Game Development: World 16.2

[Audiosmurf]

Not sure if I'll like how this fast travel plays out.

16.1 Felt like you were going for something to stop a global hegemony of players by being able to be anywhere and everywhere and encourage regional powers instead. I liked that direction.

I also agree with this. The continued march towards full removal of any regionality sucks.

The PVP changes are positively braindead and I can't believe you are still being manipulated by the same few idiotic voices after so many years.

I can absolutely gaurantee that if you play this world for long enough to get agrod by a boreworm in a mine that you will change the agro/gate mechanics back to how they were in 16.1 immediately. You are only pandering to a tiny part of the game with this change and negatively effecting many other facets of it in the process.

Make it so that initial placement of a pclaim requires respecting a gracious exclusion zone around every pclaim?

Once the "normal activation timer runs out" it can be expanded with current tules?

That makes griefing with them even worse tho

Travel weariness is turned off entirely in 16.2.

Thingwall knowledge is shared with party members. You may, thus, travel to neighboring Thingwalls if someone in your party knows them, even if you do not.

Translation: every autistic ganker able to run exploration bots will be able to fast travel to anywhere in the world in seconds while all hermits suffer the consequences.


I'd love to be a fly on the wall for the tonedeaf conversation that lead to this decision.

They seriously seriously need to scrap the claim thing before bringing the world up or it's going to be a fucking disaster I'm warning you

Does hunger reduction work the same as normal just with an ADDITIONAL weekly reduction? Is it based on the highest stat of the highest player? Or is it comparing each individual stat with the worlds highest?

Or does hunger just not decay at all until the weekly reduction. Its not clear.
