I think everyone would like to see this happen.

I had no clue about this last point... So those of us who purchased prem for a new character will have the referral removed? Can't say I'm happy about that if that's the case.

Problem is they are getting a mass of negative reviews already, if they don't sort it out soon people won't even try the game. After 2 hours... to be greeted with "buy a premium account' is not really what you want to have happen. Sort it out fast guys.

"Welcome to Wurm, after a few hours you will be lost, confused, hungry, thirsty, probably half dead - and yet strangely you're not even connected!"

Alts should be banned seriously...

That's what she said.... Sorry it had to be said.

Looks like free to play might not be viable. HAHA FLUBB! how are you man... I used to sail by you every other day - years ago on Xan.

I was in then just as I seen everyone it dumped me... won't accept my connection now.

I get a crash this is at the end... ====== CLIENT CRASH ====== [14:05:47] Unexpected crash while playing [14:05:47] java.lang.NullPointerException [14:05:47] at class.r1JyCdrOhy.FZOk5L6Gfy(SourceFile:339) [14:05:47] at com.wurmonline.client.WurmClientBase.iHOS3zg1KL(SourceFile:216) [14:05:47] at com.wurmonline.client.WurmClientBase.iHOS3zg1KL(SourceFile:186) [14:05:47] at com.wurmonline.client.WurmClientBase.run(SourceFile:36282) [14:05:47] at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

I'm not saying that they should update WU with newer content, but... They should roadmap some QOL updates for WU. The fault in their thinking is this: those who try WU first may not bother with WO/Steam because they think it's all the same. IMO keeping WU at least looking good with the graphical updates will shed a better light on anything they want to do with WO/Steam. Development-wise I don't think it would take them much effort/time to push the graphical improvements over to WU - it's more of a business move they are making to strangle WU users to switch back.

Wouldn't it be better if Wurm for Steam was exclusive for the 'Steam' server/s? Tracking account ownership via Steam ID, would be a great way to stop people from selling accounts. How can you utilize steam ID if people are logging in from the standalone client?

To say something that in reality can't be locked, is lock-able (rowboat / open cart) yet on the other hand say that same thing is un-pickable... is somewhat nonsensical (illogical). My point was, something off deed and outside of a house (which have permissions) and is just locked, should be assumed part of the environment - essentially un-owned. How can we assume that a chest in the middle of nowhere has an active owner. PVP is a loose term, it's not against a player if that player is not playing anymore. It just hurts immersion to protect everything indefinitely. If the goal were to add some excitement to exploring the world, one would see the benefit in allowing for a limited scope wherein locks are utilized even in PVE. I rest my case.

In actuality, things are not working on PVE, making changes to increase interest and enjoyment. Disabling and making skills useless in PVE does not mean 'it's working' it's expressly not working at all. It's downright laughable to have stuff protected to the extent that it is... Boring to travel across a landscape where everything is locked by a player who decided to quit a year or more ago, can't do nothing with it but wait for it to decay. Sorry that's not increasing the FUN in the game. The first thing a new player thinks is... 'That's stupid' - and they are right. Anyhow I said my bit - let's see if anyone is listening.

Bugs can be corrected. Valuable things should be either on a deed or in a house, don't see the relevance here.

What bugs could there be with locking/picking, those seem to work on the PVP servers. In any case it would be a change worth doing regardless. We could simply say the same with any mechanic of the game, well there were issues with the crops/growing code so we can't ever make changes to that again? I say make the change and work out the problem in the code, don't take the headlights out of the car because the battery doesn't work... Change the battery.
