Hot Heart Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 How to sell yourself of to the highest bidder(s)! Hehe, nice! You look so dark and brooding, yet I get an odd sense of light and refreshment from the picture. Hmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 I don't know about everyone else, but I prefer the simple, clean costume look. Though, as I collect more gear and styles, I find myself slowly pimping my style. You can change your style while keeping your gear btw. My dude is wearing more gear than what is showing up. You can lock it so you never look any different to your first guy too. Most of mine is my original costume. New shoulders and gloves though (I couldn't get my gloves to go back) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the feeling you get from a Soder Cola Classic! *The fact that I was actually able to find Sho Kosugi giving a thumb-up has made my day. Even if it is so recent that I don't recognize him.

Kovach_ Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) Sho Kosugi, the taiko ninja actor. Should have been a villain. Go into the social tab then just click add friend heh, it's only available for premium users, what a shame... That's weird, i can add friends and i'm a free user. Did you go into that guild making thing? F4 is for friends and shit. Edited November 4, 2011 by Kovach_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredEffinChopin Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 (edited) Yeah, he was more typical in that role. He's always a good guy (is it possible for a ninja to be anything but a guided assassin?) in my eyes though, for all the Ninja Theater Presents films. Which were ironically (as I recall) mostly Chinese, with about zero chance of seeing a Ninja. Still though, the weapons presentations were cool. And it relevant, as most of those weapons he would present were Chinese in origin anyway. Edited November 4, 2011 by FredEffinChopin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant that as I get more gear, therefore unlocking more styles, I find myself tempted to make the costume more complex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredEffinChopin Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 ........ Login queue? Is this for real? Does this go on in other MMOs? I'm roughly 2400th in it... I hope they don't expect people to subscribe to a game where they have to wait on a virtual line to play each session. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 A lot of MMOs do it, especially near launch. (and going F2P is like a re-launch) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredEffinChopin Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Ugh... I might not be as annoyed if the game started after I waited in the queue, but nope. This is my third time looking at a load screen for 10-15 minutes (following the queue) while listening to the sound of (presumably) the area it's trying to load. I don't think the average console gamer is as patient as I am in these matters, and a first impression like this will be a last impression for many. They're going to have a hard time convincing most people to pay $15 for legendary access. It's hard enough to introduce MMO concepts to gamers that aren't familiar with the genre, but when the first one they're treated to is an entry queue without a guarantee of entry even after waiting... I wish them the best of luck. For my sake as well as theirs, as this is a game I might see myself paying even that high price for, at least for a month or two at some point, provided they iron out basic issues like this.... And here is something new! I just got a disconnected screen. As I typed the last sentence. Good night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toxicitizen Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 Still haven't been able to get the PC version to not crash as soon as I launch it, but I should be getting my new HDD this week, so I should be able to play on PS3 after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My laptop could probably run it shittily, but it gets hotter than hell when I game, and I don't want to ruin it because... well, it's my laptop. Anyway, glad I'm not THE only person here who will be doing this console-side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Heart Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Man, no way would I want to download that thing twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Same. It's pretty big, 26GB purely for comparative purposes is not something I'd want to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Jack Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Well let me put it like this...does there seem to be any big advantage to the mouse/keyboard scheme? I don't have a whole lot of space on my laptop's HDD and 26 GB is a lot for me. My ps3, however, has lots of space, but if I'm gonna be crippled by controls or communication then fuck it.

Hot Heart Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I am using a gamepad on PC. Don't think I'd like K&M. Plus, a lot of the design of the game is focused on console anyway. The only downside would be trying to type, but if you've got a headset for talking (although not available for Free members) or a USB keyboard (6 text chat messages per 30 seconds for Free members) you should be alright. Spending the $5 and becoming Premium allows proximity voice chat if you are playing with other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredEffinChopin Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Actually, after checking the ftp features, I decided to try mic chat anyway last night, just in case, and it worked perfectly fine. I couldn't use proximity chat, but I was able to get into chat channels with my friends. I don't know if they screwed something up on their end, but I'm not gonna complain about it =) As far as other communications go, I've been playing with my kb plugged in, but the nature of this game in the early stages doesn't really seem to require any kind of real communication so far. I'm sure when high-lvl parties go to get shit done some more coordinating will be necessary, but for right now my kb rarely gets used.

deanb Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Actually, after checking the ftp features f2p/F2P. ftp is a network protocol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredEffinChopin Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 lol I felt weird typing ftp to represent it, but for some reason f2p didn't occur to me. I don't pay enough attention when others type =p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enervation Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) I'm downloading it now. I should be in the game in a few hours; depends on how moody my connection wants to be today. UPDATE: i'm stuck in an eternal loading screen. This happen to anyone else? Edited November 7, 2011 by Enervation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VicariousShaner Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 One thing to note between deciding console/PC is that there is no cross platform play, so you would not be able to play with us cool people if you went PS3. Eneration, either wait a very very long time or try re-logging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
