never found this post, really couldn't be bothered scrolling back so many pages to try find it. I only have one thought about it. Looks like something a kid made in paint. 

    While searching for this post. The amount of time Serpentius has said "Thanks for the feedback" "Noted" "We hear you". He must have each one macro to his keyboard. I would have thought people overall would be not caring anymore, about when DSS finally starts. Well not caring as much. But seems removing the dates was a very short term fix. Or maybe SBS saying over and over "it will only be a few more days" have finally snapped people.

    Also looks like even Serpentius is getting slowly sick of people repeating the same complaint over and over. Trying to silent people a few times. Which really, trying to hide the problem, doesn't make the problem go away.

    Oh my, think of the mayhem one could cause by posting this on the COE forums as a "secretly" leaked map from the ivory tower forums.

    Probably cause the fall of several kingdoms in the first day.

    Well the outlines of the maps have been known for a long time.  Remember the big “Map Selection” event from last year?  The pic I linked showed the breakdown of the areas that players can claim on those maps.

    Don't talk such lies, you must have been working on this for months. Talking like it's so simple to create a map!

    But seriously, I have heard I will be able to view the CoE map in VR.

    Actually the whole thing took me about 4-5 hours. Campaign Cartographer 3 comes with all the assets and is easy to use. The dominions map converter to get it in the game is pretty good too. I still had to go in and manually set all the connections and check all 108 land and 85 sea provinces to make sure everything worked in the game. The map is way larger in the actual game and very zoomed out in this image.

    Personally I would have had the maps done before the kickstarter. Pretty laughable.

    Also I like maps, if you do too, check out the software I used.

    By hand maps are better than randomly generated. If CoE think they can invent a software tool to generate maps better than a person they need to think again. Unless they think they are inventing an AI, because that's what it will take. :)

    Trove uses randomly generated maps, that involved, at my last count, 6 unique biodomes with all with their own unique mobs, harvesting nodes (both above and below ground) 2 different tiers of dungeons (Keeps and Castles), random chances at Dragons and other large scale world bosses, and at least 3 of them have their own unique kind of liquid. 

    As such, this is not some new "break out" technology to generate random world maps on the fly, nor would it take some super AI to pull it off, as Trove has been doing exactly this idea, for the last 3 years.

    Someone should make a game about hookers and drugs with real aging and death.  Something fearless in design that embraces the character's ability to impact other characters....Maybe launch a Kickstarter....
