It's Friday evening. You decide that you'd like to rent a good Stephen
Baldwin movie. Unfortunately, when you get to the video store you find that
"Usual Suspects" is checked out. "Oh well," you think to yourself, "guess
I'll have to settle for a *bad* Stephen Baldwin movie instead." The video
store is your oyster, my friend, and who knows, you may find another pearl
amongst Stephen's work. It's worth a shot.
As you're roaming the aisles, life's cruel hand of fate guides you to "Dead Weekend." Sadly, you decide that you'll give it a chance, and you don't find out until it's too late that the title of the movie is a fitting description for any weekend spent watching this tripe.
The only thing going on in this movie is Stephen gettin' it on with five different female forms of an alien. The alien changes forms randomly, and sometimes she doesn't even know she has changed. Luckily for Stephen, she always shape shifts into a hot babe.
In the end, Stephen decides to leave the planet with his alien lover, but his former soldier colleagues feel he's a traitor and try to hunt him down. Oh the tension. Do you think Stephen would've still wanted to flee the planet with this alien if she started morphing into a Roseanne look-alike with a severe back-hair problem? I doubt it.
It's no bold prediction to say that I'll never watch this movie again. I have no problem watching movies that are so bad they're entertaining (Troll 2, a good number of Michael Paré movies), but this movie is so bad it's just BAD. The only way it could've been worse is if the alien shape shifted into Rosie O'Donnell every time. The acting was wooden and just horrible, there was no real story or action, and the music sounded worse than the midnight jam sessions I used to have on my $20 Casio when I was thirteen years old.
I was bored the entire movie, and I had to fight the temptation to hit "fast forward" harder than Mike D fighting for his right to party. But I can be a stubborn guy at times. I taped this movie, so I was bound and determined to watch the whole thing.
Watching the movie wasn't a total loss though. Yes folks, I actually learned a valuable lesson from this experience - I have really got to learn to be less stubborn.
I suppose if you enjoy the cinematic equivalent of a hammer repeatedly bashing you upside the brain for 82 minutes, then you might want to check out "Dead Weekend." Otherwise, avoid it at all costs. Literally. Spend money to AVOID seeing this movie if you have to.
Yeah, well... where to begin. All apologies for those viewers who wasted precious moments of their otherwise entertaining lives to view my miscreation. Like all movies, it started with an idea, (to create an Ed Wood like-masterpiece) and then of course... spiraled downwards. My writing partner at the time, Joel Rose (a marvelous novelist) cranked out the screenplay in three weeks of uninterrupted laughter (fueled by a recently arrived kilo of Nepalese hash, flaky & pungent). Lo & behold, our erstwhile agent (Gaby) at the William Morris Agency soon had hooked a producer for this confection. Mind you, we were not wholly unaware of these guys' reputations as liars and thieves but... having my head on backwards, due to a certain addiction to a young Polish actress, I decided to proceed none-the-less. Fearlessness is often a positive thing, but in this instance, it was cause for more suffering than I'd had. In retrospect, my favorite part of the experience (and folk, it WAS a nightmare) was the fun Stephen Baldwin and I had under what I hope is the worst conditions to make a picture. If you can let go of your expectations, and check out Mr. Depp in the brilliant "Ed Wood", who's various concoctions inspired this, you may see the fun of this "awful" movie. Peace.
The people responsible for this masterpiece knew EXACTLY what they were
doing! I can almost picture it: "What? No budget? Oh, well, let's have fun
anyway!" It's as if the director used this flick as an opportunity to
compile a resume' of styles (hence the random Homicide: Life on the Street
camerawork in one scene), and the actors were just there for a good time.
It's great.
Set in the "not-too distant future", martial law has been declared in The City in leu of a looming earthquake. However, the earthquake is merely a ruse, a story fed to the public so the TWF (True World Forces) can capture an alien spotted over the city some few days earlier. A TWF agent runs into the alien (a *hottie* who can change her apperance, while always remaining - of course - a hottie), and the two go off and, um, compare their respective physiologies (yeah, that's it). Other things happen, too, but who pays attention to plot nowadays?
The effects are poor, but it's the *little* things that really made this film. The chalk outlines. The phone book. The beautiful rooftop view of The City. The officer's club/strip joint/medicenter. These minute details were handled (fondled, even) with the utmost care, thus making this film the cinematic treasure it is. Don't be confused: this flick is BAD. But that's okay. It's as if the director & stars agreed to make as entertaining a film as they could with the $5.63 budget they had. I loved every minute of it!
