General Discussion / Pirate Ship
January 25, 2011, 05:18:37 PM
The Pirate Quest slot machine has a 25% chance of giving out a pirate ship as it's reward. I thought it was a special ship and, when I got it, I saw that it was dyed red and had a special name, "The Dark Horror." Looks exactly like a normal boat in your pack, but you can't dock it.

I was thinking, even if you make the machine cost more to use and make them more rare, if you could actually make these boats usable. Even if you just dyed them and gave them a different name. Would be something vets could burn there gold on.

General Discussion / Lament on Ghost Cams
August 09, 2010, 07:27:56 PM
Let me start by saying that I don't mind player killing at all. I haven't been pk'd in weeks and I'm in FEL all the time. I was attacked a few days ago, but that didn't turn out too well for the pk's. I'm also for more FEL areas: Tokuno and the Abyss to start. More chances for players to run into each other, under FEL rules, makes game play much more interesting. My problem is with Ghost Cams.

A reasonably size PK guild, could very easily set up ghost cams in all the high traffic areas. Champs, Doom, Blighted Grove, Bedlam, Dojo and Mines, etc. Instead of actually checking these areas, from the safety of Insula, they can log onto another account, then check an area, log onto a different account, check an area. The delay would be minimal (five minutes for two spot checks?), with 10 cams total, per person!

This was corrected on OSI in Publish 59 and, officially published on all shards on July 14, 2009.

Publish 59
* Players can no longer log out without repercussions in Champ Spawn regions.
---- Players that log out in a champ spawn region will get teleported to a shrine.
---- If a player logs out in a champ spawn area all the non equipped "cursed" items on them will drop to the ground.
---- This will only affect players who log out beyond the 10 minute grace period; accidental disconnections will not be punished.
* Ghosts without corpses cannot enter Champ Spawn regions or log in to them.
* Ghosts without corpses will be automatically exorcised periodically.

This could be implented in all FEL areas. I'm thinking primarily of Champ Spawns, Doom(!!!), Blighted Grove, Bedlam, Dojo and Mines. Maybe for the Champ Spawns, make it for all T2A and FEL Dungeons. That shouldn't be too much work?
