Anyone planning on attending this years Blizzcon? Dates are Nov 8/9th.

I'm going for sure, already have some tickets... mainly because the Starcraft World Championship is being held there which will be the biggest Starcraft Tourney ever. They are doing the qualification for it all year in the WCS, streams are on daily if you hadn't checked it out.


Might have some extra tickets to sell if anyone really wanted to go but missed out on the order.

I imagined the velvet unicorn shirt + fake rolex trenchcoat full of blizzcon tickets. A+ Scalper image.

Is there anything else interesting supposedly happening? Not that I'll go, I just haven't been paying attention to blizz since d3's faceplant.

Na nothing else really going on so far that's planned. Probably info on D3 expansion, next WoW xpac, or SC2 xpac... I'm hoping for at least a hint at Titan.

I think his semester is over and could be peer-pressured into playing. Who could turn down Donk Ft. Pufftrees?

I agree valk!

Pretty lame about Titan... but judging on their recent failures it's probably good blizzard doesn't do it. A lot of people had guessed it would be some kind of FPS mmo, which is exactly like Destiny the new xbox1 game... so perhaps they just didn't want to share the market or something. I'm still looking forward to Hearthstone... probably still hit Blizzcon also.

We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.

I googled "Cheesy quotes about hope"

it sounded a lot like sunwell though, so I rolled with it.

Moe, Naj, and I are trying out Neverwinter online (aka d&d online 2) if you want to join us puff. The game isn't anything special but it is free and has no restrictions like swtor, also there is near unlimited content as people can create their own dungeons and share them.

As for Titan, they aren't scraping it, they are just going back in and adjusting the technology to work with the new xbox an ps. So while they are doing that the rest of the team really can't do anything, so they are being moved to help out on some other project until they are needed on Titan again. The 2016 release date isn't anything unexpected either, why release another mmo that is going to take sub's away from your cash cow, they are probably just waiting till 2016 because that is when they estimate that wow will drop below a predetermined number of subs, at that point they could launch Titan and hopefully regain some of the lost subs they lost. That year would also kinda be at the end of the next wow expac, so again it makes sense for timing.

Blizzcon this year should still be good, expect d3, wow, and possibly sc2 xpacs announced.

Yea I was playing that NWO beta, was pretty cool. But then I realized I didn't want to mess around with an mmo beta. Might level up on SW now that it's free... but honestly have more fun playing xbox or LoL .

There is no wipe after "beta" in neverwinter. I made sure of this before I gave it a shot. The game play is fun, lack of armor customization sucks though. Gotta be able to dress up my barbie doll.

What server are you playing on zed? I got to level 35ish and got bored, was on mindflame, mindflay, something mind releated.

Yea but as long as its still in beta it has that stigma, similar to getting people to play PoE while its pretty much launched.

It was fun for a bit but I just wasn't feeling it... think I'm mess around with Star Wars for now.

Star wars was TERRIBLE for free to play. Only being able to do 4 dungeons and pvp matches a week, only having 2 character slots, unable to have more then 500k credits, when the cheapest of the end game mods go for over 1 mil, only having 2 action bars to work with. So I'd highly stay away from that game puff, as the only free part is the story and even that is junk.

I kinda stopped playing neverwinter as well sap, it just got boring once I hit lvl 33. Rift has made the switch to f2p and I'm going to give that a shot again as it was a fun game, and they have no limits on the content.

Oh, LOL I thought it was really free to play. Thanks for saving me the downloading time.

Rift on the other hand is kind of intriguing. The graphics in that game were just amazing... we played a little together right Zed?? We did so many random MMOs they all kind of go together as far as who I was playing with lol.

The rift talent trees are really cool, and they have a ton of shit to do at max level although I never quite made it that far. Let me know how its going and what server you on etc!

Fun so far, they made some quality of life changes that were needed. I think I'm around 20 with my new toon I made, but I still have the ones from when we were playing it before, kinda wanted to learn the game again and start from scratch. Moe and I are planning on running a healer/tank group, so if you want to come and bring the dips feel free. My toons name is Zedddd and we are on the deepwood server.

Picked up Rift tonight, took me a while to recover my original account  lol.  Forgot most of my secret questions and stuff , good times. 

Why did you pick pve server Zed?  They have some recommended pvp servers!  Also are you the (alliance or horde) equivalent?  Let me know, im meantime I'll be playing on necropolis as a human mage, krystyliz

I just picked a pve server just because it was easier to learn what the hell I was doing without the fear of getting raped by max level people.  With free transfers you can transfer whenever to whatever type of server.

I forgot how deep and awesome the class system is/was.  So much customization available if you want it, or you can go with cookie cutter pre-sets like marksman etc.  I was trying all kinds of wild hybrids... I was a DPS reaver warrior with a beastmaster pet for a bit lol.  I will probably mess around for a while, not sure which faction will settle on etc.  

A friend at work wants to play so we will probably start chars whenever she can, in meantime are you on gaurdian or evil?  Can you faction change or just server change?  I'll most likely end up being a mage or maybe Cabalist/inquisitor cleric.

Game is great fun though, especially if you can push its graphics up.  I actually bought my current computer simply to get more frames on rift (about 2.5 years ago), and still Rift is probably only game that pushes it to the limit.  I run Skyrim and other newer games on max settings with no problem.  On rift I can add so much AAx16 etc wher I drop down under 15 fps!   On Ultra and then increasing some view distance etc I get around 45 FPS which is all I really need I guess.