The least talented Baldwin falls in love with a shape shifting alien
(the only vaguely interesting girl she turned into being "Honey, I
Shrunk the Kids" TV show mom, Barbara Alyn Woods). His partner, Sledge
Hammer is naturally against this. They both are members of the TWF &
that military unit is after this alien under the public guise of
looking for looters during an earthquake evacuation. The movie is
horrid. Tough to believe that the year it was made Tom Kenny had the
worst movie of his career, being this, and the BEST gig of his career,
being on Mr. Show.
Eye Candy: Afifi Alaouie, Jennifer MacDonald, Blair Valik, and Barbara Alyn Woods all provide boobage
My Grade: D
Where I saw it: Showtime Beyond
A made-for-cable supposedly science fiction bit of dreck starring the
least talented of the Baldwin brothers. (Only one of which has any
talent in the first place) We have bad acting, a terrible plot, cheap
sets, hokey dialog, bad direction, bad photography, bad editing, well,
everything was bad. Even the occasional topless scene could not rescue
this clunker. Although some of the women were attractive, the scenes
were poorly lit, poorly set up, poorly, well, you get the idea.
The best of the bad lot was Barbara Alyn Woods, and I feel bad for her that this is the only thing I've seen her in. She has undoubtedly done better. Avoid this movie like the plague.
I simply cannot believe I sat through this whole thing. Talk about
blind hope! Why did I think it would get better? I suppose I hoped that
Stephen Baldwin would somehow rescue this mess. Not that I've ever seen
him rescue any other lousy movie he's been in to date. I keep hoping
he'll pick a winner.
This is simply one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Lame, preposterous plot. Wooden acting. Lousy cinematography. I sure hope these actors got paid well for a potentially career ending fiasco.
I hereby formally nominate it if you ever compile an updated "Worst Movies" list!
The text on the video jacket lured me with false claims of a story of an
alien who shapeshifts her female form at will. The film was a complete
waste of its potential. The story: a crash-landed alien spends a weekend on
earth while waiting to be rescued by her own species. She switches form
several times, never at will, and once she doesn't even realize that she's
changed. She never repeats her form (except once, briefly). She never
impersonates anyone. Her shapeshifting isn't used to conceal her identity,
and plays almost no role in the plot. Basically, several times in the movie
the role of the alien switches to a different actress, who says, "Hi, I look
different now but it's still me." You wonder if maybe the actresses
couldn't make it for the entire filming so they had to time-share.
Despite the low budget, there could have been a lot of promise with the
film, such as having the alien use her shapeshifting as a disguise.
Instead, we have a tag-team of women who come and go, confusing the viewer
and leaving him wondering as the credits scroll up, "Has this movie started
This movie drained the energy right out of me the moment it came on and
never let up until it was over. I really should have just turned it
off. Not that I had much anticipation of this movie being any good in
the first place, but the possibility of some steamy T&A lured me in.
How stupid was I. This has to be one of the lowest budget movies I've
ever seen and will probably ever see. Low-budget doesn't necessarily
dictate a bad movie, but Dead Weekend is one of the countless bombs
people wonder how they got made in the first place.
Although this movie is being sold as a sci-fi adventure all it really amounts to is a low-budget T&A romp through wasteland. The story and cast are horrible with Stephen Baldwin obviously taking this on as a quick paycheck. Believe me when I say everything about this movie is bad beyond belief. Perhaps the ugliest part is even the T&A can't save this mess of a film.
Great use of Leslie West song 'Sea of Fire' and great music provided by Alice Cooper/Lou Reed guitar player Steve Hunter. Too bad such good music had to be wasted on such a terrible movie. But there is a certain amount of viewing pleasure derived from watching Stephen Baldwin's terrible acting.
Have you read the other comment I made on this film? If so, then I
apologize. I have since actually done some research on the director's
professional history (I know, I know, you can stop snickering), and have
discovered that some of my original assumptions were dead wrong. My
assumption was that this was his debut film.
Nope. Not even close.
In fact, he's been at the directorial helm many times, shelling out work ranging from mediocre to wonderfully bad time and time again.
Well, it certainly discredits his "effort", but I still really like the movie. It's so much fun to watch! It gets even better after you've seen it twenty or thirty times.

