11,501,480 | null | comment | developer2 | 1,460,683,590 | Or... not. MMOs are "Massively multiplayer _online_". They are expected to require mandatory updates. Anyone who is opposed to the very concept should avoid MMOs entirely and enjoy single-player campaigns and LAN networking with friends. Games evolve. Expecting every game to maintain a live production environment of what - every previous release? - is simply unrealistic. WoW is bad enough with its expansions where different subsets of players can access any given area. Can you even imagine people complaining about not having access to play Season 1 of League of Legends? It makes no sense - to the business or the average player - to have tiny populations on old server versions that need to be maintained.<p>>> its best not to get too involved in games where you have no control or have no possibility of control over the infrastructure<p>Unless you are a professional competitive player, why would anyone become so deeply connected to a _game_ such that future updates, and/or the publisher shutting down the game entirely, would result in such a vehement reaction? If you're the type to cry "lawsuit" over a game getting updates, you may want to avoid playing such games.<p>tldr; For some people, "its best not to get too involved in games where you have no control" probably starts and ends with not installing an MMO to begin with. | null | 11,501,180 | null | [

11,501,491 | null | comment | dredmorbius | 1,460,683,803 | William Stanley Jevons, <i>Money and the Mechanism for Exchange</i> (1876) discusses many of the characteristics of money and exchange, including in chapter V, the properties which make money useful: utility and value, portability, indestructability, homogeneity, divisibility, stabilityof value, and cognizability. The merchandise stolen for use as "street coin" as described in the article meet most or all of these characteristics.<p>Jevons' work is recommended -- it's a classic study of the subject, but one which still carries strong weight.

11,501,509 | null | comment | deepsun | 1,460,684,299 | I believe you're talking about GCE (Compute Engine), while @kordless is talking about Container Engine.<p>I've tried Containers with Google App Engine Flexible Environment (in beta now) and liked that it's much more customizable than standard GAE. Basically, you just need any Docker container listening on port 8080.
But deploy time took 10-20 minutes, so I'm still preferring Standard. Hopefully they'll fix that before GA release. | null | 11,501,448 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

We don't even have secure hardware available. Academia will experiment with that. Some industries will care enough to apply it.<p>But in a mass-produced software/hardware?

After about Burning Crusade they were under increasing pressure to allow players of all play styles and skill levels the ability to "see the content", which lead eventually to Raid Finder and gated progression. This ripped the last shreds of immersion away from the world and left the bare, creaking treadmill of "get tier X, farm tier X+1 tokens, get tier X+1, farm tier X+2 tokens..." exposed, which (for me) is what finally killed the game. | null | 11,448,501 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
