In co-operation with Raiding Research, we're trying to do a personality type study on players playing in raiding guilds. The tool used is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, which in our experience is able to produce good data with very little variation from test to test for the same person.
We got invited to DigiExpo, which is the largest trade fair in consumer electronics in Nordic Countries. It was a short notice but Arx and xenophics visited the event this weekend, and had a chance to meet a lot of new faces and experience the event at Helsinki Exhibition & Conference Centre, Finland.
Lazei and Ilonie have finally recovered from their Blizzcon 2010 trip physically and mentally. Here is their journal on the event. Naturally they (and the whole Paragon) would like to thank Blizzard again for inviting us, as well as all the awesome people Lazei and Ilonie had the chance to meet. Let's keep in touch!
As some of you might have noticed, we've got a shiny new domain - http://www.paragon.fi/.
The old one will continue to work for a long while still, but you might want to update your bookmarks and cookies before 2012!
Killed Nefarian in Cataclysm Beta. The fight itself wasn't that special and some of the mechanics felt frustrating. The floor bugged (no blinking or charging) and the pets kept dying while on the pillars. We are still interested to see the hard mode though. While waiting for it you can go and watch our video on the kill. POV's are:
We managed to get Al'akir down during tonight's beta testing. The boss was really interesting with a few different phases and some really cool (looking) mechanics. The last phase required some thought but eventually we nailed the tactics and killed the boss. There was also a bug with the storm clouds sometimes being invisible and ticking multiple times in one second, killing the people instantly.
The raid testing for Cho'gall started on Thursday all of a sudden, but we were kind of expecting for it despite no announcement being made. We got a raid group together pretty quick and went to town on it. Not only does Cho'gall have the ability to corrupt players and turn them into monstrosities, he's also able to cast raid-wide mass disconnects and cause crashes. We gave up after knowing the basics of the fight and occasionally spending 15+ minutes after a wipe getting everyone back inside. The instances were quite bugged out, but it's understandable since the game is still in beta testing.
