i forgot my summer bacon. get corn on the cob. in the husk. open the husk and wrap bacon around the corn and close the husk over it. tinfoil it. BBQ, bacon grease = pre buttered for you. after i think 20 min take off husk to crisp up the bacon. very well flavored . I also love to add 2-3 packs of bacon . crispy to my chili and for a great dip. 3-4 bars of cream cheese. 1 pack crispy bacon. and a medium jar of salsa. all of that in a blender. makes a huge bowl of dip. bacon here in Canada has doubled in price in the past 2 years. 8-9$ a pack cnd i think thats about 6-7 $usd. so we don't buy often now. i miss it. currently getting my bacon fix through mc donalds. chicken mc muffin add bacon. i get two for 9$ lol.

SHH it's ok if it doesn't devs can close this now.... lol

wow 2013 this started. please close thread now..... I win....

i love dipping bacon in Alfaro sauce. and i've made 2 bacon bombs in the past few years. can't make often as risk to heart.... how about you all?

" but if we remove the option to buy items with a purchased currency, surely the marks is not needed." ah don''t mess with my mark income .i prepay for 5 characters yearly. (300,000 a yr as a bonus) my 21 large magic chests are proof of that. and i feel it's worth pre-paying the year because of the mark system. i buy the trans rods now. plus that extra sleep hour and care for pet. if that went away i'd probably just go down to my main only. maybe my FO priest for the farming ect. others may do the same and thats again lost income for the game and yes i need all those chests. i have 6 work area's in my dual workshop. 2 per area. extra for smithing and kitchen. one in on deed wagon . lol wurm-acholic I am

i think i see what your saying. Wurm unlimited has a server siko" i cant spell it, siko may be the creator of it". i played a few times. one bounty for killing. 5s for building guard towers. and i recall something like 1 silver per 12 hrs logged in. i forget exactly what it was. but many of us just left our characters online over night for the extra coin. was a cool idea though. it got more of us playing on that server vs others as we did gain coin for being online, where the other servers may have had just the bounty for mob killing and bury. plus that WU server gave us a 11x11, or 11x21 deed for free zero upkeep. and make larger deeds with silver no extra upkeep. was appealing. But again WU servers are their own rulesets and not guarantied to be there the next day. wurm online is best the way it is to I think most of us, ya long term players. but even streamers have new players siding with the old ones on many discussions wurm related. Truely would love for the wurm unlimited to come out with a $30 DLC with all the current wurm online updates. and then you and others could make these idea's come to life. I'd come try it ,some ideas are good. But wurm online no touchy..... wurm online I feel and maybe others too. that it's not a game , it's a hobby. we play , we take breaks from and come back to play again, and hope for new things to add to our hobby. I have magic the gathering, DnD minis, warhammer, and flames of war, they each cost me $1000's to invest in.(almost got divorced, as i maxed out a new amx card 10k in 2 months shh, she only thinks it was 5k) wurm online I could pull up my paypal and show how much more i invested into wurm vs those combined over 13 yrs. many of us have a ton of passion, you can see in the forums when the CEO tried making changes, and devs tried taking away traders, maybe the CEO request who knows. I'm not trying to shoot down your ideas. glad you posted them. as sometimes good things come out of those ideas folks have. so please don't feel i'm flaming you is that the word? keep the ideas coming. thanks. ------------------- If the game could reward you with the same silver by playing the game, but not make it mandatory to survive, it would be healthier in my opinion. This is not me saying you should do something spesific to earn coin. There are other theme park games we can play. But atleast reward the players that choose to spend time in this game. Time spent ingame Money spent on subscription Reward the player that is spending time ingame Repeat

this part bugs me a bit. I play , I don't kill much at all. i'm on my deed 95% of the time building and crafting. so i would not get any reward? this would force me to go hunting which i hate doing. this game is sandbox. the play kill reward model is almost all the other mmo's . not wurms model I pray does not ever become that. i'd be cool if they added a bounty system for extra copper coins. on mission type killing. instead of sleep bonus only. add copper coin per kill, helping the mission. as i almost never do missions cus my sleep bonus is maxed to often. but that extra copper would get me out to hunt when i'm bored. but it that was the limit of how i can pay my upkeep and buy things. i'd never play wurm again. I buy 3-6 gold coins a yr on top of the 3g upkeep my 2 deeds cost me. first reason i don't do rifts to gain money from selling things from that. i don't hunt. and I don't make things to sell. as i use when i make. I like to buy mats for building and tools to help with crafting as i do spell cast yet. the 2nd main reason i buy the gold coins every year. is i know the cast flow helps the game. i'd love to see on wurmnode. the top 100 silver buyers. as we help the game a lot. and so does the ones who only buy prem time or that first silver bonus. we all add to the games income and get more out of the game because of it. we are all equal in this game. putting a play kill reward only system for silver in the game would put all the hunters to the top of the list. i don't like that at all. everyone does their own thing and make silver in their own way, don't change that. add more ways sure. but without changing the game as it is. and thank you for the other responses explaining a few things. The following example is often used in mmo: "God no, wurm should never become world of warcraft type of game" Play Kill Reward

sorry that seems great for a wurm unlimited server. not wurm. wurm is wurm. we love wurm as wurm. no touchy our wurm.... some ideas i do like. but the economy no. don't remove the silver and prem time. that brings the game a lot of money. and those of us who want to pay for a year at a time for multiple characters. and have large deeds costing 2 gold coins a year upkeep. should have that opportunity to buy with real money we saved up for to enjoy this game should have that choice. it does not give us an advantage over others. as this game is semi solo. and not a competitive game. we all play the way we want to , and that the best thing about wurm. Not trying to poop on your idea's I do like some. Economic structure. Some radical changes are needed to solve the inflation. We start at the core of it all, and i do believe that simplicity is key here. The main source of income for the company should always be subscription. This works if we give players incentive to play. Remove the possibility of buying silver with real life money. " NOPE Remove the possibility of buying premium with silver. "NOPE Remove marks. "NOPE it's a nice reward for us buying prem time Add ways of earning silver ingame by playing the game (missions, group tasks, fishing, killing etc). "YES cool ideas Keep the possibility to spend silver for upkeep. "umm of course Adjust the ingame shop, sell skins for real life money and remove all items from the window. "WHAT? Add other, ingame methods for buying items with silver. Something people spend time doing, but not make it tedious. The trader NPC was a good option, really. "WHAT? New players. We need to reward new players for long enough time, so that they get hooked and get to feel ownership of ingame progression and assets. Make everything much easier in the start. Ease the curve! "could be better tutorial and ya make the early game a bit easier sure Add real rewards for progression (give something cool when getting your first 10 total skill points, because why not?) "sure adding something like sleep bonus, as you have none until you sleep in a bed in a building, or even copper coins reward to help the new player gain coins toward buying a deed or needed tools ect. Adjust the skill cap for freemium to 30. If you still want stuff behind a premium wall (like todays 20) then move everything accordingly to 30. The point is to get people to play the game. "I have played almost a full yr with my main's skills dropped down to 20 skill, and had fun doing it. dont need high skills to play the game. make silver and buy what you need. higher a mason to build the stone building you want. free players 20 is fine. and they can prem once and gain better characteristics so they can still ride a horse and drive a cart as free player after prem runs out. Remove starter items. Players should be rewarded these by tasks, or buy them with earned coin. "i like the idea of the tutorial giving the starter items as they do it. maybe start with crude items and reward the better version for doing the tasks, add combat with crude sword. and have penned chickens or something easy to kill and then give the long sword and shield, maybe use pigs if they give leather. have the tutorial let you harvest leather and make the leather helm, then give the leather armor set for a reward finishing the tutorial. i'd like to see much longer option to tutorial. that they can do when ever they want ,not forced before leaving the area, like how to pick sprouts and replant trees. foraging and planting a farm tile, repairing times. walls fences, as off deed ones need it. we have posts on the tutorial ideas that should be added in. Change the tutorial to include real tasks, and reward with skill gain and starter items when completed. "ya good idea help speed up the early game a bit. not to much. this game is ment to be a grind. Remove the possibility to fail (in all ways) in the tutorial. "agree should be 50% or more chance, it's good to show the fail . but should not fail more then 2 tries Make the tutorial short. "yes the tutorial area tutorials should be short, but there should be a full . every thing type of tutorial, folks can choose to do when ever they want, buy opening it as they play, and gain reward for doing so, but not need to every do. a coin reward though would encourage then to do them. Progression. We want to reward players for playing the game. Add skill levels and character levels. " ? ? ? do you mean like RPG? Every skill gets 1 level per 10 skill point. This adds up to a max of 10 levels in each skill. Character level is automaticly equal to the combined total skill level. "wurmnode kinda shows this. with total skill levels we have. and can even see skill ranks vs others Add rewards for every character level. " could add copper coin reward for skills gaining every 10 lvls. a silver coin for every 90 skill Add a new task/quest/mission at every skill level (every 10 skill point today). These tasks should give rewards when completed, ie silver or even a new item. "the journal tasks kinda does this. as to do the task you need the skills to do it Add ingame character progression window, with trackers and graphs of your characters progression, titles, loyalty status with others, achievements, balances etc. " wurmnode. maybe could get added window ingame like the wiki is Community. Reward players for participating in interactions with other players, but not make it mandatory for progression. Measure time spent with other players in local. " why? maybe seeing how long we have had someone on our friends list Measure and track who you spend time with, so we can see the history. "why? Give loyalty status between players that spend time together. " many would just get together and leave characters online while they go to work or bed, easy to exploit Add a history of trades you have made (ie buy/sell via mail), that includes time, item, price and players involved. " adding all these logs just might slow down the game add lag ect. the forum buying info is kept. not sure why anyone would need to look up a past trade ingame though. I can see that i have 30 wagoneer orders that i got over the year, but i dont need to see that. Can always screen shot the trade Settlements and alliances. This needs to be utilized. Give the player the tools and a reason to develop a deed and alliance. Add a settlement journal. "do you mean who was in the deed and what skills they gained while grinding mats ect? if so not a bad idea. like to see a small log of skill gains to deed members. Add an alliance journal. " ? if like when ally came into your deed and maybe did things you allow like dig clay help rake your farm tiles. then that would be cool. I have ally that I allow to bring horses to breed, to see a journal of how many he bred this week would be neat. Add coat of arms to alliances everywhere. "yes to me the pvp islands the only ones allowed to make kingdoms bugs me. I 'd love to see alliances make these too. and of course add the flags banners ect to the allies Add a more indepth alliance window with information about deeds, mayors, citizens, tasks, skills etc." could do so. but each deed should set what info they are willing to share x " if you ment journals like deed or ally group tasks .like working on gaining 10k stone bricks. for project like bridge or large building. or canal making. and give small rewards for group tasks. that would be cool for sure. A lot of your ideas are good. a few seem to limit us players play style. we still need to all be able to play they way we want. the whole SANDBOX thing and all.

