DC Universe Online 1000% growth

DC Universe online went free on the November 1st...kinda. The game didn't really run that day at all, but on the second day, well it didn't really run that day much either. The same with the third  or the fourth. OK so the game has been less than stable since it's free release, but we now know why. In a recent press release DC told us that the population has grown over 1000%! Holy jelly donuts Batman, I'm no longer annoyed with the long wait times to long in, the over crowded areas and the simple fact that a lot of the time you can't even long in. After all who would have expected that much growth in such a short time. They are actively patching and the game has become more stable and the servers are up more than they were, so with any luck they'll have their problems worked out soon.

It also shows something else. The game is good! Super customizable characters, fun dungeons, not to mention the fact that you get to not only meet but fight along your favorite DC characters. If you haven't downloaded this game yet and you like DC, comic books, or are just looking for another mmo to eat your time up while you wait for 4.3 WoW patch this is worth picking up.

Final Fantasy XIV The Road to Ninja

That's right a the road to being a ninja, because we all know nothing beats a ninja. So how do you become a ninja? First: You have to have a level 30 rogue, and a level 15 Pugilist. Second: You need to be done with the rogue story quest with the three treasures.( Found that out last night the hard way) Third: (unconfirmed) Do the story quest Sylph Management. You've probably already got it done, but still a lot of people told me I needed this one done. Forth: Once the first and second things are done go and talk to Jacke at the rogue's guild and he'll set you up with the quest chain for ninja.

Another Day Another Bounty 10.24.13

That's right it's a new day and another bounty has been released for all of us hunters in the Borderlands 2 Loot Hunt. Today's bounty is DJ Tanner , he can be found in Magnys Lighthouse . This hunt is another that is in the Captain Scarlett DLC. He should drop the " Tidal Wave " that can be used for the community bounty. Speaking of the community bounty, today's community bounty is Sand Worm Queens . You may remember fighting one while doing the My life for a sand sandskiff mission  early on in the DLC. A Sand Worm Queen is what leaps out of the sand and swallows Lionel's engine capacitor. I found the best place to find the Sand Worm Queen in Wurmwater just north of the Rustyard exit in a crater. You actually have to hope out of your skiff for them to spawn and they don't always spawn. I have a picture of the location down below.

Wildstar goes F2P

Another MMO is going free to play. That's right recently the makers of WildStar have announced it's going free to play. I don't know if it's just going completely free and just charging people for the extras in-game or if you'll still have to buy the game but they are getting rid of the monthly fee. Really you didn't need to pay a monthly fee, I know I didn't for the short time I played the game. All you had to do was buy (with in-game money) the special tokens that would let you in-turn buy game time. That's right, it's the system that WoW picked up, which kinda makes me wonder if WoW is going to be going free sometime in the future. hmmmmm. Anyway Wildstar is supposed to be going free this fall.  So if you haven't played or like me got tired of playing, this fall might be a good time to hop back into the game.
