I've heard lots of bitching and lots of praise. It seems that you're either strongly in favor of this game or strongly against it. I haven't tried it though.

Fuck yeah! I've always wanted to make Krabby Patties! And I hope there's a quest to finally get Sandy in to bed. Rawr.

- is rumoured by an anonymous source that it will be Source 2 / HL3
- will not announced by Gabe, as he won't be at e3

I'd be very surprised if HL3 were announced without Gabe. Seems like something he'd want to be in on.

Also, I clicked the link only because Hellbinder freaked out. Was not disappointed.

Previous one was very linear. Not sure if I played #1 or #2. Basically you just follow the path and clear it out. I enjoyed whichever one it was, but it certainly wasn't amazing. The co-op helped a lot.

My problem was never with the gear of casuals vs raiders. I knew, in Vanilla and BC, that my gear sucked compared to other people. It was awesome when I got a purple, but it didn't bother me. What bugged the hell out of me, though, is that I didn't get to see the high-end raids. Naxx (original) was the final straw and I quit because of that instance (only to return a year later). Here's this awesome new instance that they spent a bit of time on, and what was the final number that saw it? Like 1% of the playerbase? Fuck raiders for thinking they deserve content anymore than casuals.

I like how they're handling it in Wrath and Cata. Make a 10 man and 25 man version. That way I can still see the content, and the hardcore raiders can beat themselves up over the 25 achievements. Oh wait, they said they see no point in doing 25 man in Cata since gear is the same. Here's the solution: Put a machine in Dalaran that dispenses uber gear if you manage to push a button 50,000 times. Since raiders aren't raiding for fun and just gear, it'll be ideal for them.

I played a few days ago for the first time (I bought it during the xmas sales). I can't aim worth shit with their system. Firing a gun in space is probably not the easiest thing, though, even if the suit does compensate for it. Still, sucks to not be able to hold a gun steady before firing.

Vanilla sucked. BC sucked, but less. Wrath is awesome. I have T10 gear with minimal effort. As an added bonus, it makes the raiders QQ.

Same bug here. She just stood there in the way in the teleporter, casually watching me and blinking. Kinda creepy. A reload fixed it.

Has Alyx always been killable? I'm noticing she dies now if I'm not there covering her. I thought she just fell over and then got back up. Now I get a big "You lose, loser" message. First time on hard mode, though, so that may be why.

Looking forward to this. Trying to avoid the beta so I don't end up in a buggy game and hating it. I may cave in though. Anyone know if the fancy graphics have been turned on yet?

Another thing I hate:

Your account will be created immediately and with a successful purchase or activation you can download and start playing Darkfall immediately.

Why the hell do they make you activate a trial before downloading it. The thing is several gigs in size. Let your users download it, install it, and patch it before requiring activation. Especially on a trial.

I've heard the same thing. I actually downloaded the trial but never paid the $1 to activate it, since I figure there's no point. From what I read, people were exploiting the game to skill up so they could at least stand a chance of surviving (the one I read about was swimming in rivers while AFK to level up swimming).

I really want a newer skill-based MMO, just not one that is hardcore PvP.

I wonder what the male / female ratio is. 1 to 1000?

I know that was tongue-in-cheek, but WoW seems to have a much higher female ratio than other MMOs. There's probably some stats on it somewhere. Wish I could go, if for nothing else than to get a pet.

Anyone know if Beat Hazard lets you remap your keys yet? I know they added azerty support, but it sounded like it was just hard coded in instead of a simple ini file or some other method to change key bindings. I hate WASD (I use ESDF). Feels funky to switch.

Nice additions to the game (solo PvE will be nice for a change). I think I'll login over the weekend and check it out.

All these sound wonderful, but what about a frickin' point to the game? The very first time you enter the game, you run a mission (solo). It's the one and only time you even see a glimpse of a story.

I think Perception makes it easier to spot traps. Or something like that. I know I read something about it. Maybe it makes them glow.
