That's the one I want.

I'm tired of having to carefully choose spells for my sorceress.

Player limit of 120? has the current limit been a problem for some one?

Bind the player list to the P key.

This is a goal?!

I wish NWN2 and MTB had the stability of LOTR online and I wish LOTR online was as fun to play as NWN1, heck I wish NWN2 was as fun to play as NWN1.

Its all empty promisses, wahy wasn't transition fixed in the MOTB version?
OH, thats right they had to make money FIRST before they fix anything....I'm such noob.

There has recently been a great and encouraging openness between the NWN2 developer and PW admin communities that I have not witnessed before. I cannot speak to (in)actions of the past, nor pledge that the future will be any different for multiplayer than what we have experienced to date. I will say that OE generally and Rob McGinnis specifically are investing time and attention to the concerns of PWs at the moment, and that Dasaria2 and other top PWs are being given a forum to express their desires concerns that has been lacking in the past.

Perhaps I'm just being naive, but I am very hopeful for what is happening right now. Is it too late for NWN2? I don't know, but I have a new and more positive view of the developer.

IMHO MotB was a success, and it has bought them time/resources to do things they might have hoped to achieve from the get-go. I don't know if anyone from OE reads our boards, but if you do, thank you. And I hope you are twice rewarded for every dollar you invest in the PW community.

Well, let's see what 1.11 and 1.12 actually deliver before all is forgiven.
