Hello!!! How have things been going for everyone here? I assume you're going to be playing MO?
BRANDON OMG I'VE BEEN SEARCHING HIGH AND LOW FOR YOU!
How are you?
Yeah we are planning on playing MO but we also play a few other games here and there. For example a few of us have started playing Mount and Blade: Warband, some still play Civilization 4 etc.
I heard you quit gaming?
Anyway it's still nice to hear from you :D
Ah yes it's Brandon!
You dropped off the radar a while ago but I'm glad to see you again.
Good to hear you are alive and well Brandon! :)
=D you're all alive! Elagost, I've been searching for you too along with the pink squad, have you seen/heard from them recently? And yes I've quit gaming for a while now but after my exams will most certainly kick back into action. <<< probably why I dropped off the radar Zehtuka. The Duchy is still strong then? How have things been going for you lot?
Hmm I have forgotten who were members of Pink Squad now. Care to jumpstart my memory? :o
Was mainly Tayend and me lol, Az liked to pretend he was a member every now and then lol. So what's with this MO game? I know quiet a few of you were following it a while ago but is it shaping up good?
Oh yes I remember Tayend. He was awesome :)
It's looking alright to be honest with you. Needs a lot of work but they are apparently working non-stop on sorting out the servers and adding new content here and there.
lol full frontal nudity, is tht nessescary? Tho the combat and the world look very immersive after watching several videos =)
Brandon! :) Welcome back!
hai cyndane ! is anyone here in beta?
Most of us are inactive till launch.
Keldain and I go for scouting treks sometimes though.
Cool, was just hoping they'd be some good details on the game by now :P But nvm =(
hey Brandon, good to see you again :)
Thanks Duncan :) is there a NDA on the beta at the moment? I'd love to get some feedback about it :o
Nope NDA was lifted. I think the beta forums are open to all now. Not sure.
It's open beta now, why don't you just try it out?Quote:

Hi Brandon. MO would be a lot more fun if combat was like 1.5 times as fast and it didn't desync all the time. It is more grindtastic than darkfall and I hope they change that. I would like to play it but in its current state I am going to stick with Darkfall, HoN, and Warband.
I guess it needs more work then xD Atleast there won't be a shiny new game to distract me from revision on an up side... Do you think they'll manage to fix the game up before summer this year? Or is that too amibtious :sQuote:

Well the patches will be done in 1hour :P So I can't wait to see it's current state, is the desync still very bad? And can I get magic :P ? I'm aware many features are not currently implimented or something along those lines.Quote:

Do we now? :o Explain :P
MO isn't anywhere near DF when it comes to the time it takes to grind up skillsQuote:

And the whole game is way too slow, too realistic. It just isn't my game, just sharing my opinion, don't cut my head off.Quote:

I believe you could raise a weapon skill to max in MO with no more than 15 hours of grinding.Quote:

I'm in MO now and I feel completely lost, I don't even know where the mobs are lol
Welcome to Mortal heh. Feeling lost is an essential part of the game.Quote:

Toxai or something like that, was it a bad idea to choose a high phyce and int character? :sQuote:

also whts a good place to start, I saw a major lack of people in Toxai xD
Yeh. Meduli is the main trade hub, laggy as hell and full of thieves that will clean your pockets before you can say desync.Quote:

Cool, it just crashed but I can't gather lol there simply isn't the skill in my technique bar :s
it should be somewhere down in your skill tree if you press L. Think it's technique>gathering>woodcutting. Inside there's an icon for the skill that you can drag to the bar. You might have to re-log for it to appear.
If you learn riding or choose a background that starts with the skill I could get you a pony.
I'll try it tomorrow :) apprently the Medai *spelling?* has issues some times, just need to find my bearings and I'll be off on some epic wood gathering journey.Quote:

That is a big plus about MO, the new game feeling, that is a big thing I miss in Darkfall. The problem with MMOs is that eventually you get to the point where you know where everything is and you understand how to level your character the most efficient way based on what you want to do. Then the game gets a little bit stale. MO seems like it will take awhile to discover a lot of it, which is a huge upside.Quote:

The game lacks some guidence I'd say, would be nice to get a kick in the right direction.Quote:
