Lobbies are a dictatorship. Kick at will my liege.

Even if you just buy it and play the single player or play against AI with friends, it's worth $5.
I can't get Odell Down Under to work on my computer :( Stupid 64-bit OS..
[quote who="OMG_RedneckNinja" reply="2138" id="2858237"] edit; wait shadow are you playing guild wars now?[/quote] I have it now. I haven't actually played it much since I got it.
[quote who="Thundercles" reply="9" id="2857581"] At DesConnor's level of play and those that he will be playing with and against, he wouldn't know whether him dying as Rook was his fault or not.[/quote] And he should be glad. There is nothing worse than knowing, well, if no one teleports to my towers, I will certainly die. :( Well not certainly, your opponents could be just as bad and waste their interrupts and stuns
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2135" id="2857409"]Sorry went to eat well just tell me a name of one of your existing chars and I'll add you for whenever you log on.[/quote] I have a warrior/monk named Ross the Berserker. (A reference to FE: Sacred Stones :) ) Ross was my favorite character.
[quote who="OMG__IN1" reply="7" id="2857305"] I'll maybe add Rook to the easier-to-begin-with DG selection. [/quote] I mean, he has a lot of health, but he's slow and has no great escape mechanism, so I wouldn't recommend him for newer players. A good rook player can be very strong though because he has such amazing staying power (offset by not having any leaving power lol).
I might get on and play tonight, I actually like brothers :O Mandala isn't to bad either if you can get eight people. Anything but exile.
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2133" id="2857387"]Hehe add me ingame already I've been doing AB and have donated 90k faction in the past day :/[/quote] Well, I've been playing TF2 and the new AoE
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2128" id="2857027"]Did you get it in? As to which campaign it's just a matter of choice imo if you want to be assassin or ritualist start in factions and if you want to be derv or paragon you have to start in nightfall. Other than that the one with the steepest curve is factions. Add me ingame as Vladimir Orochi btw and I'll start a char with you.[/quote] OK. I guess I'll make a char in Prophecies. I tried the Dervish a little bit, and scythes were cool,
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2126" id="2856943"]We weren't always anti social you gotta understand that its been out for 5 years and most people who are social are in PvP now. I played it with dial up synn you gotta do better than that. Edit: And you could always join an active guild.[/quote] Which campaign should I play?
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="2120" id="2855693"]also... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMWc2KPFFv4&feature=player_embedded [/quote] Sounds a lot like genesis. [quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2121" id="2855711"]Split did you grab Eye of the North to? if not it's 50% off ingame I'm pretty sure.[/quote] I didn't, I just got the trilogy. I could get it though. Is it just $10?
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2117" id="2855636"]Whats your ingame name split? and which campaigns? Nah I played AoE2 for 6 years[/quote] I don't know yet, I made like... 4 trial accounts earlier lol :D I got all three, but they're still being shipped. Age of Mythology is definitely better though.
[quote who="OMG_Shiro" reply="2115" id="2855558"]Yo synn you still playing Guild wars? I started back yesterday. Edit: Age of Empires 2 was the best anyway >.>[/quote] I got Guild Wars for Christmas :D Age of Mythology > All other games.
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="2111" id="2855407"] I haven't played with the settings yet, but isn't there an option to make resources more abundant or something to that effect? But that said, I also think its pretty realistic and fair that resources are randomly located. Real life civs work like that, so why not here, eh? [/quote] Yes, there is a setting for just that in advanced options. They give you a lot of freedom with that stuff actually.
It's also too much of a rush for iron because swordsmen crush everything. The maps can also really swing in your favor if you get tons of iron near your starting location. I think it wouldn't be too hard to make cultural victory possible. All they would need to do is increase all of the cultural bonuses and drastically reduce the increase in culture cost per number of cities. You really can't win the game with one or two cities, you'll just get destroyed. They also need more powerful
[quote who="OMG__IN1" reply="2105" id="2855019"] And yeah - I found it VERY easy to win as nobunaga, but that was on the easiest settings. I'm cranking the difficulty up per game and seeing if it enters the realm of challenging. [/quote] I cranked it up to like the 6th(?) difficulty and it still pretty easy to win if I used Nobunaga. One thing I didn't like was that all of the leaders were pretty much the same except for 4 differences, which were essentially small bonu
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="2103" id="2854982"]I really need to not play civ 5 for a bit... I wasn't a huge fan of it at first, but decided to get back into it again and its "one more turn" game play is like crack. Got home late on Christmas and played it from 11PM - 5AM... didn't even realize more than an hour had gone by... Lost a couple of hours to it yesterday as well. [/quote] I got bored of civ 5. There really isn't much to do each turn, and
[quote who="OMG_NinkiCZ" reply="2065" id="2849143"]Welcome to my world.[/quote] There's a huge difference though. Everyone who hears Synn would think he's male. Everyone who hears you, Ninki, would assume you are female. Still not convinced by the way xD
[quote who="OMG_pacov" reply="2037" id="2848378"]how is the beta and when did u get the invite?[/quote] Alienware is doing a promotion where you fill out a short survey and you get a promotional code that puts you higher on the waiting list. Other than that, I just signed up and waited for about three weeks. I'm about two hours into it, and I'm not really thrilled with it.
[quote who="OMG_Teseer" reply="2032" id="2848235"]My gift to you if that you can make up any gossip about me you like. [/quote] I heard that Teseer guy did catnip once. Also, I got in the AoE online beta :D
[quote who="OMG_Teseer" reply="2015" id="2847262"] Plus, NO STRATEGIC ZOOM! No excuse. No excuse at all. [/quote] It really does suck that they based the SC2 engine off of War3's considering it's eight years old :( I also kind of wish the mini-map were larger and that you could move about the screen with WASD. My arrow keys are tiny on this laptop, and I have to really curl my arm over to press them. If I played it a lot, I could probably get used to the mouse scr
Google baby echidna. It's the first image [e digicons]^_^[/e] Google wouldn't lie to you, would it?
I didn't initially notice this but ... the images in the OP are actually baby echidnas. (echidnae?)
You'd have to ridiculously nimble to interrupt a heal or a spit on fast settings lol. Has anyone played around with the Chrome developer tools? They're really, really awesome. They look almost like a debugger for HTML and CSS that actually works. O.o
