Speculating on the Guild Wars 2 release date

All the tweets from ArenaNet say that they haven't announced a date yet, but I think we can draw a few conclusions from recent earnings calls. According to the NCsoft earnings report from a couple days ago, Guild Wars 2 is on track for a late Q3 - early Q4 release. NCsoft Korea's fiscal Q3 ends Sept 11, 2012 and Q4 runs until the end of the calendar year. I'm going to assume that since this was a Korean earnings call they're going by that and not the US fiscal year which runs a little different ...

Elder Scrolls Online Anounced, Why Am I Disappointed?

Elder-Scrolls-Online I knew the announcement was coming, the rumors of an Elder Scrolls MMO have been circulating the interwebs for quite some time. But now that its official, I'm more underwhelmed and skeptical than excited. I have a feeling I'm not alone. The first thing that comes to mind is that Elder Scrolls Online (or ESO) will take resources away from the next true Elder Scrolls game. ZeniMax claims that it won't, that the teams are separate, but lets look at the big picture. Bethesda releases a new game from ...

Worst moments in MMO History

After watching Bioware shoot themselves in the foot repeatedly over the last 48 hours, I started thinking about how this series of events would go down in history. As I look at the historic fail moments of the games I've played its becoming more and more evident that yeah... Bioware screwed up big time. Star Wars Galaxies The NGE patch was, and still is, the biggest flop that I can recall. Early on in the game if you wanted to become a Jedi it took countless hours and the accomplishment of finally ...

Mike O’Brien talks about mirotransactions in the latest ArenaNet blog post

Some good stuff here, gold sellers be dammed! In this month’s closed beta event, we’ll do some early testing of the Guild Wars 2 microtransactions system. Our microtransaction content isn’t nailed down yet, but we have a good framework in place to support it. So, I’d like to take a moment to explain our goals and the system we have developed to meet them. We believe in microtransactions because they fund ongoing development of the game in a very straightforward and open way. You, ...

SWTOR 1.1.5 Patch Notes

General Players can now use the command /roll or /random to generate a random number between 1 and 100. This command will also accept a range (example: /roll 20-40) or a die value (example: 2d6). Classes and Combat General Moving while channeling an ability (such as Telekinetic Throw and Force Lightning) will no longer cancel the Global Cooldown, which would allow those abilities to deal more damage than intended. The French version of the "Darth" title is now correct. Flashpoints ...

Guild Wars 2 Preview Roundup

shatterer The press NDA has been lifted, and that means Guild Wars 2 news. I nabbed some snippets from some of the first few previews so you can see what people are saying, so far its a lot of positive feedback, but we've seen that all before. Is it all hype? can Guild Wars 2 follow through with the inflated expectations people have, or will it fall flat like so many AAA releases have in the past few years? You be the judge and weigh in with your thoughts in the comments below. From Kotaku: Ten Things ...

SWTOR PvP Gear Changes Explained

The recently released notes for patch 1.1.2 raised a lot of eyebrows when people saw the following line: The number of commendations in Champion and Battlemaster Bags has been greatly increased, and the direct item trade tokens appear less frequently in Champion Bags. This change allows players to obtain PvP gear at a steady and significantly more predictable rate with an occasional bonus. At first glance it appeared that gearing up would be more difficult than it is now, but that was debunked ...

Bioware clears up SWTOR Resolution questions.

Sith_Empire_Icon From Stephen Reid- "Hey everyone, thanks for bearing with us as we investigated the concerns raised here. After investigation, it seems that the confusion here is a combination of a UI issue that's been resolved and a feature that's working as intended, but the reason why it's 'working as intended' needs explanation. First, the UI issue. The preferences menu as it is seen on the Public Test Server for version 1.1 of the game is correct - there are only supposed to be two texture choices, ...
