It's all about pushing the right buttons
If the idea doesnt sell off to you, i dont quite see why some pixel clusters should turn you on to it.
But it is a kickstarter, and it seems to me that people confuse it with a per-order (and what comes with that, demos, videos, etc) and cant understand the project/philosophy of a ks.
if you dont like the idea, it is not for you, and one should move on.
If the money is the problem, then one should move on as well. It wont be cheaper after or if it it funds, and for some $ 25 is a small fortune.
if you prefer complete products before parting with those very hard earned $25+, then There are many released Mmo's and also F2P games.
as for what has been completed, well they have kicked off the kickstarter and awoken a couple of trolls as well it seems :)
This one is gonna be funded by the Trolls as well as the kickstarters, as the Trolls are gonna love a 2 year+ of trolling Even before it is released. Hehehe......

"Shutting down threads sense 2004"
meh ,if you read my post earlier it's very viable concern, I think those that dropped out (myself encluded) whom initially pledge a good amount realized what I did on my previous post. Just saying, I can tell you what I think a great MMO should have and post that as my game? Meh, a solid idea and structure needs to be shown more, I thought by now he would have that at least. Sadly I am now with most here on agreement we really have no clue what this game is really about except a concept. Sorry , but that is not enough for a pledge small or large in my eyes. Obviously thou others disagree, that's their choice of course.

Torment rode on the backs of Wasteland 2's success and its fans, and hey, power to it - use every advantage you have. Still, I find it funny whenever someone says, "Why pledge to something in the conceptual phase?" (I put it nicely).
1. That is precisely when a project truly needs Kickstarter - see the "starter" part?
2. I do not put much more faith in a project that shows footage or more media. It is not too difficult to put together something like this quite early on and have it reflect little of what gameplay will be like. It can be nice to make people pay attention, but it is no more a promise than ideas.
I judge a Kickstarter project on its ideas and the reputation and passion of the team behind it. CU is not going to have much to show other than ideas because, yes, it is very early in development. There is no game yet, just design concepts, art, and a plan. There is also a team led by two guys who actually have quality, commercially successful games shipped. That plays heavily into deciding whether to back. This is not someone like the Greed Monger guy who used to promote MMA fights and such, these are professional developers.
Anyway, everyone has their own criteria for what they need to see, read, and hear before making a pledge, and that's fine.

Dunno. If all he has is ideas floating around and is expecting his Kickstarter supporters to help mold his vision then isn't he risking a repeat of what happened during his reign of DAoC? I mean correct me if I'm wrong but I remember clearly that it was the players and the devs listening to the players that screwed up DAoC.
But what's truly disheartening is the decision to focus solely on PvP while short changing PvE players, especially when you throw in crafting and structure building features. I mean don't get me wrong. I'm not speaking of the PvE'ers who's bread and butter is raiding. WAR proved that having that kind of PvE is counter-productive if your game revolves around PvP. But it seems that unintentionally, the potential playerbase for CU that is all for PvPing are lumping PvE (non raiders) with PvE (raiders) and saying if you don't like it, leave.
So now we're at a point where I believe more clarification is needed. If the PvE aspects of CU is not going to revolve around supporting PvE raiders (something I fully support) and also will not support PvE warmongers (those that enjoy a more supportive role in PvP) then they have effectively alienated a huge portion of support for CU. I mean, yes, both kinds of PvE'ers need varied content to maintain their interest. But while PvE raiders desire content on the tailend of the leveling journey, PvE warmongers desire content during that journey to max level.

A project which shows actual game footage at least proves they put work into it and created a core concept. The direction the game takes from there can be flexible or firm, but at least it has a solid foundation to build a game around.
Kickstarter is a business request for financing. I don't view it as anything beyond that. A business that invests in itself before asking for outside money has a lot better chances of succeeding than one that asks for outside money just to get started. Take City of Steam or Path of Exile for example. They nearly finished the game before asking for funding from the public. That means they funded the game through their own pockets, or a loan from a bank, or just lived on ramen noodles for a year before trying to squeeze money out of investors who have no idea what will happen to the product.
I want to see CU succeed. However, I'm not interested in participating in funding what is only an idea, according to the rest of the posts. I want to see a core game concept along with some actual work before I throw money at empty promises. I might donate if they are close to reaching their goal near the end of the kickstarter campaign. I'm not sure how much, though.

