Just when things seemed to be cooling down and rulings were all in...
Plus we're having fun with random MMO questions the hosts didn't know were coming!
With Overwatch having some recent woes, there's certainly space for a strong competitor.
The gaming industry is a bit of a mess right now.
Stay up the great work! You realize, lots of individuals are hunting
around for this information, you can aid them greatly.
Well my question is the following.
Can i expect the F2P Cast to have a female host so that we can have a female approach to mmos and at the same time have have lots of sammiches? (many have asked this but i really want sammiches)
PS. Only requirement would be a sexy voice
Once again great show, I love the show, I think this is better than those 700 channel on my TV, but I think you guys really need a female gamer in there. just a thought...... :D
Well I guess you guys already know my question, but I ll say it anyways: Hey F2p cast, when is there going to be a female gamer in the F2p cast? And also how would it make you guys feel? Oh this gonna be good. :D
For the bombs, I wanna give a Da-bomb for League of legends, I use to play the game 2 years ago, but due to stuff in real life I stopped for basically a year. Now I recently went into the game once again, its just awesome, looking at how many new heroes came out, a new game mode, I just love it. Although I won't spend so much time on it, but definitely a game i ll drop in regularly.
Good luck to you guys on finding a female gamer. hehe :D

I have two questions! :D
Have you guys traveled anywhere around the world?
and are you guys open to having members of the public maybe joining your F2P cast? maybe have a user special? something that :D
sephiroth is a (srry for cursing) f*** asshole i threw him 3 times back and he kills me like 10 times in the process of that...
Answer to the question of the week : if you could remake any game what game would you remake?
a freaking THE bomb as big as russia and asia together to Team Fortress 2
reasons :
1.) it isnt pay to win , what you can buy in the store you can easily craft
2.) they are now introducing the workshop to players to MAKE content to be IN the game so the community can be actually a part of the game
3.) fun community , so much fun to play and they are so nice
4.) the variety of guns and hats and such
5.) its messing around... if thats not something nothing is...
Back when IP banning MMOs are still new to many players in the internet, players that are IP banned have asked why they were country banned and asked to make a petition against IP bans in public mmo forums. I'm not saying names here to avoid others being offended. But at that time, playerbase from IP exclusive countries have not taken the pleads from Asian, Europe and middle east playerbase politely.
They were all, "U mad, Bro?" or "sucks to be you!" or " F**k Asian countries and their gold farmers." Now back to 5 years ago, when I was younger, I did not take these insults lightly. Now listening to that part of the podcast, it's like digging back the bad gaming past. The ones that I have to get over and pardon fellow players. And yes this is like a painful flashback.
It's a good thing that you guys mentioned it. I'm just trying to shed some light to you guys that in certain countries other than yours, these countries didn't have the same benefits compared to yours, in all of these expects, PvP, Ping levels, Cash top-ups, and Subscription-base wise.
I'm glad that you guys are teaching people from other countries not to turn a blind eye and overlook the inconvenience that players from other countries have to go through, and also the bias-ness service providers do.
Greetings from Brunei.
1.) Do you all sit in the same room to make these videos or is it an over the phone/net chat discussion?
2.) Do you control the website directly? Because I always notice that gamelists are never updated. What I mean is, some websites have a top 10 list based on votes, or web host choice. Now, lets say in 2003 a ton of people voted game X, then the market drops today and most of those people quit playing the game, however it is almost impossible to vote for another game, as X retains this mass amount of votes and sits on the top 10 list, even if it has been shut down, or lost massive popularity. That would require the website managers to reset the voting, and start new. OR keep the votes, but mark it in the "2003" top 10, and start fresh voting for 2011.
Do you plan to do that? That would be awesome, because right now your list of top 10 has more competition.
On that note:
3.) In each genre (FPS, MMORPG, MOBA) what are your top 3 picks?
4.) IS Serjio from the cast, the same serjio that runs around posting comments here and in youtube? I swear I am being trolled by an imposter.
I will give my thoughts on a few things you asked us about this week.
1) Having your chars wiped after beta`s.
I prefer the company`s allowing players to keep thier chars.
Nothing is worse than having everyone start back at lvl 1 , This makes the first 2 weeks almost unplayable if everyone starts over.
Lag sometimes becomes an issue due to over flooding that they never experienced in Testing.
All quests become a fight just to get the number of items or kills you need to complete it.
( These few small things can make or break a fan base for those never in the testing phase)
2) Spirit Tales - I myself was in the beta and got hooked for about 5 days. Just had a diffrent feel to it and really did keep me entertained for that time.The lack of open worldness did take its toll in the end and i left.
Great Kids Game for low end PC,s
3) What i want to know about you guys
Just how we can figure out where you guys are to join you in a game during the week or weekends.
Great show , keep them coming !
Your friend Inflictious !
