00:02.33Tulleryou break them?
00:06.35cogwheelapparently...
00:06.52Maldiviacogwheel: you know... you break it, you buy it.
00:07.12cogwheelyep... i'm on a $15/mo payment plan XD
00:19.12teomyrmage class call is very bad in phase 3 *sigh*
00:19.47Maldivianot really
00:20.13Maldiviaphase 3 is so short

00:20.45cladhairewarlocks ftw then =)
00:21.10Maldiviashaman call can be worse :)
00:21.18AmadeoI don't even know what class calls are
00:21.31MaldiviaAmadeo: boss ability at Nefarian
00:21.33hasteMaldivia: warrior call is pretty evil also
00:21.33teomyrwell, we don't have to care about shamans ;)
00:21.38hastesame with priest :D
00:21.46hasteand shaman call isn't evil in phase 3
00:21.49AmadeoMaldivia: What's it do?
00:21.50teomyryes, warrior call just wiped us :(
00:22.01hasteAmadeo: it drains around 3500 mana from every shaman
00:22.11AmadeoOh, and it changes per class?
00:22.17Maldiviahaste: all the skeletons get the buffs from the totems
00:22.23hasteMaldivia: nope
00:22.29Maldiviaohh, they fixed that?
00:22.57hasteit never was like that afaik
00:23.00Maldiviawell, it was last time I tried Nef on a horde... LONG time ago though
00:23.01hastewe always go into phase 3 during shaman/warlock/hunter/druid call
00:23.15hastetotems have NEVER buffed nef or his foes
00:23.30hastethe  totems do buff each other tho'
00:23.46Maldiviahunter, rogue, paladin are the best phase 3 calls
00:24.06hasteoh, add rogue to my list :D
00:25.41Maldiviahaste: well, only played nef on a friends horde char, normally play alliance...
00:26.01Maldiviabut just looked it up on wowwiki, and according to that, nef and skeletons recieve totem buffs..
00:26.20zenzelezzhow bad warrior call is depends pretty much on how many healers you have (alive)
00:26.50ShadowedWarrior call can be pretty bad regardless of how many healers you have alive
00:27.00Maldiviaworst combo is mage call, MT getting polymorphed and then fear hits at the exact same time
00:27.28Maldiviaand then nef turns and shadow flames the raid
00:27.30nevcairielplus shadowflame
00:27.30Shadowedi'd consider warrior to be the worst really
00:27.31nevcairiel:)
00:27.35zenzelezzcan be, but we usually survive warrior call unless we're low on healers
00:27.46nevcairielwarrior call isnt that bad
00:28.08Shadowedif you're the typical guild who isn't in full wrath ect, it can be an issue with bad luck
00:28.12Maldiviatrue, they take 20% more damage, but that's shoulnd't be a problem
00:28.33TainMy favorite is Rogue call when he ports the Rogues right behind him.
00:28.35zenzelezztrue, it depends a bit on gear and such
00:28.46Shadowedshadowflame + crit + some other bad luck
00:28.49MaldiviaTain: you mean, the 99% of the rogue calls :)
00:29.12zenzelezzmy guild might be dropping BWL soon... focusing on Naxx until BC
00:29.27Maldiviamy current guild just started AQ40 :)
00:29.31TainNaah its only been about half the Rogue calls on my raids.
00:29.50Shadowedwe've mostly dropped BWL, which sucks because i still need a LGG
00:30.02MaldiviaTain: ohh... I've seen less than 5 rogue calls, in my times with nef, where the rogues actually ended up infront of him
00:30.06zenzelezzon a good day we do AQ40 up to and including twins, but we haven't taken C'thun (reached phase 2), but stopped trying in favor of Naxx
00:31.02XuerianRandom question.. <.<... What was the browser included with Mac OS9?
00:31.08TainSafari
00:31.09zenzelezzwe only go BWL when we've got an unbalanced raid for AQ40/Naxx, and only since a few of us "new guys" (brought in during the summer shortage when people were away) still could use some items there
00:31.19TainOh OS9.  hah
00:31.20Xuerianthanks, Tain. :)
00:31.32TainI don't even know if that's right then.
00:31.34XuerianNo? >.>

01:01.13purlaw, gee, Mike-N-Go
01:01.22JoshBork1what's up?
01:01.22Mike-N-GoYup.
01:01.35Mike-N-GoEsamynn is assisting me.

01:01.58Mike-N-GoIt is working more better, but not fully :)
01:02.33JoshBork1did the code i give you work?
01:03.05Mike-N-GoIt is helping.
01:03.23JoshBork1glad to hear it :-)
01:03.25Mike-N-GoNow, it does not give errors from inside your block :D
01:03.54Mike-N-GoI still have some nil value on GetServerInfo() and UnitFaction()
01:04.31JoshBork1unit faction should work fine
01:05.12Mike-N-GoWell, it is on the same line, so I just guess.
01:05.29JoshBork1you should really tell us exactly what the error is :_)
01:06.00EsamynnMike-N-Go: if you'd post up the newest version I told you I'd take another look ;)
01:06.16Mike-N-GoMany different errors, I move something around, and then it is a different .

01:19.47JoshBork1have you heard the latest key theory?
01:19.54Cairennnow what?
01:20.01JoshBork1people below #150 didn't get keys
01:20.37CideI know at least one person for which that's true, but I don't know if it's consistent

01:20.48JoshBork1i'm #5!
01:20.54Amadeotheories now :)
01:20.59JoshBork1lol Amadeo
01:21.05Garoun|LoupanaI was 110 and didn't :) so it could likely be a valid theory
01:21.32Tuller74, I still like my theory though
01:21.43EsamynnMike-N-Go: http://pastey.net/2345
01:21.44JoshBork1taurens?
01:21.52Mike-N-GoCan  "SEND_MAIL_COD_CHANGED" be used to prevent mail that does not have something in the COD slot from being sent? Currently, if you have an item in the COD slot, then Keybinding+click on item then it sends the item in the COD pane to the soulbound's type recipient....

02:47.38GuillotineNaurbrannon: Its a dagger that does arcane damage
02:47.47Mike-N-GoAnd how do I "cite" CT_MM, or do I need to?
02:47.53Guillotinethere was a bug where the arcane damage was being affected by +damage and spells
02:47.55WarlaCairenn whats with that thread? i see a lot whining what happened?
02:48.04CideMike-N-Go: first of all, you want to rename the tooltip
02:48.11Cairenna bunch of keys never came through, twice
02:48.26Cidereplace CT_MMTooltip with MailDirectorTooltip
02:48.26Mike-N-GoYah, prefix it with AMD
02:48.47Mike-N-GoOr is it better to use long names?
02:48.56Cidejust preference
02:49.08Cidebut make sure it's somewhat unique so you don't get a global name collision
02:49.36Mike-N-GoLess conflict if someone else has the same name, and this wont be displayed to an avg user of said addon.
02:50.14Cideif you're using MailDirectorTooltip as the name:
02:50.27Naurbrannonmmm may I get my submission accepted btw? ^^
02:50.27Cideand then at line 8 of your file or so, add: local t = CreateFrame("GameTooltip", "MailDirectorTooltip", WorldFrame, "GameTooltipTemplate"); t:SetOwner(WorldFrame, "ANCHOR_NONE")
02:51.17KirkburnThis is incredible (and you can try it yourself, as I am!) http://www.istartedsomething.com/20061110/photosynth-screencast/
02:51.54Mike-N-GoOk, after I prevent non-item mails to be sent, do you think there is anything else I need for my addon?

03:57.04ShadowedI found the post where he says reported for model swapping amusing
03:57.14Shadowedbut thats mostly due to the irony

04:01.45Cairennhe's just trolling
04:01.51Guillotineyah, they all actually answered the asked question
04:02.05GuillotineI wouldn't classify " Give me a beta key." as exactly helpful
04:02.12Shadowednobody goes to the blizzard forums for answers, just to either be an asshole, a troll or to mock others!
04:02.16Cairennumm, yeah, not really
04:02.24Shadoweddepends who you're considering helpful to
04:02.50GuillotineActually, the UI Forums used to be extremely helpful
04:03.01Guillotineback when Shouryuu was our only troll
04:03.03Shadowedthey still are, i'm being sarcastic :p
04:03.03Cairennthey still can be, some times
04:03.25GuillotineI know, but now they are filled much more with posts people could find the answers to in 30 seconds if they actually looked
04:03.34Shadowedjust most people started realising that people actually help on UI & macros, so now we have every idiot who can't read trying to get help
04:03.51Cairennyou mean, like, by reading the stickies in 9 cases out of 10?
04:03.56Guillotineexactly
04:04.08Guillotineused to be it was only reading the stickies in 1/10
04:04.13ckknightpeople don't like stickies
04:04.19ckknightstickies are a section to skip over
04:04.42Shadowedwe should get slouken to start banning people who don't read the stickies
04:04.53Shadowedi'm pretty sure stupidity is in that agreement somewhere
04:05.10TainYou think people are bad now?  Try banning someone, even for the most legitimate of reasons.
04:07.50[Cu]WerikI'm evul
04:11.00[Cu]WerikThe thing is, forums aren't used for what they are for. At least, I think forums work like this: you ask a question, and you get X answers/solutions for your problems. But people are using forums for chit chatting and it drives me crazy
04:11.47Cairennagreed, to a point
04:12.01Cairenna "chit chat" forum for just that is fine

04:12.06cladhaireforums and mailing lists are both for asynchronous communication between a community.

04:13.57Cairennsome of our best threads have been completely o/t

04:14.08Cairennbut yeah
04:14.08TainIt's partially what it is there for.

04:14.31[Cu]Werikwouldnt:P
04:14.36[Cu]Werikor werent
04:15.10cladhaire[Cu]Werik: Thats unrealistic.. chit chat is valid, and where lots of things come up to improve a community.. I am available 16 hours a day via forums and email, and about 2 hours a day via live communication.  In your rules, I shouldn't be able to participate in the community beyond my two hours.
04:15.17cladhaire*shrug*
04:15.32cladhairei get the point, but there's a difference
04:15.58TainI'm afraid you will have to submit your point in triplicate to the proper channels, clad.
04:16.01[Cu]WerikSometimes, 2 hours are more than 16:)
04:16.15cladhaire...
04:16.19[Cu]WerikBut I can see your point
04:16.33cladhaireif we're talking a support forum, yes.
04:16.35cladhairebut we're not.
04:16.35Cairennthe problem is, as said, asynchronous communication
04:16.46cladhaireyep.
04:17.21[Cu]WerikThe biggest problem is that they are open for everyone:P
04:17.26Cairenna community that is made up of people world wide means that when one person wants to talk to another, they may be on completely different time schedules, so the only way to do so is via email or forums
04:17.46cladhaireand if you use email, onlyt wo peopel are involved in the conversation, which hurts the community
04:18.02Cairennyup
04:18.03cladhaireso sorting through the noise, as frustrating as it is, is better for the community without a doubt.
04:18.27Cairenna lot of it is just a difference in outlook though
04:18.41Cairennsome people view forums as, as you say, support and nothing more
04:18.49Cairennothers view them as a ways of creating a community
04:19.16zenzelezzwhat a forum is for is entierly up to the administrator of said forum, whatever anyone else might think
04:19.21cladhaireif that role is clearly defined, the community can regulate it, unfortunately its the "Catch all" forums with no clear purpose that cause the problem.
04:19.44cladhairezenzelezz: that's great, but the administration is then required to moderate or enforce that ideal.  We dont have that, its a community run joint, with no levels of moderation
04:19.54cladhaireand to be frank, while its frustrating, the community does a damn good job
04:19.56GuillotineI think a mixture. Our OT threads are great (and often quite entertaining), but there becomes a point when its too much. When a random person comes in and posts "Hey discord author, what did u have for dinner?", its annoying.

04:21.48cladhairelets go back to the intent, which we can't decide or guess
04:21.48[Cu]Werikright :)
04:21.57cladhaireIts the UI and Macros forum
04:22.08cladhaireif it weren't for slouken it would be a cesspool of /suggest posts.
04:22.18cladhairebut he makes it clear what belongs and what doesn't.
04:22.21cladhaireand thats the best we have

04:22.37cladhairewe havemoderated "technical" threads, which he keeps clean (which is a tough job) and he lets the rest go
04:22.52cladhairegiven its not his job, its pretty impressive.
04:23.02Shadowedslouken's amazing in general
04:23.03[Cu]WerikThe problem is he has to moderate it:)
04:23.36cladhaireso, someone write a crawler for the forum that lets the tehcnical users rate posts, a meta forum
04:23.48cladhairethen we have all the news that's relevant, without the nouse.
04:23.53Guillotinethat would be pretty cool
04:23.55cladhaireand those brave souls can post directly in the forums
04:23.57cladhaire*shrug*
04:23.59[Cu]WerikYeah, like we are trying to do it on curse?
04:24.08cladhairei have no idea what you guys are trying to do
04:24.10[Cu]Werikmy warhammer news got downrated in 20 seconds by wow fans;)

04:24.21cladhaireand no, that's not what i'm talking about.
04:24.32[Cu]WerikI can see it will have a future
04:24.35cladhairecurse isn't.. the most technical audience and I wouldn't put something like that on the frontline of a website.
04:24.43cladhaireit doesn't belong there.
04:24.48[Cu]Werik7.5 million crazy wow addict clicking minus on everything but wow stuff
04:25.07cladhaireyeah, thats why it doesn't work
04:25.10cladhairebut thats' not what i proposed.
04:25.14cladhairemake a small simple tool to fill a need
04:25.19cladhairenot one mega portal that does them all
04:25.21cladhaireBSD not Windows =)
04:25.22GuillotineI think what we need is something that hooks into the WoW forum and lets you rate it
04:25.26cladhairesubtle distinctino
04:25.32cladhaireGuillotine: simple firefox plugin
04:25.34cladhaireactually
04:25.41TainIf it's a "rating" system people just rate up what someone else rated up.
04:25.44TainOr down.
04:25.44GuillotineI know, I'd write it, but we'd need a server to host ratings on
04:25.47Shadowedwhat's Firefox?
04:25.55cladhaireGuillotine: i can provide webspace,
04:26.08cladhairei just dont like needless bitching about "woe is us.. teh forums are teh suck"
04:26.10TainIt ends up with a tiny amount of people forming mass opinions
04:26.15ShadowedTain: Well, hopfully you only give it to the people that aren't going to "hive mind" a thread
04:26.15cladhairebut then again, i'm just a 2 hour a day member of the community =)
04:26.22cladhaireTain: I'm not talking about Diff
04:26.23cladhaireDigg
04:26.26Neuro_Medivhpls tell me someone banned Serk
04:26.29cladhaireDigg is the devil =)
04:26.30Guillotinecladhaire: alright, I'll get started and see what I can do :) I've only written 2 extensions, so I'm not the greatest yet
04:26.36TainMight as well just tell them what to think too then, Shadowed
04:26.43cladhairethere's got to be one to model off of, TBH
04:26.45cladhairelooka t WorkSafe
04:26.46Shadowedone step at a time :p
04:26.52cladhaireit lets you flag things as NSFW
04:26.59cladhaireand warns you if you go to a bad post.
04:27.08cladhaireat worst, lets do the same with "ZOMG TROLL" posts =)
04:27.16cladhaireand we all take a blood pact to let the threads die.
04:27.23Guillotinecan even put a little rating number in the little place the blizzard icon goes
04:27.32cladhairecause TBh, if Cogwheel and Mald didn't post on the forums, they'd all die =)
04:27.42cladhairethe have a leather satchel on their hips labelled "Troll Food"
04:27.44[Cu]WerikThese things just dont work imho:)
04:27.46cladhaireI know, because I have one too
04:27.55cladhaireWerik: Well what else do you prpopse?
04:28.06cladhairebitching about it does nothing but make this channel less productive imo =)
04:28.22cladhaire<-- bored, sorry
04:28.24[Cu]WerikNothing, you just can't de anything against it other than limiting the access
04:28.35GuillotineThere is only one fail-safe solution to eliminating trolls from the forums. Eliminate the forums
04:28.48Cairennindeed
04:28.59cladhairethen whats the point =)
04:29.10Guillotinewe can always make it better :)
04:29.12Cairennand the benefits to community outweigh that, so we're back where we started
04:29.15GuillotineI'm just saying it won't be completely fixed
04:29.23ShadowedMake slouken post on wowinterface!
04:29.34Cairennbeen trying to ;)
04:29.36cladhairethats why we have moderated communities like WoWI, etc. that let us control whats done.
04:29.42Shadowedtry harder!
04:29.47cladhairewhere we control thread lengths, and who can post, etc.
04:30.51[Cu]WerikThat can work. I can't see any other way to keep it purely technical. But it's hard to do it without enough 'trustworthy' people :)
04:31.30cladhairein short, there's nothing better than what we're doing.. so we're not doing that bad imo
04:31.55[Cu]WerikYou can put it that way ;)
04:34.35Neuro_Medivhyou hunters, if you attempt to /cast Call Pet and you already have a pet, what happens?

04:45.37Cidepics or it didn't happen
04:45.39Cideoh.. nvm

04:46.00Cidebought a new domain last night
04:46.03cladhairek
04:46.15Cidedns updated to our server like 3 hours after that
04:46.30[Cu]Werikiad.cache.scbih

04:46.32Cideworked just fine, and now ~5 hours ago, it redirects back to the domain registrar again
04:46.39Cidewtf.
04:46.51cladhaireweird.. new registrar.. or one you're familiar with?
04:47.15Cidenew one, but it works fine for two others so I dunno
04:47.27Cidehopefully it updates again but it's weird
04:47.59cladhairewe had an issue with a domain migration where URL forwarding was active on the account, and it inserted 7 squatting ad hosts in the rotation with us.. it was ugly

04:49.55Corrodiasthis means i must book it to sen'jin and return the mail first. bleh.

04:52.52Guillotinecladhaire: since when?
04:52.57cladhairesince always
04:53.00cladhairesince the day it came out
04:53.02Cideyep
04:53.10cladhaireyou cannot be in a guild, be guild leader, cannot be logged in and cannot have anything in the mailbox.
04:53.18cladhaireit forces you to delete them
04:53.20cladhaireor do somethign with them
04:53.36[Cu]Werikyou can be in guild
04:53.42[Cu]Werikbut you will be removed
04:53.44Guillotinewhat if the mail is on its way? my gf lost 6 mooncloth b/c they were sent to her while she was transferring

04:54.06cladhairefor why.. i still don't know =)
04:54.07Guillotineright
04:54.11[Cu]WerikBut indeed, you cant have anything in the mailbox.
04:54.13Guillotinebut would they jsut dissapear?
04:54.23Cidewell, it does say that you can't have mail in transaction
04:54.37[Cu]WerikYou can't have mails on the way to your characters either
04:54.41Cidewhich includes the 1h delay according to them iirc
04:54.50cladhairethen Guillotine is a LIAR!

04:55.08Guillotineits true
04:55.09CideI haven't tried it so I dunno if it works correctly though :P
04:55.19Guillotinewell spend 25$ to try
04:55.26CideGOOD IDEA!
04:55.50[Cu]Werikoh dear, 1/25th of a new geforece
04:56.00[Cu]Werikgeforce:P
04:58.15Neuro_Medivhso the p3 comes out next week?
04:58.58TainThe 17th
04:59.25TainOf course if you're not camping out in front of a store right now you probably won't get one. :)
04:59.34Neuro_MedivhI have no intention of getting one
04:59.50Neuro_MedivhI have an Xbox I never play (regular xbox, not 360
04:59.53Neuro_Medivh)
05:00.03[Cu]WerikWhy would anyone buy P3? No offense, I'm just asking. I can hear 3/4 amazing games for x360 a day, nothing for p3.
05:00.12cladhairewe had people lining up 7 days ago
05:00.31MentalPower[Cu]Werik: its PS2 vs XboX, only inverted
05:00.37TainThat's because the 360 has been out for a while already.
05:00.48TainThe library builds over time.
05:01.00[Cu]WerikIs P3 better than x360?
05:01.10TainThe funny thing is I've actually bought 3 PS2 games in the last 2 months.
05:01.12[Cu]WerikTechnologically? Is it more advanced?
05:01.22grimman|z0r/wave
05:01.27TainDepends on who you ask.
05:01.38[Cu]WerikAnyone. I'm not familiar with consoles
05:01.46TainThe hardware is different so it's difficult to judge apples to apples.
05:02.07[Cu]WerikAll I know is I want to play Gears of War;P and it's on x360
05:02.17Neuro_Medivhthe games are all the same these days... just prettier looking First-Person shooters
05:02.28Neuro_MedivhI want Fallout 3 (but not by Bethesda)
05:02.40TainOf course Sony has been going out of their way in the last year or so to make themselves out to be the supreme dicks.
05:02.59Neuro_Medivhhttp://www.threebrain.com/weeeeee.shtml
05:03.05[Cu]WerikThey will be obsolate compared to pc's in a year
05:03.09MentalPower[Cu]Werik: yes its more advanced (BluRay vs. DVD, CellChip vs PowerPC, etc)
05:03.16cladhaireMXC is the best TV that exists.
05:03.22TainThe hardware doesn't matter.
05:03.31TainIt's the games that are important.
05:03.33[Cu]WerikThere is Blueray for x360 imho. I saw Bill talking about it:)
05:03.35MentalPowerI *know* it doesn;t matter
05:03.40MentalPowernop
05:03.44MentalPowerHD-DVD
05:03.52MentalPowerthe *other* format
05:03.57TainI just bought 3 games for the PS2 which has been out for 5 years now.
05:04.18Neuro_Medivhthat's the real thing.. they really are just now pushing the limits of the PS2/Xbox
05:04.20[Cu]Werikhm
05:04.38[Cu]WerikWell, there are quad core cpus for pc already
05:04.52Neuro_MedivhYeah, I game on my PC
05:05.01TainIt's never a straight comparison though.
05:05.14[Cu]WerikConsoles always start hard
05:05.17Neuro_MedivhThere are certain games that are much more fun on a console though
05:05.20[Cu]WerikBut they always fall back
05:05.41Neuro_MedivhI like Tony Hawk on xbox, but RPGs I prefer pc
05:05.44MentalPowerfunny fact, all consoles use IBM (PowerPC derivative) chips, and all PC's (yes I'm generalizing) use Intel/AMD (x86) chips
05:06.04MentalPowers/all consoles/all *new* consoles/
05:06.36MentalPowerXbox moved from Intel -> IBM, and Apple moved from IBM -> Intel
05:06.50[Cu]WerikApple did the right thing;)
05:07.00MentalPoweri agree
05:07.09ckknightXbox did the right thing.
05:07.29[Cu]WerikI don't know about xbox, I have no base for comparison
05:07.29ckknight:-P
05:07.35[Cu]WerikBut Apple did well:)
05:07.39ckknightyea, I agree
05:07.44ckknightI think both moves were very smart.
05:07.48TainI actually think MS did the right thing with the Xbox.
05:08.14TainThey've positioned it to be more than just a pc in a box, which is more or less what the Xbox was.
05:08.54TainI think it was good to make the real separation.
05:09.11[Cu]WerikI'm looking forward those laptops with vista media editions which wont need to boot up the OS to play dvds:)
05:10.22Neuro_MedivhIt'll take a few months before I'll consider switching to Vista
05:10.25cladhaireor you could have a mac where booting up takes 15 seconds =), and use your media remote =)
05:10.34TainIt will be more than a few months for me.
05:10.36[Cu]Werikyea
05:10.41Neuro_MedivhI remember when my roommate switched from 98 to Window ME
05:10.49TainI won't install Vista until a game comes out that is DX10 only that I really want to play.
05:11.00[Cu]WerikAnd spend the rest 30 seconds waiting for the mediaplayer to start
05:11.00[Cu]Werik:)
05:11.16TainWindows ME was a special case of suckitude though.
05:11.21Neuro_MedivhI find it funny that Windows made XP better than they meant to
05:12.04[Cu]WerikNah, the good thing is in this media edition, lets say you have your work pc, and the family just puts in a dvd and can use it as a complete media station without starting the OS and fooling around on on the pc
05:12.37cladhaireyeah, the media center stuff is pretty neat
05:12.47[Cu]WerikYou can even lock it with password and they can still watch movies
05:12.49[Cu]Werikits cool
05:13.50[Cu]WerikSplinter Cell Double Agent supports dx10
05:14.12MentalPowersupports ~= requires
05:14.30TainI *despise* the Aero interface.

05:15.42SP|Sorrenwhats wrong with aero, i rather liked it for the short time i goofed off with vista
05:16.24TainThe best thing the UI can do is get out of my way.
05:16.26[Cu]WerikI don't know. If you ask me Vista will be a big hit
05:16.38cladhairefor a small number of people.
05:16.42[Cu]WerikIf not at start, later
05:16.43cladhairethat's the concern i have
05:16.45TainOf course it will, people have no choice.
05:17.15TainIt will be a big hit as MS pushes it down peoples throats and discontinue support for XP.  It's really the corporate level that drives it.
05:17.34[Cu]WerikBut you can't say it's not better than XP
05:17.46TainThere are things that are much better than XP.
05:17.50[Cu]WerikWithout pushing things you would sit still for ages
05:18.08TainAnd there are things, like the pervasive DRM, that are bad for everyone.
05:18.53[Cu]WerikWe will see how it works out
05:18.53*** join/#wowi-lounge ckknight_ (n=ckknight@rrcs-74-62-251-185.west.biz.rr.com)
05:19.02TainThen there are things in the middle.  The Aero UI will certainly appeal to many, I personally think it's a step in the wrong direction to go so graphically intensive with just the UI.
05:19.04[Cu]WerikDidn't really notice it in the RC versions
05:19.20[Cu]WerikTain, its not intensive
05:19.39TainYou don't have to wait to see how it works out, it's a foregone conclusion.  Poeple will use Vista, XP will die out.  That's just a matter of time.
05:19.47[Cu]WerikIt has basically no impact on performance
05:19.56TainThat is not true.
05:19.59[Cu]WerikANd you can turn it off
05:20.02cladhaireif your machine can support it.
05:20.07cladhairewhich invalidates the statement =)
05:20.19[Cu]WerikA geforce 6600 can run it without any problems
05:20.44XLVIIMy school, I work as an IT Technician, just bought all hp Vista-compatible machines.

05:21.04TainThere are other things that I'm willing to chalk up to personal perference as long as I can change.
05:21.08XLVIIThey run Vista, with Aero, without a hassle.
05:21.09cladhairethe average dsktop pc.. which is what we're talking about has nowhere near a 6600
05:21.24TainLike the Start - Run box being a search box by default, that drove me absolutely mad.
05:21.26MentalPowerdoesn't Aero run pretty much only on the GPU?
05:21.49[Cu]Werikit does
05:22.01[Cu]Werikwell, its a directx application
05:23.12[Cu]WerikAnd as I said, you can turn it off:)
05:24.15XLVIII can't even remember when I last used a poper 'Appearance
05:24.19ckknighthttp://www.kluc.com/zoo_content/Sexual%20Consent%20Long%20Form.pdf
05:24.27[Cu]WerikActually, vista turns it on and off dynamically. I was rendering some movie and playing wow in windowed mode and I think It turned Aero off automatically
05:24.49XLVIIproper 'Appearance', I've always seemed to use Windows Classic Style
05:25.19[Cu]Werikif you run a game in windowed mode, but in full screen window, it turns aero off as well

06:06.31purlmethinks devtools is Iriel's DevTools, a highly useful set of debugging tools for developers on WoW. Found at   http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=3999  Why isn't it in the default client yet?

06:09.07Mike-N-GoWell, the raidtarget remains on the corpse.
06:10.26Kasothats odd, i alway though it was cleared when a mob died

06:23.55CairennI think my follow up is even better, to be honest :p
06:24.03ShadowedWhy do they have a policy to only send out the key 3 times anyway

06:24.12Cairenn2 times, they're breaking it
06:24.25Shadowedwait, they only send it out once, you got them to send it out twice and a third time?
06:24.31Cairennyes
06:24.36Cairenntrying to fix it
06:24.54Cairennwhich is why some people have gotten 2 keys, and will likely end up with a third
06:25.02Cairennthey generate new keys each time
06:25.08Shadowedah
06:25.21Cairennwhich is why they don't like doing it
06:25.41Shadowedah
06:26.07iamhefhas anyone ever brought up the fact that maybe these people just entered their e-mail address incorrectly?
06:26.20Cairennthey can check them themselves, on our site
06:26.22Shadowedi'm 100% sure my email is correct
06:26.26Cairenngo hit the button again

06:30.21iamhefhas anyone seen FrameXML randomly have problems with loading lua files?
06:30.42iamheflike i've had a few instances where FrameXML gives "Error Loading xxx" (no other clues)
06:30.58iamhefand i can completely empty the file out and it will still have errors
06:31.09Esamynn|raidingiamhef: you mean an error in the FrameXML.log file?

09:42.34cncfanaticsSetBindingClick on the PLAYER_LOGIN would do the thing you want, but then u'll have to manage bindings urself, they won't appear in the keybinding section from blizz
09:42.54nevcairieland, if i want them to appear there?
09:42.58cncfanaticsno idea :)
09:46.17nevcairielbasicly every addon which has some form of key-toggle needs that
09:46.23nevcairielthere must be a way :)
09:52.13cncfanaticsA keytoggle shldnt be suposed to run securestuff -.-

14:03.37grimman|z0r"my own" would be pushing it a bit though. ;)

14:05.14Industriali do anchor it to the unitframes

14:08.48Industrialno how could i make my interface better
14:08.56Industrial< grimman|z0r> That's... less than beautiful. :P
14:09.10grimman|z0rOh well, obviously you need to do something about the minimap.
14:09.45grimman|z0rYou can square it pretty damn easy and remove the border. Instant pornification. ;D
14:10.09Industrialyeah but I dont like the buttons to still be moving around in a circle
14:10.26Industriali can move the default ones
14:11.23grimman|z0rI hide most buttons, as long as they have a slash command... only leaves a few ones that can be replicated through FuBar addons or simply moved with DFM.
14:12.19Industrialas you see im hiding most of the default buttons
14:12.23grimman|z0rsimpleMinimap makes the buttons move in a square, but they're still attached to a "track" around the minimap itself.
14:12.28Industrialjust not the tracking frame and the battleground timer
14:12.33Industriali have mousewheel zooming etc
14:12.41grimman|z0rZooming ftl. ;P
14:13.07Industrialits handy when you have tradking in a crowded area

14:13.36grimman|z0rUp until I got simpleMinimap I had "disabled" zooming and only allowed pings via right click. :)
14:14.30Industrialim playing with the idea of removing the button bar background
14:14.35Industrialand creating a new one
14:14.45Industrialthe height of the buttons, across the bottom of my screen
14:14.49Industrialbut.. everyone has that :
14:15.09grimman|z0rHm?

14:42.10Industrialyou can also use a cooldown bar timer addon

14:45.01hasteIt doesn't work with all actionbars tho', as I don't want to scan the spellbook everytime someone smashes a button
14:45.15hasteor a new cooldown is triggered
14:45.45grimman|z0rIs that what the other bar mods to anyway?
14:46.06hasteother cooldown mods at least
14:46.24hasteso if it doesn't work for you, either use another cooldown add on, or switch to one of the supported actionbars :)

19:02.51grimman|herez0rIf you get the same crap I get that kinda concludes it.
19:03.27grimman|herez0rI just found it odd that such a large amount of the files I downloaded looked like that. Something like 50% of them it turns out.
19:04.27grimman|herez0rAh well... in the end I got to see the other 50% of the files, my codecs are up to date AND optimized for my CPU and I got to try a ton of different media players. ;D

19:22.14Amadeohaste: Yeah but you don't count!
19:22.23haste:-(
19:22.27AmadeoYou only PvP twice a year!
19:22.31teomyr:D
19:22.35hastewith my shaman, I don't even touch PvP :D
19:22.48hasteI haven't logged on my shaman for the last month either so :p
19:22.49AmadeoYou know I love you though
19:23.22ShadowedAmadeo: no, but if it's a pvp question i can probably answer it!
19:23.29Amadeolol
19:23.44AmadeoI just don't know what Enhancement Shaman get for stats when leveling up
19:23.47Amadeofor PvP
19:24.00AmadeoI have Strength and Stamina now, but man, I can heal like twice and I'm out of mana :P
19:24.18Shadowedbalance it all :p
19:24.22Amadeoeww, balance

19:25.33Neuro_MedivhAmadeo, basically until 40 you're stuck getting rogue gear, and at 40 you wanna get all the SM chain
19:25.43Neuro_Medivhthen you're kinda screwed till 60s
19:26.14Neuro_Medivhcause all the chain from 40-60 is caster shaman or hunter oriented
19:26.38AmadeoI want agility over strength?
19:26.48Neuro_MedivhNo
19:27.02Neuro_Medivhyou get no AP from agility
19:27.06Amadeook
19:27.23AmadeoI'm still 30!
19:27.41Neuro_Medivhyou'll wanna start collecting the SM chain gear around 38
19:28.24Neuro_Medivhand if you can get it, the Ravager axe
19:28.38Amadeothat's from Herod right?
19:28.41Neuro_Medivhyes
19:28.47Neuro_MedivhHerod is your friend
19:28.51Neuro_Medivhhe drops 4 items you want
19:29.02Amadeohehe
19:29.03teomyryes :D
19:29.39Amadeohe's a lot of fun so far though
19:29.40Neuro_MedivhAlso, you can kill him with just shaman, at lvl 40, if you want
19:29.45Amadeoprobably more fun than most classes I've played before
19:29.53Neuro_MedivhShaman are great fun
19:29.57Amadeoif Windfury procs, I can kill a caster in almost one shot
19:29.59teomyrherod can be solo'd quite easily
19:30.01Amadeo(at 30)
19:30.15Neuro_MedivhAt 40, Teomyr?
19:30.25teomyrno xD
19:30.27Neuro_MedivhAmadeo, you have Corpsemaker right?
19:30.32Amadeono, I have...
19:30.39AmadeoBurning War Axe, lol
19:30.44AmadeoI haven't instanced yet
19:30.45teomyri solo'd him at 49 to get my leggings :D
19:31.06Neuro_Medivhahh... at 40, me and 2 shaman farmed him about 8 times
19:31.24Neuro_Medivhthe good thing is, with all his shaman drops, nothing ever got wasted
19:31.54teomyryup
19:32.19teomyrCorpsemaker, Ravager, Executioner's Cleaver are very nice shaman weapons imo
19:32.43Neuro_Medivhbtw, Amadeo, if you're mainly in it for pvp, 30-39 is the range where shaman really excel
19:32.55teomyragreed
19:33.19AmadeoI notice that 30 was a big level
19:33.22AmadeoI got great stuff
19:33.23Neuro_Medivhyes it is
19:33.42Amadeoon another note
19:33.53AmadeoI've been using this macro on my Warlock, but it doesn't seem to retarget the enemy
19:33.58Amadeo/script if (UnitCreatureFamily("pet") == "Felhunter") then TargetUnit("player");CastPetAction(4);TargetLastEnemy();end
19:34.08ScytheBlade1Nope
19:34.18ScytheBlade1Macros cannot target or cast spells anymore
19:34.25ScytheBlade1At least with /script anyways
19:34.33Amadeoeven in 1.12?
19:34.50ScytheBlade1.. oh ;)
19:34.57Amadeohehe
19:35.08Neuro_MedivhI think it's targetlasttarget
19:35.41Amadeolet me try that
19:35.52Neuro_Medivhyou can still make a macro like that in 2.0, btw
19:36.20Neuro_Medivh./cast [pet:Felhunter,target=player] <Pet action 4, whatever it's called>
19:36.28ScytheBlade1yup

19:39.52Thunder_Childas many chars to 20...i think
19:40.42Neuro_MedivhI did the pvp contest
19:40.47teomyra lvl 19 warsong honor contest, and two leveling contest (most chars to lvl 20, first to 50)
19:41.02Neuro_Medivhthe lvl 19 contest was FUN, wish they'd do somehting like that again
19:41.10*** join/#wowi-lounge fathom (n=fathom@ip70-189-112-158.ok.ok.cox.net)
19:41.26Neuro_Medivhthe only real problem was the shaman/pally imbalance
19:41.39Neuro_Medivhat lvl 19, in WSG, Blessing of Freedom is HUGE
19:42.27teomyrpurge :>
19:42.44Neuro_Medivhis a reaction, not an action
19:42.59Neuro_Medivhwithout frost shock to back it up, it's ineffective
19:43.21Neuro_Medivhsure, you purge the BoF, but they're still free of whatever was snaring them
19:43.41teomyrcorrect :(
19:43.53Neuro_MedivhThe standard alliance tactic was pally-rogue flag team
19:44.20Neuro_Medivhrogue grabs flag, pally BoFs, rogue sprints
19:44.25AmadeoI imagine TBC Arenas will be pointless without a Paladin in group
19:46.08Neuro_MedivhI'd still love to see a server that was dedicated to 1-19.  Maybe wipe it every month or so.
19:46.32nevcairielheh
19:46.50Neuro_MedivhThe only real drawback is that at 1-19, without serious twinking, cloth classes can't compete
19:47.54teomyryes
19:48.01Shadowed1-19 is silly for Bg's
19:48.18teomyrwhen i'm in wsg with one of my twinks, there are always a few pimped up twinks in it
19:48.19thranything sub 40-49 is silly imho since alot of the 31pt talents make up the core of some classes.
19:48.38Neuro_Medivh40-49 is IMHO one of the best brackets
19:48.53thrbut 50-59 is how it should be on 60 - balance wise.
19:49.00Shadowed20-29 is pretty fun actually
19:49.12thri'm in the 20-29 with my troll warrior now.. atleast for a day before i level on.
19:49.18Shadowedbut at least classes start to develope at 20-29
19:49.21Neuro_Medivh20-29, at least in WSG, is all about druids
19:49.26AmadeoI think 70 PvP will be fun if the PvP sets are viable enough to compete with PvE sets
19:49.42thrand it's fun ... but i still lack to much to of my skills to do anything vs. some classes as a warrior
19:49.45thr(mostly intercept ;<)
19:50.01Neuro_Medivhwhich side, horde or ally?
19:50.03thrand a mage in pvp without iceblock or blastwave... nah, not going to happen.
19:50.05thrNeuro_Medivh: horde.
19:50.26Neuro_Medivhhorde side twinking has huge advantages over ally side
19:50.31thrwell i'm not twinked
19:50.35thrbut i got good enough gear anyways

19:52.45nevcairielIndustrial: you trying to do the ahnqiraj quest?
19:52.57thrIndustrial is it the 2nd or 3rd quest in the chain?
19:53.00Industrial1
19:53.17thrbut...
19:53.23thrif you are on the first part.
19:53.29thrthen read this: "Travel to the continent of Teldrassil and find Malfurion's agent somewhere outside the walls of Darnassus."
19:53.45thryou're not supposed to go moonglade
19:53.49nevcairielif you just completed the inital chain, you need to go to the temple to actually start the green questline
19:54.32thrman i love my battlegroup, alot more ally then horde so always "< 1 minute" wait time :)
19:54.33Industriali havent completed anything
19:54.47thrIndustrial: No, exactly. So you should go to Teldrassil, NOT moonglade. Read the quest.
19:55.00Industrialthr: i read it kthx 1 time is enough
19:55.27Industrialthe site does not say that the quest starts there. the quest text tells you you need to go there
19:55.32nevcairielthat quest is only available if you initially started the quest in silithus and handed in the head of broodlord lashlayer
19:55.33Industrialits not pre-quest
19:55.37Industrialits a quest objective
19:55.40Industriali need the quest first
19:55.43Industrial.
19:56.00Industrialnevcairiel: thank you how do i do thaT? :P
19:56.19nevcairielgo to silithus, start the quest, goto BWL, slay the boordlord, and ninja the head
19:56.27Industrialoh, im level 54 :|
19:57.01nevcairielthat quest is part of the quest-line to open Ahn'Qiraj
19:57.14nevcairielnot worth it, anyway
19:58.11Industrialyeah i was just iterating though the quests around ST, never really pay attention to the storylines
19:58.11Industrialguess its my own fault :E