would it not be 100% easier to just take the website back to the way it was until it's truly ready?

i wonder about adding a controler or those small keyboard and mouse. i'd just want to be able to take it to work during my lunch, dont mind having a small keyboard to use.

thats not good news for PR at all. if anyone who was thinking of joining wurm. sees that. then they are most likely not coming to join us. this article did not need to leave our forums. change is always hard to deal with, some bad decisions for sure have happened. and good team members leaving hurts. but the guy is trying, he clearly does not know the game and the community. but has stated he is asking for feedback. "feedback" not a ton of negative posts trying to get him fired or to quit. 13 yrs i've been reading the forums. and 90% has been positive. then a few months ago bunny ears.. OMG why did that blow up so much hate for our devs. then ya the website was released to early unfinished that was a bad choice and he owned up to if and it's getting fixed. but the 90% positive is turning around to 90% negative like call of duty. shooter type or chat and WOW child like behavior in the forums. it really saddens me to see so much hate coming out in the past 3 months. I think all those who are so negative right now. should take a 3 month break play some other games , then come back. I had my 3 month break from april till july. I unfortunately kept checking the forums every 2 days. . and i'm not saying no one should feel the way they do about the game. just be more mature about it. can't saying anything nice don't say anything. our parents taught us. kinda...lol but I mean be constructive about it. join the team. talk to the team about ideas and ask to help. Make Wurm Great Again.... lol I love this game and the community . I would hate for all this hate to get the game shut down.

