Well you can bind other keys to it, I use A and E for spells on my pom, since I'm not even sure poms get the 2 additional directionals. As a melee you'll want all 5 in a decent spot to press, but that doesn't mean you have to use defaut ^^.

Finally fat people are properly represented in a game.

Some of those directions on the assassin combos are wrong, not many of them are two directions to complete the combo. Unless I'm wrong and you can activate combos but just sequences of attacks.

Elerion · 05-14-2008, 04:59 PM

Combo list includes the initial swing that happens when you push the combo button. For your regular 2-button combo it works like this:

You push combo, character swings one direction, and you get the popup saying what buttons to push.
You push the first button, character swings that direction.
You push the second button, character performs combo finisher in that direction.

So a combo that requires you to push 2 directions will actually involve 3 directional attacks. That's what impressed me about the site, they had noted which side the initial swing of each combo was on, even though there's no way to tell for sure ingame without testing each combo a few times and noting damage results on different shield settings.

The people at BestBuy and Gamestop just handed me a bonus card. There is absolutely nothing linking my random bonus cards to those specific pre-orders. And all of my three bonus codes are on one account so if I subscribe to that one account and don't cancel they will hopefully all stay.

Confirmed this works. (Thanks Krinkled!) I had pre-ordered from Gamestop and no intent of cancelling. I have no problem dropping $10 on a rhino though, went to Best Buy, got the pre-order box which comes with a piece of paper with a key inside ($10, you use your receipt as credit towards the game post release) added the key to my account and boom:

To add some fuel to the fire, the Best Buy pre-order box doesn't say shit about while supplies last. This includes the box and the card. I'm another one of the people "in" so I'm not bitching nor do I care, pointing out a fact though.

From what I've heard, on the card it has something like 'Some restrictions apply, see registration page for details.' If you check it out, it informs you of the the limited time offer.

madmaan · 05-14-2008, 05:08 PM

Vehn · 05-14-2008, 05:09 PM

Correct on that part! Its exactly some restrictions apply. Unfortunately theres nothing like that on the outside of the box but hey I'm in it for the rhino!

I define my excellent AoC guild by the forums having more posts in the "Role Playing" forum than the "General Discussion" forum - and not a "u"-typing retard to be seen for miles.
