Researching drives me mad. Do you have *any* idea how much researching I used to do on tricia?

But speaking of tradeskillers... assuming I dont just quit NC all togeather...

Any suggestions of things I should do with the 6 free character slots I have? What is the most fun I can have with those using a 56k and a bad videocard?

The most fun involves a live chicken, some cool whip, and a weed eater.

Could always get back into Counterstrike and TFC...

Just FYI, fellas, she's running a Ge3 Ti500 with I think 64M.

You could make a droner tank, a barter PPU, a glider pilot/repairer/constructor spy, a melee/repair/recycle/vhc PE...start playing with funkiness and just come up with something unique and trippy. Maybe they'll slightly lower reqs on PPU stuff and enable PEs to rez again..

...or you could..... quit...

*smacks Techi* Shush you :P
Vhc PE could be fun, or a pure tradeskiller who always stays in the city, I'd stay out of P1 tho :P considering P1 takes my machine from 80+ fps in P2, P3 and P4 to 5-10 fps if there are more than about 5 ppl in front of medicare :roll:

Why not? I did. I've entered the 12 step program to overcoming Neocron addiction.

Step 1: Buy WoW

They said the servers are regionalized for the launch. After the server populations have settled down a bit they will remove that restriction and allow you Euro's to play in the US and vice versa.

well then lets hope that the population is settled rather fast because after I created my char on a european server i'm sure as hell not moving to another one to have to do all the grinding all over again
actually i'm not sure how it works in WoW but i'm pretty sure I don't want to start a new char after playing a month or so

Or are they talking about migrating characters so that we can log in on any server we want with an already developped character?


I still have to wait 2 days before i'm able to pre-order the damn thing :(
