Just wondering what the Dev Team is up to.

Post by boreial »

Like the title says, just wondering what our illustrious Dev's have cooking for the next fantastic update to this long lived and hopefully much longer lived game.

Moving your posts to the proper subforum.

In all seriousness: We haven't discussed the next move yet. Some more work on quests is certainly a thing.

Looking forward to the quest update, and of course whatever else the team decides. So many improvements over the years. Thanks for all you have accomplished and for the continued work. And also, thanks for the answer as well.

Just wondering when the next wipe will be?
will it come with the new combat system?
or with Object-controlled objects patch?

Quest update was good update. At least it didn't cause backlash when compared to some other updates. This is mostly due the fact that the update didn't force you to change your existing playstyle and/or routines but gave you new options to develop your character or simply spend time in-game. I think only real issue that people had with the update was the fact that it broke custom clients until they we're patched.

Gilding system: People initially we're angry but once they got past the initial "unknown is bad" phase and (at least in my case) that now you can make cheap stat-boosting linen pants and don't have to rely on nettle clothes for survival gain, people accepted it.

Changes to charter stones at the start of w9, lots of changes at the start of w8 most notably the payments model caused big uproar and may have scared away players who haven't found out that the payment model is, if not perfected, at least vastly improved.

Curio revamp: player base reacted to it so negatively that devs actually reverted it.

Actually I think a lot of players liked this change but due to a few glaring issues with it and for some other unknown reason(s) they reverted it

The curio revamp had some good ideas but it was implemented poorly. I remember at the time I had access to Glimmermoss node that being 40-10-10 or the like was turned into de facto q10 node because that 40 aspect only reduced glimmermoss's already low mental weight and didn't increase lp/h in any way.
