Thread: Friday with Means - July 9th, 2010 - Summertime fun

    building ... for all farming efforts made (3 buildings planted in our alliance O_o) + this petitionning needed (so, 3 times for us), we're a lot to hope a worthy buff will stack up to the city within that addition.
    also i guess we must wait the patch to petition ...

    out of that, those heads looks okay BUT way too american !

    xD

    It good to finally receive some head from Means, again. I look forward to applying to beta test the engine (if there even is an application).

    On the chat system fix: Please do not remove any of the fuctionality! AO has _the_ best chat I've seen in any game.

    Thanks for the update though. Today's good news almost makes last week's lost FWM insignificant.

    You can petition now. The GM will verify that you have a building, will ask you to destroy it and then will spawn a new building in your inventory. The GM will also ask you to wait for the update before planting it.

    Yup. Just had this done myself by the local friendly GM. Even if he did appear a bit stoned and spawned a cracked nano crystal (essense of might) on the first attempt, instead of the building

    I got it though, so thanks for speedy expedition.

    so, see you in... next year maybe?

    I am glad I am frozed.

    I find myself more interested in upcoming games then AO - since building whole NEW game, with engine, desing takes less time then transfer it for new engine (w/o desinging new content, items, mechanics ect...)
    I like PvP

    As far as I know it was the first, could be wrong but I can't remember you ever missing one before. When you first started these and said you'd do them every week I fully expected you to run out of things to say before long and miss a week here or there regularly. You or at least the team haven't and that's pretty darn good.

    Although one looks like it's hanging from two blue strings which is a bit odd.

At the very least don't do the it's one thing now and will be something else later thing. I don't know about anyone else but not being able to place it properly (no idea where the door would face) when it's a different building now caused WAY more drama for me than I wanted to deal with.

    When is the NT discussion?

    :shrug: I wouldn't worry in this particular case. I am sure FC would still reimburse you if you got scammed this way. At least when it comes to this specific item.

    Anyways, dont mistake trust for lack of intelligence.

    Why is the coder doing work on the old engine? Did you back off from the idea (mentioned a few months ago) of a single, new client and decide to go forward with both old and new clients? Or will we see some stop-gap performance improvements in the old engine before the new one arrives?

    Only 8... that is pretty fast i need to update my hardware before otherwise i can´t use the cool dx11 effects, oh wait it will be only dx9 hm ok...

    It is kinda sad that they progress so slow on the new engine, it is in work for 3 years now, with closed beta in a few months, let´s be realistic, the engine won´t come up before 10th birthday, this could be a nice present, but in 4 years other companys create 4 complete games, well none of them are as cool as ao but 4 years just for an engine transfer seems to be too long, i know i know you have limited resources, but sooner or later the question has to show up if an updated engine was a good plan with such limited resources.

    Not that i don´t think a new engine would have been needed, it is about time that ao gets the update, but with this long working time you are disappointing more people than you actually are able to satisfy, at least the result have to look great otherwise this won´t take a good ending i think.