21:40.55loonatikis it possible to run a macro from my script
21:41.41Neuro_Medivhcurrently yes, in 2.0 no
21:41.47loonatikwhich is BC right?
21:41.54Neuro_Medivhyes
21:42.10loonatikthats fine for now, im on the wiki site, what would I look for to learn how to do that
21:42.12Neuro_Medivhbut it'll be added to the live game before BC, iirc
21:42.26Neuro_MedivhUseAction(#)
21:42.30loonatikthanks
21:42.33Neuro_Medivhyour macro needs to be on the actionbar somewhere
21:42.49loonatikok
21:42.55Neuro_MedivhI recommend 109-120, those are the least used
21:43.38loonatikthanks
21:44.03loonatikwhy are they removing it
21:44.46Neuro_Medivhabuse
21:45.03Neuro_Medivhtoo many people using smart macros to play the game
21:45.16Neuro_Medivhpress one button, the macro decides everything for them
21:45.31loonatikwhats wrong with that? =)
21:45.41Neuro_MedivhThey don't want it
21:45.46loonatikbleh
21:45.52Neuro_Medivhmakes programming encounters very hard
21:46.25Neuro_MedivhFor example, what point giving a boss an AE curse, if they know in 2 seconds 6 decursers will spam their decursive hotkey and clean everyone
21:47.32Neuro_Medivhit's like, why not let people play in god mode?
21:47.39loonatikso they think making you have to do it manually makes the game more fun?
21:47.39Neuro_Medivhcause they'll get bored
21:47.40loonatiklol
21:47.51Neuro_Medivhit does, in the long run
21:48.08loonatikthats teh same mentality that levels are content
21:48.22Neuro_MedivhNo, you're looking at the problem incorrectly is all
21:48.36Neuro_MedivhAutomation is never a proper solution
21:48.44Neuro_Medivhthe proper solution is to make it more fun to do manually
21:49.21loonatikdoesnt sound like they are too worried about that
21:49.48Neuro_Medivhmany of their design decisions are based on the existance of addons like decursive
21:50.04Neuro_Medivhthey hit EVERYONE, because it's the only way to overcome decursive
21:50.06Esamynnloonatik: they far perfer what people are calling wack-a-mole, to complete automation with button spamming
21:50.27Endwhat's the point of aoe curses anyways?  that's hardly fun, with a smart button or not...
21:50.36Neuro_MedivhThat's the point
21:50.46Endand btw
21:50.54Neuro_Medivhwith automation, you have to either remove the automation, or overload it
21:51.05Neuro_Medivhthey tried overloading, and it's boring
21:51.08Endafaik, bosses in MC had aoe curses before decursive existed
21:51.09loonatiki just dont see why they care
21:51.15loonatikif someone wants to use a script to do it
21:51.20loonatiklet em
21:51.25loonatikif someone thinks its more fun to not use a script
21:51.26Neuro_MedivhPeople have been scripting since beta
21:51.27loonatikthats fine too
21:51.50Neuro_Medivhso should they add a God Mode?
21:52.01Neuro_Medivhtype /godmode and you can't die to mobs
21:52.01loonatikhow can you compare decursive to god mode?
21:52.07Neuro_MedivhYes
21:52.15Neuro_MedivhBecause they do the same thing
21:52.21loonatikno, you can still die
21:52.21Neuro_MedivhI'm simply pushing it to the extreme limit
21:52.24loonatikwithout descursive
21:52.29MikmaCairenn: can we have the new FrameXML + others in wdn.wowinterface.com? :)
21:52.31loonatikyea, REALLY extreme
21:52.36loonatikbeyond being relevant
21:52.36AmadeoI think Decursive is fine now that they have stuff like Unstable Affliction
21:52.38Neuro_MedivhThat's how you check things
21:52.43EndMikma: that's beladona's thing
21:52.50EsamynnMikma: it's not Cairenn who does that, it Beladona
21:52.52Cairennwhat End said
21:52.55Neuro_MedivhYour argument doesn't hold up at the extreme ends
21:53.04Neuro_Medivhbecause otherwise, god mode should be allowed
21:53.11Merynot so far off, you skip the developed content because you are more powerful than intended
21:53.17Neuro_Medivhif YOU wanna play in non-god mode, that's fine
21:53.18MikmaCairenn: well you can handle it? you're tha BOFH/Admin etc :D
21:53.27loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  then no conversation can ever be talked about
21:53.32loonatikbecause im sure you can come up with some extreme
21:53.33loonatikthat would make it pointless
21:53.34CairennMikma: nope, Bela handles that exclusively
21:53.40Neuro_MedivhNo, you have to look at your argument
21:53.48MikmaCairenn: i meant, "can you give him an order to do it"
21:53.49Neuro_Medivhyours was that personal fun trumps other concerns
21:53.51loonatikNeuro_Medivh: maybe YOU dont like decursive
21:53.57Cairennno, but I can *request* it
21:54.01MikmaCairenn: i bet you talk with him more often than i do :D
21:54.03Neuro_MedivhGive me a reason why Godmode isn't good
21:54.07loonatikbut you cant compare decursive to god mode
21:54.09Neuro_Medivhsure I can
21:54.20MikmaCairenn: be a boss! order it ;)
21:54.22Neuro_MedivhGive me a compelling reason why godmode shouldn't be allowed as a personal choice
21:54.27loonatikNeuro_Medivh: then by the same way of thinking you shouldnt be able to heal
21:54.28CairennMikma: not my style
21:54.30loonatikbecause healing helps you not die
21:54.35loonatikso healers are like god mode
21:54.43Merybut everybody can heal (with the standart ui)
21:54.45loonatikthats how ridiculous your argument is
21:54.55Neuro_MedivhNo, my argument is that there is a line
21:54.56MikmaCairenn: well, purr at him/her/something ;)
21:55.09Kaligaralot of encounters where maded with decursive in mind
21:55.12loonatikand why does decursive step over some line
21:55.16Kaligarlook at chromag
21:55.21Merybecause the spell says your target
21:55.37Neuro_MedivhKaligar, I agree, and it's a poor design
21:55.38Meryand that implies the spell is designed to have you chose your target
21:55.43Kaligarthey pretty much killed hunter traking with the changes
21:55.53Neuro_Medivhloonatik, the designers decided where the line was
21:56.08loonatikgood for them
21:56.13Kaligarnow all we have is a blip for when a certain unit is on the sreen and no info about it at all
21:56.17Neuro_Medivhand the line was combat variables vs static variables
21:56.19loonatikthey need to quit meddling, thats what kills most mmogs
21:56.30Neuro_Medivhso who decides where the line is then?
21:56.36Neuro_Medivhand no, it's not
21:56.37Kaligari can see the need to get rid of decursive though
21:56.43Neuro_Medivhwhen the designers give up is when mmogs die
21:56.57Kaligarits stupid having to work bosses around it
21:56.59loonatikNeuro_Medivh: just because the designers think decursive is bad doesnt mean i cant disagree and talk about it
21:57.26Esamynnloonatik: no one is saying you can't but many people here agree with the designers in thiss
21:57.30Neuro_Medivhtrue.  I'm simply saying that your argument in favor of decursive (that it's more fun than not having it) is flawed
21:57.42Kaligarmy biggest peev is we have to learn all this secure crap :P
21:57.48Neuro_Medivhbecause taking that argument to it's logical conclusion allows anything that people consider "fun" like Godmode
21:57.49loonatikNeuro_Medivh: ive played almost every mmog and the single thing that destroys them is the devs changing things constantly
21:57.53EsamynnKaligar: would you perfer we didn't have it?
21:58.09Kaligarid prefer better documentation
21:58.11*** join/#wowi-lounge cncfanatics (n=cncfanat@172.151-240-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be)
21:58.13loonatikNeuro_Medivh: so what is your side then? the devs said so, so its valid? heh
21:58.15Neuro_MedivhAgain, I disagree.  Constant maintaining is what keeps a game fresh
21:58.30EsamynnKaligar: that will come, give it time
21:58.38Teomyri have mixed feelings about the removal of detox/decursive
21:58.41Neuro_MedivhMy side is, I understand where they are coming from.  As long as they design the encounters with these new limits in mind, I'm fine
21:58.43Merywell teh devs didn't changed their minds on that, it was clear since 2 years that they don't like spell automatation
21:58.55Teomyrthings may be a bit more difficult now, but with the UI changes in mind, the devs might choose to create encounters that don't need that much decursing
21:59.19loonatikNeuro_Medivh: tell me that when you have leveled up a creature handler and they totally break the class, then you level up a swordsman and they totally break that class, or you gear up for pvp then they kill it
21:59.26ScytheBlade1Or they might *not*, and you'll just have to be able to... move your mouse... 30 pixels... every 1.5 seconds...
21:59.26Endwell, it's been mentioned that fear will be less used
21:59.27ScytheBlade1..
21:59.31loonatikthey constantly do it
21:59.33loonatikand it makes the games worse
21:59.40EsamynnKaligar: also, if you have questions, you can always ask here
21:59.51EndI could see it being the same with other things like curses/etc
21:59.54loonatikive played AC, AC2, AO, AA, DNL, DDO, EVE, E&B, EQ, EQ2, Horizons, JG, Lineage, Neocron, Planeshift, PS, PE, Shadowbane, SWG, MXO, UO, WOW, WWIIOL .. and the biggest problem is the devs breaking things because they are trying to balance
22:00.06Neuro_MedivhI have 6 60s in this game, in 4 different classes, and I played nearly every combo in UO, and nearly every class in EQ
22:00.16Kaligarmy main problem is applying attirbute to the correct frames in the xml :P
22:00.20loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  if you have played UO then you know exactly what I mean
22:00.21loonatikby meddling
22:00.25loonatikthey destroyed UO
22:00.42Kaligaruo wasnt meddled with it was completely changed
22:00.42Neuro_MedivhUO is still going strong actually
22:00.51AmadeoYou guys play early EQ, pre-expansion?
22:00.55Neuro_MedivhI did
22:00.58Amadeonice
22:01.04loonatikNeuro_Medivh: uhm, how many millions of subscribers does UO have?
22:01.10loonatikhave you even played it lately btw? i have it sucks
22:01.11Kaligar0
22:01.11Neuro_Medivhit never had more than 100k
22:01.12ScytheBlade1loonatik, one question for you: should a paladin be able to spam one button in a 40v40 battleground, and without thinking, cleanse every single person near them, irregardless of what it is?
22:01.19loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  exactly
22:01.21ScytheBlade1I was against the decursive change, until I thought about th at.
22:01.24ScytheBlade1*that.
22:01.36Neuro_MedivhUO is outdated is all
22:01.43Neuro_MedivhI used to play Civ 1 ALL the time
22:01.43Kaligarthe reason wow is so successful is because of the rts's
22:01.51ScytheBlade1No one should be able to mindlessly spam *one* button and without thinking, fix 40 people's problems
22:01.52loonatikNeuro_Medivh: they destroyed UO with trammel and many other changes
22:01.53Neuro_Medivhnow, I don't, cause it's obsolete
22:02.04Kaligaruo was ridign on 90-95 games
22:02.13Neuro_MedivhPeople don't leave games because the game broke
22:02.17loonatiklol
22:02.22Neuro_Medivhthey leave because something better comes along
22:02.23loonatikuh yea they do
22:02.28Neuro_Medivhthat's all
22:02.34loonatikthey also leave because of that, but back when they did most of the changes
22:02.36loonatiknothing else was out
22:02.37loonatikuntil eq
22:02.43Neuro_MedivhEQ came out before trammel did
22:02.46AmadeoWoW is successful for more than its history, it's a very accessable and easy game with very little penalty for dying or "losing" in general
22:02.55Neuro_MedivhTrammel came out over a year later
22:03.36AmadeoEQ may not have been the hardest MMOG ever, but anyone who's ever lost a levels in death or been on a 10 hour corpse run knows that WoW is pretty accessable :)
22:03.39Neuro_Medivhand the increased subscriber base of WoW over EQ and UO is indicative of a massive culture change rather than better game design
22:03.42loonatikNeuro_Medivh: no it didnt
22:03.50Neuro_MedivhTrammel came out in Summer 2000
22:03.56Neuro_MedivhEQ came out in March 1999
22:04.13Neuro_MedivhSiege Perilous came out in Summer 1999
22:04.16loonatiki played eq in beta through launch, i was pissed off at uo because of trammel by then
22:04.41AmadeoWoW is more like the consolized MMORPG, imo, but not so much that computer users don't want to play it :P
22:04.48loonatikUltima Online: Renaissance (April 3, 2000) The world was doubled in size, as there were literally two copies of it. The worlds were called Felucca and Trammel, after the two moons in Ultima's Britannia world. The Trammel world did not allow player killing, while the Felucca world did. Felucca also adopted a darker, more foreboding look.
22:04.53loonatikhrmm
22:04.55loonatik2000
22:05.08Neuro_MedivhMay 2000
22:05.17Neuro_Medivhis when it went live
22:05.32loonatikthey still destroyed the game through the changes they made
22:05.47Neuro_MedivhThe subscriber base really hasn't lost too much actually
22:05.53AmadeoI thought the game was pretty messed up to begin with, from what I've heard (I never played)
22:05.53loonatikand they constantly changed things that broke templates/professions/ways to make money
22:05.57loonatikect
22:06.06loonatikAmadeo:  UO was awesome
22:06.06Neuro_Medivhthe thing is, without change, people get bored
22:06.14Amadeoloonatik: I'm speaking of hacks and stuff
22:06.15loonatikstill the best mmog imo
22:06.19loonatikAmadeo:  ah
22:06.23Neuro_Medivhlol, lemme guess, you loved being a PK
22:06.36loonatiki was blue mostly
22:06.38InsideHmmm..
22:06.38Inside<PROTECTED>
22:06.39loonatikand i pked the reds
22:06.40Kaligaruo sux
22:06.44Neuro_MedivhSiege Perilous was the best UO server
22:06.46loonatikwe had a tower right outside yew moongate
22:06.51loonatiknon stop canrage
22:06.51Neuro_Medivhbut UO was flawed from the beginning
22:06.54AmadeoI couldn't afford a computer when UO was out :P
22:06.59Amadeoer, when it was popular
22:07.00loonatikmy ass UO rocked
22:07.06KirkburnSee this link: http://www.mmogchart.com/Chart2.html
22:07.11InsideWhat to do, what to do.. play TBC, Write my uno mod, work on my c++ program >_o
22:07.12KirkburnNotice how UO isn't dead :P
22:07.18loonatiknow all you got is care bare central with shit like wow
22:07.23loonatikcookie cutter mmogs
22:07.42loonatikthat appeal to as many people as possible and dont offer any innovation
22:07.56loonatikand actually think levels are content
22:08.04Kaligaruo may as well be dead, look at how hard the have to keep changing stuff just to keep people playing
22:08.10ScytheBlade1loonatik, to each their own.
22:08.25loonatikScytheBlade1: most people dont even know whats possible with games like UO
22:08.31loonatikand dont know any better
22:08.38loonatikmost people werent playing mmogs before WoW