Minimum wage measure given more time for signatures
Posted: July 18, 2014 at 5:22 p.m.
LITTLE ROCK — Supporters of a plan to gradually raise Arkansas' minimum wage have been given 30 more days to circulate petitions and collect signatures after falling shy of the signatures needed to put their proposal on the November ballot.
Secretary of State Mark Martin's office on Friday told the Give Arkansas a Raise Now campaign that it had fallen short of the 62,507 signatures from registered voters needed to qualify the proposed initiated act for the November ballot. Martin's office said that more than 3,000 of the 64,135 signatures submitted by the group had been tossed out.
The proposal would raise Arkansas' minimum wage from $6.25 an hour to $8.50 an hour by 2017.
The group has until Aug. 18 to submit more petitions.

Looking forward to the journey with you all!

Transportation from Paddington Station to Harwich Port
Hello. I am taking a cruise with my elderly parents next month. They are not the most mobile these days and I was wondering how difficult is it to travel from the Paddington Station to Liverpool Station to Manningtree Station to Harwich. Are all those stations easy to get to? We will have lugguage and they are concerned if there are any stairs? They can not walk up and down stairs. We have never been to London, can you please explain the process to travel by train from Paddington to Harwich? And the cost to get there? Its a bit confusing online? Thank you very much

So my personality is available for rent on DVD.
*I prefer to call it an IRBD (Infer Red Beam Device).Apparently also C++. It's not that I'm really good at it it's that I seemed to pick some stuff up pretty easily. This was from modding Civilization 4. So either everyone who wants to try it should because it's easy, or I'm a natural.
(Movies) Serenity, Dark City, Gattaca, October
Sky, Dirty Work, Office Space, About A Boy, 12 Monkeys, K-PAX,
Changing Lanes, Donnie Darko, Mean Girls, Shoot 'Em Up, The Cabin
in the Woods, The Avengers.
(Music) I don't really listen to music. Probably because it always seemed so subjective. I can't even say why I'd like or dislike something so I've never been comfortable with music being what represents me to people. People are also more passionate about what they do and don't like and I didn't want to get into that. I don't like a lot anyway. I couldn't even fill the half gigabyte iPod shuffle model from 2005.
I did love the show Love Monkey though, which was about a guy who's an A&R rep for a music label. I'm a mystery.
So the only music I own is by comedians, like Bo Burnham and Garfunkel and Oats, and a DVD of Video Games Live which I saw twice in the same weekend.
(TV) Any show made by Joss Whedon, Buffy, (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, not the district attorney) Angel, Firefly, and Dollhouse, and most with Tim Miner, like Angel, Firefly, The Inside and Wonderfalls. I also like stuff from Bryan Fuller like Wonderfalls, Hannibaland Pushing Daisies. There's a lot of overlap on those shows because I've assumed people who make good stuff work with good people and I'm usually right. Continuing this over written list, Archer, The Daily Show, Community, House, The Soup, Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles, The 4400, Battlestar Galactica, Doctor Who, the various Star Treks, a couple of Gundam series. Veronica Mars, plus the movie which I helped fund and got two tee shirts for it. I also like Lost. Also a Canadian show no one has ever heard of, Charlie Jade.
(Games) Another invented category. I've played KoL, a.k.a Kingdom of Loathing (see my test). Civilization, Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger/Cross, Mass Effect. I also like Master of Orion, but each version manages to make some mistake that taints the game in some way. The World Ends With You is probably my favorite single game.
These lists are not comprehensive, or necessarily up to date.
I don't think I was supposed to take this question so literally or analyze it to this degree. Oops.
Also I'm bad at getting to messages so try not to forsake me if I take several days to reply.

If a chosen color and/or variety is unavailable at the time of shipping, Whole Blossoms will match the color and/or variety as closely as possible. Farm growing conditions, weather conditions, market demand, and other general forces may result in the unavailability of the flowers shown without notice. While online photos shown are representations of flowers available for sale, actual colors and specifications delivered may vary somewhat since flowers are a product of Mother Nature, different browser types affect the outcome of displayed photos, and computer monitors may show differences in detail, definition, contrast, brightness, and color.
Carefully unpack your WEDDING CENTERPIECES. They will need to be hydrated upon arrival.
Place your wedding centerpieces in clean, fresh water. Carefully remove leaves, thorns or foliage that fall under the water level (without tearing the stem skin) to avoid the build-up of bacteria.
Cut one inch of the end of the flower stem in a 45-degree angle (with a sharp knife NOT scissors) to allow water to be better absorbed through the stems.
After cutting the stem at an angle, quickly place the flowers in water since it only takes a minute for the stem to dry and seal up.
Keep flowers in a shaded, cool area (no cooler than 40F). Avoid placing flowers near hot surfaces or environments.
Do not keep your flowers in the refrigerator overnight since many food gases can cause a negative reaction in the flowers.

Flowers dropped off outside may expose flowers to excessive heat or cold which can wilt and/or kill flowers. Therefore, Whole Blossoms strongly recommends having someone available to assume receipt of flowers at the time of delivery.

Turn Around Surround: Galaxy Dancefloor
Danehy Park is the restoration of a site that originally provided the clay that most bricks in Cambridge and Boston come from. Forced by new environmental regulations to close, through the 1970s and 1980s, the City decided to invest heavily in its rehabilitation as a wonderful recreational park, which was sorely needed. / Located on top of the central mound, at the highest point in Cambridge, overlooking the rest of the park, is the Galaxy Dancefloor, a site of celebration. / The Galaxy is an image of whirling energy and offers a notion of continuity and cycling in opposition to the wasted materials beneath the mound but in harmony with the strangely re-used rubber now on top which has now become a celebratory Dance Floor with a great view overlooking Cambridge and beyond. / Courtesy Ronald Feldman Fine Arts, New York.

