[QUOTE=Trogdon;35721049]how does that company have more money than EA?[/QUOTE] microtransactions
[QUOTE=Sanius;35721074]microtransactions[/QUOTE] that's really crazy though, i would have never thought a company like that would have the money to bid on a company that's been a big name publisher since the 90's
within the week EA will say the rumors are false and the stocks won't go down because of it allowing EA to continue with the path they have set.
[QUOTE=barttool;35720337]Nexon is horrible. I remember why I stopped playing Maplestory: So basically, I had bought loads of cash points for the game over time, then one day, Nexon decides there's too much fake, hacked cash so[B] they decided to wipe all cash from maplestory and start again.[/B] WHAT. THE. FUCK.[/QUOTE] Holy shit man, that just totally fucking sucks, and beyond retarded on Nexon's side.
How exactly do Nexon plan on buying EA? They only have 1.5 billion, EA is worth over 5 billion. At most they can buy 1/5th of EA's shares, hardly "buying EA".
It's amazing how in recent years with multiplayer being so much bigger, companies can squeeze way more out of you so you can keep up, when it used to be $20 for a a whole lot of stuff. (Blue Shift/Opposing Force, Sims series was huge on this.)
farmville on cryengine 3??
[QUOTE=BrickInHead;35725312]farmville on cryengine 3??[/QUOTE] Get the CryEngine version of Combat Arms! Only $0.99 per day or $4.99/week! *it's absolutely free to download but will only work on accounts which have rented the abilities :v:
Let them take it and then make bankrupt.
If Google wants to get into the gaming industry, they should be the ones to buy EA. And therefore fix every single bloody problem that they caused in the process of doing so. Origin would probably end up being embedded into the Chrome browser.
I've never had a bad experience with Nexon, so far. The NA Nexon isn't so bad. Guild Wars is handled nicely and it's 'cash shops' are cosmetic shit only, or unlocking skills for PvP early, stuff like that... The new NA version of Aion Free to Play is the best Free to Play Model I've seen to date The only real issue I have with Nexon is what they did to Richard Garriot and Tabula Rasa Actually. I think I'm thinking of NCSoft Fuck Nexon
Nexon may do some shitty things, but Vindictus is an amazing game. It's the only MMO I've played where the combat didn't make me want to shove nails up my nose. Plus it used the source engine.
[QUOTE=Baldr 2.0;35726625]Random question does Maplestory still run in 640x480.[/QUOTE] it doesn't run in 1920x1080 yet if thats what your asking (played it like a month ago to see what the fuss is about, it's a ok game but not for me)
Well that really sucks to see happening. I for one hope EA is finished and am hoping that Crytek can free themselves from the evil grasps of EA. Also, did anyone else get this urge to download Maplestory? :v
Nexon is alright at least as far as vindictus goes
Well then, good thing I stopped buying EA games a long time ago. I mean like I'm shocked people are still buying EA stuff after all of that SecuROM garbage with spore came along.
[QUOTE=Phloon;35720043]If this can stop EA from trying to pull every last dollar out of our wallets, I'm in.[/QUOTE] Oh it will stop EA from trying to exhaust you from every single dollars alright. But nexon takes the wallet aswell.
[QUOTE=Phycosymo;35727886]Well then, good thing I stopped buying EA games a long time ago. I mean like I'm shocked people are still buying EA stuff after all of that SecuROM garbage with spore came along.[/QUOTE] how bad is that crap anyways? I always did want to play spore
[QUOTE=Trogdon;35721145]that's really crazy though, i would have never thought a company like that would have the money to bid on a company that's been a big name publisher since the 90's[/QUOTE] EA stock has been at a record low recently
[QUOTE=Baldr 2.0;35728441]Back when I played it was locked to only 640x480, needless to say that was a horrible resolution to use and needed to use tools that could be marked as hacks to run it in windowed mode (slightly better to look at). [/QUOTE] Uhh, It has never been 640x480. Even the Korean betas from 2002 ran in 800x600. But they did add in official support for window mode and 1024x768.
Same guys who did Combat Arms? Jesus fuck, hide EA somewhere, or they'll turn everything into a pay2win rent-a-thon!
