swashbuckling adventure sequel?
w
t
f?????

guess Ascaron sold them the rights to Port Royale
Next up, Patrician: The terror of the seas

Looking at the video and those interesting bits "CoD of the boat sims"
Seems there still is trading, wonder if the economy reacts the same way as in PR2 where you could potentially buy out commodities and manipulate prices throughout the game world (if u had the gold)

News Comments > Mists of Pandaria Sales Disappointing?

imo MMOs need to go the route of one world server about now, no more 100 people on server x and you're stuck with 10 people on yours.
Ofc then you'd get ping issues etc. So that's where they need to develop more tech to handle that in some way

Down here in Australia the minimum wage is $20 per hour. I've heard from some Americans that minimum wage there is around $7 even.

Doing a quick Google search revealed this to be true.

News Comments > On EVE Online and Dust 514
12. Re: On EVE Online and Dust 514 Sep 4, 2011, 10:36 aesir05
 
CCP has already hinted that Dust may come to PC.

besides that, exclusive games are usually on consoles only, they can usually make their way onto PCs without any issues, Gears of Wars, Halo and such

Dust is an experiment, it has to be a great shooter to at the least hold its ground against COD and Battlefield and the EVE mechanic can match it for other online stuff
bah I'm sleepy :p

It seems that EVE-Online is still populated by those "if you aren't tough enough to play EVE, go play WOW"- elitist geeks that the game was full of while I still played it.
Quite funny, yet the sheer self-denial "We are not typical MMOG geeks, we are tough elite of MMOGs !" is almost tragic.

oh you poor soul you must have really sucked at eve
:p
try it again they've made a few tutorials to make it easier for people

If you get good at making money in game you can easily pay 350mil ISK to purchase a plex.
A dude in my corp spends 5 days mining to pay for his month then goes and does whatever he wants to rest of the month.

Tho you'll need a hulk and orca to do how he does it like a billion in equipment alone :p

plex is an in-game item that you can buy if you choose to get rich quick without going and buying isk from illegal websites.
Plex is also used to renew your subscription but it can be expensive or cheap depending on how you look at it.

End of the day you don't really have to invest more than $14 for a month's subscription.

As far as the other thing you mentioned, EVE is not for everyone, EVE is hard, if you don't want to play MMOs that's fine, if you don't like EVE cause its "tough" maybe you should try out WOW instead.

News Comments > The Old Republic Doesn't Require Origin
22. Re: The Old Republic Doesn't Require Origin Jun 17, 2011, 04:56 aesir05
 
IMO the main reason why Origin is getting a bad rep from everyone is the exclusivity deal they announced yesterday.
Most people who are on their preferred digital distributor like steam would like all or most of their games on steam.
Since Origin is trying to get more people to use their service they announced that most new games will be exclusive to Origin for a certain time period.
Most people don't like that, like me I would like to get Mass Effect 3 or the next Dragon Age on Steam and play them on day 1.
This forces me to either wait for the game to come out on steam after a week or month or get it from Origin.

This is primarily the reason why people are already hating Origin.

I would have liked to get my games off steam, but I'll wait or get it off other sources and play till they release it on steam.

News Comments > Activision Publishing Boss Quits
18. Re: Activision Publishing Boss Quits Apr 29, 2010, 09:05 aesir05
 
He just resigned from his position as CEO and President of Publishing, he's still with the company probably getting paid shit loads and all kinds of allowances.

Suits are overpaid agree with that 100%
If they actually did something and not fuck people over it would be worth the extra $ they get paid, but in the gaming industry they have to look at every developer, programmer and artist as more than a number because their experience and willingness to work will make or break a company not like P&G where R&D designs something or they buy an idea and the process workers take over, you can get anyone to work in a factory but not as a game dev of any kind.

Most of them bring their experiences in management from other industries which can mean didly squat if they cannot "think outside the box" and adapt. I'm pretty sure Blizzard doesn't think of anyone working for them as a number.
