So the 5 day and 3 day headstart is now both well under way, who's playing and what do you think ?

 

PErsonally I'm anjoying it a lot, or well I was untill yesterday when I got a message I was booted from server and since then my userid has not been recognized(all indications from other people who experienced the same is that our accounts got suspended even though communications from zenimax and the CSR is non existant, and so far all of the people who have experience the issue reported gold spammers the day before...).

 

Anyway, the game looks great, it plays great, some people complain about broken quests so far I haven't experienced this except for one, which is the frog race. For it's graphics it also has really good performance. because of people I play with I also play on the US server and there hasn't really been any issues with lag or anything. The megaservers work exceptionally well and while they could have learnt a bit more from Funcom on it, they work more than well enough. one of the smoothest MMO launches so far, but I guess we'll have to see what happens on the 4/4, and well besides the fact I can't play the game since their report system inadvertantly banned me .... which is kind of annoying at the moment.

 

The current 10 hour maintenance with no ETA yet would probably have irritated me a whole lot more if I hadn't already been unable to play since 24 hours before that :)

To bad GW2 looks like GW2 though. the graphical style and gameplay are neither anything I like. It's got way to much asian inspiration on the faces/models and armors. Also this thread isn't about GW2 so ;)

 

Screenshots also don't portray the looks very well

I am a huge Elder Scrolls fan. I was in the beta. I will not be buying this game and paying the subsequent subscription fees. The fact that this is an MMO, with a bunch of dudes jumping around like morons completely ruins the immersion for me. Sticking with single player for now.

It's not really like that though. but the world is a lot more alive. and the fact it's p2p and not f2p cuts the moron factor by about 99%

      Is a fast food restaurant a good metric to compare against?
    • Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details

      Grand Theft Auto VI pricing revealed alongside Ultimate Edition and pre-loading details by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last week, Rockstar revealed Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will be starting soon, and just a day ahead of that, now the studio has announced the official pricing for the highly anticipated game. This has been a hotly debated topic among fans and industry veterans for a long time, considering the game is expected to be the biggest entertainment product launch ever. The confirmed pricing for the Grand Theft Auto VI standard edition is $79.99, which Rockstar says gives access to the "single-player experience set in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the series yet." This follows what most of our readers thought would happen with the pricing too. At the same time, a $99.99 Grand Theft Auto VI: Ultimate Edition has been confirmed as well, which lands with "an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action threaded across all aspects of Jason and Lucia’s story." Pre-ordering will also give fans extra bonuses, including a Vintage Vice City Pack of cosmetic items as well as a free month of GTA+. Head to the official website of the game here to check out all the cosmetic rewards the Ultimate Edition and pre-orders bring. Interestingly, the studio does not mention Grand Theft Auto VI multiplayer at all in today's announcement. Perhaps this will arrive later, following the campaign launch, or the studio is keeping that reveal for a later date. Digital pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will begin on June 25, 2026, at midnight local time across regions for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. The title is slated to launch on November 19 on those same platforms. Pre-loading for Grand Theft Auto VI will kick off on November 12, giving players a week to get the game ready on their consoles. As for the physical edition, Take-Two has confirmed that this will be available without a disc, with the box only containing a download code inside. This will be purchasable starting November 12, giving players who take this route time to pre-load the title as well.

    • Anyone Here With Turbo Pascal Experience?

      By Almohandis · Posted

      Turbo Pascal was my first real programming experience more than 30 years ago at university. I mostly taught myself from the included examples and help documentation, because the university only taught the basic syntax and philosophy of Pascal, without going deeply into Turbo Pascal’s advanced features. I still remember when I discovered that I could embed assembly language directly into Pascal code, call BIOS functions, manipulate screen memory, use mouse interrupts, and control peripherals from my programs. That opened huge doors for me. Programming back then felt really fun, direct, and close to the machine. What I loved about Pascal was its readability and the almost instant compile time. Turbo Pascal was an amazing environment, but unfortunately Turbo Pascal for Windows 3 did not feel like it fully carried that legacy forward. Later, Delphi got things back on the right track after the messy transition to TP for Windows. Sadly, Delphi suffered from years of uncertainty as it moved from Borland to CodeGear and then to Embarcadero. That instability made many developers lose confidence in it, even though Delphi itself remained a powerful and productive tool. I still work with Delphi from time to time, but I definitely miss the old days of Turbo Pascal.
