Other MMO's we have played / Headstart Key?

« on: August 27, 2009, 08:34:48 AM »

Just wondered if any of you guys that are still gonna play this (not you naysaying doomsmiths... ) have had any form of headstart key through yet?

I've got two pre-orders on the go, one from Play, and the other from Game. While I had the open beta/pre-order key through from both on the same day, I've not smelt a whiff of the headstart key. Are they one in the same I wonder?

Thoughts?

Other MMO's we have played / Super Group Name

So, have we decided what name our SG is going to support in CO? Hands of Justice? Or something else?

Main reason I'm asking is I'm photoshopping up a sig for various forums, and thought about putting our SG name in there.

The Dog & Duck / A Toy Technological Terror

It may be frivalous, and it may be a waste of money, but I just had to do it.

I went ahead and bought the Lego Death Star. Not the arty farty model one, but the bad boy with 24 minifigs!

So, here are a few piccies to wet your appetites:













And finally, a little boy who insists on playing with it/destroying it at least 10 times a day! If the Rebel Alliance had this weapon, the Empire would have bee defeated long ago!

Star Wars: The Old Republic / Which Class?

« on: July 23, 2009, 10:53:09 AM »

So, anyone decided what class they want to go with yet?

Kurtt will be my main, and he'll be Jedi without a doubt.

Other than that, Trooper of BH looks good. Its a shame BH is going to be faction specific (Sith in this case), as I enjoyed being a Rebel BH back in my SWG days

Anyone playing/played this recently?

I picked up the new Architect edition off Steam the other day, and have so far levelled a super hero called Wraithwing to level 8. Fun so far, and a nice break from the fantasy themed games I've played to death recently.

If anyone fancies giving it a go, I'm on the Union server

Cheers,

Kurtt

Lord of the Rings Online / Dare I Try It?

« on: January 13, 2009, 03:22:12 PM »

Greetings chaps,

Been thinking of giving Lotro another go while waiting for the rest of THF to catch my DK up gear-wise over in WoW.

Its looking good from what I've seen. Is it worth giving it another go? Kurtt was 45 when I last played, so won't be starting totally from scratch.

Also, where can I get an updated client? Is it worth just getting the Mines of Moria expansion instead of pratting about with downloads?

Cheers,

Kurtt

Well, I figured it was about time our forum got one of these

Post piccies of your 40K armies here, or simply chat about what you like collecting/what your going to collect next and other stuff. 

I'll start with a couple of shots of my current project, my Dark Angels:

Warhammer Online / Hurry Up!!!

« on: September 19, 2008, 06:01:52 PM »

Blinking takes ages to install this game! Am on my lappy at my parents. Yyan has just bought the game, so am hogging his client CD's.

We should both be seeing you online shortly

Warhammer Online / So, what do we think then?

« on: September 17, 2008, 10:28:11 AM »

Well, despite my initial CTD issues, which seems to have settled down, I've really been enjoying myself in the last few days,

How have you guys been finding it?

One thing I have noticed, is the need to RvR and Scenario. In closed, I never bothered with scenario's, mainly due to the massive queue times, and didn't bother too much with open world RvR quests. This really gimped my levelling, as I reached the second half of tier 2 and found myself too low for everything.

This time round, I'm level 9 before hitting the second half of tier 1, and have full green reknown gear.

Moral of the story? RvR

Warhammer Online / Oh Dear...

« on: September 15, 2008, 11:53:22 AM »

Chaps,

I'm not going to be playing WAR until they can get this damn CTD issue fixed. I've tried updating everything, and the problem still occurs. As such, the game is unplayable for me at this time.

I'm very annoyed over this, as I had no problems during Closed and Open Beta. Only when the game goes live does this sort of crap kick in! Not sure what that says about Mythic/GOA 

So, until they sort it, or even acknowledge the issue, I'll not be wasting my time. Sorry folks.

Cheers,

Dan

Lord of the Rings Online / Re-installation Question

« on: May 08, 2008, 09:44:48 AM »

Right, I've finally found my game DVD (at my bro's), and am re-installing.

Any of you guys know whether I can copy over my old game directory into my new one to benfit from all the updates?

Lord of the Rings Online / Still here...

« on: May 04, 2008, 03:50:24 PM »

Hey guys,

Just thought I'd put a post up detailing my absence from Lotro over the last few months.

I've been swamped by RL issues, work and a new PC that I'm still ironing the kinks out of. Plus, THF WoWside went through a bit of a management crisis, so I found myself flung back into officer stuff there. Been playing WoW a bit to, as the new content with patch 2.4 is pretty fun. Also, Mario Kart Wii just keeps begging me to be played...

Anyway, sorry for not being around, and leaving it so late in letting you know. I'll be re-installing Lotro at some point this week, so keep an eye out for me.

Cheers,

Kurtt
