  1. A My Little Pony based MMO, has been set in motion. I feel as a large brony community we should all offer whatever creative resources we can to help in their quest!

     

    http://www.legendsofequestria.com/team

     

    Check it out! If you can draw, write out lore, program, please go their site and see if they could use a hoof of help! This could be amazing but it needs to be done right, I know we can help!

    Yeeeeeah about that cake bro...

     

    It was all a lie.

     

     

    BUT WELCOME TO THE FORUMS!!!

     

    The rp section is where we role play, gaming discussion can be found in the ever free forest, pony talk goes on in sugar cube corner, and all creative artsy things are in Octavias hall.

     

    I'm Solarwind, been here for like over a year now (still don't have over 700 bro-hoofs, and I lost my pegasus rank a little bit ago, kinda irked about that.) But I'm a mellow, chill guy. Hit me up if you wanna game or chat or whatever! Add me!

  4.  

     

    Nice! how soon, cos I need to put money on my account to get the time, but as soon as I have a fellow brony to play with I'll jump on (however I do tend to go off on my own a fair bit)

     

    I'm hoping soon, school is going back real soon, I tend to Pvp mostly as PvE has never really been my thing.  

     

    Gotta get dat 2200 rating!

  5.  

     

    Oooh! Which server do you play on? I am thinking of starting playing again and as most players on the Alliance side are immature little dicks who think sex talk etc is funny or drugged up losers, I ALWAYS play Horde, so what server are you on?

     

    Always Horde! Never rolled an Ally.

     

    I play on Arthas, check some of my toons in the armory! I'll link em' in a bit. My account went down recently but I'm getting it back up ASAP. Four 90s so far, with an 87 about to make five.

    Hello! Your topics were similar to this one, so I've merged them together. In the future, please use the almighty search function. Thank you! 

     

    I saw someone post in this forum and I got super excited...

     

    I thought I was gonna meet other WoW bronies...

     

    I am dissapoint...

     

    Anyway hmu, soundclick117@gmail.com my real id.  I play Horde!

    This is something I will keep track of. I assume though, that this is mainly being made for PC's at the moment? That is the only disappointing part, since I do not have a gaming PC. Hopefully down the line though something can happen.

     

    It uses the Kinect sensor to keep track of your legs. I believe there is a video of them using it the elder scrolls games! 

     

    let me try to find it...

     

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxwknXZ_fR0

     

    Yeah. From their FIRST prototype, before they started using it with the Rift. I can't wait to play some free roam games on it XD

  8.  

     

    SO. YEAH. THIS

     

    Basically, it's a treadmill that works with the Virtuix Omni when working with the Rift, and Razer Hydra. Can bring us closer than ever, to a real. vr. experience.

     

    Many videos on you-tube have been posted... But I feel like the Omni isn't receiving the publicity it deserves, the Oculus is, the Omni should too!

     

    As bronies, we have always been on the front line of change, right there. Now it is time to change again.

     

    Please, support the omni! Like it on facebook and check out it's website! The kick starter reached it's 150k goal in three hours. And stopped at over a million dollars!

     

    As a gamer, I 100% beleive Virtual Reality to be the next gaming frontier, and if the Omni goes mainstream some other company WILL try to 1-up it. Pushing the gaming evolution even further.

     

    And behind that push for the Omni and Virtual reality... is us... the bronies... the Dark Knights.

  9. I MISSED TELLING ABOUT THE NEWS!!!

     

     

     

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 

     

    AGH I FAILED YOU

     

     

     

    Take the job back you blasted robot. I fumbled and burned. I don't have what it takes to post the news.


     

     

    Updated the topic title with the news. Anyway, this is awesome, can't believe they announced the date so early! That is seriously a long time from now, like 4 months from now... still, with the rate months have been going by for me, it should be here in no time! But seriously, this will probably be an excruciating wait for all of us, hopefully we will all weather through it intact.
     

     

     

    I love you.

     

    I want to make a follow up thread, asking what you all hope to get out of the Season 4 beginning, and end episodes. Along with everything in between. But I'll leave that to Flutterhooves, he's great at those sorts of things.

