Posted May 16, 2009 At a guess, it might have to do with the banning of Zarnibuddha... Wasn't this Inventor's account, who was involved in artwork for Wurm? They may have been asked to remove all of his models? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 At a guess, it might have to do with the banning of Zarnibuddha... Wasn't this Inventor's account, who was involved in artwork for Wurm? They may have been asked to remove all of his models? i know once upon a time he was, but iirc he withdrew his models ages ago..like the last beta. hence why the models are different now. correct me if im wrong though, im not completly sure xD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt rolf is accepting any assets for the game without the artists turning over all ownership of them to him because I think something like this happened long ago during a beta Most likely it's a texture refresh. He referenced the "go back to beta textures" thread and said that was close but not right. So it's probably new textures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 New Server AND different textures maybe, since I can't imagine the new server being too far away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 So we are having a sort of texture overhaul that makes wurm more gritty and rustic like beta? If so I will love you Kinoss... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 new models with even more poly making even more lag? sounds good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 You know what I'm thinking? A Combination of the Lot, with a major Skill Reset, the implementation of the Non-PvP Server, an enlargement of GV, and a general rehaul of the current maps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 You know what I'm thinking? A Combination of the Lot, with a major Skill Reset, the implementation of the Non-PvP Server, an enlargement of GV, and a general rehaul of the current maps. yeah sure, let's mess up the current maps and screw over everybody who spend ages on getting their skills up. The other two both sound fine, but those two really don't. But saying the same stuff all over again just as how it was said in all the other reset topics, nah, not in the mood for that at the moment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2009 Well, the previous time he posted something like this, GV was introduced. [me=Danypos]thinks the new server is arriving very soonish ;D[/me] Nobody is selling off any of their properties or items yet; so I don't know. I hope we get two or so weeks at least notice to sell off our valuables in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2009 So we are having a sort of texture overhaul that makes wurm more gritty and rustic like beta? If so I will love you Kinoss... This sounds most likely (and bloody awesome. While i do like the grittyness of the beta textues, their quality is nothing compared to the quality of the current regular stuff. So high quality gritty textures would be great!). besides, why would kinoss be announcing a total server reset/deletion etc. and not rolf? Bloody conspiracy theorists.

Posted May 17, 2009 I could only wish for a total skill/map reset so everyone would leave so I could play in peace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2009 Could be somthing simple like a way to destroy ovens, forges ,coffins, ect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2009 I could only wish for a total skill/map reset so everyone would leave so I could play in peace. cheers to that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2009 I think it's the religion overhaul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2009 iirc Kinoss does graphics, so forget religion overhaul, destruction of forges/ovens/coffins, resets, enlargement of GV, new non-PVP server and everything else that Rolf would announce. I may be wrong but it seems most likely to be a graphics 'cleansing' / overhaul. He even pointed to the "bring back rustic colours from beta" topic as the closest guess to what is happening.

Posted May 18, 2009 They're admittetly not too good at teasing so it's probably something simple, I give in to you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 19, 2009 My second guess... new towers and avatars for the new kingdom/server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 how about being able to use flags and pennants and being able to submit a town emblem through the website for including in the packs (after moderating) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 how about being able to use flags and pennants and being able to submit a town emblem through the website for including in the packs (after moderating) this was one of my guesses. The other has to do with either textures of animals or a different tree model Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
