Star Wars: The Old Republic - Trooper Dossier
- BERJAYA 1 Comment
Under the category of "better late than never", you can check out the Christmas Eve update for Star Wars: The Old Republic below.

Always on the front lines of battle against the Empire, Troopers seize every tactical advantage at their disposal to defend the Republic. With combat experience and intense training, Troopers can specialize to increase their battlefield prowess. The Trooper’s Advanced Classes will allow you to customize your Trooper to match your desired playstyle: improve your Trooper’s defensive tactics and capabilities to become a nearly unstoppable Vanguard, or go all-out on offense and become a deadly Commando.

In addition, several other details about the Trooper class are now available:

  • Meet one of the Trooper’s more irreverent companions, Tanno Vik, an ex-military demolitions expert who really loves his job.
  • Humans aren’t the only species who step up to defend the Republic. The indomitable spirit of the Zabrak has lead many of these aliens into the ranks of the Republic’s finest. Learn more about this proud race on the Zabrak Inhabitants page.
  • Troopers are given access to the high-powered Rendili Hyperworks BT-7 Thunderclap, a heavily-armored starship powerhouse upgraded with state-of-the-art tech requisitioned by Republic Special Forces.
  • The Trooper’s dedication to the Republic and its ideals fuels a powerful drive for victory, even in the face of overwhelming odds. Watch the Trooper Class Video to see what drives a Trooper – and what they do to those who threaten the Republic.

The Deep Roads are a dwarven built network of tunnels that joined the underground cities together. However, the darkspawn rule the Deep Roads now. Every dwarf who ventures out into the deep roads and makes it back says that it gets worse with each passing year, the foulness spreading a little further. You can view two concept shots below.

The UnderGarden 87 Second Review @ Voodoo Extreme
- BERJAYA 0 Comments
It only took me a month and a half, but I finally wrote up my brief review of The UnderGarden, a "Zen-like" casual game from Vitamin G. Since half of the review is about smoking pot, it should be pretty evident how little I took away from the experience.

Earthrise Release Date Announced
- BERJAYA 11 Comments
Bulgarian-based Masthead Studios today announced that their futuristic MMO, Earthrise will be available through digital distribution on February 4, 2011.

“The Masthead team is thrilled for the fans who have been following Earthrise closely to now be able to play the game that they have been so eagerly awaiting,” said Atanas Atanasov, producer of Earthrise and director of Masthead Studios. “We have worked incredibly hard to make Earthrise the best sandbox MMORPG on the market, and we can’t wait for players to fully experience all of our hard work and become immersed in Enterra.”

Earthrise is a post-apocalyptic, sci-fi MMORPG set in the distant future and it features a skill-based advancement system and player-driven economy.

Masthead lists the top Earthrise features as:

  • Unique sandbox environment, allowing players’ actions to influence the entire game world.
  • Distinctive, high-tech post-apocalyptic setting.
  • Sophisticated Player vs. Player (PvP) mechanics.
  • Dynamic third-person combat featuring dynamic targeting, customizable power armor and hundreds of high-tech weapons.
  • Deep crafting mechanics that allow players to design and manufacture unique items from blueprints and raw resources.
  • Friendly to casual players, with challenges designed for the hardcore audience.
  • Single, massive world. Earthrise will run on one server for players in all regions.

Minimum requirements to run the game:

  • OS: Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista SP1, Windows 7
  • Free hard drive space: 20 GB
  • CPU: 2.4+ GHz Single Core Processor
  • RAM: 2 GB
  • Video Card: NVIDIA 7800GT+ or ATI Radeon 9800 SE 256-bit
  • High bandwidth internet connection (DSL, Cable)

The payment model for the game is still unclear and no information on that was included in the press release. In an interview with Massively last September, producer Atanas Atanasov seemed to imply a no-subscription model like Guild Wars'.

The Morning Juberish
- BERJAYA 9 Comments
Ahoy! Welcome back to the land of the living... and the dead. Because we don't discriminate between the living and the dead here at VE. For example, I'm using a corpse as a foot stool right now, but I'd just as happily use a human as a foot stool. So I was thinking . o O For $1 Million would you participate in a drug study in which 1/2 the participants would turn into a monkey, and the other half would get the placebo? I think I would, because even if you get the monkey placebo it would still probably be acceptable to fling poo.

New Patch For World Supremacy; Changes To AI & More
- BERJAYA 0 Comments
Shrapnel Games' turn-based strategy World Supremacy has been patched up to version 1.05, which features some new goodies to help you in your quest for ... World Supremacy.

  • Increased weapon speed for torpedoes and cruise missiles.
  • Fixed: When starting a game it was possible to have two Fabrication Complexes in the same region.
  • Fixed: Added hotkeys to the help text.
  • Fixed: Game Over window was not displaying when human player was killed.
  • Many general AI improvements.
  • Rocket Artillery now have a movement of two.
  • Fixed: AI was not loading Sea Transports.
  • Fixed: AI was not always landing its planes even when they had remaining movement.

The most important aspect to the patch is of course the changes to the AI. The AI will be stronger, and more aggressive, even using Transports to hit the player from behind his lines. In addition to the 1.05 patch Malfador Machinations has made available a Multiplayer Map pack, along with a new demo that incorporates all the changes made to the game since its original release. World Supremacy is available as a downloadable game for Windows, selling for $29.95.

The Monday Divinedish
- BERJAYA 10 Comments
The Christmas holidays feel a little off this year because of the 25th falling on a Saturday. Most of us had Friday the 24th as the official holiday but I believe the UK folks have today and tomorrow off. Makes me wonder if they waited until today to open their presents.

Presents are tricky. If you make wish list, it takes away the surprise factor and makes gift-opening less exciting. On the other hand, if you don't, you run the risk of getting a Really Stupid Present. A friend of mine found these prank gift boxes online that are supposed to make you think you're getting one of those. The funny thing is that his kids were disappointed when they realized that they weren't really getting a Pet Petter nor a Dream Griddle Alarm Clock.

Did Santa bring you anything good this year?
