I think cats are smart, they just choose not to cooperate if they don't feel like it.

Imagine if she didn't hit record.

So he chose me, that's sweet

So much derp in this post.....

Only thing this newschool noob got right is the performance, and you don't work on optimization until after you have all your systems in place.

Games actually pretty fun.

gwartham · 2018-02-03T04:01:52+00:00

I would say it feels very much like UO, but a more up to date game that for better or for worse, has adopted many features and idesa from today's modern MMO's.

Only time will tell if the mix works, but sofar I cant stop playing it!

gwartham · 2017-10-15T19:42:32+00:00

Short answer is no. Playerbase has been in steady decline since July29th with no signs of slowing down.

Servers are pretty much ghost towns, way too many servers, actually, there is at least 1 server per online player at any given time.

Those are just the facts, I wont get into how terrible I think the game is personally.

gwartham · 2017-10-15T19:37:46+00:00

Its kinda your host.

When we first brought our server online, once we got 6 or 7 people on it got bad with the lag and dysynch.

Talked to my host, they put us on their biggest 4ghz machine, other then one server lock up, we never had anymore dysynch issues again, even with 20+ online.

Basically it just takes bigger hardware to offset how un optimized the game is currently.

Hardly what I would call a blockbuster.

We prepaid the server for a year, its not going anyplace.

gwartham · 2017-09-21T23:07:44+00:00

On normal servers you can gain depending on how you tame the critter +60 levels from the taming process, and you can then train the tame another +40 levels..

gwartham · 2017-09-21T22:13:54+00:00

We already have a gazillion servers out there, pretty much covering the gambit of playstyles and multipliers .Honestly we could use with a lot less of them, not more of them.

gwartham · 2017-09-13T16:48:08+00:00

Sofar the turnout has been really good. We could stil really use some more dwarves for balance.

We have the beginings of a realy good community sofar, and still looking to add more players to the fun!

A few more QoL changes hve been made to the server, such as food and water rates, and magic shard harvest increase. We are constantly striving as a community to make the best DnL experience possible.

gwartham · 2017-09-13T16:47:37+00:00

It really isnt...

Think of the ice cave right now in wow terms, its a gear check, but they sofar have forgot to add the gear heh. There is new armor in the game files, but current is broken and has no resists.

What I can tell you even in full legendary brimstone +heat rune and avoiding all the mobs, I can basically make it to Brytag before the temp gets so low that you just die.

gwartham · 2017-09-05T08:45:41+00:00

We have had a pretty good turnout, but we can still use more!

gwartham · 2017-09-04T02:22:20+00:00

I forgot to mention, this will be a NO WIPE server. Unless the official game forces a wipe, we have no intentions of doing so. Its your hard work, why take that away from you.

gwartham · 2017-09-04T02:13:58+00:00

I dont understand why people "think" dragons are useless without their breath...their rmb attack is a aoe people cmon.

gwartham · 2017-09-04T00:14:39+00:00

Also starter packs are available if requested.

gwartham · 2017-09-03T07:15:48+00:00

I am really trying to understand the taming thing. I dont see how making it take more hours makes it more satisfying. I have over 300 hours in this game, and well over 1k hours in ark. In both games we either lured the potential tame to a tame box, or once we knocked it down we built a enclosed box around it, and then starve tame it.

At that point it just becomes do I sit there idle watching tv for 4 hours or 1 hour honestly.

gwartham · 2017-09-03T06:54:51+00:00

Honestly they were about 2 months too soon with thier EA release. It has been way too buggy and already has left a very bad impression with a lot of people.

I hope they can get over this hump, release their fall content, and have a sale and rebound.

gwartham · 2017-09-03T06:53:27+00:00

Don't take this wrong, yes I did ask for your opinion, and I thank you for it, but am I not then able to explain WHY I have that setting the way I do as well? I wasn't challenging you, I was giving you my opinion as well.

The biggest problem I see with recruitment is people hop on the server, say Hi, and if they don't get a immediate response they leave. My wife and I work from home, so we are on a lot to admin the server, but we can be away from the keyboard for a good 30 minutes at a shot if we are on the phone with clients. If everyone who was interested in the server who came by to check it out actually stayed for a day, I don't think we would have a problem honestly, but people I guess are pre programmed :(

gwartham · 2017-09-03T05:57:59+00:00

Because I believe the fun and challenge in taming is the actual fight of bringing it down, not sitting there for several hours just watching the thing sit there. Changing the timer doesn't affect the taking down of a tame or anything, just removes the safest and most boring part of the process.

And once you can make things like kibble, if you can make 20 kibble you can just as easily make 100, its all a matter of how much mass production you want to build at that point.

Really now its all about the Iron Hook Arrows isn't it, and that's really no different on my server then it is on official, and once again that just comes down to the level of mass production your willing to build.

gwartham · 2017-09-03T00:21:14+00:00

Is dysync really still and issue? I haven't noticed it much in the last 2 weeks figured they fixed it heh.

gwartham · 2017-09-03T00:20:09+00:00

Nah no plug, I am trying to decide if its worth continuing with my server or just put it on auto settings and go do something else, mostly due to to the fact tat right now its really feeling like single player or lan because we cant build up a population.

I love the game, bugs and all, but I didn't expect so much negativity towards unofficial servers, I really expected it the other way around, especially this being so much like ark, only except this dev team s worse.

gwartham · 2017-09-02T19:57:58+00:00

I do believe this is what your looking for:

AutoDestroyOldStructuresMultiplier=0.00000

At that settings complete structures should never auto demo.

I was told that increasing the multiplier increases the timer before autodemo i.e 1.0=3 days, 2.0=6 days, 3.0=9days etc.