22:08.39AmadeoKirkburn: Imagine if they scaled the graph to include World of Warcraft, and how tall it would have to be :P
22:08.40Kaligarthey design it so people can run it on low end machines aka 5 years old and who has that anymore
22:08.50Neuro_MedivhUO wasn't that amazing to be honest
22:08.59Neuro_Medivhit was innovative though
22:09.04Neuro_Medivhand that counts for a lot
22:09.09Kaligaruo was fun while there was just one facet
22:09.11Neuro_Medivhsurprisingly, EQ wasn't very innovative
22:09.13KirkburnAmadeo, heh
22:09.19loonatikthey did Kirkburn
22:09.20loonatikhttp://www.mmogchart.com/Chart1.html
22:09.22Insidehttp://www.mmogchart.com/Chart1_files/Subscriptions_8846_image001.gif
22:09.22AmadeoPeople love their first MMOG, that's just how it'll always be...well, assuming the game was good enough to play
22:09.23Neuro_Medivhit simply adapted DIKUmud to a graphical environment =)
22:09.26loonatikKaligar:  yup
22:09.31loonatikthey killed it with trammel and many other changes
22:09.33AmadeoKirkburn: hahah
22:09.36Kirkburnloonatik, I think he meant keeping it at the same scale :)
22:10.20loonatikeq blew because all you did was level
22:10.21Amadeoloonatik: That's like a million people off, too!
22:10.33Neuro_MedivhAlso keep in mind that the number of people online with high speed connections today is orders of magnitude more than in 97
22:10.40loonatikyup
22:10.45AmadeoPre-SoE EQ was my favorite MMORPG, and part of that is because it was my first
22:10.56loonatikwe are probably gonna have crap wow clone mmogs for another 5-10 years
22:11.00Neuro_MedivhEQ took me a while to really get into
22:11.04loonatikwont see another good mmog for at least 5 maybe 10 years
22:11.05AmadeoIt did for me also
22:11.20AmadeoSome games have great ideas, like Vanguard
22:11.29loonatikor dark and light
22:11.31AmadeoBut Blizzard is the Microsoft of MMOG now
22:11.34loonatikbut all the ones with good ideas are run by cheap companies
22:11.37Neuro_MedivhBlizzard is smart
22:11.48Neuro_Medivhthey don't try and pioneer some weird new concept game
22:11.58AmadeoTBC comes out in January, nobody's going to play Vanguard
22:12.02Neuro_Medivhthey take a burgeoning genre and polish it
22:12.14Neuro_MedivhDune 2000 was groundbreaking, but flawed
22:12.20AmadeoYeah...if you look at WoW, it's bits from MMOGs of past
22:12.28Neuro_MedivhBlizzard took that new genre, and polished up into Warcraft I
22:13.08Neuro_MedivhDiablo, believe it or not, is based on games like Angband and Talengard
22:13.37Neuro_MedivhAngband = triumph of content over technology
22:13.41AmadeoSpeaking of Diablo, I heard Hellgate: London is finished :P
22:14.03Neuro_MedivhI wish Blizzard would have done Fallout 3
22:14.08Neuro_Medivhinstead of Bethesda
22:15.06loonatiki just want a mmog with more depth, there was SOOOOOOOOOOO much you could do, ways to make money, types of ways to play that game
22:15.13loonatikin uo
22:15.32AmadeoShadowbane tried that, didn't do to well for various reasons...I think the next MMORPG trying it is Vanguard
22:15.42loonatikshadowbane was unplayable buggy crap
22:15.53loonatikmade by a company without resources to do it right
22:15.56loonatikjust like neocron
22:16.00loonatikjust like dark and light
22:16.08AmadeoI played most of those games for less than a month
22:16.10AmadeoHated em
22:16.13loonatikso theres no way to know if shadowbane would have been good =)
22:16.18Inside>_>
22:16.28InsideHonestly, in 6 months or so I want to start working on a 2D MMO
22:16.33InsideWith content over prettiness ;)
22:16.33AmadeoShadowbane would have been good if it came out back when it was supposed to
22:16.41Neuro_Medivhthere's a problem with the Shadowbane paradigm though
22:16.42loonatikInside:  you and thousands of other people =)
22:16.50InsideYeah, but I'm gonna be realistic about it.
22:17.01Neuro_Medivhpersistant-state competative games don't last
22:17.03loonatikInside: creating a mmog without a ton of bank isnt realisitic
22:17.12InsideThat's why I said it's gonna be 2D.
22:17.15loonatikive been apart of several indie groups trying
22:17.23loonatikand none of them came close
22:17.24Inside2D using existing graphic engines.
22:17.28loonatikbiggest one was planeshift
22:17.32loonatikand its still a piece of crap
22:17.44InsideI didn't say it was gonna be good :P
22:17.46loonatikit takes money and a lot of it
22:17.51InsideMoney? For what?
22:17.57Neuro_MedivhAny game like Shadowbane where you capture territory and physically affect the world in a pvp manner can't sustain itself
22:18.02loonatikInside:  resources
22:18.07InsideAside from bandwidth, a small group project shouldn't take much.
22:18.09loonatikNeuro_Medivh: bullshit
22:18.12loonatikUO Factions rocked
22:18.18loonatikthey didnt take it far enough
22:18.30loonatikyou should have been able to control the town more
22:18.33loonatikand make money off of it
22:18.37loonatikmore economy stuff
22:18.51Neuro_MedivhYou can't do it.
22:18.55Neuro_MedivhPeople lose interest
22:18.55loonatiksure you can
22:19.01loonatikthen they get taken out
22:19.02Neuro_Medivhit's counter-intuitive
22:19.05InsideYou just make the world big enough.
22:19.06loonatikand the next group with interest will run it
22:19.12loonatikno way
22:19.12InsideExactly.
22:19.20loonatikit would rule
22:19.27InsideYou make the system simple enough for everoyne to use and abues.
22:19.27loonatikand give people things to do
22:19.28Neuro_MedivhLoonatik, lemme ask you this: Do you enjoy any sports?  Football, baseball, basketball?
22:19.29loonatikthan grind for gear
22:19.29Insideabuse.
22:19.33loonatiksure
22:19.37Neuro_Medivhwhich is your favorite?
22:19.42loonatikhockey
22:19.51InsideI envision an MMO.. a massive world that's generated :)
22:20.02InsideA dungeon can only be cleared once (but it'll slowly regenerate itself)
22:20.06Neuro_MedivhOk, imagine if hockey rankings and scores carried over from season to season
22:20.24InsideYou make everything consumable.
22:20.33InsideThat weapon? Once its durability is down to 0.. you get a new one!
22:20.44Neuro_MedivhEventually, you hit a few teams with massive game leads
22:20.52Neuro_Medivhand no one ever watches the other teams
22:21.04Neuro_Medivhcause they never reach the playoffs
22:21.07Kaligarwho cares about scores best reason to watch hockey is because they beat the crap out of each other :P
22:21.08InsideIt'd be like hocket teams having to spend their scores and rankings to buy new gear
22:21.08InsidexP
22:21.16loonatiki disagree but i see your analogy
22:21.20TeomyrInside: lol
22:21.23loonatikbecause it would only take another group of people who want to do it
22:21.26loonatikand take it over
22:21.32loonatikand like you said people lost interest
22:21.36loonatikpeople can be betrayed
22:21.44Neuro_Medivhmy entire point is, eventually in a persistant state world, one team becomes dominant
22:21.49Neuro_Medivhand you need to reset
22:21.50InsideYeah, the most important part is that peopel feel consequences... in game.
22:21.51loonatikyou never can stay on top
22:21.56Neuro_Medivhsure you can
22:22.12loonatikive seen it in SWG with player run towns
22:22.13InsideLike if someone steals? They lose karma/whatever so get crappier procs..
22:22.15loonatikyou can move into a town
22:22.16loonatikand take it over
22:22.19InsideSame with PKs and so on.
22:22.22Neuro_MedivhOnce you obtain a dominant position, it's hard to knock you off, and you attract people who want to win
22:22.30loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  and so is life
22:22.33InsideYup
22:22.33loonatikbut there is always a bigger stick
22:22.37Neuro_Medivhgame isn't life
22:22.39loonatikand
22:22.41loonatiksure it is
22:22.45Neuro_MedivhNo, it's not
22:22.48loonatikwe are talking about a virtual reality
22:22.49loonatikso yea it is
22:22.53InsideThe thing is, you create enough points of interest to control that no one group can control it all.
22:23.00Neuro_MedivhBad bad analogy.  Life isn't fair.
22:23.03loonatikwe are talking about the game relaity being effeted by people
22:23.03Neuro_MedivhGames should be
22:23.04Teomyrgame shouldn't be life
22:23.06loonatikand people are real
22:23.11loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  lol
22:23.13InsideSo one team has a tyranical control over an area? Well, go elsewhere.
22:23.16loonatikthen you get a care bear world
22:23.18loonatikwho wants that?
22:23.24loonatiki sure as HELL dont
22:23.25Neuro_MedivhInside, and what happens when everywhere is controlled?
22:23.34loonatikNeuro_Medivh: then people take over other places
22:23.39loonatikpeople lose interest
22:23.48loonatikDnL had a similar system and it worked great
22:23.55loonatikif you could loook past the bugs and sheer lack of support
22:23.55Neuro_MedivhDnL?
22:23.58loonatikdark and light
22:24.02loonatikyou could take over barony's
22:24.03Neuro_Medivhno idea what that is
22:24.10InsideNeebler: You just create more places to be controlled ;)
22:24.13loonatikand if you controlled enough you could control the kingdom ect
22:24.20InsideThat's my problem with MMOs, Elwynn is Elwynn, it has a set size.
22:24.23loonatiklook at EVE
22:24.25loonatikperfect example
22:24.27loonatikthat game is awesome
22:24.29loonatikpeople LOVE it
22:24.30InsideEve is fucking huge.
22:24.34loonatikexactly
22:24.37loonatikthats a great example
22:24.38Neuro_Medivhmy entire point is that without a reset button, people lose interest in a persistant state competative world... Hell, just look at all the "new server" people to see that
22:24.42loonatikno way
22:24.48loonatikwith a reset button i lose interest
22:24.50InsideNeuro_Medivh: Not a reset, just a GM event ;)
22:24.52loonatikFPS's are fun
22:24.56InsideOops, flood? Looks like all your holdings are gone n_n
22:24.57loonatikbut if I could actually accomplish something
22:25.04loonatikby fighting in a FPS
22:25.08loonatikid be so much more interseted
22:25.08Neuro_MedivhWhen I say Reset Button, I mean like an end of season type thing
22:25.13loonatikright
22:25.22InsideThe thing with "new" servers is that people don't like it when there are people who are better off than them.
22:25.24loonatiknot having an objective
22:25.26loonatikor something you can build
22:25.27InsideWhich is silly stupid.
22:25.27loonatikis boring
22:25.36Neuro_Medivhand then everything resets to ground zero, and people try and "win" again
22:25.38loonatiki think using all my time to get faggoty purple gear
22:25.42loonatikso i can walk around and think im bad ass
22:25.43loonatikis lame
22:25.52loonatikid rather be able to take over ironforge
22:25.53Neuro_MedivhWoW isn't set up for the type of system I'm refering to
22:25.54loonatikor build a city
22:25.55InsideNeuro_Medivh: Hmm, ancient MO-BBSes had that sort of reset thing.
22:26.01loonatikNeuro_Medivh: it could be
22:26.07Neuro_MedivhBetter to start fresh.
22:26.19loonatiki liked UO because you could literally control a territory
22:26.20loonatikwith force
22:26.22Neuro_MedivhMy point is, for a game like Shadowbane to truly work, you need time limits
22:26.28loonatikwe totally owned the yew moongate
22:26.32loonatikif anyone came there they would die
22:26.33Neuro_Medivhthey tried the open ended FPS thing with Planetside
22:26.39loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  and planetside rocked
22:26.47Neuro_MedivhYes, until you got tired
22:26.53loonatiklike you do with most FPS
22:26.54Neuro_Medivhand realized nothing really MATTERED
22:26.56loonatikthere wasent enough content
22:26.57loonatikor things to build
22:27.02loonatik[it had your "Reset button" in it
22:27.15Neuro_MedivhNo, it had self-designed limits
22:27.25Neuro_Medivhit was impossible to take over the world in Planetside
22:27.35loonatikwhich is a good thing
22:27.37Neuro_Medivhi.e. it was hardcoded into the game
22:27.42Neuro_Medivhnot really
22:27.46Neuro_Medivhit meant you couldn't ever win
22:27.47loonatikno, you could take over all continents
22:27.49loonatikif you could
22:27.51loonatikright
22:27.55Neuro_MedivhNo
22:27.56loonatikwhats wrong with that?
22:28.04Neuro_Medivhthe game wouldn't allow that much of a player imbalance
22:28.06loonatikyou couldnt take over their home base
22:28.20loonatikwell, your lack of ability due to not enough forces is one thing
22:28.23loonatikyou COULD do it
22:28.25Neuro_MedivhCompetative based games need a win-lose paradigm
22:28.33loonatiki dont agree
22:28.46Neuro_Medivhyou think paladin vs paladin is exciting?
22:28.48loonatikit doesnt have to be that linear
22:28.52Neuro_Medivhwhere neither side can win?
22:29.02loonatiki think there is more than one big win
22:29.05loonatikor one big loss
22:29.14Kaligarwere there new functionjn for pet feeding?
22:29.22Neuro_Medivhthen why do people get bored of 20+ hour AVs?
22:29.31Neuro_Medivhyes, /cast Feed Pet
22:29.36loonatikbecause you dont end up owning the area
22:29.40loonatikand can do more with it
22:29.42MentalPower--/cast Feed pet; /use Some Random Food
22:29.44loonatiktheres not enough depth to it
22:29.47Kaligarhow do you select the item?
22:29.50Kaligark
22:29.55loonatikif it was like you could take over a city in wow
22:29.55MentalPowerwith the /use command
22:29.56loonatikand own it
22:29.58loonatikand make money off it
22:29.59Neuro_MedivhNo, people get bored of 20 hour AVs because nothing is being accomplished
22:29.59loonatiksetup shops
22:30.00loonatikdo MORE
22:30.04MentalPowernote that its two lines not one
22:30.04loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  right
22:30.12loonatikbut not accomplishing ANYTHING
22:30.22loonatikbut not accomplishing something, and not winning the entire map
22:30.26loonatikare two different things
22:30.32Neuro_MedivhOk, loonatik, what happens in AV when Alliance wins, controls the whole map...  then what?
22:30.41loonatikNeuro_Medivh: if AV was a city?
22:30.43loonatikgive them more to do with it
22:30.47loonatiksetup shops, make money off it
22:30.50loonatikown it as a guild
22:30.54Neuro_MedivhOk, and then?
22:30.55loonatikgive you bonuses for owning it
22:31.05Neuro_MedivhThen you're not playing a pvp game
22:31.10loonatiklol
22:31.10Neuro_Medivhyou're playing SimLife
22:31.11loonatiksure you are
22:31.16loonatiksimlife youc ant pvp for areas
22:31.24loonatikif you could id probably be more interested
22:31.40Neuro_MedivhOk, but once you control the area, THEN WHAT
22:31.43Neuro_Medivhthe game is over
22:31.47loonatikno
22:31.47Neuro_Medivhbut you're still there
22:31.50loonatikjust like when you have all your epic gear

