I completely agree, which is exactly why this thread needs to be stickied. Traceur's always updating it, and it picks up a lot of info that most people would miss upon first coming to the forums... things that devs say in out of the way threads.

Denny Lindberg · 3rd July 2008, 08:11

It's stickied for now.

Traceur · 4th July 2008, 14:43

hey, sticky, when did this happen? Ghandi... that would explain a lot... i thought i was just getting the munchies.

anyway, Landor i added a link to your thread in the OP by the side of "the world".

Landor · 4th July 2008, 16:49

Thanks, now when I'm gone for the month and the new info comes out I don't have to go searching for it.

stygiant · 4th July 2008, 22:38

sweet summery - thanks for putting it together.

You're welcome, traceur

Traceur · 5th July 2008, 03:32

your responsible to the sticky? thanks

+1 rep because now i don't need that link in my signature

Thalras Naeblis · 5th July 2008, 07:10

Great summary!

Traceur · 5th July 2008, 15:18

I've updated the summary with a lot info from the posts by Mats Persson, including religion, influences & some additional tidbits scattered around. that being said, i had to be selective, since many of them are contributions to discussions, general personal take on things, opinions, song preferences, etc', which could either be too easily taken out of context, or do not necessarily reveal specific information.

Mpträ · 5th July 2008, 15:25

You should put in a disclaimer just in case (that some of the information might not come in the complete game etc, etc...) =)

Traceur · 5th July 2008, 15:47

disclaimer added.

Baelzar · 10th July 2008, 12:32

I think it took me longer to read through this than you said it took you to write it. Lot of information there I hadn't seen elsewhere around the site. Thank you very much for putting it all together.

there will be pickpocket-able mounts. You could argue that there are spells/scrolls you can tweak to get a similar effect (i.e. Raise Steed), but for that to work you'll need a dead horse or such. But that's more of a special case.

This can be kind of confusing. I don't know where the original post is, but I found this one:

Q: Will there be pocketable mounts?
A: Hmm, I'm not sure about the English here. If you mean pick-pocketable mounts, then yes.
Otherwise no.
You could argue that there are spells/scrolls you can tweak to get a similar effect (i.e. Raise Steed), but for that to work you'll need a dead horse or such (perhaps an eaten one?). But that's more of a special case.

Obviously I must have been tired when writing this. The mounts will be "pick-pocketable" (is that a word?), meaning you can steal from their saddlebags and such. The mounts won't be "pocketable", i.e. you can't put your mounts in your pocket.
But, there might be special cases, like in the example above.

Hope this makes sense.

That's what I understood the first time. ^^

Traceur · 16th July 2008, 01:51

clarifications are always welcomed, and thanks for going over it

i also added the recent clarification on the individual secondary skill caps (100/100).

p.s.

Will you be able to pickpocket a mount?
The mounts will be vulnerable to pick-pocketing, meaning you can steal from their saddlebags and such.

Will you be able to summon mounts?
The mounts won't be "pocketable", i.e. you can't put your mounts in your pocket. You could argue that there are spells/scrolls you can tweak to get a similar effect (i.e. Raise Steed), but for that to work you'll need a dead horse or such. But that's more of a special case.

better?

It's wicked to see that the Devs are being so active in the community, and answering questions specifically posted by us - thumbs up from me.

It's also great to see that there's a fair bit of influence coming from the "golden days" of UO. That's what I've been missing in MMO's since those times.

Exciting stuff. I can hardly wait

1reaver1 · 24th July 2008, 12:15

I gotta say it. i of course haven't seen the game but just reading the responses to questions: "OH my GOD. The level of detail they have tought about even beyond other MMO's that have matured for years is amazing."

NICE WORK!!!!! This is insanely interesting. looks like you could play for a long time and still be discovering different aspects you have always had access to much never taken advantge of or explored.

This is going to make a nice LONG TERM game.

rick · 28th August 2008, 19:42

this could probably use an update with the new info...

Somarl · 5th September 2008, 01:25

Just give me the ability to own a massive mage tower on top of a mountain, you can leave the rest out ill be fine.

Seriously though, some of the stuff mentioned is very tempting sounding. I am quietly anticipating this. Its about time people started making more dynamic total freedom style mmo's, we dont have enough. Eventually i will be able to quit work and life and play full time in one, oblivious to the outside world and all its chaos, woot!
