Moved….
February 1, 2009
Well, I wanted to have some creative freedom with this blog, but the wordpress hosting didnt allow for it unless I paid for the service, so I installed my own wordpress on my own hosting that I use also for my guild. The new url is http://thebluescribes.manusmutati.com/ so please update your blogrolls/sites with the new URL. Hope to see you there!
Just a Quick FYI
January 31, 2009
For those people that will be returning to my blog to read it, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are my days off, and usually I’m playing WAR or some other game, so don’t expect anything on those three days. Now there will be many exceptions, when I am bored, or just something that I really need to get out into the open, but otherwise I will generally not post anything new on these 3 days. Just thought I would let you know.
MMORPG.com Interview: Zone Domination System
January 29, 2009
MMORPG.com has an interview on what is to come for the RVR system in the game. It seems that the Zone Domination system that Paul hinted at earlier is really what its cracked up to be. I am sure this will flood the ORvR lakes ten-fold and will punish the side that tries to defend by not defending, More after the break.
Call to Arms & Night of Death
January 29, 2009
Well, it seems the news about todays announcement was true and they are still coming. To start off the announcements, we get one that almost everyone has been waiting for. The Slayer and Choppa, along with announcements about the Night of Death event and the new content expansion called Land of the Dead. The news and comments after the break.
Addon Review: Rose Colored Glasses & State of Realm
January 28, 2009
Due to the huge day tomorrow with announcements and lots of supposedly great news, I will hold off any critiques of the game till I hear what happens tomorrow, so actually expect a few articles tomorrow that are not addon related, but for now, I will do some addons. Also for FYI, I myself am an addon author, but I will not review my own addons, if you want to use them, go to curse, and look me up. I’m sure the curious bunch can figure my username on there, its quite easy. Ok, without further adue, I present to you Rose Colored Glasses and State of Realm. People that suffer from Color-Blindness should look at Rose Colored Glasses especially.
Addon Review: First Two, Dammaz Kron & Kwestor
January 27, 2009
Along with critique and fun stuff, I will be reviewing lesser known addons to give them an audience. Aiiane is awesome, but there are many great addons of equal quality that are never mentioned. I will even do now abandoned addons in case some gets interested and forks/makes a similar addon. Dammaz Kron and Kwestor reviews are after the break.
Current Issues
January 27, 2009
Warhammer is still a young MMO and with that comes a slew of bugs gameplay issues that I will touch on briefly and then maybe elaborate in a future post. I will touch on combat, ORvR, keeps, fortresses, dungeons, bilities, and a few other things. Read the full article after the break.
Stats
January 27, 2009
This was a post made by another tester during the 1.1 test when they were making the massive armor set changes. I greatly agree with this even though I will probably never see it in game. Stats should have been done like this to begin with, makes itemization easier and better for the players. The post is after the break.
Time To Kill
January 27, 2009
I posted this during the 1.1 testing on the beta test forum, and I still believe it holds true. I will add additional notes/changes since then below the post. The rest is after the break.
Welcome & Disclaimer
January 27, 2009
Well, as part of the Age of Blogging month, I decided to make a blog. A bit late in the month, but finally thought it was about time. Hope you enjoy the articles and other interesting things.
Now that the pleasantries are over, I would like to put up a disclaimer that I have very strong opinions, and usually they differ greatly from everyone elses. Whether you agree or not with them, please don’t make too big of a deal out of it. I will talk about things that are touchy subjects related to balance, classes, and gameplay. Please just take the articles as they are and go with them. If you want to say something, whether negative or positive about the post, feel free to do so, but don’t blow it out of proportion or get mad at me for ignoring the comment, because once you get me started, I will debate with you for hours upon end, till I either convince you, or we stop out of frustration. Thats my disclaimer. Enjoy the site 🙂
P.S. I go by Daegalus on pretty much the rest of the internet, so if I paste stuff that I have posted elsewhere under “Daegalus” please know it is my writing, and I am not stealing anything.