Fond du Lac Ave. art project; flamenco guitar performance
Ties that bind
Fond du Lac Ave. ties Milwaukee's downtown to the northwest side of the city. And the In:Site temporary public art project to be on display along the avenue from 17th to 37th streets hopes to tie together the people of those neighborhoods and the rest of the city. "Art on Fond du Lac" features thought-provoking installations that put a spotlight on the area and the needs of the people who call it home. Included in the projects are a sculptural urban greenhouse by George Jones; a tribute to Mattiebelle Woods, the first lady of Milwaukee's black press; and a painting on the avenue itself (at its intersection with Locust St.) by Reggie Baylor. »Read Full Article

This is a niche MMO, the rules were laid out, and the vision was shared.
But this got really popular really fast, and just looking at this forum alone you can see the influx of post wow era mmoers, who just started playing mmos after 2010 because their Xbox was getting old...are just complaining up a storm about this and that..
I want fast travel,
I want an action house,
I want dungeon finders, loot drops, tokens and quest, solo story lines, pretty much everyting that the kids who play assasins creed and black ops want. Tons of shallow scripted content and anti community systems that dont belong in MMOS.
It is soo easy to see how the devs that just want to sell copies can get sucked into this casual player crap. Becasue it just staggers me the amount of people who want an MMO to be just a socially shallow crapshoot.
MJ is a G*d damn savior.. Stick to your guns sir.
The way mmo's were: Community, Exploration, Character Development, Conquest.
The way mmo's are now : Cut-Scenes,Cut-Scenes, solo Questing, Cut-Scenes...

"Always borrow money from a pessimist. They won't expect it back."
I agree, there's a reason why people are anticipating this mmorpg (and mmorpg that isn't even in production yet) over the ones that will be released this year. It's old school, and that's what's been missing from mmorpg's. No quest/gear grinding with npc's with ! ? over their heads. Company's have forgotten why those old games like Ultima Online, DAOC, Asheron's Call are still dear to our hearts.
What happens when you log off your characters????.....
LOL, I love how it's always the "kids" that are ruining these games... reality is, most of those "kids" you are referring to are thirty-somethings or older. Most "kids" are playing FPS more than they are playing MMOs.
I want an action house,
I started playing MMOs with UO.
I want a goddamn auction house unless MJ can really really really really really spin shitty player shops as something worth a damn without causing me hassle when I want to buy something. I don't mind player shops in addition to an AH (a la Aion), but no AH = bad mojo.
I want dungeon finders,
Group finder / raid finder will be important for an RvR-based game where grouping is mandatory. Naturally, it should have selection criteria based on PvP aspects, like "keeps | skirmish", "small group | large group", etc. But, it will be important to improve the casual player experience.
solo story lines,
A solo story line will be mandatory in order to get any non-hardcore player into the game. I even want one and I consider myself a pretty avid fan of RvR.
However, it should be more of a "RvR bootcamp solo storyline" where the [optional] intro sequence introduces you to the RvR mechanics in a relatively stable manner. E.g. like Nordland. In other words, distill down the "intro level 1 - 50" into 2 hours of "PvP intro" content.
I tend to agree. I feel like the last 5-7 years in mmo industry has just been reskinned pve mmo's over and over again.
I hate to keep throwing out "themepark" mmo's, but that's really the best way I know how to describe it lol.
There's a lot about them that are fun, but I feel like once you've played a couple, you've played them all. They just get reskinned with new graphics/animiations/IP's etc..., and resold by a different publisher/dev.
For teenagers just entering the MMO scene, sure that could be fun because you don't know it's been done to death, but it's definitely getting stale/old for us MMO vets who have played 10+ years.
Camelot unchained is truley exciting, for the really fascinating ways it's pulling together new and old into something very truley at its core very different. This game is going to play completely differently than most, if not all of what's out there.
Not all of the ideas for CU are innovative, but I WOULD say the way they're being pieced together, and the structure in which that is happening is innovative.

Most of the people who are funding this game are former DAOC players.
DAOC had some forms of fast travel. In old frontiers (OF), you could port from your border keep to a portal keep in the most distant zone of an enemy realm with a short run to their farthest keep. IOW you as an Alb could port from Castle Sauvage to Emain Macha then go take Dun Crauchon. If they had one of your relics, you could capture one of their keeps and create a Corpse Summoner. Then when a member of your realm died, he could release directly to that keep and be rezzed. In new frontiers (NF), you could port to 4 of your own keeps if you owned the keep and all of its towers. If you took certain enemy keeps and all of their towers, you could then port there too. Some variation on these kinds of porting would be fine for CU. Mark said something about crafters building portal structures. That could work.
The alternative is everybody has to run out from the safe zone every time they release and run all the way across the map to get back to the action. It would be lame especially with stealthers and gank groups patrolling near the safe zone to pick people off. There should be limited porting and ways to shut down the porting to allow your realm time to take keeps etc. before defenders can arrive.
Similarly DAOC had consignment merchants and a market explorer to find what houses were selling the item you want in its housing. It worked fine aside from certain limitations of the search screen and the cap on the amount of gold a merchant could hold. Requiring all sales be done by spamming a trade channel and sending tells sounds like a huge step backwards to me and very annoying. That's one of the design choices Mark has made that I least like.

