Privateless
« on: May 22, 2005, 12:45:02 am »
After Blizzard re-implemented the Player vs. Player Honor system in it's next-to-last patch, ranks (which are publicly viewable next to the player's name on their name tag) were also added.

Depicted here is a player named 'less' with the rank of 'private.'

I found it kinda funny. :)

Ha ha, when I realized that Private was one of the ranks and that it was shown on name tags, I immediately tried to do that. Obviously someone had the idea before me. :(

Whisper Major Pain and tell him hey for me.

Damn these Blizzard patches, it'll take me days to update when I start playing again.

I don't think there is a major. I've seen Sergeant Major though.

I'm pretty sure Corporal is a rank. Most of the upper ranks start with "Knight" and have whitty and clever conjunctions like "Captain." I think their ranking system needs a bit of work. The alliance one does anyway, hehe.

Wow, you have like a way better computer to me and the screenshot shown has way inferior graphics compared to what I see while actually playing GW. :O

trust, those screenshots were saved pixil by pixil (with no added resolution), so the graphics ARE going to look crappy. I've played Guild Wars. WoW's graphics are WAY better. Why do you think it ranks so much higher as a MMORPG? :P

large pre-established fan base. Blizzard had free advertisement at the top of all their currently popular games.

So? Guild Wars (assuming it was as good) would have spread through the gamer grapevine by now. Face it. Wow's better. :)

Did you set the graphics to Extra High and using a big resolution?

Thing made the account Punishment and he is working to get it to corporal.
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

My graphics are 100% cranked. I'm using a $400 video card, so they better be. :) The screenshots are saved in .tga format in a screenshots folder. If I simply paste them into paint, they look a lot better.

Here's some better screenshots (still not very good because of reduced quality in the JPG format, but it's better):

It's really hard to put it in perspective if you've not played it (AFTER Beta. It was beta for a reason, trust. ;P)
