Im doing a number of reworkings now that 1.1 is in with all the new trees and new fence types. I started working on the roadways in and around my deed to liven them up a bit and get away from the drab same ole same ole. So im looking for pics from others that may have been working on landscaping roadways either on deed or off deed to get some inspiration and some ideas. These first two are the same roadway just looking north and south. I used some 30 and 40QL copper lamps to light it at night which gives it a nice creepy kind of glow. I have used Walnut trees to line the high iron on either side as once they hit old or better all the limbs will be higher than the high iron which will keep it from feeling crowded like olives or oaks would have.I also spaced the walnuts every other tile with gravel pavers as seperators. It gives quite an open feel without a tunnell effect. A lot of the trees are not yet at mature stage and once most or all hit Old..the effect should be quite interesting. Looking South and Loooking North This next one is a much more elaborate one im doing. The above pics I tried to stay simple but on this one I wanted to do an Imperial Roadway and its still very much under construction as I wait on enough sprouts to finish the road borders and get the time to finish out all the pillars. Its completely lined with chestnuts, horse statues, fountains, and pillars with brass lamp lighting..allthough I may change it to bronze lamps..not certain yet. I have tried to keep everything spaced a bit so it doesnt get too overwhelming but itll be easier to tell once all the chesnuts are at mature and I have all the lavendar hedges in. Looking west If you have any roadways your working on using the 1.1 items post them up:) I have a lot of roadway to work on so hopefully I can get some inspiration from what everyone elese may be working on.

still a work in progress for our ranch, i will update the pic with a better one once finished. But afterall, the road is done, and that's the more important. (diagonal paving / marble slabs / curbs / stone fence / high irons gate will be used on that project) PS. And i really like your last picture... might steal you some idea as well

The Pristine server went offline. It seems the operating system has frozen and we can not shut down the virtual machine it's running on. This means we have to restart the physical machine which will affect a few other virtual machines: Delieverance, Celebration and Release. These will now be taken down with ten minutes notice. When the game servers are down we will restart the hardware and get the servers back up. Sorry for the hassle!

When I used to roam more it was extremely rare to actually have an enemy in visual range, and that was often with a much larger player base too. The only times I'd find someone was seeing them in local, and then sweeping the area/listening carefully and using pendulums. I think removing local would probably reduce the chances of random pvp. Besides that, a lot of people probably wouldn't leave their deeds as often either, as they could have an entire enemy kingdom waiting outside and they wouldn't know about it... -1 to removing local. Also I like watching death tabs every now and again, it's a nice way of keeping track of the battles you're in too. So -1 to that too.

Latelly I was playing a bit with deed planeer, and realized the current limit in house size is really small. I know that such limit in part is to avoid the making of overaized unbasheable enclosures on freedom, so I come with this draft suggestion. From 1 to 99 carpentry, keep the limit and requeriments as is, but wen a player reaches more than 99 skill in carpentry, a new structure unlocks lets name it Big House. To plan a Big House, you need obiously more than 99 carpentry, and Big Houses can only exist on deeds, other than that, there is no limit on the plant size (the limit on vertical size remains as same as normal houses). The Big House writ is like a normal writ, but is tied to deed, so if deed disband, the house puff, if deed is resized down and one or more house tiles fall off deed, the house puff too, if deed is resized up and you have more than 99 carp you can expand the house, etc. I will love to see this idea devated and expanded, and even burned to ashes with good arguments if is not needed/liked.

funny that i am still living in a 2 story 2x3

Why dont you and Arrowhun make a game?

When you've seen your 15th 'You play too much wurm when...' thread. You still read it anyway to see what new ideas people will come up with (and frankly amazed no one has just complained that the OP should have used the forum search function, though to be fair the last one of these was a while ago). You still laugh at them, even the ones you've seen many times before. You contribute anyway, cringing while you do so, wracking your mind trying to come up with an original one. aaaand the original one: the servers crash and you genuinely have absolutely no idea what to do with your evening, other than refreshing the forum home page waiting for the servers to show anything other than 0/0, or log in to IRC and await the shout "I'm in!".

lets be serious, if after a fail you where able to try again in a reasonable time lapse, like 12 or 24 hours, the secret will be more justified, rigth now, i prefer to cheat and not to risk a 24 days period just to risk failing again.

Seeing how Hell Hounds are very crispy critters, and can be a royal pain to kill, it would be nice if they dropped coal like lava spiders do.

Thx to Nosefire, we have an element in JKL that isnt fully fleshed out game mechanic wise. And it shows. I have a fix, and the more feedback the better. How i understand it, is when a pirate starts killing ppl, he is kos for 30 minutes and losses reputation. Once his reputation gets to -100 the guards can attack, and once -200 he converts to HOTS. The Problem lies in how reputation is gained. You see a pirate will go between -100/-199 and then wait at his deed. Everyone gets 1 lvl of reputation AUTOMATICALLY per hour. So he waits around and once he has enough buffer, he goes pvping again. This is broken. Name all the things in Wurm that are done automatically, there isnt many. What i recommend is some sort of ACTIVE way to gain reputation. And ELIMINATE the passive rep gain. Maybe a priest has to right click the pirate and do some ~washing of sins~ spell over and over and over again. And like wurm fashion, have it be a pain in the pass. Or have the pirate buy reputation tags that are sold at vendors. And these tags are found in pve drops. Something. Active. Thank you o/

removing the local list shouldn't be an issue if the game were more immersive in this area. If a player is stalking an enemy there is nothing in game to give them away unless as mentioned they are in your line of sight. I'd like it where the game gives out clues, perhaps odd sounds or small messages, "you hear the sharp crack of a twig breaking." Just to make it more interesting, these could occasionally be done by natural animals and quite often by the unnatural ones.

Seriously, Surprised we don't even have this when I was thinking about it, I should be able to KOS Certain creatures or aggros. Even by breaking it down by catergory - Valeri Creatures - Humanoids - Non-Humanoids Or just by being able to add exceptions Rats,Trolls or etc

I would at least like to trial having no local list and see how it goes. I'm sure others are curious as well.

we can already build pretty massive things

Emoo should submit that picture to the dev team. MR should be able to ride gorillas.

Let's expand on this idea. I want to just skip the SB concept and just be able to pay for skill points straight from the shop. Why bother with even grinding right?

No because then you could stop someone from lockpicking your door by standing behind it and lockpicking it yourself. Then just cancel before the timer ends. Besides that it's a bad idea anyway. -1

So I graduated BA (hons) Politics with International Relations from the University of York

you wait for a tool tip to pop up when hovering your mouse over other people screenshots (even my own), or watching a video and you try to look around

Rosedragon cried disbelieve as she found her favourite pet champion brown bear lay lifeless on the ground. She prayed to Fo and tried every spells she knows to bring back the critter, yet all the spells that promised to bring life to flourish.. are failing.. fizzled.. just not working. In her desperation, a female voice whispers to her, 'I can help. I can bring it back to life... come to me dear...' Rosedragon saw a vision of a pillar of dark spirals, strike to the sky. She knows where it is and she knows that the black pillar located on what they call an evil land, and she doesn't hesitate when she carry the dead bear to her boat and sail out from the safety of freedom isles. Thus Rosedragon arrived on the island of Chaos and touched the bone altar. Libila whisper to her of power to bind soul back to body... a spell powerful enough to bring back her beloved pet. She took a vow, binding her own soul to the dark goddess and thus Libila kept her promise and revive the champion brown bear. For the new witch will ride into battle with this bear, as part of her force of vengeance. So, at last.. the drawing is finished. It is the exaggerated depiction of my main character that I have been thinking to make after I convert her from priest of Fo to priest of Libila and the idea screams to be drawn after I killed most of my champion animals on my deed in Independence. Trying to depict her as a kind of battle-mage, and at the beginning I gave her my fav weapon: medium maul but decided to change it after I'm unable to make the maul looks dreadful. Total time used seems to say nine hours from the video I recorded but it feels longer as I have to do this upon several days. Thanks to mamadarkness, cerberus, blob, don, villagemates @commorragh, and some people from HOTS-GL and Independence kchat for the feedbacks.

Nice logic, lets just remove rare rolls so people can't have supremes. Oh yeah and glimmer so that not only a few people can have them. Oh yeah! Screw grinding just give everyone 99.99 in all skills and let it be a free for all! *Inserts sarcasm*

as well as the slate ones - i'm just waiting for someone insane enough to pave a whole road with slate slabs.

So, Elevation?

-1 inb4 1% chance to pick locks and would takes months to pick a lock

+1 No more tall stone wall links on my castle wall would be nice.

I agree with this. Set death tabs to pop every 24 hours at a designated time, from the day before. As it stands now, as soon as you get someone in local, both sides know it happened. If the group that is running around looking for kills can't get one in about 30 seconds, they have to run back to a safe place because they know that they'll have an entire alliance chasing them. Make the game more sound dependent. Have horses running through grass be a noticeable sound against background noise, distinct from other sounds. It would be easy to do if you get sounds of hooves hitting dirt instead of the generic "creature pushing away grass" sound. I think it would be very fun to at least try.

I have lock picking well into the double digits and I don't even like Marcus, but thankyou for showing your ignorance.

Uh... what? How is any of that (even though it's wrong) relevant? Why would you assume only BL has high lp skill? I disagree with the suggestion, but posts like that just makes your point look worse

the only worry i would ave is game mechanic wise....what happens then if someone is inside his room AFTER his renting time ran out?XD

Nerf or Nothing

I imagined two robbers trying to break into someone's home when I read that

1) A)No B)Yes - You go through an Epic Portal, which simply creates a copy of your toon on Epic, with no stats and nothing in the inventory. Go back through the portal to get home. 2) When buying premium I believe you must enter a specific account name, so based on that it will only premium that toon. You must repeat the process to make the other premium. 3) Excuse me but hell yes. The biggest, is that your skills will be able to travel above level 20. This will enable you to create better quality items and gear, which in turn creates shorter timers for everything you do. You can become better at fighting, so you won't die as much. The possibilities are endless. Trust me it is very much worth it.

It's "up" but totally locked up at the moment. It's been that way since right after the restart. They know about it. On the plus side, we appear to have gotten sleep bonus.

Eat the chickens... problem solved!

oh god not the "soonTM". here too

ill help you move on from the game eyesgood ill be over in a day or two.

Well, Rolf has bills to pay too, its his game he can price it however he wants.. We'll just have to deal with it. Like, complaining that Wurm is getting more expensive because Rolf is hiring and improving the game..... He gives us a gift with the one hour sleep bonus, I don't expect anything more.

Ran past this place a few times surely a good spot

+1 very much, hell horses!

Here's an oldie.

now you have to do it ingame so you have to ask that person and if that person is not your friend but some random guy he may not do that eve online system is automaticly as person buys premium you automaticly get bonus

hi there! im across the lake from you at the moment. (lakeside lair deed on map) i'll be glad to see more people moving in, we need more nice locals it's a really nice spot. quiet, nice views, good people, etc.

When you take off your pants to run faster.

You dream about Wurm.

At low skill and using a low QL shield, it can be quite rare that you successfully block. Because of this, I advise using a pretty high QL shield (at least 50QL would be my advise) and initially practice against a weaker creature like a cow, bull, or young horse. As your skill raises, you'll notice that the block rate will go up to where a low QL shield still blocks depending on what you fight against. I would also advise using defensive fighting as well as either using no weapon at all or a very weak weapon. that way you don't accidentally or swiftly kill the creature you're fighting. I hope this helps.

[21:56:51]<Wossoo>Wurm should have my face instead of Sol's image for apocalypse Challenge accepted.

MrB isn't formally still part of the team, but he came back informally for fun yesterday. :3

I agree with both the OP and with Protunia. There needs to be a mechanic to allow lowering of rock underwater (outside of some ridiculous wand that was given out years ago), but dredging shouldn't be that mechanic. Something as simple as a large metal rod that we can use to break up underwater rock would be sufficient.
