Posted July 23, 2020 7 minutes ago, Anonymous said: Why are you putting in skill gain bonus at the start of PvP server? You forcing people to stay in and play at start for the weekend, people calling in sick to work just beacuse they dont wanna miss the skillgain bonus out. Whats the reasoning behind that? They have the entire weekend to make use of the xp bonus. There's really not a better time the devs could have made the event for working people. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 23, 2020 but people like me who do work on the weekends dont get to take advantage for this bonus. Thats why general rule of thumb on things like this (if you want to be fair) is make it 7 days long. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 23, 2020 (edited) The bonus skillgain timer should be like the newbie food and aggro timers, where it's based on the amount of time logged in to the game. That way, it's the same amount of time for everyone no matter when or how much they play. Nevermind, the incentive could be to have as many people log in as possible at the start to be able to report high numbers.

Posted July 23, 2020 Is there going to be one or two spawns on the PvE server? Twitter mentions only one settlement being founded, but the stats show that there are two deeds currently on Harmony. https://harmony.game.wurmonline.com/mrtg/villages.html 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually scratch that, what about workers on a rig off the coast...hmm. I guess they need to make it at least 1 year of bonus to be fair... You know what, come to think if it, I guess it'll never be fair for everyone... 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 23, 2020 I'am very curious, how those in-game maps are done (pictures)? Is it possible to get bigger version of pictures of already existing maps? Those in-game ones, are small and some people would like to have bigger versions to make their own maps. I know that we have map dumps but this version is nicer in my opinion.

That will be very rapidly resolved as people mass butcher sheep cows chickens pigs horses and dogs for easy starting fight skill. I think we will be lucky to see anything other than trolls, spiders, bears and the like after the first week. Well, except maybe unicorns and seals.

Posted July 23, 2020 HOTS starts on the bigger island north of the smaller one, with the extended tower chain range it does reach the land north west by them, we are considering spawning in an additional island to make the gap to the west smaller to those lands tho. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't forget, they recently downgraded starter gear from the pheasant-killing 50Q longsword/30Q armor, down to chicken-killing 20Q/10Q sets. Pheasants will reign the land once more. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