I'm not trying to offend when I say this, just being honest, but this game isn't for you. It's not a casual friendly game. Mark Jacobs is making a game for the old school RvR crowd. Players who understand that to have an impact on RvR you need to be part of a group or guild, you have to be dedicated, you have to be unconcerned with the trappings of the modern MMO like tiered kit chasing, and PvE raids every other night.
The game isn't being aimed at a wide audience. Mark knows full well that this will be a niche game and won't attract the numbers that more "normal" MMO's get. That's why it's subscription based. No rapid turn over of F2P casual players but a core player base of dedicated RvR fans who are willing to pay the monthly fee for the game they can't get anywhere else because other Devs are too busy catering to the masses.
I understand perfectly what you're looking for and why, but you won't find it here. There are plenty of MMO's out there that will cater to your requirements. This one is for those of us who want to play a different game. It won't appeal to the majority and the number of subscribers will be small, but the developers don't care about that. They're more interested in making the game that they want to play, and hopfully some of us will come along for the ride.
Wow, I don't remember any of that porting around from daoc rvr, but I played before new frontiers.
The only porting I remember from back then was the original way you get to enemy realms for rvr. The portal pad where you had to wear the necklace to the enemy realm you want. (neck check!!!).
That was far from fast travel. Sure it was a portal, but it wasn't fast by any means. You had to stand there, what, 10 minutes just to port back? then get your group back together, and run from there to wherever you were fighting before? (could be 3 or 4 zones away).
I don't remember any of that other stuff to portal straight to a keep in rvr. When I played you had to physically run to every keep. I remember the fun of trying to keep enemy realms from getting inside the keep we were attacking. =)
Also, I don't blame kids for playing what's available. They're just kids, they're gonna play the games that are out, like I did back in 2000-2001 originally with daoc, and play them the way they were designed/intended to be played.
It's the publishers/devs that have steered the mmo industry in the direction it has gone the last 5-7 years.
That's why I think CU is such a big deal, and getting all this hype/excitement. They're daring to take a very different approach (both in funding, development, and principles/playstyle).
I don't think the whole mmo genre has to change direction, but it definitely needs to have options in multiple directions. The way they're all going the same direction right now sickens me, and I want something different.
Heck that's why even with all the modern/newer themepark mmos, I've been playing and OLD one EVE online the last 6 months. It's the only one that holds my interest any more LOL.
If you took eve, made it a fantasy game where you control a character instead of a spaceship, and made it tri realm instead of free for all, I would play that forever LOL.

DAoC had a marketplace "Auction House" search, but the player had to physically go to the player's house to make the purchase. It will likely be implemented the same, otherwise goods and services of some players would never be known due to time differences, scheduling, etc.
As far as a group finder, I would imagine there will likely be some form of open goup system, similiar to the one found in Warhammer Online, to encourage grouping.
However, solo story lines? Your story line is you playing your character and experiencing the game itself through everyday interacting. Sadly, if player needs to have their hand held to tell a story of their own character then the character's story probably shouldn't be told in the first place.

MJ has excpressed a lot of room for wiggle within the implementation of alot of the ideas during developement and the backers forums /internal/alpha/beta testing.
But I also think he's said if what you want out of this game directly contradicts his foundational principles, then this game isn't for you. It's a niche game. I know he said that somewhere.
There are plenty of games with auction houses / dungeon finders / single player mmo. There would be no reason for him to try to create another clone of those games. There are already dozens out there like that. I don't know why anyone would want him to go back on his foundational principles, and make a completely differently designed game than he's already stated either.
He's making something different here, with increased required socialization that many of us miss from our older gaming days. There's a lot of people out there that don't understand, or don't want, the new mmo trend of having almost no interaction with your fellow gamers. Newer mmos have removed the need for socialization, because it increases their playerbase, but it also turns off those of us that play for that reason (among many).

I completely agree with the OP.
The games get more and more shallow and easy entertainment.
What i hope from CU is a stable and good base that concentrates on PvP fights, with some "minor" addons around that base.
I dont want that much fancy stuff around it and i dont want too many tools, that make players switch of their brains.
That together with a comitted comunity, is what i am looking for.
Alone the discussions about the mechanics (mostly before KS started), give me a good feeling, because i know, that everybody thats involved here, really thinks about it.