  10. If you don't know what it is, here is an article describing it.

     

     

     

    Since 2010, a YouTube channel called Pronunciation Book has regularly posted videos with a simple white background and a word in black font. Over it, a voice teaches non-English speakers how to say certain words and phrases in English—“Sausage McMuffin” or “yield.” The young male voice also teaches viewers how to have simple English interactions like “How to State an Unpleasant Fact” and “How to Politely End a Business Meeting.”

    In the past three years, this channel has posted more than 700 videos, gained 27,000 subscribers, and even inspired a parody account. But a week ago Pronunciation Book abruptly stopped what it’d been doing and started posting one creepy, cryptic video a day, counting down from “77” until Sept. 24, 2013. The videos show the number and then the same voice delivers a couple of seemingly random sentences and then ominously concludes, “Something is going to happen in X days.”

    It’s an unexpected and bizarre about-face that makes little sense and is a little bit scary.

    The only people that seem to be dissecting this weirdness is 4chan’s /x/ board, devoted to conspiracy theories and the paranormal. /x/ has compiled the “77 Days Research Document,” a 36-page Google Doc where the members of the board have pooled their information about Pronunciation Book. They’re trying to uncover who is behind the channel, what the cryptic messages mean, and anything else they can find to make sense of the channel’s abrupt change.

    The messages in the countdown videos thus far have been:

    77: “Something is going to happen in 77 days.”

    76: “I’ve been trying to tell you something for 1,183 days.”

    75: “I’m awake now. Things are clearing up. I’m not saying the words anymore.”

    74: “I’ve got a minute, let me tell you what I think is going on.”

    73: “Tension between the districts has spiked in the last few months.”

    72: “You can see it in the markets.  Everyone’s ready for a storm.”

    69: “No one is ready. He watches the market.”

    68:  “I’m not talking about a disaster, I’m talking about a love triangle.”

    And the latest video, posted Friday, says:

    67: “We fell into the jungle for a summer of dollar crime.”

    4chan users have also tried to pinpoint the location of the speaker in the videos—narrowing it to the United States based on police sirens heard in the background of some of the videos, and then further narrowing it to New York based on weather patterns and a thunderstorm, which can be heard in one video for the word “Radio.”

    There is even an effort to run the silence in the videos through an audio spectrograph analysis, to determine whether the resulting images form some kind of picture.

    qkGVjuY.png
     

    The other sentences in the videos, when pieced together, tell a vague yet fairly disturbing story centering around some seemingly military characters on a mission in a jungle—there’s a main unnamed protagonist, “Chief,” Jackie, Trish, Ptolemy, Don, and more. Strung together, a lot of it reads like poetry, or like excerpts from a Tim O’Brien Vietnam novel:

    I can't RSVP until I have a disguise.

    We arrived at the brasserie dressed as caterers.

    Her svelte figure caught the minister's eye, just as 

    We retreated to the jungle as fireworks lit the southern sky.

    It was the first of several times Jackie would blame things on Belarus.

    What does it all mean? Where is this leading? We only have 67 days left to figure it out. The speculation on 4chan and in the Google Doc is wild and growing. The leading theory connects Pronunciation Book to the founders of Howcast and Movements.org, Jason Liebman and Jared Cohen, but offers little explanation about what their endgame is. 

    It could be viral marketing for a film, book, or video game, but if so, the commitment required to lie low for three years is insane. It could be that the Pronunciation Book was a real channel that was recently sold to a PR firm using it to promote a product, although that wouldn’t explain the strangeness of the example sentences in the actual pronunciation videos that were posted from 2010 until now. As someone in the Google Doc said, “It could be a fucking Post-It commercial.”

    Pronunciation Book could also have been an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) all along—a story being told in pieces through vague means. If you watch all the videos in order, a sort of story emerges painting Jackie as a financier accompanying the people in the jungle on a mission on the Fourth of July, where they sneak in to a dinner dressed as caterers and want to get a look at a prominent figure, maybe a president, in order to presumably assassinate him. Like the infamous LonelyGirl15 videos, which at first presented themselves for months as the innocent blog of a teenage girl before getting cryptic and then revealing itself to be a “show.” The person behind Pronunciation Book could have been biding his time for three years, building an audience, and waiting to gain curiosity, speculation, and press before revealing his ruse. And making tons of YouTube revenue in the process by duping everyone into watching closely.

