  1. Thanx for posting that one, looks good, well.. promising, and interesting..

     

    I never really played DS1+2, although I know both games.. well.. from looks, and gameplay.. but by the time I found out about them, I already had Sacred, so they had no chance to distract my gaming-focus..

     

    currently, pretty much every new upcoming H&S ARPG game has a potential chance to become my next 'major' game

    (or everything else that looks like one, or similar enough)

     

    simply, because I don't play Sacred 2 anymore, can't play S1, and all 'new' games are yet to be released, somtime somewhere..

     

    well, not true 100% .. I play korean beta of Mythos atm, but it's a bit hard to deal with as it's not 100% in english yet, I can't use (or want to) use their cash shop, and they have some unique korean features in it we over here may not like that much.. (I hope US/EU thing will be different)

     

     

    regarding DS3 :

     

    who is the new Publisher and/or Developer again?

     

    I read about it recently, but forgot it^^ I only remember, when I read it's name:

     

    aha, sounds promising.. that company might be better for this job than last one..

     

    but can even think of it anymore, why I was like that. anyone got a link? can't find it atm :)

     

     

    edit:

     

    for DS3 , it's now Obsidian Entertainment (eg. Neverwinter Nights II, Star Wars:KOTOR2, Fallout:New Vegas..)

     

    instead of Gas Powered Games (Space Siege, and rest of entire Dungeon Siege Universe, 1-2)

  2. Ah, that's quite a number!

     

    Let's spam like there's no tomorrow and get the 200K posts milestone, everyone that isn't posting 200 each day is a slacker :)

     

     

    loool^^ hehe. well. feel free to do so, as long it's topic related :)'whisper, mytho.. sub mumble.. forum.. hype...' .. spam there, as much as you like :)

     

     

    EDIT: I forgot that I no longer have to edit each single post I make, I found a more convenient option in my Control-Settings ;)

  3. I'm signed in and waiting.........come on, it's been 10 minutes already!

     

    hilarious .

     

    but seriously, it's still one of the longest waiting around for a game to be released, ever.. 3 years, since Mythos got shut down the last time.

     

    wanna bet how long it takes this time? uh, no (positive thoughts, positive th..)

     

     

    let's just keep finger's crossed, that this time it's for real. (the comeback and relaunch I mean ofc)

     

    ETA for 'release' of Mythos is spring 2011 now, at least for European Version from what I've read so far.

     

    ETA for BETA start of Mythos, is not available atm, neither for US-Redbana nor around EU-Forgster, if I haven't missed something

     

    but hopefully it indicates it will start 'this year' or 'this fall', and that there won't be any new major delays and drawbacks..

  4. well, I'm not sure if this would be the right subforum for my question,

     

    but here goes, anyway :

     

     

     

    I was wondering,

     

    unless you have some private webspace somewhere,

     

     

     

    Where do you all go and upload your files,

     

     

    if it has to be quick, for many photos or screenshots at once,

     

    and if you want to link them on any forum, let's say wrapped into BBCode tag automatically etc, if supported and needed ?

     

    file-management would be also good, like sorting and storing into various subfolders or albums etc..

     

     

    but most of alll: it should cost very very little or even better, it should be free..

     

    AND your files should stay there online, even if no one is 'accessing' them in a while, they shouldnt be deleted all in a sudden maybe even already after quite a rather short time-frame..

     

     

    or: which services guarantee for let's say 1-2 maybe even more years ?

  5. Hello Masteff and Llama ,

    I got your PM's

     

     

    special greetings ofc also to everyone else,

    that showed some interest again in Mythos, recently -

     

    - as you're going to find this useful, and to answer some of your questions (I hope so) :

     

     

     

    I've got a special thing for you today, it looks sweet, let's hope it also will taste like that?

     

    anyway, hope you like it, and the beta - once we meet again, ingame !

     

     

    so, to do not only mince matters

     

    but to tease (d.a.r.k) matters :

     

    you know... after you mince it, and let it simmer gently for a little, you have to stir (d.a.r.k) matters up a little again .

     

    hehe, well, I'm not that much of a joker, so if I screwed up and you didn't got my little wordplay, at least I hope you'll all get yourselves a Beta-Key :D

    SINCE LAST FRIDAY, 3rd SEPTEMBER 2010, the last and most recent of all known new Mythos Publishers has opened it's Portals

     

    FROGSTER'S MYTHOS - FORUM & HOMEPAGE are now up and running..

     

    BETA APPLICATION ! just like as on redbana's Site for their localization published in US/NA,

     

    EUROPEAN'S now got their own Beta-Application Page as well, plus their related forum+HP :

     

    https://forum.mythos-europe.com/forumdispla...=2&langid=4 (english mythos-europe forum, direct link)

     

    branding-2.jpg

     

    and also, for a direct link to the beta registration page:

    Note, that you can change the language of both the HP, forum and Beta-Registration page:

     

    currently available, are English, German, and French ...

