  • @__Psycoder you have some solid ideas, but by making the bids more expensive the bigger the house, it perpetuates the problems we currently have, and prime spots will most likely eventually still go to the people you don’t want them to go to - they …
  • popps said: I think that the Design for gameplay should NOT tailored towards the hard core players but, rather, towards the casual players who usually cannot spend countless time at a game... That is at least how I see it. I think this event…

  • Cookie said: I see the phrase legitimate player so much. Is a legitimate player someone who pays for just 1 account, as I see so much, or is a legitimate player someone who pays for 5 accounts? The bias from the complainers is that it very mu…

  • Grimbeard said: Man we're ungrateful even if you only get it two runs that's 60 easy drops a day ... You can do one run a day and go through 10 ammo packs at the catapults and get nearly 30 drops (not counting rubble and void cubes).

  • It would be great if the event lasted a bit longer.  It's been a blast, even with reduced drops and no obelisk in sight.  I've gotten all of the rewards I wanted, and so I'm mainly playing for fun, but some players who have a more restricted playing…
  • keven2002 said: If you are looking for scorched rubble; that drops from the mobs/gates/chests in addition to stage 3. I'd guess that over half of mine came from those. Start hitting a few EQs or Thunderstorms when you are running to the next co…
  • I wonder if people realize you don't need a lot of players - the event scales up or down very nicely.  I've done some late-night runs with just 5-6 people and we've pulled it off without too much difficulty. The main thing is, starting out, only run…
  • creampie said: Nope you are totally wrong  No I'm not - nobody buys a house with the intent to sell it for less than they paid.  And if you're talking about gold sinks, if gold sinks worked, they would have put a lot more of them into the…
  • keven2002 said: Probably just going to chalk this up to the usual "RNG doesn't like me" and move along. The most I’m getting and have been getting since last month, with 1-3 runs a day, is void cubes,  I don’t know if that makes you feel…
  • Community Manager said: The team is still actively looking into this at this time. Thank you.  I had a rash of crashes last night relating to the commanders/boss mentioned, which was out of the ordinary (normally only one or two crashes in …
  • creampie said: not hey wont sell it higher than they paid and they are looking for gold sink best idea ever for it.  They will sell it for higher than they paid (it’s literally how they make money on it)  and they definitely won’t sell it …
  • username said:You really want people with tons of gold buying up every plot to resell at an even higher price? Nope. You can't have a bid system else we're back to square one where RMT is king. Entries should be a nominal fee or free. This. …
  • NikonUS said: Cost: Normal plots (18x18 or smaller): 500 million gold per ticket. or SOV's Keeps and Castles: 1 platinum (1P = 1 billion gold) per ticket. or SOV' So the goal is to cut out all but the wealthiest players and also…
  • Kyronix said:  An analysis of the house placement system following a house collapse is on our radar and any solution we implement will take the sentiments of these threads into consideration. For the love of Ultima, ditch the timer on th…
  • popps said: While 10+ per captain might perhaps be too much, 4 I think is way too little. They should make it like 6 per Commander, possibly 7 drops per Commander. So, if really some players were getting 15+ drops per Commander the fix was n…

  • ZyntharDraalVorlithia AnkhouHave all crashed me at least once in the past 5-6 days. Ankhou crashed me twice,  the solution is probably to turn off particle effects, but I sometimes rely on those to know when to run.
  • popps said: I mean, if this "fix" came with also a serious, working blocking of those players who script, bot and multibox then I could be OK with it... If it was about the multiboxers/scripters/bots we are all seeing, it should have wen…

  • __Psycoder said: Hmmmm, My understanding is that, they did not change the amount of drops you get from the captains. The captains should give 4 drops and now you get 4 drops. What they fixed was the bug that sometimes made captains give wrong…

  • username said: Play on a real shard like Atlantic and all the auto cheat bots auto attack them and kill them ALL before I can even get their bars.  You're welcome. See what I did there, dead shard players? I've seen dead shards, and LS is …
  • Pub 120 hot fixes tomorrow  Healers that spawn in the event area should no longer spawn as paragons and attack players.The Mawling adds from the Riftborn Monstrosity will now spawn with fewer hit points and resists, and spawn less often.
  • Pawain said: Sorry I was too sleepy to stay another 30 min for the wall to be ready. I was asleep by 12 and u posted at 1:40.   I'll bring one of my melee guys to kill the mawlings when I am on next and we draw him.  LS has mostly archers, …
  • When we run low on bombs or catapults/ammo on LS, we announce it in general chat and start getting messages from people who are on their way with whatever we need. I’d like to think many of us are donating the materials we get in our satchels as wel…
  • I have been impressed with the event scaling up or down depending on numbers of players involved. It’s always been challenging, always lots of deaths, but never felt insurmountable, whether it’s 10 players or 50.  It’s just always felt about right. …
  • Pawain said: We found this out on LS. If you have a small group of like 10 or less.  If 4 of the players start shooting Catapults, the spawn below is way too much for the players below.  We've had 8 gates going at once for 4 or five trying t…
  • ForeverFun said: There's a work-around to prevent the hang/crash at the catapult stage, in EC:User Settings -> Graphics -> Particle Filter -> None (then apply). You will no longer see the "Fire Columns" (or many other effects), and …
  • Riftborne Monstrosity is not one of the bosses of Mistas, it's the Mawlings that are the bosses of Mistas.
  • Fix the placement tool by getting rid of the delay/timeout function.  I get that it was an attempt to slow the botters/scripters down, but obviously it doesn't work and only hurts legitimate players.It irritates the heck out of those of us who are l…
  • Okay, even though Lake Superior keeps rocking the event several times a day with a lot of players, it feels like we are being punished for something we've done, because the Construct keeps turning up multiple times a day. I chuckled at the idea of …
