Please tell me the guild is gonna play

[Jaice]

Sweet Jesus the forums have been heating up over at MO the closer it gets to launch. People are taking sides, flexing their E-peen and pissing of carebears left and right.

So tell me o wise ones, is there enough interest in this game from the guild to own this?

All I gotta say is, wait till they fix the auto-aim magic, and I am going to be GODLY STATUS. Magic blows right now cuz you have to tab to target, and tab never picks up until after ive zoomed by someone full-speed on muh horse. When they make the magic manually aimed, I hear the crying....I tell you I hear the crying in my dreams. FLocks of carebears cursing my name on the forums as they were killed by someone with a dagger and heavy robes with the name of "Gayzown Acceptit".:rofl:

PS: I think I got so excited in writing this thread I jizzed a lil. Xcuse me while I go clean up. :yank:

[Jaice]

Troll me in this thread will you.

Magic right now is bullshit and overpowered but it's not overpowered cause you don't have to be in combatstance. it's overpowered because it hits it's target no matter what and that's bullshit.

magic has to be like it is in oblivion.
if you cut the casting time and manacost of offensive spells in half and increase the missile speed a bit then it's all good. god forbid you actually have to aim to hit something.

A few questions to throw your way.

1) First, have you tried using only magic in combat or magic at all? (I have it maxed, as I don't plan to be a melee character at all, im practicing using magic as much as possible.....mage/crafter)

2) Have you ever tried running at someone full-speed on a horse and trying desperately to tab them so you can target them, only for the tab not to pick up the target and you rush right by them. It would be EASIER TO JUST AIM AT THEM AND CLICK than with the current system. All this auto-target talk is bullshit, the auto-target system in and of itself is bollocks. I have to practically be IN SOMEONE'S FACE to get them to show up target.

3) Magic is easily avoidable due to Line of Sight, I got owned by this guy who hid behind some horses lulz.

4) During launch, do you honestly believe you are going to see plate wearing mages/healers running all over the place with 100str/100con with 100 in swords/mounted combat/riding skill, come on people.

Stop whining and L2P. IF you are getting killed by someone using ONLY magic, chances are....you aren't using the terrain to your benefit. I would have killed SSOOOOO many more people if I could just aim my DoT which does like 15 damage over a few seconds, then fulmination for 25, and thunderbolt at long range....you wanna talk about getting owned before??? Lulz.

I look forward to the day of meeting some of you in combat while im wearing heavy robes and tearing your horses out from under you when they allow us to AIM our spells.. If my target is riding a horse, I cannot target his horse with tab to kill it like, I dunno say the MELEE and ARCHERS can just aim for the horse. I only get to hit the person.

Magic is pretty over powerd at the moment cause of tab targeting. The last guy i fought just kept running away and because i have to use stamina to swing and he doesn't to cast spells I ultimately had no way to get close enough to hit him. It wouldn't have been so bad if I could have dodged him or even ran away but I couldn't because of the targeting.

[Jaice]

Hide behind trees mate, block his line of sight. Make him come to you, and then bash him, and attack his horse while he is down. Zownt. Auto targetting HURTS the mages right now. IF ya cant target them, you cant hit them. If im chasing someone and I'm JUST outside the tab zone to lock onto him, I Cant cast a spell on him. Thats retarded. He is right in front of me, I should be able to just zap em.

He would have just stood there until I came out. We weren't mounted.

Seeing that most people use melee then having to be close enough to target someone isn't that annoying unless they are running away from you. Makes horses hard but horses wreck everyones shit anyway. It will definitely be more fun when you have to aim them for both parties though.

[Surly]

know when launch is? we'll probably play it as a clan, but if it launches too early we'll likely wait a while.

We'll probably wait for awhile, seeing how it is now. That's what I think at least.

That said, I've seen tons of things which aren't in the game yet, both from office videos and looking in the MO folder. I guess we'll see when the game actually launches.

Also: thieving is fucking horrible right now. I can just stand and steal fucking everything every guy has at the bank and bank it before anyone can do anything about it. I hope they'll fix this.

Yeah, this if for no other reason that we got burnt hard on niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger.

Only going by the way that people that play DF now say, I guess if it had started it now instead of at launch, we may have had more fun, but I seriously doubt it.

If Mortal goes the same way as niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger, than at least mortal has a lot more room to grow and a fuck ton better development team.

[Kietharr]

At the moment it's hard to tell you if we'll be playing yet because frankly at the moment it's not a game. If it launched as is I'd give a resounding fuck no, but it could easily be a good game with more content and a fully fleshed out combat system, also lag reduction would be glorious.

[niccoli]

*sigh*

Based on where Magic is currently, I sure hope they admit that it's fucked up.

Auto targeting is fucking retarded, especially when archers/melee don't use it.

Magic is fucked up overpowered for the same reason it's a problem, auto targeting.

Hope they do something to improve/fix it.

Seems to me like two things should be done:

Get rid of the need for tab-target and change the system to work like archery's aiming.
Make the use of spells draining on Stamina AND Mana, or add to cast time if your stamina isn't full (aka out of breath from sprinting around kiting people).

[Red Morgan]

Magic always fucks everything up... I hate it with a passion. Hrmmm.. do I want to play a dude who can swing a sword hard or do I want to play a guy with god-like super powers who can defy the very laws of nature... HRMMMM TOUGH CHOICE!

There is always the issue of balance, too. Than again that gives birth to a those guys that swing swords really hard while at the same time move really fast to cleave their enemies in two a score at a time with a flaming frozen electric holy halberd of the apocalypse.

