Malcador

I was there when it was introduced. I've been playing WoW since 2005. As I said if they had LFG without CRZ then what is the issue ? We had rage quitters, ninja looters, unpleasant bastards back in vanilla, I personally never cared that much to go try to whip up people to blacklist them but I guess some would have if they read the forums (or listened to randos in general chat). Have to think it was added as Blizzard saw people using addons to do the same (probably the same with a lot of things, actually). People talking about how good socializing was in Vanilla is really strange to me all I recall from my many PUG runs was immature jokes or just people bitching about my healing or the tank. A lot like LFG really. Certainly never recalled instances of helping people out, other than "thotbot it <expletive>". Maybe is just that NA players are bigger **** ?

Well, retail is their main version so if they get people back to play with better systems why not try. I do miss LFG though, without CRZ I really don't see the issue as it just spares you from excessive /1 and /2 spamming. That's nice when everyone's in Westfall or Darkshore but when it spreads out it becomes a bit more tedious.

Nice cover, shame the subject matter has odd bits of Rhodesia fetishism in the comments

Some fans have been asking for that, but have to think the game is where it is due to players liking it. Hardcore players have always bitched the loudest but who knows if they're the largest set (I anticipate hearing people bitch about people not "earning" the gear soon) Doubt that Blizzard just does the opposite of what the players seem to like just for laughs. Vanilla's mythologizing is getting pretty comical now - heard someone describe the gameplay as 'emergent' which makes me wonder what game that person was playing. As for the line about thinking you do, it's still early days - give it time and some people may not find the grind all that fun especially after 30 when the path you're to take because more muddled. People raved about WoD in early days after all, hah. Takes a while for the inevitable bitching WoW players are only good for to come out Always thought he was more correct than some give him credit for, seems to think everyone believed he was totally wrong. I do wonder what changes they can try to make to the current version based on the classic feedback. Given the current version will be an expansion is a bit harder to get the same journey feel in 10 levels that people did out of 60 and 40 odd zones.

Good to know every Horde player is insecure still. As a Paladin main, I agree TBC was the high point and want them to give us that version Grinding along, though I am having more fun trolling all the smug vanilla people more than anything else. Also they cleared MC already, dang.

Still have to finish DoK. Maybe will just do it on easy to get it over with.

Yep, all this nonsense about the wonder of the world and discovery, etc. is going to fade once you hit 60 and spend your days in IF or a BG queue.

Hm ok, thought it was something that opened the gate. Still was a goofy thing to toss into the ending, then again HW2 was "eh" story wise. Curious how Gearbox and Randy will screw this up. I hope it goes Epic timed exclusive.

So I guess we'll find out what the hell the Eye of Aarran is. Was one amusing curveball HW2 threw at the end

Wasn't all that common for me back then. Then again maybe as I played on a PvP server it was chock full of pricks.

The pop culture references were always present in WoW, though. Suppose it was made a bit worse in Cataclysm, at least for the Alliance parts of the revamp. Will see how much people enjoy the journey when you lose a lot of direction at 30-45. Reading comments about this on other forums people bandy about 'immersion' so much, I'd think they were talking about a Bethesda game. Not sure what's with the excessive nice behaviour, must be some weird conformist thing where everyone has to buff everyone they can and I keep having strange people trying to offer me gear. Definitely not the WoW community I know, hopefully it returns to normal.

Good times almost dying in Vash'jr with dozens of mobs spawning due to that, hah.

Trying to recall many instances of that in the movies and not coming up with that much, well at least in the O/PT movies.

My server has a 8000 queue. Played a bit on an Oceanic server, slow going what with every killing field overrun with players.

Had 3 out of my 5 team members get shot in SWAT 4 and still came out with a score of 72/100. Will have to redo that, room breaching with the inept AI is harder than it should be. This game'd be impossible if the AI could hear flasbhangs and gunfire, makes me wonder how real life SWAT would handle some of these - well without relaxing the RoE and just ambushing people.

Ah, he's a Comcast shill.

Hm, tempted to watch that.

Thought that was a guitar in his hands at first

Background music sounds like something from System Shock 2.

Short links work as well, it's just very finicky about recognizing them at all in either format. I find refreshing the page seems to do the trick.

I'm looking forward to playing my pally, can alt-tab and play Football Manager. Launch day for Classic is going to be a mess, heh. Wonder how many people will tough it out past 6 months, though.

Wonder how much Denmark would charge for it. Saw one estimate for $553 B but that ignored resources.