I don't blame Mark for going this route. He wants to make sure the funds are their before he throws his 2 mil and someone else's mil away. He thinks their is an audience for the niche game but this gives reassurance

It really wasn't a decision made to short change PvE players (though the effect is the same, I can't argue that) but rather what a small team could do on $5M. I could create some really crappy PvE and say "Look boys and girls, we have PvE!" but that would be nonsense. If I add PvE leveling tracks, I need to also balance all the skills/abilities/spells/etc. in the game for PvE and that will restrict a lot of what we can do with them. OTOH, my team and I can focus on make the RvR great without worrying about how things can be used in PvE. They can spend more time on the models, effects, etc. because all that content that would have been needed is now not needed. Yeah, I know, it does restrict the game's subscribers and it may restrict even too much for this KS but if I'm going to ask people to donate to help make a game, it's going to be a game that I know a small team can do and do well. I'm not desperate enough to lie just to raise $2M. If I wanted to do that, I'd could go to a VC, lie and get a lot more. :)
There will definitely be NPCs in the game, there have to be but in terms of content that PvE-oriented players can level by killing, grab items by looting, etc. Camelot Unchained won't have that not because I hate that stuff (I don't) but because I do not believe that a small team can do that and hope to create a game that will last. I do think we can do that with RvR.
I may be wrong but I'm going to try.

The fact that Jacobs listen to his players is one major reason they should back him up. And he's not born yesterday either. I doubt he'd be the type to listen to utterly dumb feedback.

Things they have shown of CU so far:
Cocept Art
Tuatha De Danann (TDD) render
Viking render
And they looked pretty sweet...
Things related to the tech stack that will build CU:
Render engine that showed 10,000 charcters on screen without frame rate loss (March on Oz Model)
Multiplayer/Networking/Accounts/Physics demo using multiplayer elments of March on Oz models.
.. And.. Obsidian is backing them.
That's only the last few days of kickstarter updates...

OTOH, you are right about the lack of advertisement but really, what killed it was WoW. SI sent our numbers up and it held, ToA sent our numbers up (less than SI and the bump didn't last as long) but it was a slow decline until WoW and then we lost 30% of our subs 3 months post WoW-launch. That was one of the main reasons we went with NF. We knew what was coming and we tried to come up with something different to excite the player base.

i for one am excited, because this is going to be so different from a lot out there. Do people not realize the are a dozen high funded big gaming company broad strokes mmos out there in the market. Why would we try to add another to that mix?
focusing on the rvr side and not pve will allow for a freedom of creative thought in this game that few others have achieved
perhaps if this game not having pve progression is make or break for you, than perhaps you aren't part of the target niche. I would urge you however to consider that the markets full of pve mmos, and to give one trying to do something different a chance

I don't want PvE. I'd much rather play with and against other people. DAOC's RvR was epic and the foundations of it are being brought into CU. The guy behind DAOC and its initial form is building CU. He says he wants to listen to backers during design and has already shown that he's willing to listen. That's enough for me to back CU right there. I simply want to see this game get made.
And Mark commented earlier in this thread abut how TOA happened...makes me like him more. TOA was a gigantic boost for PvE folks, but kinda sucked arse for RvR folks. It FORCED you to do tons of PvE just to be competitive. I just wanted to RvR. I see CU, somewhat, as an opportunity to really take the Tri-realm concept to the next level for those who really enjoy/will enjoy it, while at the same time extracting the (to me/us) extraneous stuff that really didn't significantly add to the DAOC experience.
That's not to say I didn't have some fun in some PvE. I did...killing PvE'ing players in DF lol. PvE was always only a means to and end for me. It was a way to get what I needed to compete in RvR.
Anyway, back to the original question: they haven't shown a ton so far but it's still early in the KS and they haven't been lazy when it somes to providing updates. I suspect (and Mark has said as much) that we'll be seeing more actualy game stuff in later updates. We're a week into a month-long KS and people are already wanting to see so much. And I thought *I* was impatient. :)

I don't know, maybe I missed something while I was playing DAoC. But I could fully level and maybe find some cool loot without stepping into RvR or participating in a raid. This was before any expansion packs. And when I felt ready to fight for my realm, I could. One reason was because loot tables were not set for each mob, but a universally random loot table which included ALL mobs. That meant that a lowly wolf cub could drop a epic as well as a max level mob.
But if you're going the route of no loot drops or limited drops, then I see where you're coming from. All I can say is good luck in your endeavor and I'll be waiting for you at the finish line. And if you get there,I'll be purchasing my copy to experience what your current take on RvR has to offer.