I disagree with your second paragrah. Issues like gank groups patrolling near the safe zone to pick off reinforcements is exactly why too much fast travel is a bad thing. That's overall realm strategy. It requires to guys that just got wiped to organize themselves to get back out to the battle. Perhaps they have to take a longer path, or maybe they have to call for help from groups in the field opening up attack opportunities for the enemies. It's a real punishment for wiping and having to release and a real benefit for the victorious side. I don't really think long travels out to the field should be the only way, but at times I think it should be required. Something like DAoC's 10 min portal to Emain, with a milegate chokepoint so a dedicated side could bottle up people only coming from that direction.
On a market explorer type thing, I'm less opinionated. I see both arguments. In reality, I don't think it will matter that much. The dynamics of a pure RvR game with a pure player crafted economy will make this game very guild-centric. I imagine we'll end up getting most things from the guild crafters made from the resources we fight to be able to aquire.

While a lot of younger people play MMO's there are a lot of adults who play as well.
I am in my 40's, and I don't think I would play any MMO for any amount of time if it did not have:
1. Solo-ability
2. Some sort of group finder.
3. Some sort of fast travel.
4. An auction house.
You are one of those people that seem to associate the difficulty of a game based on the inconveniences it offers. Spending less time to get the same things done doesn't make the game "easier", it makes it less time consuming. Just because a game has a lot of strong solo content doesn't mean the solo content has to be easier. Do you see what I am getting at?
I played EQ.. which was a "hard" mmo, for lack of a better term. I had my own 6-man group that I played on 4 PC's. I would never want to go back to that sort of game where I had to play my own group, or be FORCED to group to do any content. Old school gaming doesn't mean "better". I'm also not a casual player. I understand that people want better rewards for the time they put in. This is not a wild concept, but it also doesn't mean that you can't have all the things you listed because non-hardcore players don't need/want them. So you'd rather walk for 20 mins to get to the area you are going, as opposed to taking some sort of fast travel and being there instantly, or, within 1 minute? That's not hardcore, that's just a waste of time.
I'm not trying to offend when I say this, just being honest, but this game isn't for you.
Then it won't get funded and it will crash and burn.
It's not a casual friendly game. Mark Jacobs is making a game for the old school RvR crowd. Players who understand that to have an impact on RvR you need to be part of a group or guild, you have to be dedicated, you have to be unconcerned with the trappings of the modern MMO like tiered kit chasing, and PvE raids every other night.[mod edit] What part of player shops makes for better RvR? What part of player shops has anything to do with a group or guild?
Using bad oldschool mechanics just be be oldschool is fucking retarded.
I don't think you quite comprehend the playerbase of an RvR game. For RvR to be successful, you need population. You need the emain zerg. What kind of player makes up that zerg? The casual pug. Without them, the PvP drags, and dies. If you want to be successful, you need the casual RvR player.
CU is supposed to be an RvR game, not a hardcore game for elitist 8-man no-school no-job, no-life asshats.
I understand perfectly what you're looking for and why, but you won't find it here. There are plenty of MMO's out there that will cater to your requirements.
[mod edit]
However, solo story lines? Your story line is you playing your character and experiencing the game itself through everyday interacting. Sadly, if player needs to have their hand held to tell a story of their own character then the character's story probably shouldn't be told in the first place.
Depends if you want anyone to play the game. Many players may try CU to see what "oldschool RvR" is about, but if they can't even find where to start or get rolled without doing much, they're just going to leave and play GW2 or something they're already familiar with.
As I said in my post, I would envision the "solo story line" as a 2 hour pseudo-PvE RvR track where it's basically like a solo mission in an FPS game before you go play multiplayer. You know, so the player's not a complete drag on your team. E.g. a tutorial.
The one useful thing about PvE in games is that it does give the player some time to become slightly proficient with their class. That doesn't mean "PvE" should be in CU, but it does mean that the player should have the option (or not?) of some solo / structured content so they don't immediately fail epicly in RvR where teammates are relying on them.
Because that's going to make players like me talk shit to them in chat and they'll be upset and leave the game. That or I'll get a temp ban from a CSR.

I kinda agree about the auction house. Those mentioning consignment merchants in daoc have bad or selective memories if they can't remember that you could instantly buy everything from the search npc. If they do the same with stalls, they'll be good though. I think it was a 20% markup to instantly buy things, so running was incentivized and if the player is there then you have interaction. That said, running from stall to stall won't stop me from playing the game.
Those mentioning old frontiers didn't have fast travel were just didn't know about keep release. I do think it needs to stay very very limited.
LFG mechanics would be ok, but honestly I never found them useful except for dungeons in games where composition was an afterthought for the most part. Not the best way to go about rvr if you want to be productive.
Solo story... while I do miss epic quests for daoc, I just don't think a solo story even fits in the game.
It's a tutorial goddammit.