Guessing your not Married in real life. cus ya they are weapons

I became passionately pissed off then. cus to me it's about how much i spend on the game per year. I account for my game spending by saving on other things. like wearing the same under ware for the week "just kidding" but truly by eating out less and cut down ordering pizza. no alcohol ect.... 3 gold coins in upkeep a year would be almost 4 without the trader savings. add the 5 prem accounts pre-pay yearly, and the gold coins for game mats and tools per year. adds up fast. i use to eat mc donalds 5 mornings a week. 75$ now 2 25$. pizza every weekend for family 200$ so now once a month 50$ . movies once a month 20$ now never. not worth it. wait extra 2 months free stream. use to buy steam games monthly too 50-100$ but cut that way down sales only 15$ . saving $285 a month average, I put average of $150 a month into wurm and proudly do. upkeep without the trader would force me to add another 15$ a month . hmm guess thats 10% more seems small but still. I don't get a 10% raise at work so don't mess with my game spending lol, it's to early to do all this math.... Hi my name is Validate and i'm a wurmacholic \0/

there will be a shop option later on to get the discount. you just wont have the npc to place on the deed . so i'd buy one and hope you can hold it in your inventory until you place it. but you may get refunded instead

lol traders really only worth having if your deed upkeep is 10s or more a month. so you save a min 2s. I have one deed with 20s a month upkeep love the 4s savings. 9 months gives the 35s back then full savings 48s a year from then on. that makes it very worth it. I hope you can expand your deed some day. cus we can't move them to another deed.

i use to play trading sim games in the past. and one was with the real market numbers. i did well. putting 1-200 $ isn't to much and if lucky 5-10 yrs from now double it. that better then bank interest. and invest low so if it looses, it won't bother me.

Game Chest Group GAMEC 0.692 -0.068 -8.95% 0.70 0.648 36,980 55,218 I was trying to find away to invest and buy some stocks for them. but it's a huge pain to do from overseas. seems we need to set up a swedish bank about to put the funds in, then buy stocks. I was hoping we could just do it from our own country system and they buy it from them for us. would be cool if they put an easy way to buy the company stocks on this website. just use our login info add our real info to it. and sell us stocks on wurms shop store. i'd buy some. the shares are really cheap right now 0.692 sweden money. i think thats 9 cents Canadian. 55,218 shares. hmm my math has that just under 5000 $ . i dont think i'm reading that right. lol oh well until i can invest. i'll just buy more gold coins for wurm and save up for the yr prem time sale .

i can see newer players complaining if they come from the bigger games that release bi-weekly or monthly updates. but this is wurm. playing over 13 yrs now. I've seen so many awesome updates over that time. they don't come monthly that's for sure. but what does the community really want (1.rushed updates that may or may not work. may or may not please you) or (2. updates that where the time was taken to try to make it 90-100% work possible need for small patches. and again may or may not please you) I would love to see so much more added to the game. but the team is small, they can only do so much, and most of them have day jobs, they can't work 8+ hrs a day on content. every one really needs to calm down and just let it happen. the poor team having to read so much negativity I feel we are lucky they don't just walk out, and leave the game as is. respect goes a long way. go a head and make your comments and suggestions just re-read what you typed up before posting and ask yourself is that to negative? would you hate to read that from your customers in your life, vs just being told the job was ok, but maybe do this next time..... I too complain though. guilty also. the trader removing thing made me flip my lid, but that was because it would add more real money cost to my game play, vs complaining about bunny ears loosing emersion . a lot of us have a ton of passion for this game. and I read many of the post from the past few updates. and agree with many of them. but way to many of them were pointless negativity. I just like to see more support and encouragement .

"It does not really help with the feeling of emptyness, I agree. From a technical aspect, that's easy to do, but then we have to consider the implications for our players. But bringing players together is a key focus for me. Thanks Nitram!" please merge the 250 that play on the SFI with the 250 players that play on the NFI . that would bring a lot of us together......

the logo gives me a WOW as in not wow looks cool. but WOW world of warcraft vibe. why not use the textures from the game ORE types for the back ground. I do like the website change though. Should have a contest for the logo. with the community for like 50 silver 1st place 20 s 2nd 5 s 3rd. bet one it would be fun. two it would find a nice one to use that everyone ,.well most would like

like the announcement of removing traders. that was a fun week..lol glad they announced a head though. vs just doing it. as the back lash was bad enough from the news. can't imagine if they just did it.lol was there a june skin? i forget.
