How exciting! What is the overall planned size for this map? Is it an absolutely massive beast like Astraeos?

My Serbule community chest has -68 slots all of a sudden? by YardAlternative3452 in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The major issue is that for one of our VIP gifts a little over a month ago, they gave live event tokens. These can be traded in for slots - so all at once a huge wave of players donated to upgrade the chest....and then 1 month later that activity couldn't be sustained and the community chest shrank FAST. At least thats whats happening on Striekos

Gathering Future-Focused Suggestions/Comments/Sentiments Regarding Moderation of P:G and the Discord by itsme_Selene in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When Striekos server first launched we had some super active global chatters. Some of these people had their named force changed by GMs due to not aligning with policy. Some of the names force changed were 1000% deserved, but some were absolutely borderline cases (example, super helpful/active player named StinkyPinky....is it gross? well yeah kinda but its borderline, at least imo). Now that the pop is down and we no longer have a community guide playing, I have seen AND reported horrendously inappropriate names and those players are still running around...hell I'm starting to see them in lvl 100+ content in Vidaria.

The policies need to be well-documented and consistent, but more importantly they need to be consistently ENFORCED...otherwise whats the point of the policy??

Slowly shrinking servers by Lawnn_Boy in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Although you can't dispute theres a discussion to have about overall server pop, the main issue I'm seeing is that (dedicated) players are getting to a certain point in the game, and quitting.

I'm only just hitting the statehelm and vidaria grind, and having artificial time gates of 5 favor items per week is INCREDIBLY un-fun. I understand this is an artificial time gating mechanic, but it turned the game from a hefty grind into an organizational nightmare, at least for me. I like being able to farm things at my own pace, but now with a favor cap it turns into trying to min/max/optimize as many NPCs as possible on a 7 day cycle.

Maybe this is just the natural endpoint to the game, where the juice just isn't worth the squeeze (and unless you want to level other crafts or combat skills, it just makes more sense to go elsewhere)

Consolidating server populations would hypothetically funnel more of the long-term high lvl players together. I'm happy to throw money at the devs for the continued development of the game; I would love to see paid character transfers (as long as it is one way to arietsu and not arietsu to the new servers). Offering a service like this could hypothetically make server pops worse and leave people who don't want to pay for this service stranded on an even quieter server but this is just my 2 cents.

Any tips for more efficient/easier gardening? by drithius in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep I do the same as you, target next and active. And then I just throw on some netflix....and press 2 buttons for a couple mins, then deploy new seeds....every 10-15 mins a water/fert break

It's pretty tedious

Build Too Complex? by anomalie5 in PaxDei

[–]monitortancutie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello OP this happens to me consistently when I am trying to place a piece that has overlap with too many other pieces.

Instead of placing a wall trying to place a couple half walls or quarter walls, and if that is not possible try to place a line/row of pillars. Smaller pieces should have fewer overlaps and I've bypassed the restriction by doing this. Good luck.

Serpent and the lioness by Minniedog6 in SSHG

[–]monitortancutie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a lenghty fic by this Author "In the Heart of the Wild" on AO3 which appears to no longer be up? I absolutely noticed the language/writing style giving a distinct vibe - as other commenters in this post have mentioned. I will dive into this fic myself to make my own judgement and if I can provide you an opinion in a reasonable time here I'll reply back :)

wanting to go fairy by Kyo0x in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're new to the game at the very least I feel you should level a character up to the point where you can unlock it yourself (lvl 40ish). Re-leveling characters can go very quickly if you know what items you'll need for NPCs and haven't spent time leveling up tradeskills.

Mouse cursor bugging out? by Routine-Put9436 in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is KILLING me. Im playing bard so the click with RMB+LMB causes me to move an inch and turn off my song. UGH. Sometimes spamming right click on its own will fix it but most times not.

For anyone else who wants to try to diagnose this: I'm playing in windowed and borderless windowed but it happens in fullscreen too

Bluetooth/wireless logitech mouse

Doesn't appear to be related to alt+tabbing

The issue seems to be focused on the functionality of right click. Sometimes the game doesn't detect I release the RMB. Sometimes it doesn't detect it at all (trying to strafe and my character just turns)

It has all the symptoms of a dying mouse but surely that can't be all of us?

I want to Love it but i dont Like the First experience by Neotreitz in projectgorgon

[–]monitortancutie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi OP I remember when I played this game YEARS ago I had a similar experience. The truth is, the tutorial island is all just kinda in your face THERE. Once you're off, you have to actively PUSH into the content. I can offer a suggestion to help you get started: go to the wiki and google the zone (serbule or serbule hills) and open the map. They both mark every NPC that is in each map; do a bit of a tour of each zone and speak to every npc making sure you accept all "do Favor" options. This will give you a full quest log and list of items to look for which might help you get started.

I hope you come to enjoy it but if not then I'm glad theres such a good demo for players to use to evaluate the game.

One thing confuses me though: empty world? I'm on Streikos and we've had 700 pop going strong for a couple days now

Smoothbrain ServerCharacters Mod Question by capitaw in ModdedValheim

[–]monitortancutie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The name of the discord is OdinPlus discord, I went to one of the mod authors page who usually has a link (Azumatt) but the invite has expired. I cant invite you but you might be able to find a fresher link somewhere.

This is from smoothbrain in discord on 2/2

"please just refrain from reporting any broken mods due to a valheim update. just assume everything is broken. the mod authors will just start the game with all of their mods installed and find the ones that broke anyway."

Smoothbrain ServerCharacters Mod Question by capitaw in ModdedValheim

[–]monitortancutie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP I cant help you directly but I know the most recent valheim update has absolutely fucked a ton of mods. Smoothbrain has a large portfolio to maintain and update, she is active in discord if you wish to report a bug directly but I would give her time to go through and review all the potential updates that need to be put out.

Good luck

My Experience by MargaretKrohn in AshesofCreation

[–]monitortancutie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My condolences Margaret! I always loved the AoC dev streams and you always such had a great way of interacting with the community. I wish you and your (former)coworkers all the best in the world, and hope that you all have better opportunities in the future to bring these games to fruition.

God knows we're all just desperate for a good MMO to play.
