At this point I'd just like to give some praise to DBG. They don't get much, so I'll redress the balance a bit I hope. I refused to play EQ...
Thread started in Feb. First dev response in June (and it was a fluff "continuing to look into it"...). I no longer play EQ. I quit 18 months ago...
Actually it was DBG doing the nerfing. The players pointed out the flawed maths that broke AC on pets. It was up to DBG to decide how to fix it. Eg...
I've been retired for well over a year, but I was in the CRT program for a few years. I was a rogue, but CRT was specifically stated not to be a...
I quit over 6 months ago (and still have no desire to return, so I guess this time I finally kicked the habbit permanently), but pop back to the...
Remember to consider the noise. I think if my stats recollection is correct, the standard deviation of a binary hit/miss chance is something like...
Aelfin, I used to use Tango! for the plots. The ability to resize them easily, to turn them into images quickly and to be able to compare any two...
The main boost from hStr was always attack based rather than the pitiful +dam, but that depends on the expansion. When AC levels went through the...
This will be the base melee hit maths. Nothing really new here, but it's good to see confirmation. On top of that the various single-hit skills (like...
I haven't seen them as no longer play, but is this lack of BS damage itself or lack of the BS skill mod? If the latter, the vulak dagger...
Did they never own up to what the problems were last time? Poor form if not! I said that during the last 2 month period of server instability,...
As the time approached I got more and more jaded by it all and the complete lack of any respect for the customers (no meaningful feedback, let...
Try 2 months (AB). The symptoms are really obvious there. There as some things which are handled internally within the cluster that comprises "the...
They sent a huge wide open message to the entire EQ community... >THIS< server is for people who don't cheat. The other servers? Well apparently...
The two points are not at odds with each other. I *personally* don't have an issue with the existance of the servers, but I can see very...
There is a difference between officially acknowledging something (p99) and actively endorsing it from the outset. When it was being developed SOE...
I am a coder and I fully understand APIs and the like. I still wouldn't employ someone who has hacked my product and actively cooperated with...
I got an "Unknown error" stopping me from connecting, repeatedly. It almost felt like using a pre OS-X mac! I have no evidence for this, but I...
AB is now reported as DOWN. (UK 20:21)
It's been answered - lag is back. Channels being very slow and AE rez not working now either. Edit: single target rez doesn't work either. It's...
