Still a little confused on how you get skills now.

Damn what's with the ranger pets. They just run around attacking everything nonstop. Well, until they die....

Memph, you can use the key Seg gave me (if you can get ahold of him). My PC is wasted and in the shop being fixed, thus I can't make the beta weekend event or even get access to the key.

If you don't want it or can't get it, though, I'll still use it next weekend. I jsut figured someone should get some use out of it since I can't. :/

I'll try to get word to Seg. Was playing with him last night.

My pre-made combat character is called Quake Guy

Having read your posts about looking through gaming mags makes me wonder if I don't have a copy of a CD key from one of my mags already. I'll look through there and try to dig sommat up. Wait a bit with that key, though.

...sorry i couldnt play that much, got distracted by something shiney (beer)...

Post by **Transient** » Mon Feb 21, 2005 9:13 am

No dice on the mag, Memph. Maybe I'll make it next weekend if the key still works.

GGs all, had a fantastic time (and quite a lot of it too

).

Most of my screenies this weekend were taken more for the visuals rather than being group shots.
They're all 1600x1200, mostly with no UI visible. All taken with 4x AA.
As they're so big, I'll post links instead (not 56k friendly):

The Blasted Lands

The Ruins of Old Ascalon

A Green Vista

In the Jungle

Thrud & Flossy at the Lakeshore

Mysterious Monoliths

Our First Rotscale

Blissful Shore

Who's this then?

"SMILE!"

Waterfalls

I hope to have mine up soon.

I swear, when it comes out, i may well have to clone myself to play both WOW and this...

Very different styles of games though - WOW's more of a consistant world populated with enemies, and GW seems to be more "dungeon" based, where you go in with your group and never see anyone...

Not sure which ethic is best really - many's the time in WOW i've randomly bumped into someone, saved their ass/been saved during a hard mission, then teamed up on the enemy with them...

Should be interesting when GW comes out properly
