No news I guess. Everyone's playing. That's my guess on why no Pro Tips comics either.
I'm sure there is enough material for a comic as well as to post some news about pvp bag changes etc. so I was kinda wondering what happened as well because I really enjoy the podcast, besides teamspeak the only time I hear "nerds" as myself talk about the game since nobody around is playing this game.
Ya but still even though "Mr. Neverhasanythingpositivetosay" Justin Lowe is moving, is he the only writer on this site? I mean this is supposed to be our MMO-Champion. Give us something already!
Hey guys! I just wanted wanted to clear a few things up, the first post on the front page was stickied to the front page because it had the EA earnings call and the PTR notes for 1.1.2. But yes, the news cycle has been slower than we'd all like it, just look at the dev tracker highlights we (Infamous) does on Thursdays.
We've also had quite a few of our regular staffers have real life issues come up, and of course we're all playing the game a whole bunch; we getting some really amazing content for you guys, we've got some really good stuff coming up at the end of the month from our editorial staff! We're also working on some great interviews that will be asking the hard hitting questins you expect to be asked!
I really apprecate the feedback from everyone, we're recording a podcast tonight and we'll have it up tomorrow! Hopefully Justin will be unpacked in the next week or so and we'll be back up to regular speed!
On a news-style page, stickying a post is probably *NOT* the best idea. People will always look for the top-most entry, and if it is the same one, it is assumed that nothing new has been posted.
If you want it to continue to be prominent, either mention it in later posts, or link it the way you did Companion Gifts in the top-right pane.
Good suggestion! We're working on some ideas to remedy some of these editorial highlighting issues, so any suggestions are appreciated. The most important thing is always what is new in the game via patch notes, items, NPCs, etc. in the DB -- that is what people want to see -- and we want them to find that info quickly. The downside is that a lot of other content gets "pushed down" blog style.

Now I know why the article below was posted 2 days later then the top one but now it makes sense.
Hard hitting questions? That would be awesome, because every interview I hear is "this game is awesome, tell us about how you came up with the idea for ...."

Posted 2/7/2012 2:41:38 AMI am pretty sure the reason there has not been any new post is because MR. Darthhater (Justin Lowe ) himself is moving.
This was mentioned a couple times on gamebreaker.tv during the republic show.
