Stuff - Hey, how bout some stuff

Silent Brodi · Post by **Silent Brodi** » Sat Jan 26, 2002 1:04 am

Don't get me wrong.. I love Illarion, and i know its in alpha stage or whatever. But how about some stuff. The world is drastically low on buildings and i think that homelessness must be a big problem. We have two options, kill all the homeless (IE everyone) or build more villages. I got really freaked out when i browsed through illarion websites looking at maps with tons of different villages and found that there was only one village. Just a bit of stuff from my head. Yeah my brain...

At the moment, we have

a) Building stop, because the actual server cannot use the map editor yet. Next version will be better with that. At the moment, only things without roof can be built.

b) Two BUSY programmers. Both are doing their final exams in study, don't expect many big changes before april.

c) had a thread like this here very often before. I suppose it can be closed though =)

@dyl : Yes, hread. Dang i produced a typo

) now it's corrected.

Hi,

Illarion is cool compared to other games i've found, because of the graphics ( they are suprisingly good) and because of magic and skills etc, but don't you ever find that everyone has the best equipment .. everyone has a firesword these days, or the best armour. Don't get me wrong, i enjoy being powerful, but it's just a bit unrealistic - you can't really sell things for expensive prices because nobody wants them .... and some things are really hard, for example, carpentery. I used to be a carpenter in an old Character ( Zurok ) and i spent many days in the forrests gathering wood, making arrows etc, and i found that i was only on the 3rd level of carpentry ( after all that time and effort ), so i gave up. And what is with the mining, for me there always seems to be more coal that iron - the other day i had 112 coal, 49 iron!!

Anyway, just thought i would express my opinion, so keep up the good work, i'll be looking forward to the future!!

Dimitri

hehe, the coal and iron thing is RANDOMIZED. I myself tend to find more ore than coal. Sometimes i threw away hundreds of ore...

one great thing about illarion is that there is no experience points , lvls and stuff..
cause in illarion you dont have to kill any monsters in your whole life , if you choose so..
you dont have to be strong figther to be rich. actually , the only figthers are the poorest people in illarion

i tend to mine equal numbers at the time like 56/56 , cause thats easy when smithing longaxes or something else..

I guess damien doesn't have much muscle hehe but caranthir is a dwarf, I guess they must make better miners...

I can carry about 45 of each... but i think Caranthir wins the prize for the best back!

Dyluck · Post by **Dyluck** » Sat Jan 26, 2002 3:21 am

Hehe don't be too impressed yet. I'm sure Caranthir can still carry more than 56 of each.

People,that's what I am trying to say the whole time!STOP THROWING AROUND YOUR SMITHED STUFF!!!
I mean,I made the price for one part of the knight equipment 100 gold higher,that means it's 300 gold!but,the people don't even pay 50 gold!300gold is much to low,good equipment should be something to reach,a goal!I haven't had the best equipment till I could smith it!This isn't good and I am willing to smith more and more!you can make money with smithing at the NPC,but you get poor at the others!you know what I mean?

Caranthir the great · Sat Jan 26, 2002 12:24 pm

i carry those 56/56 with my full battle gear and 30+ strong healingpotions with me.
allways , never EVER i have under 30 stronghealing potions with me..
and btw coal weigths actually nothing , its iron that weigths much..

Yeah sorry Torekin - i guess i'm one of those people who throw away my battle axes after i've smithed them, it's because i can't be bothered carrying them all the way to the shop, or depot because all i want to do is just get to the max level for smithing ( nearly there !! ) - but i do find that about 3 people gather around and collect my axes, so i'm glad that i make some people rich

its not really soo fun being a newbie because you get stuff from evryone so the feling in the game is going down thanks too people throw out items evrywhere:sad:

Torekin · Post by **Torekin** » Sat Jan 26, 2002 5:04 pm

Hey Dimitri,I collected your axes because you threw them around!I told you not to do this and be happy that I haven't killed you!I hate the people who ruin the prices!every item is worth more than you get at the NPC!I say it again:STOP THIS MADNESS!YOU RUIN ALL THE BUSYNESS OF THE HARDWORKING PEOPLE!what don't you understand?and,you should work for other tings like raising max smithing!I mean,I just mined befoe I started to smith!I made my money with goldnuggets and gems!and I am now "master smith" and go on doing this!there is a lot more things like raising skils in illarion!and many people haven't seen this!this is really sad!I mean,do you see people walking around the town and giving you guns or something?I think not!so try to be a bit realistic and stop only skillgaming!
