Thanks for all the help explaining.
As big as this is, I thought everyone would know what was going on but a lot of players probably visit the forums once a month, or less.
I'm actually a big fan of the idea of walking around in stations and…
The only thing I don't like about the idea is that people might change their story just to get the title. Especially if there isn't an equally worthy nugget at the end of the other choices.
I was an ardent supporter of the old school style of combat, but that comes from my PnP days. But having played Mass Effect, I've really changed my mind. All the abilities are really in the background (like they should be) and you just have to conce…
I had to go with 'Leave after a few months.'
I really think that the game will have to sacrifice some mechanics in order to make the story line portion as good as it is.
The result of that will be many players working through a class or two. The…
I'm okay with this so long as some of the advanced classes aren't lost in technicalities.
What I mean by that is, I don't want there to be one advanced class that out DPSs the others, otherwise you aren't really a DPS class. I don't want conversat…
I want each race to be its own faction.
But I also want each faction to have a chain of quests (both PvE and PvP) that can be done in order to ally with another faction.
For example:
Two large guilds, one from IoM, one from Tau decide they're …
After watching the video, it appears to me that their current space flight system fits the story theme of the game. There's a reason why Star Wars wasn't several days long. There isn't a whole lot of story in watching a ship bump around through hype…
I've said both before, I'll say both again ...
Whoever thought to put DDO in Ebberon and not Forgotten Realms should've been fired as soon as their idiot lips parted.
There are a LOT of MMO'ers that cut their teeth by rolling dice in FR. None of…
We talked and talked about how important it was to include something ... anything ... than just combat missions. The market they were looking to break into didn't materialize because it wasn't "Star Trek-y" or "Iconic".
They're backpedalling now, …
Well, blaming WoW is like blaming a Casino. You did choose to walk in the door.
But there is a lot of psychological tricks they use to convince you to walk in the door and just bet a little. "You make yourself fat, not McDonalds" is a rather ignor…
People can be critical of reading the dialogue or not ... that's fine.
But the fact is, if you're trying to re-play this game with an alt, 99% of people are going to skip the dialogue (if it's the same or similar). So if he says it's a bit lacklus…
I like paladins and have never played WoW. But that's because of my fascination with most medieval knights (who were closer to paladins than fighters, minus the wavy magic stuff). And I like it as a 'mix' class, when there is a class system instead …
I really could've picked any one of them. This is a HUGE assumption, but I really think that the story is going to be built around the force sensitive warriors. The other classes will probably just have branches that lead into the same story and the…
I'd like them to branch out. I like FPS. I like RPG. And lots of the shooters with progression and XP are kind of edging that way even now. It used to be a volume issue. They just couldn't make areas big enough for the RPG world feel and small enoug…
Personally, I think that if you have to restrict a class choice by race, then it isn't a good race to have in game, or it isn't a good class to have in game. It just forces people into a mold that they may not want to be in. If they offered bonuses,…
I think if they write the stories correctly, you can be a loner and still have companions. For a bounty hunter, a snitch (agent), a dupe (trooper), a hacker (droid).
If they don't, then you're right, you won't be what the iconic class is supposed …
Old SWG.
Random resources.
Random results.
Like 3+ sliders on everything you made, each one important (until they took out decay, then the armor/hp ones didn't), and each one letting you choose if you traded weight for power for shots / sec or…
