I went through this trying to find an explanation for why LoD looks like a game from early last decade, but I ended up discovering your tie-in DC comic series instead. I wonder how that collaboration came about.

Looks like their report bot got a new tag to look out for.

maybe they are referring to 2.0 hitting the normal servers next year instead of PTU?

They might be referring to a forums upgrade.

Translating to console shouldn't be too hard, they already can store credit card information on the account, right?

This is exactly the kind of thing they're promising, and WWII Online was doing the same thing. Even if they made it work this way, they're running way off the deep end of the cost to benefit ratio. Spending 99.999% of the development time making a system that will occasionally manifest in something like you've described %0.001 of the time if the planets align, and the player might not even notice.

See also, Hideo Kojima's true to life bucket of procedurally generated ice that melts realistically in MGS2.

fake edit: They removed it because it was a) stupid, b) never noticed, and c) it took up crazy resources for a PS2.

I thought only a fraction of CIG were UK based? If the bulk of their staff are in the UK, why the gently caress is Sperg HQ in the US?

Hollywood isn't in the UK, duh.

Imagine what shitizens will do when they realize CIG (and by extension, themselves) paid for SA accounts, if there are hired shills actually in this thread :allears:

Papa Dolvak is in the house.

This was a couple pages back, but as someone with metal allergies, I find Dolvak's use of the term 'metal illness' as an offence.


Fake edit: or a new garage band name.
