    oh god no

     

     

    please please please for the love of god please allow a long period of time  for user testing and feedback for this feature, this can even be one that takes 5 years to implement god damn 

    Auction House is on the Kanga Private Server run by Budda.  You need a Merchant Contract to sell items in your shop.  The shop gets linked to the Auction Menu which gets accessed through a mailbox. 

    It is very simple and still requires you to buy a Merchant Contract for a shop if you want to sell items.  It just makes it more easy to sell certain items.  Bulk items are still ship deliveries...etc.

    if the Auction House works like it does on the Kanga Private server then there should be nothing to worry about.

    @ChakronMaybe for some it was.

     

    It's not really gameplay....It more so goes towards the idle game play where the game does its own thing while you go and do something else. 

     

    Maybe good for chatting with friends in game though while a skill goes up on its own.

     

    I know that I used to put on YouTube videos while playing wurm doing mining.   This was more so cause, I would not of been able to handle just watching the long timers otherwise. 


  3. The only thing I would say is, if you attack a monster and then retreat back to your fire, that the monster does not stop attacking you.

     

    Otherwise if monsters were just afraid of fire all the time then people could either retreat back to the fire to recover or shoot at the monster with arrows.

     

    Good idea though 👍

    Unfortunately WU servers are incentivized to fake their numbers, which is what most do,. This lets them appear at the top of the list when sorted by player count, which is what most people sort by when looking for a server. So most of the WU servers at the top, making the bulk of that player count, are smoke and mirrors.

     

    Ah Okay, I wondered why "The Bar 7 years and running" server always seems to have such high player counts but when I joined it before, it seemed empty. 

    Thanks for telling me.

    i think its to late to turn around now, WU has fallen to far behind, and im not sure the community is large enough to it been worth it.


    Going by the player count on Wurm Unlimited Servers added up at the current time -

    There are currently 585 Accounts on Wurm Unlimited Servers.

    From Link - There are currently 602 Accounts on the Official Wurm Online Servers.
    So only 17 accounts between them.  So there are enough accounts at least to make it worth while in a sense.

     

    Edit: It seems that some servers on wurm unlimited inflate their player numbers - TY Munster for telling me.


    However, I don't want any mandatory wurm online updates to come to Wurm Unlimited.  The users have created alot of mods that fill gaps of content that wurm online might have/not have already. Also new updates would mess around with mods and even more so mods that might not be getting updates anymore but that are used alot.

    I would also think it would be a upset to have the wurm team come back all of a sudden after years upon years of no support (Which the user modders have filled) and for them to say "BTW....We are releasing a new update to wurm unlimited and everything from current wurm is going to be introduced.  Rejoice! 😀 "  

    Cause it screws things up. Wurm Unlimited is kind of like Old School Runescape in a way as in it being a time capsule but with mods.   I say, leave it be and let the users deal with it as they have been doing.

     

    If wurm staff would like to develop mods for wurm unlimited then cool cause then the users can install it themselves if they want but it being a mandatory thing. No.


  6. I have some questions then:

     

    If I come over to chaos by boat and park on the shore + place my tent down by my ship, what happens if I die to another player?

     

    As in: can my tent be destroyed by another player?  How quickly could my boat be taken?  I'm guessing the lock ql plays a part but I don't know how.

     

    It is more so knowing that I have an escape route to go back to freedom Isles and that I don't become stuck on the pvp server in a starter town.

     

    If I know that I won't get stuck then I am more likely to come over and want to check things out.

    Tell mother nature she does look silly and doesnt make sense....

    I think there is a big difference between that what you showed and the ice cream/salt looking splats which the screenshots in the first post look like.  I also do not think it helps matters that the trees in the distance do not have snow on them and yet snow piles are in the desert at a time of year when it is more warm.

     

    I'm not sure though what the replacement should be......Ah!  A mini snow pyramid....Though, I would like that as an item....


  8. Well, I've seen quite a fair amount of people discussing about the recent changes and yeah, quite alot of people are not happy.

     

    Though, Ostentatio has responded to people on discord that were talking about having to pay to clear up nodes from deeds and other issues.

     

    He is going to talk about these concerns with the dev team, so hopefully a decision will be made soon after the feedback.