22:35.11Neuro_Medivhit's what money REPRESENTS
22:35.17loonatikso whats your point
22:35.20loonatikhow does what your saying matter
22:35.22loonatikin what im saying
22:35.22Neuro_Medivhif money didn't buy anything, it'd be worthless
22:35.39loonatikand?
22:35.41Neuro_Medivhthat's why you saying "Let me make money" is meaningless until you define what money is good for in a game
22:35.52loonatikNeuro_Medivh: there are thigns to buy in this game
22:35.53loonatikbut yes
22:35.55loonatikwhat you are saying is true

22:37.19loonatikgive us things to do
22:37.20Neuro_MedivhSo, you want UO
22:37.23loonatiksure
22:37.26Neuro_MedivhWhy not play UO?
22:37.27loonatikuo was sweet
22:37.30loonatikbecause its dated
22:37.37Neuro_MedivhSo?
22:37.43Neuro_MedivhThe concept is still there
22:37.48Neuro_Medivhand if you don't like trammel
22:37.52Neuro_Medivhplay on the REAL server
22:38.01loonatikUO is the only game you could play where you can chop wood off a tree, carve that wood into kindling so you can start a fire to cook a cat you killed with a dog you tamed
22:38.03InsideI want a game, a massive game ;)
22:38.04loonatikdepth
22:38.10InsideAnd a fast way to traverse it.
22:38.23loonatikNeuro_Medivh: if uo had todays graphics id probably still be there
22:38.29loonatikbut
22:38.31Insideloonatik: WoW has all but that tree chopping >_>
22:38.35Neuro_MedivhIt does, they've upgraded the graphic engine like 3 times
22:38.36loonatiki also dont like the care bear shit they have done with the game
22:38.39InsideUO is coming out with upgraded graphics.
22:38.53Neuro_Medivhloonatik, then play on the Siege Perilous server
22:38.54loonatikNeuro_Medivh: have you played it? lol
22:38.55loonatiki have
22:38.56loonatikthe 3d engine sucked
22:38.57Neuro_Medivhthat's teh REAL server
22:38.58loonatikit was unplayable
22:39.16loonatikand they have ruined the game for the most part
22:39.21Neuro_MedivhHow?
22:39.23loonatikits gear based now
22:39.31Neuro_MedivhIt was gear based before
22:39.38loonatikno
22:39.45Neuro_Medivhthe upper limit on gear was just easy to reach
22:39.50loonatikright
22:39.56Neuro_Medivhfull plate and a halberd
22:39.58loonatikyou didnt need 30 billion dollars worth of gear
22:39.59loonatikto go fight
22:40.02loonatikif you lost your gear
22:40.05loonatikit wasent THAT BAD
22:40.12loonatiknow everything is insuranced
22:40.17loonatikyou gotta have 30 billion dollars worth of gear
22:40.19loonatikor you cant compete
22:40.30loonatiki used to spend all week and make bags full of EVERYTHING i needed to pvp
22:40.34loonatikid make up 50-100 bags
22:40.37loonatikthen id pvp all weekend
22:40.42loonatikand if i died id grab a new bag
22:40.44loonatikand run back out there
22:40.46loonatikit was SO much fun
22:41.09loonatikyou could grind a char out with a good template in a matter of weeks
22:41.10Neuro_MedivhBut you can't sustain that
22:41.11loonatikand then PLAY the game
22:41.15Neuro_Medivhpeople get bored
22:41.15loonatiksustain what?
22:41.19loonatikhehe no
22:41.22loonatikthere was so much to do man
22:41.26Neuro_Medivhthat type of open ended no-resolution gameplay
22:41.29loonatiki could go tame dragons, go play factions
22:41.34loonatikpvp the yew moongate
22:41.36loonatikraid a town

22:42.17loonatikwe woudl go help
22:42.27loonatikNeuro_Medivh: depends on who you rob ;)
22:42.38loonatikmy point is
22:42.41loonatikthere was so much to do
22:42.46loonatikyou could go around and collect rare items
22:42.49loonatikwhich you could sell for mad money