At the Town of Ramapo Challenger Center, formerly known as the Lower Hudson Valley Challenger Center, kids can become astronauts for a day and families can go on space missions to the moon, Mars, and beyond.
"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Chances are you know at least one child whose answer to that age-old question is "an astronaut!" Ever since Neil Armstrong first set foot on the moon more than 40 years ago, countless kids have dreamed of doing the same. While NASA may have shuttered its space missions for now, the Town of Ramapo Challenger Center (also known as the Lower Hudson Valley Challenger Center) invites kids and adults alike on monthly public missions to space.
On Public Space Missions, kids learn about science and engineering along with communication, problem-solving, and decision-making skills.
The center is part of the Challenger Learning Center Network, one of about 50 centers powered by a nonprofit education organization that creates dynamic, hands-on exploration and discovery opportunities for young students with the goal to strengthen their interest in and knowledge of science, technology, engineering, and math. It's one of four Challenger Centers in the New York metro area, but it's the only one that currently offers its programs to the general public. The other three centers, located in Lower Manhattan, Paramus, NJ, and Bridgeport, CT, offer their programs only to groups, including school field trips and birthday parties. Kids and families who visit the Town of Ramapo Challenger Center can embark on an interactive learning experience that allows them to perform the same tasks performed by real scientists, engineers, researchers, and astronauts.
Small groups can drop by on the third Sunday of the month to join a simulated space mission to the moon, Mars, or a comet. Visitors are divided into two groups, with half assigned to be engineers and scientists in the mission control room and the other half assigned to be astronauts on the "spacecraft." Participants switch places halfway through the mission, so each person gets the full experience. Just like real astronauts, you'll attend a briefing session then select tasks to perform on the mission: navigation, medical, communication, or life support. The key is teamwork, which means that participants have to work together to complete a successful mission.
The core of each Challenger Center is an interactive, computerized simulator with a mission control room patterned after the NASA Johnson Space Center and an orbiting space station ready for exploration.
On the second Sunday of each month, visitors can step into the Challenger Center planetarium and travel to the planets and moons of our solar system, explore the lifecycle of stars, learn some ancient myths about the constellations in the sky, walk on the moon like an astronaut, and observe comets, meteors, eclipses, nebulae, galaxies, and black holes. Following the show, participants can enjoy a hands-on astronomy-related project in the center's activity room.
Note: Programs are recommended for ages 9 and older, but children younger than 9 are welcome when accompanied by an adult. Reservations are strongly recommended for both programs.
The Challenger Center also offers after-school programs including a Lego Academy for children in grades 1-8, birthday parties with simulated space missions, and summer camp. See website for details.
Address: 225 Route 59, Airmont
Price: $10 per program; $5 seniors and children ages 8 and younger (when accompanied by a paying adult)

Brice Butler remains one of Raiders best and least used receivers
The Oakland Raiders have one of the worst passing games in the entire NFL. So naturally, the coaching staff has been doing everything within their power to give rookie quarterback Derek Carr a chance to succeed, right? Well… not so much. But anyone who has been following the Raiders closely this season should not be surprised by that. I have written a lot about the fact that the...

Brice Butler surprised to find out why Raiders cut his playing time
Earlier this week I discussed how the Oakland Raiders decided to cut the number of snaps wide receiver Brice Butler received just one week after he had a break out game against the San Diego Chargers. It was confusing considering the fact that interim head coach Tony Sparano was giving Butler and Andre Holmes a chance to show they deserved more snaps. On both accounts the young wide...

Sparano's confusing use of Raiders wide receiver Brice Butler
In his first game as interim head coach of the Oakland Raiders, Tony Sparano mixed things up at wide receiver. Rather than sticking to the stubborn ways of Dennis Allen, Sparano gave his young and unproven guys a chance to step up and grab the bull by the horns. The result? Rookie quarterback Derek Carr had a career day and the Raiders offense put up twice as many points as they...

While it is easy to point at the significant plays like Jason Verrett's interception...

Mississippi State's front line on the defensive side of the football is far from young.
There are three seniors, P.J. Jones, Kaleb Eulls and Preston Smith, listed as starters on the preseason depth chart.Â
The experience on the defensive line changed how coach David Turner has attacked this fall camp.
"You try to refine some things as opposed to teaching," Turner said. "The guys did a great job over the summer and the old guys taught the young guys – the freshmen – what to do, so we've been a little bit ahead in terms of knowing what to do with those guys. That does nothing but help accelerate our teaching and knowing what to do and how to do it.Â
"I've been pleased with that so far and, we've got a veteran group and they know what is going on. They are doing a better job of coaching each other and that is the thing we talked about in the offseason."

How willing is U.S. EPA to compromise with industry on its power plant emissions standards? During today's OnPoint, Robert Sussman, the former senior policy adviser at EPA, gives his take on the key hurdles facing the agency as it tries to meet President Obama's aggressive timeline for new and existing power plant emissions standards. Sussman, who departed the agency earlier this month, also discusses how the holdup of Gina McCarthy's confirmation as administrator has affected operations and slowed the progress of agency projects.

