Well said!Quote from "treckin" »SC2 is sure to blow the socks off the rest of the PC gaming market; MW2 is nothing. You thought millions of sweaty teenagers lined up for that 3peat, wait until SC2 hits the shelves. It wil be the true return of PC gaming.
People fail to realize that PC gaming is NOT dead, blizzard is just sleeping.
Who else remembers when SC:BW and D2LOD and WCIII AND WOW were all top hits?
You used to be able to type a random string of keys "asdfadfhadfgsDFASFDH" as the gamename in d2, and it would already exist!!
or a run would say "dankbaal-002" 1 person. When you join, it would be full.
Remember having to wait anxiously for hte joingame list to refresh? Now its just 15 games, 8 bots and 7 people looking for ptorches. -
Nov 19, 2009IceBlade posted a message on More Hopes Dashed, 1.13 Delay Going StrongFG = Forum Gold. I have an account on d2jsp. You can sell d2 items or items in other games for virtual money (forum gold) and then buy items with the gold you obtain. It's like trading for runes. You trade an item for runes and then sell the rune for something you need. It's just a currency. You just use forum gold instead of runes. You sell stuff for forum gold and then buy what you need with it.Posted in: News
If you're like me and don't play D2 consistently 'cause of work, school, etc., you can sell out in one ladder season, go MIA for a few months and then buy back in. -

I wish they could implement some kind of a FG system in the battle net... but i guess thats a feature we wont see in d2. Maybe d3.
True but I want to play until then lol. I'll sell off some of my stuff I guess. It'd be cool if they did implement a fg system but I don't think it will ever happen.
Quote from "reform" »Can't believe they failed at making an increased stash size. Countless mods have achieved this, yet Blizz can't?
Like some others have said.. it's not necessarily that they can't do it. It's the fact that the server load would exceed capacity and that they won't spend the extra money to update servers for a 10-year-old game. -
Nov 19, 2009IceBlade posted a message on More Hopes Dashed, 1.13 Delay Going StrongGuess I won't sell my shit for fg just yet.Posted in: News

Except for perhaps the link bar at the top. The one we have now is rough and textured... rough and ready like prison sex... Oh yeah
Mockery said the graphics aren't done yet so I'm sure we'll be getting some sexy custom nav buttons.
So about the design. First let me say I love the positioning of the login box. Very nice. Not so sure I like the removal of the quick links. I personally don't use them very much but it's nice to have them there. They help organize things.
I'm looking forward to the new themed graphics of course but I have a suggestion. Considering this community is filled with talented artists, I suggest holding a graphics contest to let the members get a chance to design the background images. NOT the layout itself but just the graphics that will replace the defaults. And who knows maybe you'll end up with a bunch of cool themes.
The fonts are way too big. The banner will need an overhaul, which can also be a fan contest. Ads don't bother me. They're a necessary evil. And that one's kind of funny. -

Jul 7, 2009IceBlade posted a message on Win A Trip To BlizzCon!Posted in: NewsQuote from "Iscariot" »To answer it's a Canadian government thing, any prize that can be won by just pure luck must be accompanied by a relatively simple math question (along the line of"what is 2 + 3 * (12+9)?"). What I find even worse is that, as usual, Quebec with it's god awful laws makes it either too troublesome or impossible to allow us poor folks into these lovely sweepstakes.
I hope one of you love people win, and then gives us all a lovely log of how pampered you were :P.
We have to answer those questions if we win $2 on a scratch card or a free cheeseburger at Mickey D's. It's retarded. And yeah.. I'm from Quebec as well. Makes me want to kill whichever jackass made it impossible for me to win this - and other - contests. All my hopes flared for a minute.

He wrote a series about a fantasy world set after "The Great Wars," filled with magic and such. Then he wrote a new series based in our world where magic was starting to surface. And finally he wrote a series inbetween, connecting the two. So you get to read about our world falling apart and turning into a new world of magic. Pretty awesome. His stories are spread out over like 3000 years with the link connecting all of them being the magic and evolution of the races (Elves, Trolls, Dwarves, Gnomes, Man.) Quite different since you don't actually follow the characters through different books. Or if you do they're older and you're now reading about their grand children or decendents. Very good series.

Oh and am I the only one that feels bad for this kid? Gets up there to have some fun and enter a contest, falls and gets hurt, and you call him overweight or say he's probably faking it? He doesn't even look overweight. He looks like he has a bit of a belly. He's just a big guy. Man people piss me off.

Thanks for the offer, Nektu but I've been in Fallen Angels since 2001 so I'll be staying there. Not that I have much time to play anyways but yeah. I mostly play with old school members who I used to play Broodwar with back in the day. Good times good times.

I lol'd.
If I remember correctly you have to wait 2 mins if you try to join another game too fast and get failed to join game. Oh and I almost forgot. You can also get the failed to join screen if the server crashes and you lag out. This was happening a LOT last time I played due to people attempting to roll back the server.

For the temp ban you're only allowed 20 games an hour per cdkey set. Unless it's changed recently. So that's 20 games of 3 mins each. To get around this I bought an extra cdkey set and I just login on a different computer. You could also use a virtual machine to run a seperate install of D2 on your comp or there are programs to inject the second set of keys into your Diablo II install but some people prefer not to use said programs. Having two sets of keys gives me 40 games per hour. Plenty enough unless you're doing pindle runs or something.

I don't know about nvidia and intel but I do know that AMD bought ATI sooo yeah I'm willing to bet their cards work best with their own chips. As for nvidia or ATI.. like it's been said, it really depends on the card. If the game does run BEST on nvidia cards you probably won't notice the difference if you get a decent ATI card. What really matters is driver support so if Blizzard does develop their games on nvidia systems then I'm willing to bet nvidia will have out the best drivers first.
