Thing is now though, characters will be MUCH MORE valuable, unless you have already made 20+ alt chars, and got the ball rolling on gaining them passive prof points, so when needed you can log into them with millions of prof points, and smash out levels fast. Or is there a hidden cap of points u can save?

I'm hoping there is a cap :p

the cap is what you started at I think, if we are talking about the same thing..

205k?

277k for me

I'm personally a little sad to see Darwoth go. Whether you want admit it or not he added something to the game.

Seems as though hardcore players will now have very little advantage over the casual, however, working in a group is that much more important now, and will give huge advantages if indivudal players in a group specialize on specific roles, over a single hermit, which i asume this patch intended this.

I couldn't agree with you more. We won't see anyone get anywhere near 500 for awhile. It's going to be much more important to have 10 100 stat guys than it is 3 500 stat guys and it's going to be much, much harder to get there.



As the giant salty Darwoth tears that smelled like 'Chik fil a' and 'Waffle House' slowly ran down the crumbling hill and into the rivers of the pioneers, noobs, merchants and mappers the people celebrated. It feels like a giant pus filled boil has been lanced. No longer would we have to listen to his racist rants or his personal assurances to his 'Id' on a daily basis. As the people of Providence danced and all the new players wondered why, all I could think of is "I win".

He never led a successful village, he never killed the pirates, he never killed me or for that matter destroyed a single stick fence of mine, he never won Jamestown, he never did much of anything in this game but almost kill the Candy Queen, kill a couple of Candy Kids, some Russians and blow a ton of bombast on Jamestown. Most importantly he never had a friend on Salem, ever. Maybe now the noobs will realize how much the 'Titans' of the game are really just mostly hot air and spangle.

Yeah, I agree with you. What else is there to say?

Is this true? Ztyx and Darwoth agreeing on something?

Can I have your stuff so I can accelerate the great purge?

[RuneNL]

this is the question i asked myself when i saw the patch notes from a pair of developers that have no concept of good game design. population could barely break 250 on launch day, in a month and a half it will be half that right back to where it was before. as such for reasons i have elaborated on already in other threads i am done, for real this time.

no need to tell me, i will not let the door hit me in the ass on the way out. good day and happy trails.

Rage rage QQ, I doubt your leaving. Always the biggest mouth about quitters and noobs lacking drive... I bet your just buying yourself time pretending your gone .

[Darwoth]

no, i am done. game is simply trash now.

aside from the ridiculous "inspiration" fiasco which has gotten most of the attention everything else about the patch is equally horrible.

the pvp changes have completely destroyed the balance of the game to cater to zergs of unskilled retards. can not raid more than 5 targets in 2 weeks, instead of needing to build hundreds of braziers there is no need to build more than a handful since 1 does max damage now, forcing you to be unable to switch homesteads for weeks (though easily gotten around). all of these changes with pvp were designed to make it so that it is easy to zerg down small groups with a large enough collection of mouthbreathing *****, all three servers ended up being dominated by small groups of aggressive pks, all of the developers zergy friends from haven got destroyed in embarassing fashion and quit so now this is what we have. a socialism influenced piece of **** that does its best to halt the advance of the achievers and force all playstyles into groupthink *****, this is how every single game i have ever played made by euro developers eventually ends up.

the gluttony changes are just laughable beyond description, it already took months to build a few hundred stat character under the old system, under this system it would take far longer if it is even possible at all (can only ever eat an inventory of food every 4 or 5 hours or so, this works out to 3 - 4 stat points at lower stats, 1 at higher stats)

again, this new system is made to make people stay at newb levels for as long as possible so that people chase the carrot for longer. it is like the trick in all of those **** games where they ad "new content" by ninja patching it so you run half as fast in order to not discover their entire half assedly created world before your free month expires.

the "new map generation" is what i expected, nothing actually ***** useful or interesting like caves, new terraforming options, water building etc, instead the main difference is sometimes rivers connect to lakes now instead of stopping 20 feet in front of them, whats worse is that all of the biomes are now smaller than they were before and randomly ***** everywhere like a quilt wearing someones lunch, which means you get to go mindlessly drag your ass around the world even more to do your already annoying foraging.

basically the entire game was gutted to make it so everything takes ten fold longer to do (in terms of TIME not effort, which is even worse) and that the 40 iq morons that were to ***** incompetent/stupid to build more than one brazier or level more than 2 or 3 fields after 6 months now do not need to while at the same time handing over yet MORE advantage to zergs of *****. because you know EVERYTHING in game was not already 10 fold easier in a group than without.

game is easy to play now of course, log on for a few hours every couple of days. trouble is i am not finding any good reason TO log on after this patch. i do not want to play a piece of trash like eve, which is what the game is now. just like haven.

you retards can sit around talking **** all you like, means less than nothing after i dominated all of you solo for the last 2 years. and under the insanely overpowered defense mechanics of the old world to boot.