     

     

     

    I for one , registered on all of the different Beta-Application Forms..:

     

    first, there is HanbitON - and their Korean Version: (it is currently the only country with a beta that's up and running already for a while now)

    http://mythos.hanbiton.com/

     

    then, Redbana US - and it's own HP+Forum etc for US/NA:

    http://mfonline.ru/

  6. In a way, I am much like the Duke :

     

     

     

    Many of you may still remember me,

     

    and it's been quite some time since I've been here for the last time, don't you think?

     

     

    Yet, here I am, again, once more, again :D

     

    Well, like Mr. Nukem, if I would never die, maybe I'd never leave you, forever ;)

     

     

     

    what I mean is..

     

    .. it's quite some unstable times for me and my RL currently, one the one hand..

     

    .. on the other, it's not related to above at all, I just felt like I'm done and over with Sacred 2, (and still do..)

    .. and for a very small part, I got even disappointed and annoyed (if not to say even a little pis..ed) regarding FDM in a certain way,

    but I don't feel like I could or want to discuss that part, after all, you're still the one and only community that I like, best - and even because some disagreements etc, it's alright again now, so don't try 'bugging' me for it - no coment about what who and why ;)

     

    anyway, because of a mixture of all factors,

     

    I just thought that there was currently little, next to nothing left for me that I would like to post or read about..

    well, but fortunately, as I think, here there is, again :)

     

     

     

    because, this thread really shouldn't be about why I was gone and why I still might leave, and then will come back again :D

     

    in fact, it only really IS about Duke Nukem Forever :

    Hail to the King! 2K Games Announces Duke Nukem Forever® - Seriously Flying Pigs Spotted Heading Towards Penny Arcade Expo

     

    Legendary video game hero to finally return and kick-ass on consoles and Windows PC in 2011; playable demo at Penny Arcade Expo

     

    New York, NY - September 3, 2010 - 2K Games and Gearbox Software announced today that forever is nearly here, as Duke Nukem Forever® will officially make its long-awaited debut for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC in calendar 2011. Duke Nukem, the interactive entertainment industry's most irreverent and quoted character of all time, will bring his signature brand of babe-lovin', cigar-smoking, beer-chugging and ass-kicking action as he once again saves the Earth and our babes from hordes of invading aliens. In other shocking news, Duke Nukem Forever will be playable right now for all attendees 17 and older of this year's Penny Arcade Expo at the 2K Booth (booth #3417), giving the first hands-on experience with the game that was originally announced during the tail end of the Clinton Administration.

     

    "All great things take time... a lot of time," laughs Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "After a hiatus from the video game world, Duke Nukem is back and better than ever. The return of the King from the glory days of shooters will satisfy our patient, die-hard fans, as well as a new generation of bubble gum-chewing, flat top and shades-wearing bad-asses. Make no mistake about it - Duke Nukem Forever is a testament to the era of when shooters were bodacious and fun."

     

    Put on your sunglasses and prepare to step into the boots of Duke Nukem, whose legend has reached epic proportions in the years since his last adventure. The alien hordes are back and only Duke can save the world, again. Pig cops, alien shrink rays and enormous alien bosses won't stop our hero from accomplishing his one and only goal: to save the world, save the babes and to be a bad-ass while doing it. The King of All Shooters is back with over-the-top weapons, massive aliens and unprecedented levels of interactivity. This game puts pedal to the metal and tongue firmly in cheek, among other places. Shoot hoops, lift weights, read adult magazines, draw crude messages on whiteboards or ogle one of the many beautiful women that populate Duke's life; that is if you can pull yourself away long enough from kicking ass and taking names. Duke Nukem was and will forever be immortalized in gaming history, and this is his legend.

     

    "Hail to the king, baby! It's unbelievable, it kicks ass and it's totally going to happen!" said Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software, "Gearbox has enabled die-hard key Duke Nukem franchise builders and skilled veteran game makers to stand together and deliver. All gamers deserve a happy ending and after all of us gamers feeling the full range of emotions about Duke Nukem Forever, I am thrilled to be in a position with the trust, power and means to make it happen. Am I crazy? Balls of steel, baby, balls of steel!"

     

    Duke Nukem Forever is currently in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 system and Windows PC and is not yet rated by the ESRB. 2K Games has the exclusive, long-term publishing rights to the game.

  7. Howdy all,

    Since the end of Sacred 2 beta, I've barely kept up w/ the SIF or DM. cider_steve prodded me the other day so back for a bit.... especially after seeing Rotluchs post about Mythos reappearing. Thought I'd pop in here and see if there's any Mythos chatter to join in.

     

    So how's everyone been? Life doing okay for ya?

     

    masteff

     

    Hey masteff !

     

    good to see you backk, and on track again, so to speak ;)

     

    also it's always good to hear that I'm not the only one who hasn't lost all hopes regarding Mythos..

     

     

    can't wait to see you all ingame in the world of Uld again, the entire old gang ! ..and many new people ofc too..

     

     

    let's hope the beta will start soonerish,

     

    and that we won't be dissapointed...

  8. ..changed a bit here, and a bit there.. still looks like a mess, that starting post ?! ^^

     

    .. just like some of the english ingame translations , a bit weired hehe.. but they'll manage.. I hope.. have to..

     

    • ..added the link to the official russian Mythos page,
      they also have their separate login-page for the upcoming beta test ( I am not sure when or if it will start for them)
       
    • ..added a few links to one of the best fan sites..
      well.. the only ones I could find, tbh^^ but some of these were awesome good.. they're all offline now with few exceptions

     

    .. oh, and:

     

    they just recently posted the new english translation for all of the Bloodletter skills ..

    you can even look up their stats, what they do, etc..

     

    there were a few changes, also regarding the grafics effects of some skills.. but see for your self :

     

    http://www.mythos.com/page/Bloodletters-Skills.aspx

     

    for the other 2 of the 3 tiers, look into the forum, here:

     

    http://forums.redbana.com/forumdisplay.php?f=53

    (each Redhand, Crimsonate and Martialist Skills, have their stickied thread for discussion.. the pictures and descriptions are linked and offsite atm , ... *

     

    * .. found in the latest and exclusive TenTonHammer Interview , with Redbana's new Community Manager Demian Moreno:

     

    http://www.tentonhammer.com/node/88043

     

    BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT INFO , THE FIRST REAL NEW INFO - AND THIS TIME ITS A GOOD ONE , HOORAY ! :

     

    as CM Moreno later officially confirmed for the community:

     

    NO freaking creepy ENDURANCE system, like it was implemented into the korean version !

     

     

    And I was going to announce it myself, well done fixed

     

    As an added bonus announcement, I confirmed that there will be no "endurance" system in the North American release.

     

    In the Korean version, your character has an endurance meter that slowly drains as he enters dungeons, imposing penalties to those who run out.

     

    Well, no such system in our version.

     

    (a korean player from over there told me a few days ago, than in Korea, every MMO game must have this or a similar system by law - it is one of these strict ,

    strange korean gaming laws.. can you believe it? whoa. glad I live in Europe then^^)

  9. Diablo 3

     

     

    -- Crafting Artisans --

    why to invest into a crafting skill, if there's someone who does all the hard work,

    and learning it for you?

     

    ..a new, commented ingame video,

    explaining this new feature

     

     

     

    edit: why won't all the signatures be shown [centered] , even if using

    the correct BBcode tags.. ? looks ugly..

    and I like to 'center' news ;)

  10. Llama, is anyone we know going from German Forum?

     

    ;)

     

    gogo

     

    some of the german forum moderators were always there in the past , from what I can remember..

     

    also, other members of the german sacred community.. I suggest you just ask, over there ? :) (either on GSF.. maybe RAD clan forum ? I dont know)

     

    I met PowerPyx once, and a few of the other members... maybe I even saw one of the developers?^^ but I guess I didnt recognized them if this was the case, hehe..

     

    this year, unfortunately I wont be there..

     

    I'd love to..

     

    Torchlight 2, Diablo 3, Mythos , Magicka .... and 'maybe' ? ..a tiny small news of some sort about Sacred 3... :D would be right on time..

     

    don't know if you'd see something new about Inquisitor or Grim Dawn .. but its already tons of H&S ARPG for this year, awesome ...

     

    most games that have been announced prior to gamescom launch as Deep Silver's lineup this year, will be released 'soonerish'...

     

    so it would be the time, to announce new titles, yeah... well, Sacred 3 already was announced last year , also at gamescom or so?

     

    thats why I dont give up hope for this year, not yet.. although...

     

     

    EDIT: HMPF

     

    http://forum.sacred-game.com/showthread.php?t=72693

     

     

    So, da es nun auf unserer Pressekonferenz gesagt wurde:

     

    Deep Silver arbeitet an Sacred 3. Weitere Infos folgen zur rechten Zeit

     

    maybe could be translated the following way:

     

     

    "OK, as it has been announced at our press conference now:

     

    Deep Silver is working @ Sacred 3. More Infos will follow in good season "

     

     

     

    well. I am pretty sure, he meant 'NEWS' when saying Infos.. because that Deep Silver 3 has announced Sacred 3 and that 'someone' will have to develop it, was already a fact, since gamescom 2009 I thought ;)

     

    well, maybe it IS good news, at least to hear that they are still working on Sacred 3, and haven't scrapped the entire franchise / project :)

  11. the overworld that is shown at the end of this teaser, looks pretty much like the one in mythos.. no wonder:

     

    it's Fate<Mythos<Torchlight<Torchlight2 , in 'evolutionary' / chronolgy order..

     

    monsters.. look at the bigger ones at ~ 01:05 , they remind me of the Urax in Mythos..

    also the sound effect of that 'electrical nova' thing @ ~01:18 .. I heard that before

    01:21 , the tile-sets , ground textures.. etc.. that's also a typical Fate or Mythos Setting..

    starting near the end, @ ~01:25 , you'll then see the dungeons and more complex architecture again, that you might know already from torchlight 1, and also Diablo III screenshots..

    all over the entire lenght of the clip, you'll hear some of this wonderful Diablo-Like background music.. oh it's awesome..

     

    I cant say anymore who started to copy whose look, first^^ but they always look so similar..

  12. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLZ ! :

     

    http://twitter.com/runicgames/status/21398237127

     

    Runic Games Torchlight 2 Booth

    will be right next to Frogster's, showcasing Mythos ..

     

    well, that is.. terribly funny - or extremely sad . no, it's both...

     

     

    guess I'll just go, play all of them..

     

    looks like there's going to be enough time between actual the actual release dates of all of them ... TL2, TL:MMO, Mythos, Sacred 3, Diablo 3

     

    tho I personally mistrust Mythos and Sacred 3 , somehow ...

     

    edit:

     

    btw here's also the official gamescom trailer for Torchlight 2 :

     

    so Perfect World will have to do with TL2 as well, not only TL MMO it seems..

     

  13. PLAID.....

     

    Rotluchs you read this fantasy book from Piers Anthony?

     

    The_Color_of_Her_Panties

     

    The colour of the panties couldn't be answered because they were plaid.

     

    hehe.. no.. I haven't ever read that one book in particular,

     

    but yes I can vaguely remember that I onces started reading one of Anthony's books, a long time ago when I had a different 'taste' regarding books ...

    I cannot remember however, if I ever finished reading it, not even what the names of it's protagonists were..

     

    hmm.. I just googled a bit, this was bugging me. oh yes, I believe it must have been one of the Xanth-Saga books too,

    I now recognized the XANTH logo on one of the pocketbooks' cover-screenshots.. 'twas Heaven Cent , (Vol. 11)

     

     

    now, where did I just emebered that one slogan from, then ?

     

    ah yes:

     

    have you ever plaid an evil game called Death Spank before ?

     

    well I for one.... haven't .... but I've seen some of it's funny trailers , too bad it's not released for PC (yet..)

  14. At a guess I'd say its korean since thats where rotluchs said the open beta was being run.

     

    yeah thats right..

     

    in the game install folder, there is a file called language.dat

     

    you can open it with any editor and replace the line language=korean with language=english

     

    atm, I estimate that around 75-90% of the game is already translated from english to Korean..

     

    only some of the newly implemented stuff that wasnt there before is still korean, or very few buttons in interface. etc

     

    in this case, the korean text in the item description is the name of the set.

     

    I just found the questgiver that will give you the first piece of the second set, in zone 2..

     

    there, the set name is already in english.. it says from which town it is, and what its called.

     

    as you can see, it appears these are bound to the character, like the anchor stone (to teleport back to dungeon entrance) or quest items..

     

    you cant mule these or trade to other chars I guess.

     

    other items like uniques or epics / legendaries, you can share between chars..

     

     

    oh and if you think the even above low level set is crap, your wrong .. because check out this ^^ :

     

     

    I was very flattered, or better say I wasnt, when I had the chance to pick up some awesome FECAL MATTER! with my bare hands to store it for a quest-giver NPC: :)

     

    mythospoopN4AY7.jpg

     

    these mob dropped.. pengosaurus poop ^^

  15. Okay,

     

    so I started some questing with a guild member,

     

    we both created new level 1 chars and started from scratch :explode:

     

     

    there's tons of quest, and they even give decent experience..

     

     

    starting is a bit hard in the beginning, new identify scrolls will cost more, than most of the identifed items sold afterwards..

     

    you'll be low on cash for pots and anything else, so be careful on bosses and big mobs..

     

     

    in the first region , we found out there's an NPC initializing a loong questing-line all over the first regions in zone 1..

     

    but, to my surprise, after the few quests, a SET piece popped up for reward !

     

    at this moment I didnt know it was not random..

     

    so, in the end, we finished the quest-row late night - and had our first complete set collected. in total it has 8 pieces..

     

    nothing spectacular, tho.. will not wear the full set for long, I prefer other stats.

     

     

     

    atm however, I'm close to level 20 on my first char, a Tesla Widget Gadgeteer, who rocks every map + boss so far :(

     

     

    Here's a shot of all the set items, however:

     

    set2247BXL.jpgset12Y3V86.jpg

     

     

    will post a few more soon ;)
