  1. I feel the beauty of Almaris has been overshadowed by the Vortex release, so I just wanna shoutout the world builders/painters. Ya'll did an AMAZING job.

      map too big sadly. Parts of it are totally great but most folks will just pass right by it because it's no different from any other portion of their ten minute walk to the nation capital

  2. The biggest lie of Vortex was calling it a professions plugin. There's nothing about this that makes you a professional. No levels, exp, or skill. Just obtain the highest level tools and you're now a master of your craft. 😕

      I won't lie, the only excitement I felt for this system was to have a leaderboard for level and craft fame. Without that there isn't much point to me having any interest in it. If it's just linear there's no fun, I would personally rather have vanilla. However, I think we should give it a chance, a week or a month, and then start discussing what we like and dislike about it. First day impressions are always the roughest with something new. 

  3. Can we talk about the negative interest on bank accounts real quick? Why force your players to participate in this complex crafting and professions system and then punish them for earning minas? I... I don't even know where to begin.

      Yeah of course @NotEvilAtAll but be advised I'm mostly speaking from the perspective of economy, I can't talk much on the dev side of things outside of what I've seen. SO, currently the economy team plans to control and manipulate the flow of mina via one large pool that bleeds out into various different outputs. So the main one on launch will be voting like I said, so we can see how much mina has been given out, what's in the players hands and whether or not we should give more minas out to stimulate things or if we need to reduce amounts if the pool gets low. But stuff like the bank tax and things like the CT shops will bring mina back into that pool to ensure there is mina in it for voting and that stuff to continue without us just infinitely spawning mina and trying to counteract it via mina sinks, this way the mina sinks circulate into usable mina again without us spawning more. We can of course increase and manage the amounts of both voting and the overall pool as time goes on, but it's just that we're trying to keep a much closer eye on the economy so we don't continue to get to the end of every map and mina is useless and everyone has tens of thousands of it at least with no use for it. We want mina to be valuable and useful along with having valued resources that you want to spend your mina on (Vortex).

      Alright. Just remember to avoid deflation in regards to purchasing power as the supply of resources goes up and up and there's not enough demand to buy it all, as has been seen on every map, crafting system or no crafting system.

       

      I think it'd be best to slowly increase the pool of minas as needed, otherwise the ratio of minas to resources is constantly falling lower and lower.

      @ShannonLeigh Looks like I was wrong and they are keeping a 5% maintenance fee according to Hiebe on the LoTC discord. Wonder how often that fee is applied. 

  4. How to completely break a microecomony in 3 easy steps:
    1. Extremely overcomplicate the crafting system to the point where you can't figure out the most basic steps without a guide
    2. Invent numerous ways to drain money out of the economy (see: gold sinks)
    3. Leave little to no way to insert new money into the economy

    Tadah! You've broken your microeconomy.

      Some of the plugin stuff intended to launch at the start of 8.0 ain’t finished yet.

       

      I doubt we’ll have an October release unless development goes really smoothly.

  8. gang gang or whatever

  9. Lol they hid my statuses. Pedophilia is historically a problem on this server and the minors who are part of our community deserve to know that so that they can protect themselves and avoid becoming victims

      Very well said, Crevel.

      This server should be shutdown for how many pedophiles we have had. This is the sole reason they do not want you to talk about it.

    4. Kvasir

      Kvasir

      There is constant mention of LOTC having pedophiles and little to no actual reports. We ask that instead of talking about how there are pedophiles, you report the people who you know are. How can staff be ‘protecting’ someone when they have no idea who you’re referencing?”

       

      Imagine thinking this, lol, you’re a mod, you’re not important enough or allowed to get pedophelia reports reported to you. Pedophelia has been historically covered up which is not up for debate. You can submit a pedophelia report, it will take months to be even responded to MEANINGFULLY. Covering it up is above your paygrade. @devvy

      dont get me wrong, I don’t hate the game and I accept that it’s really popular for a reason but it’s a formula that’s been done a million times. It’s literally just garrys mod murder, or murder mystery, or whatever else has done it before. I just personally don’t see the appeal that has hundreds of thousands of people playing it lmao

      that’s kinda sus voting you next meeting

      I think the most interesting factor is the voting. I mean I expect more innovation than that for me to play a game but, I have to admit that it does give people stuff to do besides yell at or shoot each other like in gmod TTT. The added mechanics seem to bring a little depth, actual plotting can happen while civs are busy instead of just sitting around until a murder. You also have a lot more to talk about in terms of your alibi. Minigames seem kinda fun.

      Wasn’t there also the time that a disgruntled Undead player fireball’d Dawn’s Bakery? I remember Dalek348 showing me a video of that.

      Video doesn’t work anymore, sadly. But this used to be the link.

      Honestly, graphic novels are considered pretty good, they’ve got good reviews and it can be weirdly emotional and nostalgic.
