1. Martin did shout that part out, but i guess it wasnt loud enough, be patient, when the server is switched, it will come.
2. .....Right not selling, and things like that isnt needed (map maker and bigger map ??? things like that to come?), im sure if you have the right reason you may own a house.

as for the details, its top secret, its fun making one wait i guess he he he.

You may be able to buy a house, but it will undoubtedly be EXTREMELY expensive, so only groups or guilds may be able to afford it. (I am thinking upwards of 750 silver for a very basic house). As you probably noticed, there isn't alot of room on the map for expansion of the town. (The only place is to the west).

There is one thing that is almost certain that you asked; there will most certainly never be a level system, as it is one of the things that make Illarion unique. Here's a suggestion though; if you don't like uncertainty, this is not the game for you. Learning German would be in vain, since no details have been given out in any language or form.

What do you need to know so badly? The GM's don't know when they're getting a new server and the new client won't come out til then. They havn't released many details for house buying although it's believed it will be possible but very expensive. What do you mean sell to other players? You can already sell items to people. And as for it being built i suppose if you wanted the GM's to just put part of it in daily if the oppertunity ever came up to have buildings being built it might be possible but don't expect them to make new graphics of tools and half built walls and such just for you.

one THIS IS THE GAME FOR ME!!!, i jsut like to kow all
i heard tat there would be a new map once the GM's get a new map editor.

and i was hoping for no levels, well, just like diablo. i wanted levels like smoithing. when you get new items tyo smith, i wish those were more like, you have smithed X amount of this this and this, and now need to smith X amount of that and that to get the new items.

As you give it some time, you can learn more about the future of the game. The developers are not going to create a post which says "This is what you will find in the new version", you will have to look for it. I could find lots of info about it scattered around the boards.

while i'll admit i have occasionally wished for a more direct lvl system, the way illarion is now is far more RP and realistic then if it where just x number to lvl up and such...

Astral · Post by **Astral** » Sat Aug 10, 2002 7:11 am

Since it is the ultimate goal of the dev team to make it as realistic as possible, you will probably never see a level system. Just like you will never see a damage formula for the weapons. Most people do want this as a new player, but as you gain experience, you will see why it is better this way. I have been around for nearly a year straight, and I have learned most of these things from experience. So there's no way to tell if the person you're about to duel is much stronger than you. Realistic for the most part. It may seem nice to have a level system, but I could tell you many, many downsides to it.

ok, just think about it... dont we already have a lv system? takecarpentry for ex. the first lv u can only make a wooden sheild and a staff. i dont know the next lv because im not a carpenter, but then you get more things to carpenter. and wen you cast heal there are 2 lv you heal and wen that spell gets close to the the max strength, yo0u get the new lv/ability to be able to revive a dead person. so u see? we DO have levels, jsut not as direct as lv1 lv2, so on and so forth.

also, i heard that there are 3 new buildings in illarion, but i cant find them ne idea about how to get to them/ i would thinjk they r on there own island. i saw 5 starting points in the nort west area of teh map. and i know you can change the map without creating the new cleint. when the server crashed, stuff was deleated and tehn brougthback,. and tehre was a deposit box just past the demon hole that is no longer there.

and there is lots of space to build not only in the weslt, but also closer to the dessert, and were the skelotons are.

Who would want a house in the swamp or by the mummy ruins?

drag · Post by **drag** » Sat Aug 10, 2002 7:33 am

think of real like, the water is drained out and ppl are hired to get rid of teh skeletons.
and there is water right near teh dessert to bring in to teh local areas.

Drag, they keep it a secret until it is finally decided that is what they will due.

there is no point to get us all excited about something then say its not possible in that client and have us whinning to germany HQ HEHE.

and the houses near the mummys and skeleton, it cant be on the spawning spot nor can it block a entraince i believe....... so dont worry about it, im sure the map will someday expand larger and we can build our own ect.... and the river will be a river and not a stream he he he.

ok. i willstop asking about evertything and just one thing. when the GM get a map editor, will the map change totaly, or will it jsut get add ones, for he new cleint.(it must change, it is to small not to)

im gonna stop playing untill the new client comes out because the druid and the mage class will change so i dont really no witch i will want too be in the future so im gonna wait then i will probaly make new char.

Chyan Guo Messenger · Post by **Chyan Guo Messenger** » Sun Aug 11, 2002 4:06 pm

well, do what you wish, but i dont think it will change much, druids use herbs, flowers for potions, and mages will still learn runes for magic.
