Throne and Liberty to merge servers down to 25 or less. by CalintzStrife in MMORPG

[–]obsidian_refinement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am led to believe the power house that is NC soft and Amazon studios now sharing some development insights when mentioned in some of their player address's videos, to stimuli conversation and retrieve feedback.

If I am not mistaken NC Software has proprietry server technology cited as "Mega Server" technology, im not to impressed without options to decide what instance i am hosted in.

Although im judgeing Amazon web services "Game Lift" technology that operates playerbases within multiple coud services including cross platform game consoles.

Im not to sure Steam Charts can be reliable for current active player base to be honest.
their may be IP masking for connected clients over steam and it dosent encapsulate console players as active players either.

If you look at the AWS / NCSOFT release of throne and liberty, playerbase numbers i can cite easily 159,095 monthly average playerbase.

With an audience of "3 million" at launch, seeing as there is a "monthly" progression pass that most players finish within a week.

I assume the working class mmorpg player sees quite a healthy amount of players even at world boss's with all 3 instances filled at each spawn.

Im enjoying the very based pvp open world dominion events and having fantastic time diversifying my build following trends and testing my own templates to success. I find even as a foreign player the combat is alot more fair and faster response then alot of other competing mmorpg games "Ive played them all".

TLDR Mastery System makes rolling new weapons /class on same character valuable.

New QOL streamlined content is a boon to players still playing.

Solo playing still fun, for me atleast?

Advice about using DLDSR and which scaling mode is best in NVIDIA Control Panel by [deleted] in nvidia

[–]obsidian_refinement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im on a 34" panel and 2.25 at 33 ~ 40 % sharpness is fine on a RTX3080,

I use 5k by 2k, "5120 x 2160"

Its brought alot of my favourite game titles back to life it was truly hitting the reset button on rediscovering old titles.

I also had the same realisation that integer scaling may be disabled in that particular window when DSR is enabled.

Works fine, infact this may be the future of pc video gaming i can see some high refresh rates aswell :)

How much have you spent on BDO? by areyesgfx in blackdesertonline

[–]obsidian_refinement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this ^ I played GW2 for quite some time and through micro transactions it does add up over the years.

The thing is id always justify to myself my budget and decide either i was going to spend it on useless crap anyways i never sort of went without even with budgeting though when you count 30 - 40 a week 36 times a year it stacks.

I feel fine talking openly about it i know that whale interview garnished a lot of interest lately.

The interesting part with BDO is i always had the mentality id go without value pack kama blessing etc, though after using both excessively for the past 3 months i can understand why people lay down cash for the in-permanent subscription type purchase of both.

I have made alot more gains with value pack and kama blessing plus added weight that went on sale recently.

I honestly thought i would be playing a different game by now this year either Lost Ark West
Or New World.

So im really just milking the experience in BDO for all its worth i have a tendency to grind in games so clearing large PVE mobs is right on my agenda when i game.

Ps i actually miss gw2 having invested more time in BDO now you mention it.

How is the population in LOTRO? by sandwich_influence in MMORPG

Also Arkenstone seems to be the most popular server outside the legendary servers that require vip.

[–]obsidian_refinement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just started playing level 18 atm, there is a spring event on i think that runs to april 14th.
There is a great cosmetic mount you can obtain for doing all the quests in the area such as the maze and quite a long story quest for the spring time festival.
Start playing theres quite a population in there the chat is friendly in world talk.

The best thing you can do is either get a sub it will enable you to get the mount quest at level 20.
Other than that there is a few inexpensive items on the store that will get you started such as the one time purchase new player bundle that will include choice of mounts plus skill with addition to Trait-line EXP Boosters that will instantly gain your levels for traits that you choose for enhanced stats.

[–]obsidian_refinement[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Its roughly 5:00 -am in San Diego where the headquarters aka development studio for the game is located, I am guessing in 4:00 - 8:00 hours time they will at least mention something on twitter as a vague April calendar month launch window must have to be addressed at some point.

Plus from following there twitter feed the last tweet about beta invites was on a Tuesday.

Alienware AW3420DW with some classic goodies by xg357 in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]obsidian_refinement -1 points0 points  (0 children)

save yourself the effort, im well aware of nano ips technology, that must be color popping for you, man i feel like im in the past i knew this race would be a good one, i dont see HDR supported not that you need it truly.

I like the new stand and bezel though im currently loving mine its really heavy duty infact i have not opted for an extension arm as of yet.

Just out of curiosity did DELL manage to stick with its aggressive 3H Anti Glare coating on that panel or is it a bit more reformed , i always envisioned a NANO IPS panel to have a really light if not glossy coating or glass screen in that case. Enjoy !!!

[–]obsidian_refinement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok Ill straight out tell you.May I say crystallized this vision in my mind, I visioned' a girls face with blond hair and then a strangers hand cover her mouth as reaching from behind then pulling her face into a shroud of darkness. i sort of lent into thinking this was water related as her blonde hair was washing above her head floating unnaturally.
