[QUOTE="gaming25"]o then what are the options, cutting the dept of education wont fix the problem, or drastically improve it. Unfortunately we need to go with something that shows a pay off if we fund it a lot more.Wasdie

What is your basis on that when he has clearly proved the opposite? We were doing better before the Dept. of Education was created. It has done nothing but helped drag our school system down. Do you want to keep funding and expanding something that is clearly broken and not needed in the first place?

Ever thought about that fact that it isn't the US getting worse, but the rest of the countries getting better ? Maybe they do invest in their education system. I mean, you can't really use a 60's example compared to now and not take the other factors that play a role into account.

Kindof dissapointed with Dark Souls. I hoped the difficulty would come from the monsters in the game but ''difficulty'' these days seems to be a severe lack of safepoints. Not to mention 15 mins of backtracking because you did not know the abilities of a specific mob.

Pity really, i hoped on something more.

Or is it going to get better later on (stopped after the taurus boss on the castle wall)?

Man, alot of you guys have so many restrictions. I've got: Fiber Unlimited usage (downloading 35+ gigs a day sometimes) No supervision. Live in Europe tho, things might be a bit different.

Man what a nonsense. Producers are whining about the lack of power in consoles as it is. Seriously who wants a new consoles that is the equivalent of a 2006 machine, when the pc has shown that there is so much more. These things are supposed to be build to last, not to be overtaken by handhelds and the new ipad in 2013.

cry all you want, deny all you want, bash all you want, you cant change facts. SWTOR = wow copy. GW2 = improvement to mmorpgs-

Krelian-co

Time to play Devil's Advocate (note these are not my opinions for most of the part, unless I had a really bad day).

10. So it may end up being polished. But a polished mess is still a mess. (who said it was a mess, this can be applied to anything and you are assuming things)
9. The Music seems great so far. But even the best of artists have had their let-downs. (again assuming, if someone has made great scores most of his carreeer is safer to assume the next one will be great, not the contrary))
8. So self mentoring essentially. Everquest 2 did this like a year ago. Nothing new here. (no one is saying gw2 will have absolutely everything new, but its a good system if well implemented)
7. So I will have plenty of moments then where I run around with nothing to do I guess. Boring. Besides, I really doubt many of the things, you save the town to have it invaded after an hour again? (no, it means you can be doing the normal stuff and something else happens, thinking you have to sit doing nothing while waiting for something to happen is just a biased and fail argument)
6. "The combat in this game is going to be seriously awesome"... assuming lag doesnt ruin it. (assuming again, you said it, it lag can ruin any game online no?)
5. No Monthly Fee, monthly fees do help keep some trolls and such out. So no monthly fee is not always as good as it seems. (you still have to buy the game, whos gonna buy a game to troll? besides they will have some system for lower lvls not spamming others)
4. They do look amazing, but who knows, they may just show the amazing parts. Oh and these areas might just be interesting for the first 3 times or so you explore them and then the scale just means it takes a long time to get to where you want to go. (assuming again, its even self explanatory, you are assunming they just have these zones they showed but from the videos ive seen most of them are)
3. PvP, but only in a few areas. And if one person just isnt that good at PvP, what if he gets harassed by his own server for that. "*insert insult*, you are bringing the server down." (play on a non pvp server then, problem solved)
2. Less skills, dumbing down? Instead of managing 15 cooldowns I now only have to worry about 10. (dude i dont have time to think for you always, did you not see every char can have various weapons, so you can have many skills and weapons for differents situations, and you can combine them as you like? is better than having your archetype only skills, plus the sills are significant, just check their page, not your hit + add dmg stuff)
1. Ugh, I really wish I could stop playing Devil's Advocate now... but I have to go on, sigh. So, if I come to GW2 expecting to be the one take all the damage or heal others I will be sorely disappointed. There are people out there who love playing tanking roles and people out there who love playing healing roles. This is alienating them somewhat. (did you really miss the point or are actively making questions that shows how little attention you have? you can be healer and you can be the tank, you are just not chained to only that, if you use sword and shield and pick the defender clas you will be the tank but if there is 2 tanks and no healer, you switch to your staff and robes and go heal)

Oh and I have a video to show (though killing party members is not true anymore), and a article to show.

most your points dont even make any sense, use an absurd argument to answer, assume things or can be applied to every mmorpgs

Indeed, but he does have a point about the lag tho, there is no way they will be able to keep all those promises in a lag free environment. Blizzard couldn't do it, doubt arenanet can.

Besides, by just looking at the movie i could see about 5 different things that sounds interesting now, but will probably not work out all that well in the end. I mean, dodge rolling every move? That will be a chore after a while.

Definately gonna give it a try tho, they really tried to make something special.

The average Russian male has a life expectancy of 55 or something. Most of this due to drinking (bad) vodka. Anything that gets them away from it is good in my book. :P
