Title: Signs of Addiction
Post by: RearAdmiralZill on March 05, 2013, 03:50:08 pm
Hi my name is Zill, and I am addicted.

Goio has replaced about every other game right now. Also, I refresh my forum page way too much to see when the Burning Skies opens. RP is a dangerous thing.

Hi my name is Hamster, and I am an addict.

I tried playing another game once, I found it highly unsatisfying. I am dubious that there are other games out there right now. When I am not commanding an airship, I am thinking about commanding an airship, or talking about what I would do if I were commanding an airship.

I am Brick Hardcastle and I am an addict!

Yesterday I played GOI for most of the day. Afterwards I was walking around thinking about how I needed to switch to phoenix claw to make sharp turns.

Hello my name is JmoolZZ and I am an addict.

Got this game when it first came out, thought it was the coolest thing ever.  :) But then I got hooked on a couple other video games, and now I am back on here and ready for more. Addicted to this game now, and probably will be for a very loooong time.

I'm Plasma, and I think I'm an addict.

It started off small. I'd only play with my friends, and not really talk to the 'randos' on the interwebz.

Then I started being not terrible. Then I found the forums.
I think I've played more than I've worked this week. I've gone from a meager 60 hours, to 90 hours in the space of 5 days. Not even sure how that physically fits together.

And now that I've met so many cool folks, I don't think I'll be leaving anytime soon.

Hi I'm Gilder and I'm not an addict...I'M A SUPER ADDICT!!!

I drive my Subi and constantly think about putting a custom plate frame on the back that reads "I'd rather be Piloting" "Guns of Icarus Online"

Or have a custom bumper sticker which reads, my other airship is a Squid.

Wish I had a tar barrel option for tail gaters

I work on stories I someday hope to publish and during them Guns related fanfiction ideas dances in my head. Gilder tar barrels a wedding in it...du hu hu

I've successfully gotten at least 2 ships worth of guildies in my SWTOR guild to buy the game....am annoyed only 1 seems to be getting hooked by it.

Ideas of constructing a full scale replica of a Squid pass through my mind now and then.

Recommended Bioware add a ship to ship PVP battle similar to Guns for their Makeb Stormcarrier part. They didn't listen...

Find myself missing pilots and crew members I don't get to play against anymore. As if they were shot down in some far away battle and have gone missing...

Day dream of commanding an entire attack wing of Squids then descending upon helpless galleons to the cry of SHINRYAKU!!!!!!

Created iTunes playlists specifically for this game. Lot of songs from Sky Captain and Skies of Arcadia.

Was 2nd or 3rd to hit level 11 Pilot...was surprised by that one

Turned down 3 recruitment attempts and formed a clan with Brick. I haven't joined clans in any other game outside of guilds in MMOs. Not since UT99 days.

Go into spectator on matches and instead of watching the battle. Fly around looking for new routes or places I haven't had time to scout due to battles

Ummm...the list keeps going...

Hello everyone.
My name is Mattisamo, and I am an addict.
I play to much and don't look for jobs as I should.
When I don't play, I think about GoiO, and how to best help the interests of the Gentlemen.

That moment your computer/tv/ac/other stuff stops working so you hit it with a wrench...
That moment you whack your computer with a hammer in an attempt to speed it up...

My name is Zen, and I'm addicted to piloting airships.

I've been in multiple hit and run accidents since I started using...I pick up random strangers and force them to work for me and my ship. I've been recently flying different types of ships... Squids, Galleons, even Pyramidions.

I think my addiction is hurting people... Like those people I fly into.

I've tried quitting... But I find myself gunning and engineering instead... These are horrible addictions.... I need help

I am HamsterIV and I am addicted to the pyramidion trifecta. Last night I took over a ship of AI and forced them to trifecta by pressing F2. Their aim was horrible and I verbally chastised them for not bringing heavy clip. I didn't care nobody was repairing the hull I just wanted to hear the Dakka Dakka Dakka. Some times I bring three Gatling guns just to hear the sound of all of them shooting at once. One day I will bring 4, one day I will introduce the quadfecta into the meta. Fear me! Pity me!

Manta ray: Possible quinfecta.

But guys, last night I dreamed in Guns...
It was terrible, nobody would listen to my commands, and every gun was turned into the ship.
I'm having GoI nightmares...

Sounds like how things usually are when you pilot.

I'm having withdrawals. I've been wandering around Europe imagining what guns I'd mount on the various Castles, Cathedrals, and artwork I see. Hotel WiFi sucks.

Europe? Come to Finland! :D
And I think most of the castles would be equipped with Mercuries, Echidnas and gatlings.

Today, I was grocery shopping, and I thought to myself: God, why does the ice cream have to spawn on the other side of the map?

I... I think I may be addicted too...