The Fourth Symphony in E-flat major with the epithet "The Romantic", is likely the best-loved symphony of Anton Bruckner. It received its highly successful world premiere in 1881 in Vienna, performed by the Vienna Philharmonic under Hans Richter. The Scherzo with its hunting sequences is in particularly high favor with audiences. Oehms Classics presents here a live recording from April 2008 from the Great Festival Hall in Salzburg.Notes & Reviews:

I recently took my mother to NYC for her birthday. (We're from Queens originally). Since we stayed at the Edison Hotel (and a choice we were VERY happy with but that's another review...), we ate breakfast, lunch and one dinner at the Cafe. It was like coming home. The food brought back memories of what we were used to, the atmosphere was true NY and I don't know about the negative comments about the staff as we found them professional and polite. But the food is the real story. Let's put it this way, we also had dinner at a "Celebrity chef's" restaurant and we wished we had just stuck to the Cafe instead. My mother was in heaven with the soups, mushroom barley and matzo ball both scored BIG with Mom and I'm craving their potato salad and reuben. If you want excellent, real food at a great price, then run don't walk to the Cafe Edison.
Posted by Lola on 03/19/2010
I was bit nerouse to go eat at Cafe Edison with all the negative review on rude staff. So this week I was in the city for a show and brave the crticism and entered. I was seat promptly and upn ordering my food it was deliver no less than 5 min. hot and yummy. The waitress was pleasant and very helpful(I guess I luck out!) she ask us numerous times if we were fine and needed anything. The bill was reasonable too for NYC prices. I was quite please with the service and food. SO if your in the area go check out!
Posted by dcvdickens on 10/02/2009
I have always loved the Edison for it's charming albeit simple atmosphere and the possibility of running into musicians, actors, writers, and producers who all lunch here. However be aware that at least one waiter is running a scam in that he adds your tip to your bill without asking or informing you, counting on the fact that you won't check your bill and will leave ANOTHER tip for him on the table. Despicable. I told the hostess but didn't know where the manager was.
Posted by Matt on 09/22/2009
I've been here twice about a year apart between visits. Each time it's been great! The service is fast and friendly. My coffee was refilled and I was not rushed out of the place even though they were very busy. The atmosphere is really cool and relaxing. The cost is pretty low, especially for the Times Square area. Both times I got the lox platter, which is HUGE and amazing. Each time I overate because it was so darn good! This review comes from a local who completely despises Times Square--but I'm willing to make the trek just for breakfast at Cafe Edison.

It's not for the faint of heart, but it's a great place. The food is excellent. I had a great hot pastrami sandwich. It was half the price of the same thing at one of the nearby tourist traps, and though smaller, was plenty of food (and I'm a big eater). Waiters are brusque but they're just trying to get you your food quickly. It is truly old school, in the best sense of the word. If it scares off a few tourists, all the better for us natives.
Posted by Richard on 12/23/2008
I kinda like the way the place looks and coffee shop-level service is fine by me in a coffee shop, so no complaints there. The eggs were over and easy, and the toast was buttered still doing fine. Tepid coffee? Please. Tepid sausage patties? No thanks. Tepid, boiled-tasting home "fries"? You gotta be kidding.

My sister and I had lunch at the Café Edison on May 10, 2008. I had eaten there several years ago with a group from school and it was a unique experience that I wanted to share with my sister. You take a step back into time when you step into Café Edison. With its pink walls, small booths, rustic advertisements for Coca-Cola, and diner bar with stools for the quick-stopper, it's not the tourist attracter in appearance or prices. The wait staff is not concerned with providing pleasing customer service and mediocre food, but rather with providing fast, efficient customer service and good, quality food for reasonable prices. I ordered the Reuben sandwich, as it is truly one of my favorite sandwiches in and out of New York, and honestly, the sandwich was 2 ½ inches thick with meat and sour rout, but mostly meat. It was spectacular. My sister ordered the ham and French toast and she was equally pleased with her food. With drinks, I think the whole bill came out to about $15. How many other places in New York City can you go and have a good-tasting lunch for two people for only $15? Highly recommended for the New York City visitor who is looking for a unique New York experience and excellent food for a good value.

