• • New Interface updates FTW

  • My gang and i are really enjoying the updated interfaces, the quieter and less noticable lag and over all improvements!  The crew and ship displays make it easier to see what you're doing and what your crew is doing, and tell which parts of the ship have been hit.  I haven't tried the privateering yet but may soon do so on an alt.

• • So... Much... Lag... Can't... Play... Right...

  • they did some upgrades since last week and the lag is down significantly so that our playstyle has changed a bit - its got a much better feel and lag is only noticable occasionally - if you wait it out after about 5 min it calms down and is unnoticable once more.

• • Pirates of the Carribean? Huh?

  • I havent' really found it to be a 'grinding' game.  I play everquest, everquest2 and city of heros.  you want to talk grinding games?  I quit EQ because of the monotonous grinding required to level.  City of heros can also get firmly into the grinding rut.

    It's not the 'best game ever'.  Its a good game.  Like it or don't, i couldn't care less.  But  other people liking it or not liking it will not stop me from enjoying it.  There are some very popular games out there that i think are piles of whale drek - enjoy em all you want.  I won't.  No one requires you to like games i like and vice versa.

    get off the negativity bandwagon.  Its a nice little game.  its not for everyone.  thats all.

• • EverQuest II: Vivox Voice Chat on EQII Test Server

  • its very nice that you can talk to the rest of your guild in vent.  Too bad we dont' all have vent so if we group with you, its done in silence while the rest of you talk to each other.

      This is a little bigger than that - in theory, anyone who joins the group can use it.  We don't have to try to mesh to whatever the other person's using, its built into the game. 

    I have been in test - both group and guild work very well.  we experianced framerate drop when someone joined or left the voice channel, so don't try to add someone in the middle of a fight - add them and wait for the game to settle down first - it does.  We didnt' test out private message chat yet - we both only had a few minutes to jump into the game.  its surprizingly clear and fast, no lag while talking once the connection was established.  You can adjust someone's volume from clicking on their 'personal' tag - so just the same way as you would inspect or mentor by right clicking them.  you can do it apparently by slash command too, but we didnt' have time to mess with it yet.

• • Where can I buy game cards

  • I tried to get this for a freind in england who is playing but so far no luck at all.  the only place i know of who sells the game cards is Target, a retail store in the USA.  I asked Disney about this issue and they said that right now that is your only recourse, to buy them through Target.
