Jackal is a re-themed Wurm pretty much with focus on cleansing the map from Rift creatures. All of the trees, creatures and some other stuff are different models. You can get a bug mount (Reminds me of UO beetles). Different trees/woods to craft items from that are not in Original Wurm. Always wanted some of the wood from Jackal to come to Original Wurm from using Jackal points. Skins and Woods are decent rewards for being over there. Was more than a test server. Was something fresh to do. I'm a broken record on Jackal.

Thank you and glad you included board games (Checkers) we can play with others. Was hoping we could get something more advanced like chess? Let us make generic chess pieces you can get by crafting different wood or stones and advanced looking pieces from archeology. Don't need to build in game logic and just have pieces snap to a squares on the board with a side area to put pieces not on the board anymore. Would open up other possibilities for different games too since no logic. Kind of wish Checkers didn't have the logic so could do other things with game, but hey it works well though.

Where you get the Captain Caveman shirt?

You know why no one rides a unicorn or hell horse? Because everything in the game is trying to kill it and if you're riding it while fighting a mob, the mob kills your mount. We have gear for unicorns and guessing maybe can put on hell horses, but there's no point since you can't keep your mount alive. Out in the middle of the woods with a bunch of mobs and no horses to ride, but bunch of wild unicorns. I spent a lot of time on taming skill to 50 so lets tame and ride a unicorn since walking in full gear in grass is slow. Tame first unicorn and troll and bear come out of freakin no where and start attacking it. Kill them off while they killed the unicorn so I tame 2nd unicorn. Lets go ride up to a troll and fight it. Well unicorn wants to be part of the fight so troll kills it while I'm bashing the troll. Tame 3rd unicorn for the hell of it. No mobs so good to go and don't have to run around naked to get speed. I go to the bathroom AFK for a few minutes and come back and my unicorn I was riding is dead and I find I killed troll while AFK. WTF! Wild horse wouldn't have died if that was an option to ride at the time. Can you change mounts being tamed not aggro everything in game so we can use them as actual mounts? Can't hitch a unicorn to a cart so they are completely useless except butchering.

I like it. It does seem to be a bit short though.

Bring back Jackal to NFI and SFI so they can play together. Opens up new ways to play and new lands to explore without affecting anything between NFI and SFI servers. Be cool to have Jackal server be PvE for 6 months then have it change to Jackal being reset and PvP next 6 months. Keep resetting and changing them out every 6 months. I think that would bring a great rotation to Wurm for everyone (NFI/SFI) and not going stale.

Yes different poses. I remember when they did this back in Ultima Online 20+ years ago.

I'm fine with just 1:1 with no types of gains. The Jackal server itself is incentive enough to play with the different environment, scenery and reason (the goal) to be there. As long as all the grinding skill I did on Jackal is 1:1 back to freedom I'm happy. Hunting over there and earn Jackal Points to get some Jackal type wood or skins back on Freedom. Even if no rewards I'd still do Jackal for the fun of it. Just want something else to do. That's why don't want to start over at zero. Then I'm just mining for 2 days straight to get my base skills up. Boring. I don't remember if they allowed enchanting, but If they do this with no skill reset, they shouldn't allow enchants on anything or I feel it would turn into some advantage and others just doing Jackal to make money. Instead of a grind it would be waiting for others to sell advanced gear/weapons. I think it would ruin any type of balance to Jackal mobs since they have to account for some people not having an advantage with enchants and others to that have LT and other enchants. They should let NFI and SFI both do Jackal together. Be the only way to meet up with others and have some fun and meet new people .

Give me a reason to pay premium.

Any way to get different death models of creatures so they don't all look the same?

Be nice if /balances showed all currency that can could be possibly spent like rift point, karma, bank, whatever else there is. Might have currency in something you didn't realize you could spend.

What? It takes 45 seconds per tile for me. I'll queue up 6 actions, alt-tab and forget I was in Wurm since it takes 5 minutes to do 6 tiles. I guess I need some woa.

I remember Retro used to have global messages in server about joining them on the test server to help out for a little bit and you'll get a present. They could still do the same thing and give out a sleep powder as long as you post on the dedicated forum thread for that testing of your experience and issues.

Make a wagon model we can create that doesn't have a cloth cover. Would look cool with just the wood framing anyways. Have different designed (like tapestry designs) cloth covers we can put on the wagon. Let us dye the cloth covers solid or multiple colors if not want a pictured type one. Edit: We have all these metals, hook us up with some gold or glimmer wagon rims. j/k, but I'm down if they add this. lol

I dunno, maybe I'm wrong and they all on payroll.

They have community volunteers on the forums that work with the Wurm team to give players information about the game, new features, etc that no one else knows about so I figured they worked with someone to kick off some updates/changes to the wiki also.

I'd feel free to contribute if I knew wtf I was doing and understood this update. I know it's a small team, but I kind of expect a new feature "the in-game wiki" that was just added to the game to have the new changes in it. It's not a complaint, it's a legitimate question. Usually the wiki has much better defined information in it than patch notes and that's what I'm looking for.

Be cool if also a way to get a forecast for the day also. /weather [00:00:00] The air feels really dry. (no rain predicted for the next few wurm days - good for hay tiles) [00:00:00] The air feels kind of damp. (possibly of rain in next few wurm days) [00:00:00] The distant sky is looking thick and muggy. (possibly about to have fog same day) [00:00:00] You sense a bad storm looming. (a gale wind coming soon) [00:00:00] You feel the wind starting to calm. (lesser wind coming soon) [00:00:00] You feel a chill in the air. (going to snow next time you login or it's already snowing) [00:00:00] (throw in some valrei related stuff for fun like you see a meteor shower instead of only seeing an status icon for it.)

We have in-game wiki, but when is wurmpedia being updated? No mention of new animal handling, horses, donkey, hay or new items. Have to rely on patch notes and word of mouth for now.

I deleted the wurm-launcher directory, downloaded a new tar from wurmonline.com and now works fine.

Have Nvidia 1650 on Kubuntu 21.04 and Wurm was working last night, but today after update not working anymore.

Bring back Jackal, but do a 1:1 skill transfer instead of starting from zero.

I'd like to see Jackal back also even if have to pay an entry fee like 5s. Only if it was a 1:1 skill transfer and don't have to from zero skill.

Can you make killing champion creatures more rewarding? Recipes on humanoids has been a great addition. Would like to see when killing a champ that is already part of the game: All creatures - double amount of butchered items. All creatures - higher chance at getting rare roll for coin. Humanoid - chance at dropping enchanted item like archeology (blade, tool, weapon, not resources though). Humanoids - chance at dropping an advanced high ql report or rare report from archeology or tree/bush based on where the creature was killed. Troll - chance at troll dropping rare club. Non-humanoid - chance at dropping enchanted blade like archeology. As if got stuck in it from being attacked by a troll and escaped (little bit of lore). Humanoid - chance at dropping skins for clothing, weapons, tools, etc I'd really like to see all champs drop pieces of an item, skins, furniture, weapon, armor, tool, clothing, etc that is put together like restoration, but items are exclusive to champion creatures so different from archeology. Give us troll clothing we can collect from champ trolls to wear or sell. We already have a troll club. Pieces of new bear helm like archeology masks. Champ goblin might be carrying a new type of cooking pot we can collect from their body or unique looking pottery bowl.