Ummm, all i really hear in this thread from others is "Jaice owns us all, just bow down to his magic prowess". Like I said, if ya haven't played with magic in the game, you wouldn't understand how the current system hurts the good players and makes the shitty players look even worse. I look forward to owning you all in the future. I plan to make this my full time game whether Anvil plays or not. There is alot people are missing out on if they are just casually playing the game.

I listened to you guys thinking niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger was gonna own and its the worst 50$ i've ever spent in my life. I just can't understand why you guys can't see you were obviously duped with niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger and with my over-abundance of cash i had it was no more than a time sink for me. You actually have a real sand-box MMO staring at you in the face needing no more than faithful subs to make it the most successful sandbox since UO and not enough people believe in it because you fell into the Greek trap. Blame the negros I say, history does tend to repeat.

Edit:Keep in mind, the Euro rate is shit right now.

you suck dicks for a hobby, i cant believe niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger was that bad for you

Also, I'm drunk and I don't really give a shit about you think of the game. I own all nubs and that's really all that needs to be said. Other than whiteys suck at sports and niggerniggerniggerniggerniggers are actually the superior race but Hitler had no idea of what he was up against.

I do suck dicks for a hobby, and a successful hobby at that. Get on my level and I perhaps I can explain to you what its like to be not only successful, sexy and A 5-star bitch. But I have an over-flowing income, sexy men buying me shinies, and bitches to fuck on a daily basis. Troll that niggerniggerniggerniggerniggers.:fuck you:

[Kran De Loy]

I don't believe you. :dwarf:

niggerniggerniggerniggernigger people lie, it's all they know how to do.

[Kran De Loy]

But seriously, I'm with you about Mortal Online, just I'm a very realistic person normally and this is a guild that in all practicality has at one of it's core precepts is cynicism.

[Uzik]

I will play. Currently the patcher doesn't work for me, but once it does I will be playing.

[niccoli]

I will be playing more closer to release or post release. I just don't want to put a lot of effort into something that will be wiped come release.

Magic sucks balls as it is because of the need to target, and if they don't get rid of the need for targeting for hostile spells, meaning if they don't make it FPS style it will continue to suck balls.

Other than that, I think the game has plenty of potential.

[Kran De Loy]

You happen to try to just retorrent the the base files? I know even after that one must still run the patcher, but the base files can sometimes be what is needed.

Scratch all that.

I just got the client again, since last time I did was the second week after they launched the start of Beta..

Anyway, I've tried to launch the program about 4 times so far and the updater keeps hitting some sort of problem that freezes it up.. that the same for you Uzik?

Edit: I'm going to try the torrent version now, instead of the direct dl.

Last patch apparently had a problem like this as well. It fixes itself after some minutes apparently, just wait for awhile.

[Molly Hatchet]

HI all,
I have been dling the client periodically to see what is going on.

I tried one after mounts and housing went in and found it to be pretty dull. Imagine this, everyone was hitting rocks and trees. SHit, I had to alt-tab to make sure I hadn't clicked the niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger exe.

Oh well, maybe I will give it a go and suck at yet another game.

That is the problem I have as well

[Kale]

well i've already preordered so definitely playing. hopefully even if the clan isn't there in full glory a few of us can still make a placeholder guild until later or something.

This. Tho, I'm going to wait till the next patch it available before I try again, just to be sure. That and I'm still trying to relearn the controls. Fuck I swear, the older I get the stupider I become.

Yes, well, that's the problem with a game that forces you to craft most if not all of everything you use in a way that as of several weeks ago may have significant changes on how the item works bases on what it's made out of thus making room for the minigame they plan on having for the crafting, but they say wont be available till after launch since the guys that are supposed to be working on the mini game are busy having to help with a lot of other shit atm.

Yeah, the same.

[Jaice]

Well for those that do play, I look forward to seeing you guys in game. I'm getting lonely by myself killing reds. =(

[Atnas]

I will, if that counts!

[Saitam]

If the game is fun at launch you'll see me in the game for sure

[Kran De Loy]

The problem is, 'at launch.'
Since niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger fucked up so extremely hard, MMO's are going to be under more pressure to launch successfully or at least close to successfully as possible, especially Mortal.

Unfortunately there aren't any other games that have come out between niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger and Mortal that have brought the normal state of mind back to the gaming community and our niche specifically. So what once was accepted in bad launches will now be deemed utter failure because of how close the two games are in their market and their development times.

I seriously hope the investors and devs for Mortal realize this..

[Omley Boozebeard]

Mortal will launch early and unfinished and most the fags on this forum will declare it another niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger fail because they are unable to tell the difference between an unfinished game thats shit and just an unfinished game thats good.

And we wont be the only ones either and if there are not enough people to buy the game than it will die. Like I said I seriously hope that the Mortal investors and developers realize they have even more pressure than normal to release a farther well rounded game.

[LordTenacious]

In both cases it is unfinished and therefore shit.

[Kran De Loy]

In both cases it is unfinished and therefore shit.
Yes, but the gamer population are proven over and again that it will eat shit for games to be released early, or that's the general idea that's been floating around for a long time.

i'm 99% sure niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerers said the same thing in correlation to another game.

[Omley Boozebeard]

Mortal has good foundations, most people agree to that.

niggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggerniggernigger has broken foundations and thats why it will never get properly fixed, most people agree with this.

Hence i fail to see why people still insist on comparing the two. If anything they are total opposites.

I personally think mortal will be real fun too but I still think it's perfectly acceptable to be skeptical as hell just as other people are... I mean.. why not?