Teams that refuse to divulge injury information can be more forthcoming than Lakers Coach Mike Brown was Friday about Kobe Bryant's right foot. Bryant sat out the Lakers' morning and evening practice sessions, a team spokesman said, because his foot was bothering him. He was listed as day to day. Asked about Bryant's injury, Brown said, "It's one of his feet." Pressed for more details, the coach deferred to Gary Vitti, saying the longtime trainer was staying on top of the situation. "He knows a lot more than me when it comes to that stuff," Brown said. "I'm OK not knowing what's going on, just can a guy go or not. If he can go, great. If he can't go, great." Bryant's status for the Lakers' exhibition Sunday in Fresno against the Golden State Warriors was unclear.

Arduino & Netduino synced communication and LCD animationSaturday, March 12th, 2011
The Arduino and the Netduino are communicating over two digital IO lines. The animation is being synced over these lines. Rafel an I wanted to make the displays run. With success… but what next? Syncing both devices!
Since Rafael is developing on the Netduino platform and I am using the Arduino as platform, we had much fun putting these two devices together and let them talk to each other. This communication is used to keep the animation on both LCD displays in sync. There is a video below but it has a really bad quality. Focus your eyes on the LCD devices when watching it.

Time for changes…Thursday, March 10th, 2011
I am restructuring this site and the server it is running on at the moment. I moved the site to a new server today. No script languages, database servers etc. anymore! Everything is being generated offline to static HTML since some days!
This website is just a mirror off what I am running on my local system. No backups of the server needed anymore, jehaaa!
The webserver underneath this website is thttpd at the moment but it is just an experiment. I am leaving the era of dynamic webpages so I don't have any need for software like Apache anymore. thttpd is great but I am missing some features. I will give lighttpd a try in the next days.
The RSS and Atom feed has been moved. Update your readers! Maybe they will come back to the old place later but at the moment I don't care.. The problem is, that I could not configure thttpd to read index.rss files like reading index.html automatically in a directory context. It is not a big problem but some more features would be great.
I will publish the state of the hanez.org server here and will then explain how and why the final solution looks like it is… ;)

WTH? My Netduino just arrivedFriday, March 4th, 2011
I got my new toy some minutes ago. A Netduino!
Netduino is an open source electronics platform using the .NET Micro Framework. The idea is taken from the Arduino platform but the difference is, that the Netduino is being programmed in .NET and it has a much more powerful 32-bit microcontroller onboard. It is an AT91SAM7X512 with the following specs:
- Atmel 32-bit microcontroller
- Speed: 48MHz, ARM7
- Code Storage: 128 KB
Hopefully I could develop with the Mono project for it but at first I will do my work in a Microsoft based environment. Sounds contradictory? Yes, it is… but I want to give it a try… ;)
I am a little bit it ill at the moment but it will be a funny weekend when playing with this nice piece of hardware.

Percy Harvin had been placed on injured reserve with an ankle injury the Vikings confirmed on Wednesday evening. The Vikings were holding out for that their best receiver could return but the news came from Head Coach Leslie Frazier that it is a wrap for Harvin. Harvin injured his ankle in week 9 vs. the Seattle Seahawks. losing Harvin is a huge blow to the Vikings passing offense which is already ranked 32nd in the NFL and struggling. Now, there is more pressure on young Christian Ponder to raise his level of play. In 2012, Harvin had 62 catches for 677 yards and 3 touchdowns. He also had 96 yards rushing and 1 touchdown via the ground. var switchTo5x=true; stLight.options({publisher:''});

What's the best supersize case fan?

