Game Development: World 16.2

[pagsiu]

Make sure you spawn the statues (treaty, rubberband and so on) this time.

Single spawn continent

[*] PvP

• Removed the rule, active in World 16.1, by which it was possible for a character to pass through gates while in combat if not having bought the "Rage" skill. It is, in 16.2, quite simply, not possible to pass through gates while in combat.
• It is no longer possible to enter locked houses while in combat.
• Entering a house/pocket world will no longer initiate the timed dropping of combat relations with people outside of the house/pocket world. Combat relations are maintained over world boundries as per normal, provided you remain close enough to maintain them. Note that animals will still drop combat relations as per usual.
• Reduced the cost of "Rage" from 50k LP to 10k. Suggested here

lol
skip world

I like how after reading month of hermits cry, Jorb decided to dab on them. Imho he went too far, but it is what it is.

Jorb and Loftar, I hope you will play W16.2 to experience these changes, REALLY

This is the biggest thing really, you can tell when they're actually playing and feeling the game and making changes based on that vs. just plucking stuff from the ether / player suggestions

Wowie, Jorb and Loftar never experienced pvp and decided to make it so pvp is even more obnoxious!
Im so glad i didn't waste money on a subscribtion this time!

As a mostly PvE player I don't even mind the Rage and combat changes.

The no cost TW is a bit too much though but I'll give the world a go just to see what its like.

Since day one, this game has always been about permadeath, open PvP, and full loot. I really don't get all the whining from people trying to change it.

Like I said, there are tons of games out there that fit your taste. Bye bye!!

• Hunger is reduced once weekly, on Fridays, 19:00 UTC.
• The amount reduced is now, additionally, determined as a function of your distance to the highest character attribute server lead. Your reduction is highest on a new character, and lowest on the server lead.
• All hunger reductions, including those from Questing and Salt, are affected by the distance-to-server lead modifier.

Care to explain more how this works? Is "highest character attribute server lead" the character with the single attribute the highest? So likely someone's miner with 10k stats will be the leader and everyone will get reductions based on how close their highest stat is to 10k?

Or is it the character with the highest sum of all their attributes and your reduction is based on how close the sum of your attributes are to theirs? In which case you get punished when you accidentally get a stat you don't care about since it'll decrease the amount of hunger reduction you get.
