I just found it out. Hack and slash Online only RPG which is also free.


I watched the videos they have put so far and... I must say that i am intrigued.

The game features a truly unique skill system clicky

The game will have a very strong competitive spirit click

And in terms of level design looks pretty good so far. There are large open areas where you can maneuver in big battles, and small narrow chockes in crypts.

The theme of the RPG is dark-ish.

It looks pretty dynamic. Yes, it does painfully look like Diablo, but the game will come out in the first half of 2011 waay before Diablo III. (So every Diablo hard core fan, like myself has enough time at least to try it.)

Hm.. the weakest part of the game, from what I have seen so far is the visual one. The trailer shows some very good level designs, and an impressive lightning system, but the color pattern they have chosen is gray-ish. Sure, it does give a tone of atmosphere(since like I said above the game has a dark theme) but overall it isn't anything mind blowing.

Then again, for a free game, the graphics are extremely good. (keyword is free)

EDIT: Register on here: http://pathofexile.com/ and get into the beta (when it starts that is)

EDIT EDIT: Apparently there are randomized levels and items.

The skill system is unique, but that automatically make it good? Maybe not, for example when you go as parties it might come out as harder to find your needed class calls since all of the skills are based on drops and only the core skills come from NPCs, it could mean that a warrior could completely change his play-style go caster while he is supposed to be a warrior. I really want to see what they do with the skill system since its still only in beta.

Actually never mind.

"Players can use any items or skills, providing they have enough of the relevant attribute requirements. There is the flexibility to dabble in unaligned attributes in order to use off-class skills and items. However, it is generally more efficient for players to invest in the attributes appropriate to their character class."

Elder, in the video the guy said that the gems will require certain attributes, so the higher tier spells for warriors will require a lot of str, wich the other classes won't have :p

EDIT: Nevermind... :D:D

    So what it really is me trying to implement some kind of better site navigation not change the whole theme of the site
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats

    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