Xcel to boost its wind power in Upper Midwest by 33 percent
Xcel Energy on Tuesday announced its single largest increase in wind generation in the Upper Midwest, saying it will add three large wind farms in Minnesota and North Dakota.

Moniz urges study of link between grid reliability, fuel availability
The National Petroleum Council should study how power outages caused by major weather events such as last year's Superstorm Sandy affect the availability of transportation fuel, Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz said today. Speaking at an NPC meeting in Washington, Moniz said the Obama administration's efforts to address climate change would feature a heavy focus on how to adapt to the effects of rising temperatures and more frequent extreme weather, including examining how to ensure the resiliency of energy infrastructure. And he said the federally chartered advisory committee to the Department of Energy should play a central role in those efforts.

Karen Mok finds answers on 'Somewhere I Belong'
HONG KONG (AP) - Karen Mok wrestles with what's been a lifelong question for her on the title of her first English album, "Somewhere I Belong."
The Hong Kong pop diva has a half-Chinese, half-Welsh father and her mother is half-Chinese, one quarter-Iranian and a quarter-German. It's easy to see why Mok cannot pinpoint one ethnic identity.
So where exactly does she feel like she belongs? Mok explains it's not a geographic location, but rather her home is on stage, wherever she performs.
"It's about what I do, when I feel comfortable, that's when I'm doing what I love most, that's singing, that's when I'm performing on stage, and just singing my heart out, sharing my emotions," she said. "So that's where I belong."
After 16 successful Mandarin/Cantonese albums, Mok is venturing into English lyrics and a mix of music styles.
The album is her first attempt to cross from pop to jazz. She sings classic jazz tunes, as well as reinterpretations of Chinese and Western pop songs.
Insisting on a jazz album with an Asian sound, Mok made the album in China with Asian musicians and added a traditional Chinese instrument, the gu zeng string instrument, to the background of some tracks.
The 42-year-old songstress has been on the Asian entertainment scene for more than 20 years. She's starred in over 40 feature films and is the first Asian female artist to star in a Broadway show, when she was cast as Mimi in the 10th anniversary Asian tour of "Rent."
Mok is currently promoting "Somewhere I Belong" in Asia.
Later this year, she will appear in Keanu Reeves's directorial debut, "Man of Tai Chi."

Authorities are investigating the shooting death of a James Island man outside a Fort Johnson Road community gathering spot late Friday.
The shooting was described as a drug deal gone bad, and authorities are alarmed by the power of the weaponry involved. As many as 15-20 shots were fired.
Two men who wrecked in a bullet-holed vehicle while trying to flee the scene were questioned in the case but later released. They remain persons of interest.
The dead man's identity was expected to be released later.

The first one is what I'm talking about; there's a shadow, but it's not took strong, almost bordering on acceptable. Could be easily shopped out.
The second one is what I would class as a crappy shadow, just shouldn't be there.

its implications, and the extraordinary domestic challenges facing this
nation of 1.3 billion people. This is not a broad survey course, but
rather an intensive study of critical issues. The study group itself
assists in determining the issues to be covered. Prospective subjects
range from whether a conflict with China is inevitable to worldwide
pollution from Chinese coal and why Taiwan matters. Class members are
expected to stay current with news from China, with one hour of weekly
readings from the coursepack and articles sent to them via email, and
are encouraged to do in-depth research reports.

The history of any period is reflected in the art produced by the people
of that time and culture. We study the many forms of art produced in
the Roman world, tracing the development of sculpture, architecture,
and painting from the time when Rome was no more than a cluster of small
villages until it became a powerful empire. Our focus will be on how
Roman values of strength, order, innovation, military conquest, and
luxury affected the art and architecture of the period. Slides are used
at each class session to illustrate the topics discussed. In addition,
independent museum visits are encouraged as appropriate.

We follow the same format as the previous study group, The Play's the
Thing, reading aloud scripts and scenes to fully appreciate the emotional
tone of plays and their characters. Emphasis is on class discussion
and analysis of contemporary short and very short one-act plays. We
explore how the plays communicate the contradictions, conflicts, and
absurdities of contemporary life and the human condition. Playwrights
include John Patrick Shanley, David Ives, and John Guare, with three
sessions devoted solely to Tom Stoppard. In addition to reading plays,
class members prepare brief reports on the work and career of the playwrights.
Videos are presented when available.

The biological sciences have advanced at a delirious pace during the
past 150 years. In pursuing their visions, men and women of diverse
backgrounds have overcome personal misfortune and gender and racial
bias, as well as political, religious, and ethical pressures. Our goal
is to understand them and their achievements and to gain insight into
the changing nature of research. When applicable, we consider what has
gone before and what is known today. A coursepack of biographical selections
provides one component for discussion. The coordinator, with the help
of qualified class members, offers a historical perspective and clarifies
the scientific work.
