I'm glad you are enjoying it Rev, plenty more to come.

I think comparing Guild Wars 2's PvP to DAoC is certainly not an insult. I know a lot of people have fond memories of Camelot. Not the tv show though that was rubbish (just don't tell Ed I said that).

It is rather exciting, of course I'm not jealous of those in beta this weekend. No, not at all.
Sigh.
Thanks Pedro, Gary and the rest of the guys and girls have put a phenomenal amount of work in.

You're not alone in your anticipation Connor. I can't wait to play it,

Now there's a worthy request. CCP does do a great job on putting EVE's atmosphere across in their promos.

At the end of the video there's actually a link to another promo that covers the new player experience. EVE really is challenging but the rewards are unlike any other MMO out there.

Nice Fantom, you going ratting, mining or something else?

It's not the worst thing out there but it certainly has some kinks. But there's little upside about this story for Origin, beyond those they snagged in the first day.

Re: Mass Defect

ScottHawkes — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:42:38 -0000

That's exactly how I interpreted it Cody. We could be wrong of course but I haven't seen anything to disprove it.

I think their main issue is it just makes them look daft. As you said Double, it was hard not to realize this would be so popular. Gamers who went to order after the deal was up might be a bit peeved.

BioWare have had some critics but they do seem to be heading in the right direction with the sheer number of patches they're pumping out.

ScottHawkes — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:46:17 -0000

Hopefully the fix will allow the tin foil hats to come off and the hair to blow in the wind. It must get sweaty under the shiny headgear.

ScottHawkes — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:47:07 -0000

It is amazing how small fixes can make players' lives so much easier.
Glad you like it Double.
And yes he is.

It's my alter ego. Frankly I prefer Joey's picture.

My wife is stuck in the same boat Jade. We'll have to get her a WIndows copy so she can Bootcamp too.

Re: The Force Down Under

ScottHawkes — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:52:36 -0000

Glad you like it Kiki, and yes it's very smart of BioWare to cater to the needs of our Antipodean cousins. Just don't mention the Ashes...

Re: Exit Stage Left

ScottHawkes — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:53:51 -0000

I'm sure the folks at BioWare will be feeling his absence keenly as they continue to develop SWTOR Michael. Very cool that you met him.

Re: Pandas Bamboozle

ScottHawkes — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 22:01:01 -0000

Have to say Cody I was pretty much set on not buying it...but I'm being swayed.

Mike was simply asking the question on behalf of those who might not fully know Newell's story. We can't assume everyone knows all of the details before we publish every article.

Re: Valve Opens Up

ScottHawkes — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 12:43:57 -0000

I think there's plenty of people who aren't cave-dwellers who are unaware of Gabe Newell's life story. One of our aims is to grow our community and inform as we do. So please understand if we include some background detail for the newcomer.

Glad to be of service JB.

Interesting Chris, Do you follow EVE news usually to get info on DUST? If so where did you first hear about DUST?

Re: Better By Design

ScottHawkes — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 15:50:14 -0000

Absolutely, particularly EVE as it could really expand its player base with some NPE improvements.

Re: Better By Design

ScottHawkes — Thu, 23 Feb 2012 15:51:13 -0000

It does have that appeal, let me know what you think of the new updates,

By the way, excuse the monumental cold I'm suffering with.