While other cooling products get all the limelight - we're primarily thinking of you, CPU coolers - the humble fan is just as important when it comes to cooling hardware. However, while most cases use the ubiquitous
120mm size
, quite a few are now coming with supersized fans on side panels (and
some other cases
should come with these fans, but don't).
However, even if your case does have a massive side panel fan, it might not be much good. We've seen large fans with practically no blade-pitch - and therefore no airflow - in order to keep the case slim (and, dare we say, keep the costs down) while others have been noisy, or only just better than the practically flat fans.
Thank heavens that
is here to let know know which of these supersize fans are worth hanging on to, or what to change them for if they're not.
Once you've found the fan for you, the next question is how to mount it. In general, it's better to suck the hot air from a case as quickly as possible, so fitting the side panel fan as an exhaust would make sense. This is even more true if your
graphics card has vents in the side of the cooler
that pushes hot air toward the side of your case - you don't want to push that hot air back into your card's cooler, after all.
This arrangement might not suit your desk - if your case is next to your arms, you don't want it venting hot air onto you 24/7 (or maybe you do - it's your choice). Equally if your card is a little better behaved with its waste heat, you should have the side panel fan blowing inwards as it'll cool you graphics card, and your motherboard and CPU cooler. Either way, read on to see which fan is best.
How we Tested
We've scientifically measured the performance of each fan by measuring its airflow and noise.
Airflow is crucial
, as this figure determines how effective the fan is at moving air through your PC, while a
noisy fan
is an irritant everyone could do without.
Unlike most other PC components, a fan only has to perform a single task, which is to move air through your PC to help keep the components cool. Whether the fan is mounted on a CPU heatsink or radiator, blowing over the motherboard or acting as an input or output chassis fan, moving air is all that it has to do.
However, human beings are slightly more complex and demanding than your average fan. While a fan may be content with simply moving air around, we'd also like it to do this quietly. So, for this group test, we devised a method of measuring both the airflow and noise of a fan to find out which fans provide the ideal balance between the two.
By timing how long it took each fan to fill this black sack, we were able to work out its airflow
Measuring airflow accurately is one of the hardest tests to perform, as the most common measuring device, the
, only measures the air flowing over its surface area. This is a problem, as the velocity of the air leaving the fan will vary depending on how close the anemometer is to the centre of the fan. To measure the volume of air moved by the entire fan, not just a small proportion of it, we used the so-called 'black sack' method, espoused by several PC cooling hardware and air-conditioning manufacturers.
This incredibly simple device, which costs around 12p to assemble (compared to several hundred pounds for a decent anemometer) acts as a funnel that directs the airflow from a fan into a black refuse sack. The volume of the sack is a known quantity, so by timing how long it takes each fan to fill the bag with air, we can calculate the airflow using the following formula:
This tells us how many cfm (cubic feet per minute) of air the fan is moving. Using this method also allowed us to compare the airflow of fans with different diameters, simply by adjusting the size of the hole through which the fan blows air into the bag.
Obviously, the 'black sack' method introduces a degree of human error, which is why we tested each fan three times, and used the average time (to the nearest second) to calculate the airflow. Also, even though we used a black sack made from lightweight plastic, it was still too heavy to fill completely for the fans that have a particularly low airflow or low static air pressure, so we were unable to measure their airflow accurately. The lowest-performance fan that completely filled the sack was the Revoltec RL037, which has a calculated airflow of 7cfm; therefore, any fan that couldn't fill the bag provided a level of airflow that was less than this.
How We Measured Noise Levels (or, More Accurately, Sound Pressure)
As few fan manufacturers state specifically how they measure sound level, it would be extremely foolish to compare the claimed figures of each manufacturer. Obviously, the only way we can really compare the sound level of each fan is by testing them in exactly the same way. For this reason, we sent all the fans to the experts at
, a company that specialises in comparative testing of consumer electronic devices.
Testing was carried out in Intertek's home-cinema listening room, which is designed to meet the IEC 286-13 standard. The measurements were taken on a calibrated
Brüel & Kjær 2260
sound level meter positioned 50cm away from the intake side of the fan being tested. We chose a distance of 50cm, as this is the typical distance that most people will sit from their PCs at home.
Also, if we took the measurement from any closer than 50cm, the results would be distorted. This is incredibly important, as the further away the sound level meter is from the sound source then the lower the reading will be. The fans were powered by a passively cooled PSU, so as not to increase the sound level in the room, and held in place by two metal clamps with a reflecting surface behind.
The sound pressure level of each fan was recorded between 80Hz and 20KHz over a 10-second period. The background noise level of the room averaged 19.3dBA during the test period, although it dropped below this level several times. For this reason, any fan that measured less than 19.3dBA has been graphed with a sound level of 19.3dBA.
testing all the fans
, it can be said that any fan producing 25dBA or less was barely audible, while fans emitting between 26dBA and 30dBA were audible but not annoying. Fans measured above 31dBA were perceived to be too loud for comfort.
Not shown on the graphs, but also important, were the subjective observations we made about any particularly unpleasant noises produced by the fans. This is crucial, since the motors of some fans can produce sound at irritating frequencies, which can be very distracting, even if they're not particularly loud.
How We Scored The Fans
Each fan has three separate scores: airflow, acoustics and value, which combine to provide the overall score.
The airflow and acoustics scores are derived from the measured airflow and noise levels of the fans, while the value score is calculated by dividing the airflow, acoustics and features score by the price. The features score takes into account the accessory bundle, awarding points for power adaptors, resistor cables, rheostats and whether the fan is mounted with traditional metal screws or anti-vibration rubber fastenings.

