General Discussion / Last Wipe ETA?
« on: October 19, 2014, 02:14:43 am »
Unless I'm misinformed, there's suppose to be a big wipe (which is also the final major wipe) before launch. I have some questions about it.

Will this final wipe only occur when version 1.0 is released, or might it come earlier? I am asking because I have decided to wait until the last wipe before playing long-term again so the time and characters do not go to waste. However, if this final wipe is still a long while from now (if it will happen at all), I might just return to the game early since 1.0 may be years away.

Thanks in advance for any information.

Complaint Department / Simplify Attribute Caps!
« on: July 28, 2012, 09:21:55 pm »
One of the last times I played Planeshift, I read that the cap for Attributes was raised from a nice and simple 100 to an irritating 300 or so (this number could have been changed since I last played).

Why such a large number? First of all, people were already able to farm Ubernauts, and they were actually provided them with a buff? Uncalled for, attributes were fine as it is. If players are going to be so powerful, then there will also be no motivation for them to work together.

Secondly, the cap for Attributes in most RPG's has always been a nice 100, only buffs ever pushing it further. If the developers believe 100 is really not enough, then at least make attributes more powerful and more expensive rather than lazily increasing it by a few hundred. I and other players don't want to travel across the world numerous times searching for trainers, paying untold hundreds of thousands of tria we grinded for, just to max our attributes. Please leave such tedious things for the Korean MMO's.

I don't know what the limit for skills are, but I hope they are all 100, or else there is no balance. Some skills wouls be longer to train than others! And again...the number differentiation just gives me an OCD attack.

And personally, I believe attributes should be increased by performing tasks, rather than paying a trainer (or maybe even both)...but that's a suggestion for another time.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

Complaint Department / Why do I need to quest to do anything?
« on: July 28, 2012, 08:52:26 pm »
I first played this game many years ago, and have watched it progress over a very long time. I've been starting to notice a re-occurring issue, "We've added x to the game! You must complete a new quest to use it."

Why? Why do I need to do some long quest in order to use something all players should have access to? If you keep this up the game will be too restrictive, in fact it already is, and will deter new players. The point of an RPG is you can develop your character to be anything you want from the start, it should be open and free, but this route is going in the opposite direction. If you don't want players to become too powerful too fast, then just add a cap to how many skills you can learn at once and get rid of these quests. I and other players don't want to go through them. No other game does this for a reason.

Anyone else feel the same way? It's practically the reason I have stopped playing.

EDIT: The thread "Winch access... The Never Ending Frustration" is a good example of others who dislike having to quest. It should be optional.

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Physical Stamina Automatically Dropping
« on: February 05, 2008, 09:21:12 pm »
At random times while running, my physical stamina automatically drops back to 0. This has been going on for about 30 minutes, and started to occur after I logged out with a Death Realm curse and logged back on the next day. The longest time it takes to not drop to 0 is about 1 minute, but a few minutes later it only takes seconds, making it impossible to travel.

Anybody have any idea whats going on here, and how to fix this?

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Jirosh Stolen Statue Stuck
« on: October 16, 2007, 08:53:14 pm »
After speaking to an NPC in Jirosh Stolen Statue quest,  I gave away a quest item, then I said the wrong thing. I cannot make the NPC repeat itself without the quest item, and it says I cannot discard the quest because it can only be done once.  Help?
