WTF people!? 12 hours over the computer!

I spent like an hour and a half on HBT last night and thought I was over-doing it when I went to bed at 11:30.

You people are nuts

or brewing.

Honestly, working on the house, building a garage, and BREWING is what gets me off the computer. I enjoy playing, but it's not nearly as fun as some of the other stuff.

I had a dream one time with a mate of mine when we used to play UT and smoke lots of da ganga, we had an idea to design and market a specialist PC called a "Pr0nmeister" it would come installed with lots of pr0n links and have some interesting USB attachments that would err attach and make a virtual sex toy type thing.

We imagined it would make us millions for the sad dudes who never leave the PC, that was some good ganga

Hours of UT!! Even got into making some of our own custom levels. I designed one which had a "trash compactor" and you could knock people off a catwalk into the trash compactor. Then walk up and smash them. Never built it though. Takes many many hours to make a decent level.

Possibly the best game ever was UT, I played hours and hours of Instagib, it was the only one I bothered with on 56k, at least it gave you some chance against the LPB's. It was just a case of judging the lag right once.....

Im down to about 10 hours a week tops on the xbox now. Too many other things that are more important

One of my friends (One with a former WoW addiction) used to play FPS games way too much. He was big into Quake III and could really "Twitch Kill". I was lucky to come in second to him when we LAN gamed.

The worst was when my other friend's kid came over and cleaned all our clocks on his POS computer with horrible lag. Bunny Hopping all over... When he went to get a snack we all agreed to gang up on him. His dad still brags about it.

My wife went outta town for the weekend on April 1st. So I got off work at 6pm Friday, and played until 10:30pm Saturday. No sleep (well, micro naps), and just a few breaks here and there.

woke up sunday and got another 8 hours in before she got home.

I got a lot accomplished!

Haha right before WOTLK came out my GF went to Germany for a week. I leveled a Druid from 1-68 in that time.

Now I get bored of whatever game Im playing in an hour or two

 

[Homercidal]

I'm 91% to level 85 on my main. I am thinking that with some creative time scheduling (Now that the Wings are resting for round 2) I should be able to reach that AND continue to quest for Pebbles, the cute little rock companion, by this weekend. Provided the weather is still crappy.

 

[PijanyPole]

10 days in and I made the mistake of looking over the new patch notes. I did not reinstall, but man I want to give the improved rogue stealth options a try in pvp!

>bites knuckles<

 

[mattmcl]

I hadn't played for years until Cataclysm, then I signed on again. I spent some time flying around checking out the new terrain, then quit a week later. I've got a couple toons in the high 70's, I should just level them up to 85 and sell them.

Dude, roll up a Goblin! They are a blast at the starting area.

I hit 85 couple of days ago. I forgot I was getting close and had been doing a couple of dailies to work towards the Pebbles companion, and BAM! Right when I turned in my quests. Scared the heck out of me!

Now I can do some more instances that were locked out for me before.

Meh, WoW isn't my type of MMO! Granted, its a fun game, and super polished. It is definitely the highest quality MMO out there. I recently tried Rift. I got to 50, got bored and went back to Warhammer where the focus of the game is PvP. In the words of Rebecca Black, "Fun fun fun fuuuuuuun!" (sorry, it is Friday today).

 

[Fritobandito]

I started playing WoW shortly after it was released and quit recently. I basically got this nice gaming computer I built and haven't been doing any gaming lately. That should change shortly though once I get Crysis 2. Fear 3 comes out soon as well as Battlefield 3 and Elder Scrolls 5.

 

[PijanyPole]

I failed, reinstalling the client. Damn you wow!! >shakes fist<

at least pick a game thats worth while

It's an MMORPG R-tard. I am socializing.

It seems that they really have gotten the addiction levels right or wrong in this game.

My brother has come to live with us while he gets set up with a job.

He is acting like a junkie due to this game.

He doesn't wash.
He doesn't clean his clothes.
He doesn't sleep correctly.
He calls in sick to work because he's not able to get out of bed after playing into the early hours.
He is completely antisocial and spends all his time on WoW rather than taking part in real life.
He was late for work this morning after me telling him last night on my way to bed not to be too late.
He is in denial about how much of the game he plays.

Now I can't blame the game for all of this, but certainly before he brought his PC up to the house he was showering now and again at least.
My mother asked recently if he needed professional help.
I've seen junkies in the past and he's ticking so many of the addiction boxes that it is scary. If he needed money for this game I am convinced he would steal it....crazy game, I hate it for what it is doing to him.

Hey Eoin, your brother is here.

Don't forget Duke Nukem Forever is coming out in May! (err.. Maybe June??)

 

[Homercidal]

CPU and RAM in ON THE WAY! Finally I can crank everything up and behold the wondrous beauty that is WoW on a REAL computer!

 

[Fritobandito]

Ya I'm ordering some new stuff for my comp today. Going from gtx 460 to gtx 560 and getting a liquid cooler for my cpu so I can overclock it. Should run really fast.

 

[thataintchicken]

Yesterday was my last Raid in Wow.
Finances are too tight to spend $15 bucks on a game monthly.
Perhaps I'll play again, but not until I have a new job and stable income.

Next expense to cut: Brewing. <sigh>

 

[MeatyPortion]

I'm still laughing at the video where some chick deletes all her boyfriend's WoW characters while he's out getting smokes. He comes back, realizes what happened, and proceeds to beat the living **** out of....








... his computer. I laughed for hours.

That's just a retarded knee-jerk reaction. It's not the COMPUTER'S fault his characters got deleted...

WoW got me through 7 months in Iraq (6+ hours a day, 12+ every 4th day) sex with swmbo upon my return snapped me back into reality. Haven't touched WoW since.

 

[beersteiner2345]

It amazes me the amount of time people spend on this... I have no problem with it, but damn.

Go outside. lol

120+ degrees in Iraq or 65 in my housing unit... Wasnt too hard of a choice.

Point a hairdryer at your face, and throw some sand in it, and imagine not being able to escape that outdoors, and you have Iraq... No wonder no one can get along over there.