RPL Central Pty Ltd v Commissioner of Patents [2013] FCA 871 (30 August 2013)
Appeal – from opposition decision of the Commissioner of Patents – patentable subject matter – whether computer-implemented information system and process a 'manner of manufacture'
Justice Middleton, in the Federal Court of Australia, has found the claims of an innovation patent relating to an automated information and evidence gathering system to relate to a patent-eligible 'manner of manufacture'.
I usually put any disclaimers or disclosures of interest at the bottom of a post, but on this occasion I am putting them right up-front (although for some readers, at least, this will not be news).
RPL Central Pty Ltd is a client of my employer, Watermark Intellectual Asset Management. I drafted the patent specification which is analysed by Justice Middleton in forensic detail in RPL Central Pty Ltd v Commissioner of Patents. My colleagues within Watermark's IP Law firm ran the Federal Court appeal against the Patent Office decision finding all of the patent claims to be invalid on subject-matter grounds (i.e. not for a 'manner of manufacture' under the Australian law). I was involved throughout the process, even joining the lawyers in court last December.
I am therefore, not even remotely, an unbiased observer in this case, and I am openly delighted – for myself, my colleagues, Counsel who acted in the matter, and our client – that Justice Middleton upheld the appeal. I am also relieved that my work has (so far) survived the scrutiny to which it has been subjected. I have to say, also, that it is a somewhat surreal feeling to see words and drawings that I produced now reproduced in a Federal Court judgment. In the overall scheme of things, so few patents actually become the subject of court proceedings that many practitioners may go their entire careers without this happening to them. Most, I dare say, would be glad of this!

Look up the word district, for instance, and in addition to the usual synonyms and antonyms, the reader will find references to well-known neighbourhood districts such as Market Square in Saint John, Montreal's Balconville, Toronto's Cabbagetown and The Danforth, The Forks in Winnipeg, and Vancouver's Gastown, among others.
Under dessert it's difficult to imagine another reference book wherein baked Alaska and crème caramel sit side-by-side with blueberry grunt, jambuster, Joe Louis, and Nanaimo bar.
The listing for flower provides the reader with the name of the official flower of each Canadian province and territory. Look up motto, tree, or bird, and the provincial and territorial mottos, trees, and birds are there as well.
And what thesaurus could call itself even remotely Canadian without at least a baker's dozen of synonyms for donut?
Hudson Bay Coat, McLaughlin Buick, Bricklin, Zamboni? Yes, they_re in here. So too are fiddlehead, Herring Choker, and Digby Chicken.
You'll have to find them.

Giants slugger Pablo Sandoval also hit an RBI single in his first game since May 2, pumping his right fist as he ran it out in the seventh. He went 1 for 4 and received a warm ovation each time he stood in to bat. The switch hitter came off the disabled list and returned to the starting lineup playing third base and batting third after undergoing May 4 surgery for a broken hamate bone in his left hand. Angel Pagan, who had his 15-game hitting streak overall and 28-game run at home snapped in Friday's 5-0 loss, had an RBI double in the seventh and singled in...
