I hear you. There is usually a huge difference between possible options and optimal decisions. You can make a game with infinite possibilities, but over time the players will discover the optimal decisions and that will become standard. Hence, the meta. If it is more beneficial to make 100...

No matter how I look at it, I just can't imagine this game feeling complete without a robust base building element. I know they have talked about building some structures. They've even talked about player owned asteroids, but I want to see more. I want to see more than just a glorified...

My vote would be for blind owl 2.jpg. That thing looks wicked. You can't discount the sexy owl though...

The false advertisement claims were investigated by UK's ASA. They investigated 10 separate claims and failed to uphold a single one of them. The fact that some of those claims were very black and white makes me doubt the legitimacy of this "investigation". They literally said certain...

Honestly, NMS was so blatantly and completely a scam upon release that I just can't look at it again. That program will never touch my hard drive ever again. I refuse to take any action that could possibly condone or forgive what happened when the game released. To say that I was burned is an...

I flip back and forth on the subject. I try to be patient and succeed most of the time. Sometimes though, the setbacks get the better of me and I feel the frustration creeping back in. My issues are less about setbacks like the vertical slice though and more about the ever widening gap...

Game changer? It can only be the Gold Saucer... in space. Mini games? They're in it. Gladiator matches? Yep. Gambling? Of course. It's even got fking chocobo races... Honestly though, I would love to see a casino ship. Sign me up and take my money.

You should definitely read it. You're doing it in the proper order too. If you were to read the book and then watch the movie, you would find the movie incredibly inadequate. They left so much out. They did decent with what they had, but the book has alot of needed info. Hell, they even...

LOL, rogue pee streams. When I was younger, I saw my baby brother catch my mom with one of those. I laugh hysterically about it to this day...

I'm thinking around 40 gigs, maybe a little more. My folder is over 30 gigs now, so it's not too outlandish to think that it will jump over 40. The difference between the game world we have now on the PU to what we will have after 3.0 is pretty big. Release will be a whole different bag of...

I'm right there with you. It's not that games are losing quality. They have evolved a bit, but there have always been over hyped junk games. Just looking back at some of the trainwreck NES games will tell you that. Some were really, really bad. The truly good games were maybe 5-10% of all...

I don't know if I'm alone in this, but I used to love going to small towns and visiting the bars. You meet the coolest people over a pool table. Aside from tourist attractions (most of which is rarely better in real life than in a picture) big cities all offer the same stuff to do. You can't...

It's official. I can drive! I kinda cheated though. Just to be safe, I took a few shots of rum before taking the test. I wanted to be clear headed...

I realize my last post never really gave my response to the OP's question. I would need to go with the Hurricane as well. However, that obviously could change at any moment. There are loads of ships that are yet to come out and balancing or reworking that is planned or inevitable. We all...

I seriously hope this is the case. I have been very vocal on CIG's forums in the past about this involving one particular aspect, fly by mouse. Right now, it is extremely user friendly to use the mouse to aim your gimbals and have your ship sort of "auto-follow". So basically you're aiming...

Disclaimer: I am currently sober so I apologize if this makes no sense. So I hit the internet the other day because I was curious about the planet scale. Along the way, I ran across an interview that sent me flying in a completely different direction. That interview was this one [HERE]...

I am right there with you. EQ was my first real jump into the MMO genre and you're right. I logged in a year ago with my original character and ran around Kelethin. It was amazing to be running around in the game again. It was the same sort of feeling I had when I went home to see my folks...

I've thought about this a bit and I don't think so. The logic behind that may me unique to me though. For now, I am merely following the development and dipping my toe into the content every once in a while. So even with the limited percentage of overall release content in the game now, I...

I may not have the most applicable advice, but here's my $0.02. To preface this I need to state that I am not, nor will I ever be, the kind of guy that is drawn to the new shiny. I find that the shiny new toys tend to come grossly overpriced, full of problems, and sold to us using fancy terms...

I had some Captain Morgan's Private Stock with a splash of coke. I didn't want to overdo it. I have to leave for the airport at 4am...
