Posted March 7, 2008 Animals and monsters that actually sleep. What happens is thus Mouse over creature. Mature Huge Spider [sleeping] (Different model for the creature, breathing animation?) What this does Reduces the Creatures Aggressive Range to jsut 1 or 2 tiles Allows you to Stealth up behind the creature Attacking a creature whilst it's asleep gives you a definate hit for the first blow unless using a bow. Allows for more Nocturnal animals to be more active during the night and none roaming at night etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 7, 2008 Have seen this used elsewhere and loved it, suddenly it gave you a reason to travel at night. They also had areas with creatures that only spawned between certain nightime hours and would despwan in the morning unless engaged in battle. Currently it is so dark at night in wurm that you might as well stay in your house or log out till morning. Sleeping and night spawn creatures would help change this, as would adding light from the moons of course... they could use the textures from the halloween guards for some of the night spawn creatures! anyway there are alot of enjoyable aspects from other places that could be drawn into wild, to add to the terraform and construction aspects that makes it unique...and would help keep it unique even with similarities in other areas to other mmos +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 7, 2008 You have a good idea there FullKontact; I would have loved having it before the nerfing of creatures. Now not so much. Maybe if they bring back the danger of creatures then. . . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2008 Having such creatures as spiders and wolves being more active and roaming (hunting?) during nighttime would be really cool! Animal strength needs to be boosted overall for that, however.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2008 Definitely. Just 1 suggestion: An animal woken from sleep becomes very angry and does more damage? Say 2x more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 9, 2008 Certainly would make stealth more useful, seems rather useless now. +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2008 makes moving along the highways at night so much easier, means I don't have to try and outrun bears, goblins, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2008 Definitely. Just 1 suggestion: An animal woken from sleep becomes very angry and does more damage? Say 2x more? I'd think it should do less, first of all its tactical, second, when you just wake up, do you feel like fighting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2008 I would just like to have not everything want to automatically want to kill you. This seems to be a decent way to accomplish that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 29, 2008 Two thumbs waaaay up. Anything that helps to make day and night in Wurm more unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2008 was it simplicity that made this idea so damn good? why no one had thought of this before? =P +2 even =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 30, 2008 +1 and by the time the art team come with a model use s ome "Z" thing floating above their heads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 1, 2008 This really needs to be implemented! Really makes night in Wurm less of a newb massacre or a pesky annoyance. +1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2008 What about having bears hibernate as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2008 This really needs to be implemented! Really makes night in Wurm less of a newb massacre or a pesky annoyance. +1 Most predators are Nocturnal.. so it actually could make it worse. But +1 to sleeping animals Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 2, 2008 I haven't even seen a bear in months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 4, 2008 "all right guys the bear is just over there, now are we all here, because that giant, fierce, brown bear with a name tag "Ahnold" looks pretty meen, good thing he's sleeping though" "so on 3 we rush right?" "no wait for the others" "howabout now?" "LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY JJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNKIIIIIIIIIIIIINSSSSSSSSSS" "run for your life!!!!!" yeah sounds like a good idea...

Posted August 30, 2021 I couldn't work out why couldn't find the heart button until I saw 2008. There are a number of special conditions for animals (raging, scared, etc) so why not sleeping? It makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 31, 2021 +1 I like the idea of nocturnal animals. On 8/29/2021 at 8:02 PM, TheTrickster said: I couldn't work out why couldn't find the heart button until I saw 2008. I think that's a guest thing. None of the names with guest have that option. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
