Posted January 14, 2013 Very good indeed. A freedom kingdom + pmk's is what I vote for, it will keep pm checks away. But whatever Rolf do I support it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 14, 2013 :-\ This sounds like it could seriously hamper the ability of the 4 serves on of epic to attract freedom residents. Thus endangering our prospects for future growth and even further dividing our population at a time when Epics prospects where just ramping up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14, 2013 Rolf, if you want to make changes to how wall bashing/catapulting works, here are two good threads with suggestions (mostly meant for Epic, but should work on Chaos as well):http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/73292-catapults-and-multistory-housing/http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/72914-catapulting/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) The first thing to prepare for is that we may make it so you can pass walls and fences with much damage (like 50+). The reason for this is that maybe raiders will save some walls and fences instead of totally destroying them so that you don't have to rebuild from scratch. Hopefully it may remove some feeling of grief to raided deeds. Damage to walls and repair time will be adjusted a bit at the same time.Ok removed the first change part for now. I still really like this idea. I don't think it would have as much of an effect on raiding as people think. Catapult wall down to 50 or whatever dmg required, send in people to kill any repairers, then completely destroy the wall to leave yourself an exit. If anything it means quicker access to the deed no? With multistory buildings now in game, the time taken to build nice structures has gone up drastically, entire walls (edit: not to mention floors and roof!) should not be able to be completely destroyed with a few flicks of a catapult, nor should all upper floors need to be destroyed to access a house. Rather than dismiss the idea out of hand, Chaos folk, can't we talk about workarounds and special rules for broken walls when enemies are in local like other aspects of the game?

Posted January 14, 2013 Hey rolfie, can get get a free settlement pull-up when this is all ready to help people move over ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Hey rolfie, can get get a free settlement pull-up when this is all ready to help people move over ?how about giving free settlement pullups freedom wide if you are going to do that.Choas already had one of these and people knew what was going on they also had trader refunds as well.

Posted January 14, 2013 This isn't really something that is broken, so please leave it alone, it doesn't require changes. If someone wants to grief a deed, they will do it anyway. If someone thinks breaking one wall per house is griefing they need to reconsider living on a pvp server.Everyone of you CA guys needs to respect Rolf, and his decisions. He has made an amazing game and your 2 cents are worthless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Everyone of you CA guys needs to respect Rolf, and his decisions. He has made an amazing game and your 2 cents are worthless.Excuse me, we CA guys? Are we the bad ones here? What makes you think we don't respect him, just because we don't agree? Are we not allowed to come with suggestions or say what we think is best? We are not worthless either. We volunteer to help the community.To me it sounds like you are afraid to be griefed. I have to agree with MrGary, If someone thinks breaking one wall per house is griefing they need to reconsider living on a pvp server. He has been around for 2 years+ and you have been around for what, a month? I think you have to realise that catapulting have been like this for a long time, deal with it or chose a diffrent server.In the future keep your opinions to yourself if it uncludes insulting others, you obviosly have no idea what you are talking about.

Posted January 14, 2013 I think that if kingdoms were brought back then there should be a HoTS on Chaos. Bring back the evil!!! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Hots kingdom, yeah maybe. But Rolf said Libila will never be back on chaos, which I think is very very sad, it would bring back a bunch of players. Edited January 14, 2013 by Sharkin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
