Game Development: Every Little... + Development Thoughts

[kyoshox]

hmm idk whats wrong with glutteny but it seems to be fine on the leveling up side. but what i found that food is lacking is actual healing effects. when ur at 50+ humors the healining scale is low and super low when ur in the 200s which lead u in eating the same amount over time which is kinda lame.

also bears roar isnt effected on black bile but more of a % so if ur at 400 black bile and got a fear debuff at 50% ur going to die in 2 mins bc the drain isnt effected by the amount of black bile but at a % rate which is super broken and needs to be fix tired of wasting food on bear fear and still die after killing the bear with 90% hp but getting KOed by fear debuff

another one of ur problems is content its been over 2 years and u guys shown mounts and brooms and other monsters but they have yet to make it into the game.

u guys are focused on small issues which is kind of waste of dev time.

the purity change was in the right direction humors shouldnt be e z to get pass 100 and there should be a cap of 500 of each humors and a distory cap at 100 humors so even tho ur at 200 humor ur still doing the same damage at 100 but ur have 100 extra humor before the damage starts to drop thus making damage balance at a point and not making people do over 100 damage per hit with full snake skull gear but capping it at around 50

there shouldnt be a wipe ever but adding a new server would be nice or a character transfer which will only allow u to carry over a24 slot area and all purity items are at 0% so its wise to only bring clothing and other useful stuff like silver

also towns should have stalls that u could build which ur town people could use to sell and trade also any houses on the town claim will now have a claim purchase building for townies which will be like a claim stone but give them the house as his personal spot in the town and the money will go into the town bell

Nice bug fix on the send home. Micro updates with bug fixes are nice.

I'm glad to hear about the changing of gluttony. I've never liked the spamming of a few choice foods either, but with the way the system is now, many foods are just not very useful. Mostly you're stuck either eating high purity farmed foods (what's left of them), or high tier foods and hoping you get lucky, or foods that offer mainly one humor like the cabbage cakes always giving BB. I've never even Made a froghetti or a three virginians and that's a shame.

I wouldn't even mind a wipe if it means significant improvements in the mechanics. And maybe some fixes to the map generation?

The only hope that you'd fix soon a problem with a splash damage from a weaker walls

There isn't any! Why does this rumor stick around? I've destroyed many split rail fences near stone and plank and see no splash to them. Same for destroying stone near plank.

They show nothing but negativity towards Salem and are a bad first impression to new players. Moderators who are politically motivated and show bias such as these 3 should also not be in any position of power.

That is all.

lol, then there would be no moderators left.

ok people you can come out of your basements the world is not ENDING!!!

hope that the updates are not that far away and fix things rather than make them worse to keep the existing players interested in the game.

glad to know you guys are not giving up on the game

alt abusing has now been TERMINATED!!!!people you can no longer block with alts

Please tell us as soon as possible if there is going to be a wipe, so that those of us who will no longer continue with Salem get fair warning. I can see myself coming back to Salem and Seatribe games in the future even if there is a wipe, but give us a month or two warning for any map or total wipes. If you surprise us with a wipe I will be greatly disappointed and avoid Seatribe games in general.

In HnH they expect a wipe for the next world, it's been part of the game forever and they know it's coming. In Salem, you and everybody else involved in the game have stated repeatedly that there will be no wipes so we are not expecting a wipe. In fact I'd say that the hardcore players left have continued playing Salem simply because we thought that there would be no wipe. You do not need a map wipe or a total wipe, selected wipes of broken gluttony mechanics could do the trick (hummus, seeds, worms, bins, character stat lowering). As for map wipes, maybe if you left the characters and the map in place but rebuilt the map as it was in pristine mode. I could live with that. I do not want to remap the world for myself.

I will do everything possible to help the game grow. All of us still playing need to do the same. I'll continue to post positive reviews on game sites, I'll tell friends, I'll help and be kind to every noob that starts playing, I'll keep playing.... as long as you keep this world you've created going. Please consider renaming the game "Haven and Hearth: A New World" or something like that and move systems from HnH over to Salem (Salem was a horrible name from the beginning). You need those 1500 Hearthlings over here, make Salem more like HnH, but 3-D and continuous, not reborn every 3 years. I can imagine 10,000 players on the game if that happens.

Like I promised and I hope everybody else will do also, I will be buying a mystery box for this update and every update from now on. I'd also suggest a donate button somewhere that goes directly to you guys and not through the Paradox Cash store. Put it here on the forums somewhere.

Thanks for sticking with it.