22:42.55loonatikthere were the arenas
22:42.58loonatikjoining guilds
22:43.00loonatikfighting guilds
22:43.08loonatikcrafting was huge
22:43.12loonatiknot like the joke shit in wow
22:43.21Neuro_Medivhyes, I agree with you there
22:43.29loonatikall im saying is i wnat more content
22:43.30loonatik=)
22:43.41loonatikand it sucks because we wont see a non wow clone for awhile
22:44.01Neuro_MedivhAnd I can concede the point, but a TON of what you want is unworkable due to the graphic design
22:44.16Neuro_Medivhmost features that make UO what it is stem from it's isometric design
22:44.21loonatikyea
22:44.23loonatiklike getting away
22:44.31loonatika total newb COULD run away
22:44.34loonatikin wow its impossible
22:44.51Neuro_Medivheven the housing and crafting
22:44.58loonatikeh, they could do that man
22:45.04loonatiklook at tall the buildings in major cities
22:45.06loonatikat all*
22:45.07Neuro_Medivhthe graphic system
22:45.19InsideMay I point out second life?
22:45.20loonatikeven eq2 has player housing
22:45.22Neuro_Medivhis not as condusive to it as you might think
22:45.24loonatikbe it isntanced
22:45.26loonatikits still there
22:45.27InsideIt's a virtual persistant world :)
22:45.35InsideIt only lacks the "RPG"-ish element.
22:45.44loonatikwow cant deal with large pvp
22:45.45InsidePeople can build their own crap, modify their avatars.
22:45.47loonatikthats what i dont like
22:45.49InsideAttach penises..
22:45.52InsideOr multiple vaginas.
22:46.00loonatiki want siege weapons and taking over towns and large crazy fights
22:46.04InsideCreate custome animation/skeleton systems
22:46.05Teomyrrofl
22:46.05loonatikyou get 100 people in wow together
22:46.07loonatikand its lag city
22:46.19Neuro_MedivhMy contention is still that a persistant-state PVP world eventually reaches a static equilibrium at which paying customers lose interest
22:46.26InsideThe thing s..
22:46.33InsideYou don't make persistant PVP the main point.
22:46.37Insidemake it a possible point.
22:47.06InsideHave NPC controlled cities and have player controlled cities.
22:47.06loonatiki just disagree
22:47.06InsideWell, not NPC controlled cities, GM controlled cities.
22:47.06Neuro_Medivhwell, that's the debate in question
22:47.06loonatiklike did you play AC?
22:47.06loonatikasherons call
22:47.06Neuro_MedivhI tried
22:47.10loonatikso you know the monoarchy system right?
22:47.12Neuro_Medivhit was like EQ, without as much content
22:47.17loonatikwhere you could sware allegence to peopole
22:47.18Neuro_Medivhso I stuck with EQ
22:47.20Neuro_Medivhyes
22:47.21loonatikwho swore allegence to others
22:47.27Neuro_Medivhthe fealty system
22:47.31Neuro_Medivhinteresting concept
22:47.34loonatikthere were massive changes in control
22:47.35loonatikall the time
22:47.41loonatikpeople would decide to go on their own
22:47.42loonatikand like
22:47.44Neuro_Medivhthat's not what I'm refering to though
22:47.47loonatikok lets say controlling a town in WOW
22:47.52loonatikit needs to be difficult
22:47.56loonatikyou need to have a ALOOOTOT of people
22:47.56loonatikto do it
22:47.59loonatikalot of resources
22:48.08loonatikwhich means people would have to work together
22:48.10InsideThe thing about any persistant control town..
22:48.16Insideis that you'll need to create NPCs to do mundane things.
22:48.19loonatikand when that happens thers always going to be shifts in power
22:48.29loonatiklike dont make it where you create a town and then its yours and youc annot be taken out
22:48.31Neuro_Medivhyou realize that BC has a town that you can control, right?
22:48.36loonatikyes
22:48.38InsideOH WOWZ ONE TOWN
22:48.43loonatikand thats what i want
22:48.44Neuro_Medivhhey, it's a start =)
22:48.53InsideYou need to have the feudal type of system ;)
22:48.57Neuro_MedivhI'm not saying the concept isn't viable
22:49.09Insideprolitareat NPCs who will do almost anything without problem :P
22:49.13Neuro_MedivhI'm simply saying that it's not LONG TERM viable
22:49.19InsideSure it is.
22:49.24loonatikbut what your saying is
22:49.28loonatika big guild is going to be able to control this town
22:49.30loonatikand never let it go
22:49.36loonatikright?
22:49.38InsideIt's viable, just gonna take an ass load of programming.
22:49.38InsidexD
22:49.48Neuro_MedivhInside, I mean it's not viable from a gameplay standpoint
22:50.10Neuro_Medivheventually, a few teams gain a lead that cannot be removed naturally
22:50.21Neuro_Medivhand that discourages new players
22:50.43Neuro_MedivhIn a non-competative system, it's not nearly as bad
22:50.55Neuro_Medivhbut look at WoW.  Top guilds almost always stay on top
22:50.57InsideYou just programmatically create checks and balances on them.
22:51.04Neuro_Medivhthen you get Planetside
22:51.09InsideThey're top because they don't ever ever stand a chance to lose anything.
22:51.14Neuro_Medivhwhere the game prevents any kind of static solution
22:51.20InsideThat T3 gear is yours to keep -- forever.
22:51.31InsideAlso, there's nothing really to compete with in WoW.
22:51.36InsideSure, you got PVP and BGs and so on
22:51.37*** join/#wowi-lounge loonatik (i=loonatik@dangerinc.net)
22:51.39Neuro_MedivhI know, that's why it works
22:51.42loonatiksorry got dropped
22:51.45InsideThat's why it sucks and is static.
22:51.53Neuro_Medivhit still works
22:51.57InsideYeah, it works.
22:52.00InsideNobody is contesting that.
22:52.08InsideWe're just saying we want a more dynamic world :P
22:52.12loonatikall im saying is, as long as you make it difficult enough where one guild simply cannot do it, where it takes teamwork there will be shifts in power/people lose interest
22:52.19loonatikand as long as you give people a way to participate
22:52.22loonatikeven at smaller levels
22:52.24loonatiklike owning a shop
22:52.25loonatikin the town
22:52.28loonatikor something smaller
22:52.33loonatikit would be hella fun
22:52.36InsideYeah
22:52.42InsideThe biggest thing that players want to do is feel like they're participating.
22:52.45Neuro_MedivhBut a persistant state world, where you could control towns and such, you reach a point where new players don't wanna join anymore cause they don't feel competative
22:52.59InsideGo play Blockland -- that's the funnest game ever! You get some non-lego branded bricks and can make anything out of em.
22:53.10InsideWhy is Garry's mod one of the most popular HL2 mods? Cause you can build shit out of it.
22:53.27loonatikNeuro_Medivh: i just dont think that even in a persistant world people will gain the upper hand and be able to hold it indenfitely
22:53.34InsideWell
22:53.36Neuro_MedivhOne team?  Maybe not
22:53.36InsideLook at EVE
22:53.43loonatikyea eve is ag ood example
22:53.47loonatikthey do it in eve
22:53.54loonatikthat game is fun as hell
22:53.57InsideThe thing is, you create enough world for any ammount of teams to have their piece of ground :P
22:54.06loonatikyou can only go so big though
22:54.10InsideWhy?
22:54.14Neuro_MedivhInside, then you lose the competative nature
22:54.16loonatikwell, in wow the graphics
22:54.21loonatikyou couldnt have endless area
22:54.25loonatikor the install would be too big
22:54.25InsideWhy not?
22:54.29InsidePfft.
22:54.35InsideYou create 5-10 different trees
22:54.36loonatikyou suggested generated
22:54.38loonatikgeneration sucks
22:54.40Insideand have a massive forest.
22:54.41loonatiklook at swg
22:54.43loonatikthe world blew
22:54.44Neuro_MedivhActually, WoW does have endless area.  Instances.
22:54.46loonatikwow looks so much better
22:54.50loonatikNeuro_Medivh:  yea but instances suck
22:54.52InsideThat's one thing.
22:54.52loonatikimo
22:54.53loonatikbut
22:54.54loonatikthats one way
22:54.57InsideJust cause one team did it ba.
22:55.07Neuro_Medivhthat's what you're suggesting.  Every team gets their own piece of land.
22:55.09InsideThere's a massive terrain generator -- it's not a game, just a generator, and it was awesome.
22:55.16loonatikInside: all im saying is you have to hand tailor the land
22:55.19loonatikfor it to look good
22:55.21loonatikimo
22:55.22InsideWhy?
22:55.28InsideYou just create a decent generator.
22:55.32InsideI'm not saying it's easy..
22:55.41InsideBut the majority of real life terrain looks like shit anyways.
22:55.43loonatikbut the ways you could generate land you cant have some of the effects
22:55.50InsideLike what?
22:56.02InsideAllow players a way to terraform the terrain just a tiny bit :P
22:56.03loonatikim trying to think of a place in wow
22:56.06Neuro_MedivhInside, in that case, there's no real competition.  There is no lack of resources, you just go generate some more terrain
22:56.14loonatikhrmm
22:56.25Neuro_MedivhAlso, it illustrates the key difference between real life and games
22:56.32Neuro_Medivhin real life, conflict is a byproduct
22:56.44InsideThat's the thing, really..
22:56.46Neuro_Medivhthe point of war is to take something, or win some objective
22:56.47loonatiki also think that you wouldnt want it so big
22:56.53InsideNot all players want conflict!
22:56.54loonatiki dunno
22:56.55*** part/#wowi-lounge cncfanatics (n=cncfanat@172.151-240-81.adsl-dyn.isp.belgacom.be)
22:56.57InsideSome players just want to build crap :)
22:56.57Neuro_Medivhthe point of a game is the conflict itself
22:57.01loonatikright
22:57.24loonatikso you would want people to have to fight for a spot of land
22:57.24loonatikyou could do that by giving certian land more value
22:57.24loonatikresource wise
22:57.24loonatikmoney wise
22:57.24loonatikkinda like in UO the houses near towns
22:57.27ScytheBlade1wow, that'd be gay
22:57.28InsideThe kind of an MMO I want is that players can create their own conflict. Me vs. nature. Me vs. NPCs. Me vs. Other players.
22:57.29loonatikwere worth a lotof money
22:57.30ScytheBlade1WoW landgrab!!!
22:57.38InsideThat'd be awesome xP
22:57.41loonatikScytheBlade1: it woudl rock

22:57.52ScytheBlade1loonatik, no it wouldn't.
22:57.53loonatiki used to buy/sell real estate in UO
22:57.56loonatikyes it would
22:57.56InsideHehe
22:57.57ScytheBlade1And likewise, that's *all* opinion
22:58.00Neuro_MedivhInside, right, the 2x2 rubrik
22:58.11loonatiki used to buy/sell real estate in UO, i made so much money doing it
22:58.15loonatikit was a blast
22:58.20ScytheBlade1If I wanted to buy and sell land
22:58.23loonatikand people who had houses near towns
22:58.24ScytheBlade1I'd play Sim City
22:58.26loonatikreally really made good money
22:58.30loonatikScytheBlade1:  thats fine
22:58.31InsideA player/team should be able to say "build a palisade here, build a shop there, and spend 30G on hiring 5 level 50 guards to patrol the city"
22:58.32loonatikyou dont have too
22:58.34Neuro_MedivhActive vs Interactive, Environment vs Players
22:58.36loonatikScytheBlade1: it shouldnt be manditory
22:58.37loonatikbut for me
22:58.38loonatikid like too
22:58.45loonatikand if i coudl buy land and setup a shop you could use
22:58.48loonatikthat would benifit us both

22:59.00loonatikand sell things
22:59.04loonatikto help you
22:59.10InsideThat's what I did in FFXI c_c
22:59.16loonatikid have fun in doing so, and you would benifit
22:59.27InsideYou could have bazaars -- I parked myself at fishing docks to sell fishing gear, outside of dungeons to sell food.
22:59.43InsideOutside the cloth craft guild to sell cloth parts..

23:02.45InsideOr have a gear vs. enemy sort of thing.
23:02.48Neuro_Medivhbtw, classic Multiplayer archetype article: http://www.mud.co.uk/richard/hcds.htm

23:03.38thrbut it's still so annoying
23:06.15thrWhen the only reason you loose to someone is because he's twinked
