Volkfang Rock

I think we need to open up some lines of communication with Mythic and get the server name changed. Not only does it reflect the recently merged communities, but it sounds a HELL of a lot cooler than Gorfang. Not that Gorfang isn’t cool or anything, just sayin’. So we’re down to two major servers…

Guild System Overhaul

 Back at the launch of WAR where having several hundred guildies and several dozen online were much more commonplace, I was actually a high ranking officer of one of the largest Destro guilds on the ORvR/RP servers. Still to this day I can recall quite vivdly the incredibly charismatic guild leader who really served as…

Warhammer is the Detroit of MMOs

-The Importance of the “thing”- was the original title/topic, but things evolved towards the end and I don’t feel like changing shit around again. It’s time for my weekly GD post already. lol  Objectives in PvP that don’t have much to do with crushing in a skull or putting the sharp end of my buisness…

Power Escalation

As the era of WAR post-1.4 comes into full bloom the battlefields are being saturated more and more fully by a class of player that is wearing Sovereign as a baseline for competition. My time in-game has been limited as there’s been a couple dozen other distractions between work, personal life, and non-WAR gaming. However,…

Casual Attraction or Attracting Casuals

Killing for the sake of killing only goes so far in any game. In my humble opinion, killing players for an endless amount of time for the sake of resetting the playground in neither persons favor appears to be a grind on the path to the last few bits of progression oriented gear. What alleviates…

2010 Blogroll Thingy Update

Yar update be live! I really shouldn’t have stayed up so late to do it either… If anyone is missing drop a comment, or poke me on twitter, or send an email, or tell a friend of a friend to nudge me in the right direction. Things to note, lots of new people that I…

Onward to the Future!

It’s that time of year again, where the year closes to an end and reminiscing is rampant in the blogosphere. I started pulling together my thoughts on WAR over the past year by tracking the patch notes and different changes we’ve had, but that ended up being a little over 1000 words, and I had…

Inevitable T5, or not

Tier 5 It seems like an inevitability at this point. RR gain has been drastically increased, up to RR80 at least. Captains medallions (the blue ones with a big V on them) dropping off RR80+ players are a dead giveaway. The introduction of green gear for RR80+ as RvR drops, a little miffed there isn’t…

Non-WAR Gaming in 2010

My games of 2010 in order of rating. Fallout: New VegasIntentionally DNF. Game of the year. Does everything Fallout style perfectly. Rare bugs are excuseable. Content is excellent. VATS improvement is MUCH appreciated. Choices have serious implications, cannot kill everything to win. Perfect game for 2010. 10/10 EVE OnlineCurrent sub. Second drug of choice. Much…
