Looks like Cryptic are taking the “test” part of the STO Open Beta Test seriously. A Good Thing. They’ll be keeping us in the starter areas until we’ve given them a good working over.
I’ll be live-blogging the Open Beta launch later today.
Patch Notes Known Issues for Jan 11 2010 – ST.0.2010108b.10
Open Beta will start with characters restricted to playing Federation and Klingon sectors only. You will not be able to access Romulan, Cardassian, or Borg space until […]
From out of left-field comes Lego Universe! I don’t know much about this game yet, but after seeing this, I intend to find out. Concrete information about gameplay is still very scarce. It looks like it will involve all the building goodness we’d expect from any lego game, but in an MMO world where you are battling dark forces. No info that I can find about how combat or economy will work. It’s slated for release in the second half […]
This is another one of those videos which will haunt your nightmares. I share them only so I know I am not alone in my despair.
I have a feeling that whoever designed this dance routine hadn’t actually seen Star Wars. Pointing out the most obvious flaws:
1) C3P0 cannot fly. Grudgingly I’ll admit Darth Vader probably could, though not in that ridiculous Superman pose.
2) There is but one Darth Vader, and he’ll accept no imitations. I suppose […]
I’ve been having a ridiculous amount of luck clearing up quests this week, leaving very few that Maltheas can complete at his current level. I’ve even let him level twice, with him now on 38, but the end of a tier in EQ2 is always the hardest time. You are still mostly using the same equipment you were at 32, with no upgrades in sight until 40. Still, an Extreme Quester should at least attempt to do any available quests […]
I don’t own a Wii. That’s a bit of a shame as I could certainly use any form of exercise. This is almost enough to get me to make that purchase. Behold WiiWaa in all his orange glory!:
Awesome! I desperately wish I was 6 again just to experience that. Now all we need is for someone to transfer that technology to MMOs, and me and my plushie ratonga can bounce our way to loot and fitness!
I’ve been […]
In the City of Qeynos, where almost everyone is nice, in a damp bit of tree moss! Lives Frubbie, (Frubbie,) Frubbie, (Frubbie,) Frubbie the Racist Froglok
Maltheas attempts to reason with Frubbuppa Bogstomper the Racist Froglok
Frubbuppa Bogstomper is Maltheas’ arch-nemesis. Whenever she sees him making his way about town, on some goodly deed or other, she makes a point of shouting out that he does not belong in such a kind and loving place as Qeynos. Why? […]
I’ve been posting about my Everquest 2 Extreme Quester, Maltheas, for years now. You might ask “But what in the wide world of Norrath, Ark, is Extreme Questing?”. Actually, quite a lot of folks have asked in the past. I told them, and they looked at me with a mixture of fear, awe, and pity. I thought it might be an idea if I actually write a proper post on it at long last.
Why is it “Extreme”? Well, it’s […]
