    Concerning this, and some "flurry" creatures...

    Can we have "new" leet pets and new heads as avatars? I want zombieleet as my avatar so much, it's just perfect one and I might start necroing too with it ;D

    Please Means, what about the problem with chat where you can no longer use the arrow keys to turn or stop while the chat window is selected? That's really a HUGE input change for a lot of us, and seriously limits the experience of the game.

    Pretty sure he addressed this in his post...

    Edit: Yep he did...

    lol, read it twice and still didn't see it!

    hui shade docs! Exciting!

    I haven't seen mention to some bugs or questions..

    - Is it intended that while non-upgraded ofab is YesDrop you still cannot access other professions shops? I haven't seen any official answer on that

    - The mouse starts to become laggy and starts to skip when you move it near the edges of the screen in windowed mode for some people.

    - Another keyboard control problem is in scenarios where you excessively use ctrl+tab like in BS you can no longer move or use hotbar actions while the ctrl key is being held. You used to be able to do so before. You can work around by adding ctrl+movement keys to the binding but would be nice if those were pre-set already and you don't have to set it on every character. workaround link

    - There is a lacking keybinding which used to be on Shift+Q. It "changed" your target if you already were attacking something. It still functions but is not showing up in the binding list. Reassigning attack to another button keeps the shift+Q functionality but if you assign shift+Q to another actions the change target action is lost for good. Any plans to add that to the possible binding list?

    There is official answer somewhere (dunno where, maybe in one of the treads in18.4. section). Kintaii (I believe it was him) stated shops will stay prof locked.

    [Kintaii]: Dude, I *am* weird
    [Kintaii]: I came to accept this many years ago and am much happier for it. XD
    [Kintaii]: Besides - I work on *AO*. That right there is proof of my oddness.

    From the patch notes ...

    # Basic OFAB Armor is no longer no-drop - Improved/Penultimate OFAB is still no-drop. Vendors are still only accessible by profession.

    Are token packs still yesdrop?

Another ironic thing is that the downfall happened due to pvm conflict.

    But the sky *is* falling.

    You've excluded a lot of customers from running AO with Awesomium (browser) because they don't use Windows, and I think one of the last things you can afford is losing even more players.

    I have to agree, the sky is falling. If i cant run AO because of the new browser, i will have to be forced to quit the game...

    Hm. Seeing a lot of people mentioning "Stop killing your game by not letting Linux in" (I am exaggerating for comedic effect, but it is what it 'sounds' like sometimes). Do these people forget that Linux has never been officially supported, and that it only worked because it happened to?

    Are they really in such a majority that barring out linux die hards will kill AO?

    I don't think they are. I'm sorry it doesn't work for you, and it does upset me, as I was considering putting linux back on my laptop, but I don't expect perfect gaming from Linux, and thus I'm not upset when it doesn't work.

    How are you guys gonna call the document for doctors?

    As in:

    "Doc doc"
    "Who's there"
    "a Doc"
    "no kidding"

  17. #57
    Surely a "what's up doc?" would be most appropriate?

  18. #58
    YES FINALY THE MP DOCUMENTS!!!!


    oh sorry... my bad...

    So we can buy Ofab with real money but not trade it with our alts.... Why? To force people to trade credits? What's the value in that?
    ---

    And Mean's post with his "don't worry, this stuff is really expensive," doesn't really speak to the concerns that they are selling power now. It's just a brush off laced with a childish, sycophant-troll-stoking chicken little insult.

    Sure, I'm laying it on thick, but all discussions of whether the items in the shop are appropriate has been blatantly avoided. The silence is deafening.

    They've done a lot of good with this game over the past year but some of us feel this item shop is just bad news. And the lack of community engagement about it is disappointing.

    Why bother? It's pretty obvious by now that FC won't listen anyway. The only way they're gonna change this is if they loose more money off people quitting than they gain by selling items...