    These are the least interesting answers /x/ has proposed. Pronunciation Book could also be a way for U.S. spies to communicate with each other. Or maybe the man behind it was being brainwashed by the government, and has just decided to rebel by covertly including decodable messages in his numbers videos. Maybe the channel is a way for the resistance to spread information. 

    Maybe the countdown is a warning—the lead up to a huge terrorist attack. For example, in the video for “72,” Pronunciation Book says: “You can see it in the markets. Everyone is ready for a storm. Something is going to happen in 72 days.” Does this mean the stock market? Will it crash? 

    If this just a prank, it’s a scary prank. And maybe that’s the whole point.

     

     

     

    So there it is. 4chan is working on it too, I have no idea what it might mean. But I know our forums is intelligent and can solve this! 

     

    The last video was day 62. We have 62 days to solve this, come on people! We got this!

  12. Meh, I get it's a bit greedy. But let's face it we don't know what they'll do with the money earned from the game itself, AND the funding is optional. I won't be donating, but I don't see any reason to whine and get all angry about something that's not mandatory.

     

    They aren't exactly game developers, and I don't really know how much a typical video game costs to make. 

     

    For all we know, all the money the game makes could go to a charity. 

     

    It's not optional, once again people get worked up over stuff for no reason.

  13. @@The Swedish Brony,

     

    "I managed to do a bit of reconnaissance before the meeting began. The camp is made of tents, and in the middle is a large transmutation circle where the unicorns magic is drained, and transferred.

     

    The ideal way would be to fly in, but with all the new ponies we have accrued it seems that won't work. Our last chance is to sneak in through the area they use as a graveyard for the unicorns who die during transmutation." 

     

    He shivered thinking about stepping over the bodies of deceased ponies, ironically he was sitting on a dead corpse not but fifteen minutes ago. Funny how things work.

     

    "Even so I can't guarantee we'll be safe. If we're spotted and alarms sound, things could get.... complicated."

     

    He tapped his metal arm to emphasize the possibility of a risky confrontation.

  14. Solar smiled. He knew that these extra ponies weren't spies now. Terracotta doesn't need five spies to gather information.  No, it must be the ring leader. The person pulling the strings of the revolution from behind the curtains.

     

    "Okay then, our plan stands. Invade the camp, rescue any unicorns healthy enough too stand on their own two legs. And steal any supplies you can grab. Once it's said and done, we torch the place. And destroy the evidence."

     

    This would be the first movement as the revolution, making their presence know and showing the Emperor what such a small force could do. IF they COULD do it, of course.

    Ohai.

     

    The site is a fun place, even if you're not a Brony. It must be cool to know someone as talented as Feld0.

     

    I am genuinely astounded someone so young, can accomplish feats such as organizing events, maintaining several different sites, AND have time to be Batman on the side. He really is an impressive gentleman.

  18. Maybe it's a school where, Middle and High are connected?? It's possible that they're in sixth, while the Mane six are Juniors.

     

    Also why do we assume the mane six are in their 20s?? It could be that ponies and humans just age differently. And in Equestria they're still in their mid-teens, but have already graduated. 

     

    The education in Equestria is rather questionable. They rely on magic for most of their problems. Even the most advanced piece of equipment featured in the show, the Super-Cider-Squeezy-6000, ran on Unicorn magic. So it's not unlikely they just have inferior education.

  19.  

     

    But what If Her parents actually are.....Flash Sentry and Twilight Sparkle!

     

    I stopped reading.

     

    The kid bares no resemblance, and I doubt Hasbro is going to be all, "LOOK AT THESE YOUNG KIDS. GUESS HOW THEY MADE THIS."

     

    No. Remember the oldest couple in the show is Mr. and Mrs. cake, and they only just had babies. Hasbro wouldn't portray a couple as young (not to mention a couple that's never going to happen) having a kid. They ARE in High School!