     Not being able to enjoy my clean/tidy build (that took moments to years to accomplish) due to being trashed out by random clutter is simply rude..

    a key appeal and player benefit has been that funded deeds were exempt from the encroaching wilds (as they've been for many years).. hopefully, the dev's are aware that keeping players who've been paying the bills for years is less expensive than attracting new players.. if not, the value of core/long-time players is being made very clear (unlike my lawns, thanks to this recent patch)..

     

    If you have a spirit guard then it acts as a groundskeeper which stops nodes from appearing on deed. That's the only option there is currently it seems to disable them on deed.

     

    It would be better if there was just an option in the deed settings to disable them on deed. 


  10. For some reason, I'm remembering the whole Jimmy Carr news hype and "cancelling".

     

    Jimmy Carr condemned for ‘abhorrent’ Holocaust joke about Roma people

     

    I think that the wurm team should of looked at his content first and decided if it fit wurm. Though, I guess this is a lesson to be learnt from.

     

    There are audiences who like stuff like that, though normally the comedian is labelled as an offensive comedian and that's just what "style" of comedy they have.

     

    Though, they are certainly a gamble for representing a brand. And certain "jokes" also won't work unless you fit the niche. So they are very polarising and probably not the best choice when just launching a program.

    The issue for me is the part I enlarged and put in bold.

    You're basically the second person who admits dat Army didn't contact him / her.

    Which gives me the impression that the entire old VEN streamers are just pushed aside for someone who's never been part of VEN in the first place; but just got chosen because he had the largest audience right now.

     

    To me  that smells of favoritism as well as disrespect to those who have worked hard to make VEN big. Even now, while it's something that's going to end.

    Quite often,  the next step following that, will be someone getting a promotion (s)he doesn't deserve, before the whole thing goes down the drain.

    And somehow I have the feeling that already started; when comparing the VEN start and Wha.... WurmTV start, with the latter certainly getting more negative publicity as good ones. And in this case, negative publicity after all the "errors" and "mistakes" made in the past half year are NOT a good thing. Even despite an "Ich habe as nicht gewüßt" appology.

     

    Thorin

    Ham says in his newest stream that he applied for a spot.  People were not contacted first, they had to fill out details and see if they would be accepted or not.

     

    So other wurm steamers would have to apply to get accepted 🙂   So if any other wurm steamer would like to be apart of the new streaming service, they just have to apply.

     

    I'm thinking that this point should of been highlighted more perhaps in a previous val topic, if it was not.  To say that they will not be contacting people to take part and that they have to apply through a official channel. 


  12. Won't work because wurm unlimited users also use the forums. 

     

    Unless wurm unlimited gets its own separate forum/website with its own code away from this one but what would happen to all of their topics?   I'm not sure how you would be able to transfer topics to another website.

     

    Wurm unlimited users might not play the main wurm online game and so won't be premium and won't have a wurm online account linked either to them.  Which would mean that they would not be able to post in their own forums. 


  13. I've not seen a website offer a way to change their own logo's before for their userbase online.  Also cookies would not be a good way to do it anyway since not everyone accepts cookies or wants cookies on their machine (As per the cookie pop up box that comes up offering you that option)

    I've normally seen users create either add ons for internet browsers to revert back websites to a older state graphically or provide mirror websites that host a old version of the website with fixed links so that everything works correctly. 

     

    If users want that experience then it is up to them to provide it and not the company. It is also best for it to work only locally on the users machine too, to try and avoid shut down from the company.

    I don't think a holy knight would ride on a demon steed. Perhaps you meant unholy?

    Nope, he is holy.  He knows that he has darkness inside himself.  The demon horse is a manifestation of his shadow self.  The demon inside if you will.

     

    He knows what he can do and accepts it.  If he pushed it away then he would become controlled by the darkness inside because he would then become blind/ignorant to it.

     

    Then he would become unholy and fall into darkness.  The holiness is a manifestation of awareness.

    The Holy Knight rides in on his Demon Steed.
    With the power of light and darkness he can handle whatever the wurm forums throw his way.
    He is the beacon in the night.
    Take hold of his steed and understand yourself, deep inside because the powers of the underworld flow through us all.

    I claim this topic with the powers of light and darkness. 
    Come and face me if you dare.
    I challenge you out there!
    Show me and the world what you've got!
