    What happened to the dev contest?

    Blaming the community without knowing jack shit about anything. A typical Kuthara quality post.

    What happened to the dev contest?

    That does not make any sense, because that would mean that votes are meaningless because some board of directors just choses how it pleases anyways ...

    What happened to the dev contest?

    Well, I do blame it on them, that this piece of information right there is nowhere to be found on their forums or the static discord channels. It took a thread on the forums and several posts to get to this point. So ... thanks for letting us know ;)

    What happened to the dev contest?

    So this dev contest went into some "semi finals" with pretty much same games as before, just with MO removed. What gives?

    Unnecessary Stress Test Annoyance

    How so? To me your response shows you did not understand one word of what I have written. At the very, very least they could have let the client retry once the connection to the "login server" has been lost. This is a very trivial line of code. If we are here to play the lottery, let us do so...

    Unnecessary Stress Test Annoyance

    It's fine to use a quick&dirty login throttle instead of a proper queue that queues people until there is enough free capacity - but then you ought to show numbers like current/max Sever capacity and number of people currently waiting. That way we can make informed decisions if we want to spend...

    Taming quirks

    Wolves can not be tamed either. There is no "press [use key] to start". It's a very frustrating process to find out these things.

    Taming quirks

    Nodelines are still a big problem, even more so than in MO1.

    Taming quirks

    The reason why my post looks like it looks is I have been witnessing SV practices for about 10 years now. I am really impressed by the things they have done in that short amount of time in MO2. I was laughing at henriks announcement 3 years ago, yet here we are. I truly am astonished. BUT This...

    Young Razorbacks = Hot, Archery = Not?

    I doubt anyone ever won a fight vs a young razorback. They are probably the toughest mobs in the game right now (at least outside of haven). They seem to hit harder than elder razorbacks and teleport to you instantly. Bows wont fix that

    Taming quirks

    Some pets only show the "Press R to tame" thing for a very brief fraction of a second - Wisents, Wolves and Black Bears for example. Impossible to start taming on those. Apparently some animals have to be beaten into mercy mode in order to be tamed. If you hit your own pet, you go grey. This is...

    Razorbacks and wolves.

    I don't think they have stamina at all. It seems a rather simplistic script of seek&destroy. Although I notice some rudimentary beginnings of behavioral patterns with the wolfes. They disengage every once a while, but are quick to resume their rage.

    Razorbacks and wolves.

    It also means that you win the game as soon as you have tamed an unblockable animal. Looking forward to spam ppl to death by cheesy bot attacks. They did such a good job with bandits/guards - of course there is tweaking needed - but with animals they went right back to where they started. It...

    Razorbacks and wolves.

    Not only can you not outrun them, you can also not outride them on a Steppe full speed. PvE for animals seems like a placeholder.

    Monetization

    No need. I know that you're wrong. Also, those subtle changes of how that armour looks is part of the game too, and rightfully so. They specifically stated, that in order to reach full efficiency with a given weapon or piece of armor, you only need 70 skill points, anything above that will...

    Monetization

    Absolutely Not. What You See Is What You Get is a fundamental core principle of MO, as part of its goal to provide maximum immersion. A Sword made of a certain metal needs to look exactly like that so that anyone looking at it immediately recognizes it as such. Decisions might be based on what...

    Star Vault Could Learn a Lot From EVE Online

    Haven't there been soul stones or some such in Ultima Online where you could store some of your skills for later retrieval? Maybe something like that could work for MO2. Of course player crafted or enchanted or whathaveyou :)

    Domination/Pets and log out

    I fully expect mountable minotaurs. I want to be carried around in its cozy arms.
