I think you had him at "tied to a chair."

[/ QUOTE ]

We took it to PMs after that.

[/ QUOTE ]

The reason I can't send Manticore a PM is because his PM box is currently filled up with the "safe word?"

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, that does look more in proportion now. Hope it wasn't too hard to fix...

Ahem, anyways, awesome picture, LadyJ!

...damn.

All of the bugs or QoL issues that have been lingering for what seems like forever because the programmers were too busy fixing the major bugs.

[/ QUOTE ]

if that were only the case. no, they were too busy making sure villains and heroes couldn't get certain badges and breaking other issues in the game. we still have no IoP.

[/ QUOTE ]

You need to check the boards better before mouthing off.

One of the goals at the new studio is to hire a lot more Engineers to come in so that Bases can be worked on and fixed. Base Raiding, IoPs, everything is going to pushed to get working.

[/ QUOTE ]

You're welcome!

<QR>

Hopefully with the free CoV, we'll see an actvity spike in bases and in turn base raids and the IoP trail will get some Dev loving.

Already in the works, as Neutra relates in the transcript of Jester's interview with Posi and Lighthouse here.

EDIT: Fixed link.

Errr... far be it from me to make a critique (as I'm not really an artist and all)... but her legs look out of proportion from the rest of her body? They look too long to me. Maybe it's just the perspective, I don't know. Sorry >.>

Bwhahahaha!

No, I'm not kidding. Trying to find the link now, but it's proving elusive.

Cryptic will be leasing the needed aspects to NCSoft.

Here's to hoping this announcement is DOUBLE good news for me. Staffing up GOOD!

[/ QUOTE ]

For those interested in gainful gaming employment, check out the NCsoft North America Jobs Listing. Positions for "Mountain View" would be in our newly formed NCsoft NorCal Studio.

[/ QUOTE ]


hmmm. They have an opening for "Powers Designer".

hey Castle, can I use you as a reference?

[/ QUOTE ]

*cracks Fanboy upside the head with a Nerf bat*

Silly fool. We want Arcanaville to take that job.

I think I12 will be a little too early to start seeing the fruits of an increased staff. After all, the devs are already hard at work on it right now while concurrently working on bug fixes and whatnot for the current issue on Test.

IMHO, we'll start to see the really big changes happening with I13, whenever that is.

Receiving the TR updates filled with language like "let's go soldiers! on your feet marines! attennnnnnSHUN!" just made me cringe and drift off. I didn't wanna be a soldier

[/ QUOTE ]

Heh, this I can agree with. I already did 6 years in the US Navy, and while I'm proud to have served... I don't wanna go through that again.

There's a distinct lack of DOOM here.

I find that odd, like everyone's walking down the railroad tracks whistling a merry tune...not hearing the "CHOO CHOO" in the distance, getting louder and louder..."

Business change hands in two situations:

First, cos they are new and extremely, unexpectedly successful and a big company snaps them up.

Second, because the end of the business' lifetime is on the horizin and the original owners want to cut and run so they can pursue better things. The new owner then maintains the products until they naturally wind down.

I don't see how anyone could think the first scenario is active here. The kiss of death for an MMO is the moment when people are no longer required to pay a subscription. This isn't *quite* what we have here, but the "opening up both sides to everyone" smacks a little of that idea.

I'll keep an open mind and see what happens, but I'm worried(tm).

[/ QUOTE ]

You'd have a point, except that NCSoft set up an entire new studio just for this game. If this game were on the decline, I somehow doubt that a big multinational company such as NCSoft would set up a new studio for a fading enterprise.

And what does Garriot have to do with COH? Nothing, so... shrug on that one.

[/ QUOTE ]

Ummm.... he owns it now.

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, was just gonna say... since Garriot is NCsoft's North American President of Operations and all... he's Posi's boss now (after this Brian Clayton person)

Same thing, still just get a tiny gray bar at the top of the image.

*blames dA, not Bradders*

I can get to the page fine, it's just the image itself isn't loading. Again, not your fault Bradders.

EDIT: Finally! Very nice, I like it!

*curses at dA*

Something's wrong, I only get the first couple of lines at the top of the image. >.<

"Yeah," Tommy said. "I think I scared a couple'a sophmores away from her. I told her ta dress like Ino or Sakura, but no it was all 'I wanna dress like Shikamaru!' an she wouldn't budge. Typical fer her."

Damn! I really like how Shield and Nike turned out, Juggy! Another +fav.

Old but known bug. If you get too far from an NPC that you're escorting (enough that they lose targeting on you), they sometimes 'switch sides' like that.

*counts off natural disasters he's been in*

5 hurricanes;
1 tsunami;
1 tornado;
2 earthquakes

Also, while my home wasn't in the path, I've had to deal with wildfires as well.

I don't think Mother Nature likes me too much...

+fav'ed it, I love the action bubbles overhead.
