• • **** G15 and Nostromo N52 will fail ****

  • I hope they do something to combat the macro capabilities of those keyboards. If they specifically took a lot of functionality out of macros in game then no one should be able to get around it because of a keyboard.

    If they do allow those keyboards then they need to allow 3rd party macro programs. If they allow those then they might as well allow bots.  Slippery slope.

• • WoW will be fine, no danger to subs

  • Because people still have fun playing it.

    Some do indeed have fun playing it but others are bore and just going through the motions

    Because it is possible to play more than one game.

    For many people it isn't possible or feasible to play 2 games at once. $30 a month might be a lot or they like devoting themselves to one game.  Is it possible? yes but for many just not an option they want to entertain.

    Because it is possible to enjoy more than one game.

    Again going back to my previous statement. Can you enjoy 2 games? Yes but when your friends out level you or you miss an event because you were playing another game enjoyment goes down.

    Because they have the funds to keep it going.

    Lots of games that "failed" still have funds to keep it going so no worries there.

    Because it doesn't matter that you 'wish wow fails'.

    Many wish WoW fails to spite Blizzard(myself included). Most don't want it to fail but rather for their new game to be succesful.

    Because every game that has been set to compete with WoW has failed.

    Failed in which sense? AoC is still going, LotR is doing well, EQII is still going strong. Failed is very subjective. Do they have the numbers as WoW? Nope but that doesn't mean they failed.

    Because WAR is a good game, but so is WoW. IMO, and in 11 millions others minds

    Welcome to group think! Many people follow their friends regaurdless of how good a game actually is. WAR is a good game and thats why many view it as the new game to play leaving behind the old good game WoW.

    Because people have time invested, and a lot of it

    The Expansion will erase all of that time and will offer a perfect time to switch over to WAR.

    Because some of my friends still play it, and so do some of yours.

    All my friends quit for 1 of 2 reasons. Blizzard(nuff said) or for WAR.

    Because those of us having fun playing WoW could care less about the back and forth flamewars between fanbois on sites like this....

    A post shows that you care and are trying to convince others to remain with WoW.

     

    Many of WoWs subscribers have been bored with WoW for years. Just there is no alternative. WAR is the first major alternative that looks to have promise. As older players leave they will take others with them. Once new players see the old players leaving they will wonder if they know something and follow suit. Snowball effect.

    Play the game you like. I have played WoW and experienced everything that Blizzard had to offer.

    As for interllectual statements. There are idiots in every game. The problem is that Blizzard panders to them and gives them a home in the name of money.

    Nope. Common sense says if you are under sea level that at some point you will be under the sea!

• • Health, how much of it do YOU have?

  • 4-10k depending on how you stack your gear/renown/tactics/buffs.

    Believe my DoK had 5k, my chosen had 7k.. my sorcerer had 5k.

• • Darkfall versus WAR

  • All I got from that video is some decent environments and really bad animations. They show NOTHING for game mechanics and game play is everything. Show me some UI, some skills, a map, etc. I hope the game has everything they said it would but honestly I highly doubt it will.
