Must hear a lot of those round your neck of the woods


Crickets here, crackheads and murderers where you are. I'll take here. And Amanda: I've run groups on Skype for haven for like 5 years now and never had any of the problems you mentioned..... Arguably one of the most successful groups in Haven, Ainran use it to great effect.

It's a bit off topic, but I'm very sad about your sig linking a dead video now. I was looking forward to goat yellin'.


loftar put in some ridiculous 256x32 image size restriction so I can't update the link and keep the huge annoying image :(

No, I wouldn't be tacking on smileys if I were bitter; the forums have always been like this, and in fact I quite enjoy it. It's just a fact of life that I have come to accept due to Haven being intrinsically fairly controversial in various ways, and I'm also very well aware that the discontent will always be more vocal. I just wouldn't be looking for any state of Utopia to descend upon Haven.

This point will never exist. :)

So sorry if all those cries in the forum makes you feel bitter, I played w6 and 7 and enjoyed every minutes of it, why do you think we are here, thats not because we dont know every other games.
H&H was OK, H&H2 will be OK after a bit of tuning, its just the first state of H&H2 that will perhaps be a little rough.

Morpheus: I imagine that right now, you're feeling a bit like Alice. Hmm? Tumbling down the rabbit hole?
Neo: You could say that.
Morpheus: I see it in your eyes. You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he is expecting to wake up. Ironically, that's not far from the truth. Do you believe in fate, Neo?
Neo: No.

I'd be more worried about these things than about bandwidth or technical issues, indeed.

Being able to mute people locally is sufficient.

This - besides a restricted frequency band - no need for lower than 200Hz and higher than 4k ... and a filter for constant tones like sinewaves

Will there be shooting through walls at launch? it's tiring watching for snipers when you are farming, or being forced to go indoors when idle/tabbing
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy
