    This is Keenan. Keenan doesn't understand this is a joke. Keenan likes the idea. Keenan implements it for next patch. Don't be Keenan.

    As was posted earlier today on discord... Keenan — Today at 9:18 AM I don't want to step on Demona's toes, but we're working on what is primarily a bug fix patch. No new content, but fixes for things that have been brought up. I don't have the complete list in front of me though. Tentative date is the 23rd during maintenance. Now why this is not shared here, why there is continued silence on the official forums I don't understand. The issues with the log in servers today were mentioned and talked about on the discord as well, but I don't see anything here addressing them. If they want to use discord as the official place to address the community, then they need to make a channel for these things and start posting there. This idea of spreading everything all over the place is unprofessional and nonsense. Pick a medium to use and then promote it and use it please. I don't think many people care if it is the forums or discord or facebook, sure some would prefer one over the other, but I think we all would welcome the use of something and stick to it and then use it.

    I saw a rift yesterday, it was more interesting than fighting a unique mob, but I still miss something there. The easiest change, if mob is pulled too far and then after he is pulling back he changes to ranged attacks for few hits. The rift area is a square, in corners I would suggest adding 4 seals that players have to defend against mobs. If mobs are on seal, they score points (something like capture the flag, but the flag is both mob and player). If at least one player is standing on seal simultaneously with mobs, no points are added. Portal spawns mobs in each wave with random orders, they can be orders for a group of mobs or different for each mob. The order is simple go to corner 1/2/3/4. In this way, players will have to divide into 4 groups and, during every wave, balance strength of each group so that all of them can fight off mob attacks. If mobs charge all seals players lose and portal stays and spawns mobs in a fixed amount there, they cannot migrate, but players cannot receive resource access reward. Points for killing mobs are given, but lower than in the case of a victory. Also next rift will be in same area. Mini-rifts Upon players defeat, mini-rifts are opened in random locations on map, which spawn 2 type of rifts mobs (2 weakest should be enough), 1 per hour and after a few hours mini-portal disappears and spawns elsewhere. Mobs from mini-rift have an additional ability, each of their hits will impose a status on player that prevents magic healing, so LT and healing spells will not work for 20-30 minutes after mob attacks. If players fail and mobs unlocked all seals, a maximum of 4 mini-portals will spawn at same time randomly on map. If players won, but mobs managed to unlock any seal, one mini-rift-portal is spawned for each unlocked seal.

    I hate rifts, but.... you barely touched rifts and next day got deep change suggestion for it?

    1. "Definition: A macro is any software/hardware that automates the sending of actions to the game server without user interaction and is not permitted." You are right! There has been some wording change and I mis-remembered the wording! In this case you are 100% correct. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The wording here says user interaction, which WOULD include voice commands! @validate 2. I never said 100% attention, I said more attention than staring at a tv and not looking at the screen. "you need to be attending this with more attention than just watching tv and not even looking at the screen." I used to use Wurm assistant with a timer that would start after it received the log that I finished a certain action, so that I could watch tv while fishing(before the fishing changes). After the timer ran it would make a noise so I could make sure to press the key again. I also had a specific sound for if my line snapped and I needed to replace it. 3. The problem comes is that just because there is a disconnect between the apps, by making a separate log file that another application reads, doesnt mean it isnt "automated" BUT you are correct in that it basically has the same outcome. The only difference here is that it is scanning the log files to change the macro. The "1uy2uy3uy4uy5uy" set up for automatically selecting the appropriate tool does need to be discussed further with the GM team. Let me do some testing on it real fast and I will edit this post with some more information depending on its outcome. Based on my testing: 1. The method of "1uy2uy3uy4uy5uy" IS NOT allowed unless you actually have 90 Mind Logic. The reason being that you WILL go over your action queue. " in order to fill your in game ACTION QUEUE " When doing this method the queues will go over the max action queue if the tool needed to imp is on 4 or 5, for most players. 2. When using the "1uy2uy3uy4uy5uy" method with out having 90 mind logic(and no delay), I was consistently running into times where the commands did not go through properly and the client would not receive the last 2 sets of imp and repair. The only way I was able to get it to work consistently was with a delay, which means it is still against the rules. "without any default, built-in, or added delay timings" TLDR: The "1uy2uy3uy4uy5uy", 'u' being improve and 'y' being repair, Is NOT allowed. While the voice commands ARE allowed since the wording is user interaction, provided the voice command follows the same rules as a macro key press. Note: These are based on direct interpretations of the CURRENT rules as of 21/9/2021. Changes can still be made, as technology changes and Wurm receives updates, things may be made clearer, tightened, or loosened. If you feel any thing said in this post is not correct, please send a Private Message to Enki via the forums.

    I seem to be in the minority here as I don't mind the delays and such, hell I back Star Citizen and if they ever do finish that game it'll be a couple DECADES late. My issue is with priority. Prior to the breeding changes, I made a post stating that it seemed weird and backwards to prioritize changing a perfectly functional and enjoyable system that we can already use, for something that is likely to be buggy and problematic, when there are far more important things dev time should be spent on in my opinion. Here we are much later, and though most people seemed to disagree with me at the time, the breeding changes have proven to be a huge problematic time sink and instead of fixing THAT the priority seems to have shifted to VR. Your players had some awesome suggestions for the breeding thing, but you went your own way. Your players keep telling you that your priorities don't make sense for the health and longevity of Wurm, but you go your own way. This has been the case as far back as I can remember. Originally I figured Rolf's vision was overriding player opinion, but Rolf is long gone. Now it is clear that they've made a habit of reading our opinions, occasionally responding to one or two, and then going off and doing whatever completely different thing they want regardless. I can't say for certain that this is really how the process goes, but it is certainly how it looks from player perspective. MANY MANY mistakes and problems and bad decisions over the years could have been avoided if you'd just listen to your paying customers. Not just hear them, actually listen. Imagine if further updates all became collaborative. Imagine if we got to vote and decide, as players, on dev time priority and implementation of new features. I'm pretty sure the game would be far more playable, and have a much easier time keeping new players. I do realize this is a double edged sword. My favorite MMORPG, EverQuest, was ruined because the devs listened too much to the loudest players and made the game too easy and removed every bit of challenge and risk from standard play. So I get it, I really do. Wurm's high difficulty staying difficult is one huge thing in its favor. However, at this point the remaining players are comfortable with this difficulty and aren't asking for an easier game. Maybe some QOL updates to remove some tedium, but I have seen very few suggestions aimed at reducing the actual challenges in the game. Please, work with us instead of against (or in spite of) us.

    it may not be necessary for you but thats information a lot of players are looking for and when its not on the wiki that just means cas have to remember it for every item to answer the questions about it that happen all the time. and 13% isnt the important information anyway, what you need to get 6%(the minimum) is more important.

    The Staff of Dragons, adorned by a tiny little replica of its namesake, has arrived! Available through the month of September in the Marks Shop at any settlement token, this skin can be applied to a metal staff to give it a unique and fancy look.

    I have to somewhat agree here, in case somebody cannot pay for premium because of real life issues he still will instantly loose premium once his premium time runs out. I also have to make sure that every project I work on is doing well even in my absence. That generally applies to every company. It also looks problematic since every developer currently seems to have real life stuff going on, hardly see any devs online nowadays.

    I love my VR heaset. I've done some work-arounds before to try it out in Wurm, and while not having native support damaged the experience a bit, I found it to be quite awesome to actually walk around my deed in VR and feel like I'm really there. It was a fantastic experience, and VR in Wurm is something I would very much like to have. That said, I've been bumping my bug report on the bug forum for literally YEARS and even when a dev told me a long time ago it was being worked on, it was never fixed. I was also very against the AH changes BEFORE they happened, and while lots of people argued with me that it was going to be great and sorely needed, I maintained that there are both far more important priorities for dev time, and that I lacked confidence that the changes would be better than what we already had. I'm not trying to say I told you so (though, I mean, I totally did), just want to say that while I absolutely love Wurm and still pour hundreds of my hard earned dollars into the game, please start listening to your own freaking players. WE are the ones opening our wallet and giving you money. WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE PAYING YOU???? VR? Yeah, would be great, but no. Spend some time fixing issues and addressing the concerns of your paying customers, THEN implement the gimmick that will cause the small financial bump before the numbers revert to normal. If you don't, your gimmick might LOSE you players/money in the longer term as player confidence is fading quickly. I apologize if my frustration is starting to show. EDITED TO ADD: I also want to point out that as someone who started this game on the Epic Cluster, I was there when a badly considered change was implemented despite the ACTUAL PLAYERS ON EPIC all telling you it was a terrible idea, and now my home cluster is a dead wasteland. I want to point out that DESPITE my home server and my home and my friends ALL being eliminated due to badly thought out changes and failure to listen to the players, I am STILL here and giving you my money. Please stop making me feel like a sucker, or like I'm in an abusive relationship just waiting for the abuser to finally change and stop abusing me. Listen to your own freaking players.

    Plan B doesnt exist in Wurm, not Demona`s fault but to have a contest ended and hanging in the air for a couple of months is not good, same with updates, where other devs normally use the days after to fix bugs etc, wurm just leave a broken update for months, some for years. im on now to pack everything away and get ready for a longer break(permament if things not getting better) As a paying costumer i just cant accept this anymore.

    You ever been along to a sermon and seen a horde of priests wearing their weapons like this? THAT WEAPON ISN'T BALANCED, HE'S BEEN HOLDING IT LIKE THAT FOR HOURS, HOW STRONG ARE HIS HANDS?! You ever looked down to see a big old shield by your side? You're just blacksmithing, but you know that if you take it off, you won't remember to re-equip it when a Venerable troll visits. What do you mean, Stan? I just love cooking with my shield out, it feels so natural, and no-one can see what's behind it! Presenting the solution: putting your gear on your back, automatically! I won't spoil for you how sick this looks with the new Dragon Staff "But Stan," you say having thought this through, "wouldn't it be silly to kill a mob then immediately have our weapons fly onto our backs?" Yes. It would, but thankfully this can serve a small gameplay purpose by piggybacking an existing system: for 5 minutes after combat, you cannot log out quickly (such as in a bed) or utilize a Portal. This could become an indicator for that - your weapons only being holstered when you would be able to log instantly/use a portal! Now it's functional AND slick!

    what do you win or lose from the mess, beside it bothering you somehow, it's obviously working perfectly fine.. it's an event with spawns that a group of people fight, it's not strict like the dumb blizard raid systems.. that's a bless and a curse, but it works. bigger difficulty and same or worse rewards.. sounds like a nerf no thanks 3. I'd hope to one day see rift gear improveable.. but so far it's junk that is not.. socket system that is wasted and only used on few items that are questionably reasonable to use, unless you're determined to have and use them on few nonmaintainable items, by mending and placing gems until they are completely spent.. only to then smelt them for mm lump. So far the suggestion is ridiculous, it's the usual format of solving non existing problem, with no problem to solve, just replacing something because a random thought have happened and turned into a forum post that suggests mechanic replacement with alien to the native game style into something different and questionably fitting this game universe. without changing the rewards into something epic... there's 0 reason to put more effort into rifts... ppl already hate the vent because of the time sink that it is.. and the low usability for the rewards

    Hello, It is a pity that Demona had problems irl and I wish her to solve them all. But we are customers and we pay .... Wurm is not a philanthropic work ... shareholders make money ... Regarding the competition deadlines, it's as if you were told when you drop off your broken down car at the garage, "Sorry, sir, but I have problems in my life, come back in 2 months when I can do the repair" It's making fun of its customers ..... too bad for the game ..... and shameful for the leaders of Wurm who take us for cash cows !!!!!!

    I agree it isn’t Demona’s fault and all this pressure isn’t helping either. But there should have been someone else to continue with it, and they should not have left it for a single person to do.

    I am just curious as to what was the point of the partnership with that esports company then? Samool said that it was done for this contest So where were they in this? And while its understandable that you had RL issues, but for any other product that we pay for, there are replacement persons and plan Bs for this sort of scenario and one person isn’t expected to do everything in case something happens to them. Which it did. So yes, the dev and management team IS RESPONSIBLE for not planning it out better and having no alternative replacements for over two months to carry this out with. For any other paid product, a secondary person would have publicly come out by now and carried the contest on, while apologising for your absence.

    you really need to separate what you are quoting from what you are writing. to make it easy you can just press enter a few times to make some empty lines below the quotes before you copy them and use those empty lines below to keep writing. my opinion as someone who has both been a chat moderator and a forum moderator, has received forum warnings for staff bashing and trolling and has been accused of all kinds of insane things is that you should focus less on how the rules could possibly be used if they were interpreted in the worst way possible and more on how they are actually used.

    I'm curious why we need some grand announcement about people being banned? At most in other multiplayer games you might get a vague post stating that "x amount of people were banned for cheating here's some links to the rules", etc. Why does it matter what people are whispering or what the specifics were? It's nothing to do with the rest of us players.

    I tried 3 breeding cycles the answer is no. you general get vibrant, picks stuff up, friendly and stationary. you loose dom category down to 1 trait if you are lucky. none if you are not. -- my experience may not be everyones experience and this is from before I logged out and refused to log back in. others might have better stats to offer you.

    Which really doesn't change anything. The closer the server comes to the end of it's lifespan the more deserted it would become as nobody would bother investing time/effort into it, while at the same time people looking to put a ton of effort into their deed just won't bother. And just to put things into perspective, I moved to Xanadu 6 years ago and started working on my current deed. At the current rate I won't be anywhere near finished with it within the next 4 years. A decade is nothing when you've only got a few weeks an hour, even more so when you take the occasional break of several months in order to prevent burnout and such. So even with a lifespan of over a decade, it's the long term players that would be affected by it the most, the players who tend to really stick around. I think that would also be the way to go. Perhaps one or more dedicated servers with scenario's like Jackal. Reset one every 6 months, and in case there is more than one such server, make sure there's always 6 months between the resets so the servers don't get in each others way.

    That doesn't work well for Wurm at all because Wurm is a very slow game, it can take a player years to fully build up a deed in the way they like it, with a lot of time, effort and silver invested into it. The moment such effort actively starts being wiped from any existing Freedom server is the moment this game instantly loses most of it's remaining players.
