LOL! To be honest, we don't progress as fast as we should without it, but we still raid every night. (We have two teams of raiders, they don't all raid on the same nights)

Re: What game are you playing thread

The only reason I play MMO's is for the social interaction, and being a self-employed businessman most of my life I've developed leadership qualities that lend themselves well to these types of social games; I dole out responsibilities to members who can handle them and build my guilds to mimic a system of government, with a definable hierarchy. It's an extremely successful way to lead, and I haven't played an MMO yet where my guild/clan/alliance wasn't at the top tier of the server. My Lineage 2 clan became one of the most memorable clans on its server, and in only a few months my WoW guild has climbed to the top 5 in the guild census on its respective server. Granted, in the beginning I was always there, sometimes the entire day, going through the rigmarole of leadership - but I've built a strong system that is self-sufficient and works on its own, without my having to be there 12 hours a day. Amazingly my members still respect and look up to me and while I may not be leading every raid or solving every problem, I'm still seen as the head honcho.

And wow, I just tooted all of my own horns. Sorry about that

Re: What game are you playing thread

This:
News: The Battle for Wesnoth v1.3.13a Free Full Game - GamersHell.com

its got heart to it - like all the older games used to have. It also has a lot of content - multiplayer - local game; set yourself against the AI and have a look at the differnet races; and best part is that it is free


I feel like an ad bot -- but a good ad bot

Re: What game are you playing thread

Nearly finished Mass Effect, I think.

Level 42 characters, 20 odd hours of game time and a blue skinned Alien girlfriend.

Fantastic storyline and some great morality choices throughout the game.

I might just start again as an evil son of a bitch.

Same here. I haven't so much as thought about any other game since my mate introduced me to it a few months ago. Luckily I have a wife and a job so I can't get away with playing it every waking hour.

Finally finished Mass Effect.

Brilliant ending. Can't wait until Mass Effect 2 comes out.

Re: What game are you playing thread

I want to try mass effect, it sounds good.
I've finished Crysis on Delta level now, and I'm working my way through Tiberium Wars.

Mass Effect 2 will still come out... but it'll run in 12fps, need patches to keep it working, and by completely generic. Oh, and it will be on the PS3 as a hideously terrible port, because EA are nice like that - they love releasing every single game they publish as a multiplatform game.

And Mass Effect 3 will come out a year later, and it will be even worse than ME2.

Those are my predictions for the rest of the ME trilogy. Anyone want to be foolish and bet against me?

Re: What game are you playing thread

nope 0 but my greatest sadness is that the likley first Bioware/EA game is "Dragon Age"
and I was so hopeing for this game to be a return to the single player glory days of Baldurs Gate - -and it had dragons! (Not a group of men wearing dragon armour and being really good fighters)

sigh - well I guess I have to hold out for SCII - blizzard are one of the few decent game makers left!

Blizzard may well be the only one left

I thought the new options in NWN2: Mask of the Betrayer made it close enough to Baldur's gate to be enjoyed almost as much. The strategic view lets you feel like you're playing the good ol' 6 player BG games again. The NPCs are well written and varied enough to let you take whatever class you like. I would like the option to multiclass them though.
