#890273 Halloween's Coming...

Posted by Irradiated on 19 September 2014 - 19:18

At least for Halloween we should change the name to pancreas.  I love it :)  (My brain also translated the name to Pancreas, but I did a wtf double take.)

 

Now for extra credit, who knows what a pancreas is for?

 

Back on topic, love the ideas so far.  I understand it's a real long shot HCS has time for any of this suggestion, much less both parts.  Putting it out there anyway.  Maybe next year?

 

How about a daily Trick or Treat at the various shops?  They may give you a special treat (a component for Chel's idea above possibly), otherwise just some do-nothing candy (no dentists in EC).  Visiting all shops on the list completes the daily.

 

Or the shop may play a trick (I know that's reverse, but let's have some fun).

 

Some ideas for tricks:

* Invisible clothes for 1 hour (except Ern, who will be forced to show his armor for 1 hour)

* Teleport to a random location in whatever city you're in

* Hiccups for 10 minutes

* Shrink to Diminutive City size for 1 hour (cancelled if you join PvP) (or just a shrunken head)

* Dance for the next hour whenever you stop moving

I do hope we have time to get onto something decent for Halloween, we just need to get things sorted for the Steam launch first.

 

Halloween is more fun than Christmas, I wish it was as big a holiday here as it is in the US :D

 

Also, awesome picture :D hehe




#889673 5 Minute Cooldown on Resurrection

Posted by lester on 14 September 2014 - 22:13

I would like future updates to be something like this.

Example:

-We increased Mages boiling blood by 20 %

  -We felt that it needed a bit more damage, etc.

I think that if the devs would stop being silent on this matter and tell us what their intention is, we could provide so much more feedback on how to improve whatever issue they had when they decided to make this change.

 

Right now, many players are frustrated over this issue and they have no outlet simply because they do not know what the problem is, so they are viewing the devs in a negative light. Simply increasing the cooldown, without telling us why, is not a good idea at all.

In ta you could keep reviving someone and then kill gaining easy kill which was kinda of exploit.

How many freaking things gotta get nerfed because of stupid PVP about which 80% of normal people don't care ?




#889397 Confirm for BP sorting

Posted by PhurieDae on 12 September 2014 - 17:41

I've discussed this with Cygnus and our preferred idea at the moment is to move the Sort & Stack buttons out of the window header entirely - put them in the main window and make them nice and clear and large so they won't be clicked on by accident at all.

 

We might not get it done by the Steam release but we will work on a fix for this soon after (we are really, really, REALLY busy right now!) as we know how often it's come up recently. We'll talk it over more on Monday!




#889276 Confirm for BP sorting

Posted by ZeusIV on 11 September 2014 - 23:53

I suggested in another thread about this damn button that they just make it a menu like other simple menus

the menu options could be 

Sort

Cancel

 

then later they could add

Sort Ascending

Sort Descending

Sacks at top

Sacks at bottom

 

but did they listen...

 

from a programming pov it would be really easy to do.




#889250 Confirm for BP sorting

This needs bumped.

 

Auto sort strikes again.

 

Seriously, remove this crap please, or at least give us a way to flat out disable it for those of us who NEVER want to use it.

 

Nothing but annoying.

 

I'd personally rate this as far more important than their graphic updates or class balancing.




#888260 2 Minute Potion Cool Down...

Posted by Irradiated on 03 September 2014 - 15:26

Only speaking for ranger.  I have two rotations, both designed so my mana lasts about two minutes.  If the prophet is casting a lot of snowfalls, then I switch to my higher DPS rotation.  If not, I use my more conservative rotation.  Either way I pop a stamina (better then mana, as I can use over the 15seconds and not lose the extra mana) every two minutes.

 

So yes, without Snowfall my DPS is hurt.  It also leaves me with no emergency heal.  The first I can accept as mana management.  But I really like the suggestions above for a separate CD so I could still heal myself in an emergency.




#887222 Confirm for BP sorting

Good luck this time!  Not sure why HCS keeps putting this off, difficult to believe a confirmation is that complex.  People have been suggesting something be done since I joined beta well over a year ago.

 

I understand that some people use it and so it must remain.  But I've learned to fear that button.  So come on, HCS, a confirmation?  Move the button?  Or if nothing else, at least make the buttons larger.




#887030 Confirm for BP sorting

Alternatively please move the sort button to the left!!!  B)




#887032 Confirm for BP sorting

Posted by Wickedry on 23 August 2014 - 00:35

Or flat out remove it, I've seen it in so many games and have never once intended to click it...always happens though, because the evil thing is always right next to the close inventory button. :wacko:

 

An option to disable it would be nice too though, I'm sure there are some people out there who actually intend to click it when it happens....there has to be at least one of them, right?




#885727 Tornado...

Posted by Irradiated on 15 August 2014 - 18:55

Overall I love this release, and thank you for it HCS.  Keep up the great work.  That said, going to add my bit regarding Tornado.

 

I did find one useless use for it.  It makes a good opener when targeting a single mob that is not moving.  Not, if I may understate, the most common situation.

 

Even if Tornado worked, I don't see how it works in PvP.  If I were a warrior or assassin, can't think of much I'd like better then seeing that animation start, the ranger tied to one spot for 3 seconds.

 

The easiest fix would either have it drop down into a reasonably sized circle, similar to Monsoon, or just increase the radius of the circle (still hitting all targets in path, with a much wider line).  Either make it useful as a party AOE when other AOE is on CD.  Other possibilities make it more useful for PvP or solo, or just more unique, but I'm not clear on what was intended with this spell.

 

One other tiny point.  Could we get a better animation?  Most tornadoes are exciting, did you have to pick one that looks like a dust devil?  They don't even have to be grey.  The color is based on the lighting/sun position/debris picked up/moisture in the air.  Realizing that having situational animation is beyond any reasonable scope (cool idea, but not now), here are some suggestions:
