That\'s the stupidest idea I\'ve ever read.
Gem hunting bites, why prolong the misery?

You ought to try playing it as an mmoRPg instead of an mmog.

yah gem collecting is a pain in the ass.... its just something to keep us busy while they work on the next update so we wont desert the game completely until the next version comes out.....

there was a small quest to see how the talk to the npc system worked, but that has been taken out of the game.

all of the npcs are gone now right?

I heard that jewel makers needs crystals to make their jewels... so i think they will stay existing... you never go to search of them but if you see one you could pick it up and sell it to the jewel makers

The crystals we have now won\'t be in future releases. There will be crystals/gems, but they will probably be found when mining, or digging...

But aren\'t crystals the cash? I thought someone said something about that last night when I was on...

Mining for your cash would be a little much in my opinion... I think I\'d just end up as a thug, stealing cash for things if it turned out that way...

Currently, yes the crysatlas are \"cash\" to buy useless weapons...But in CB, they will be turned into tria, which is the real currency of PS, (See this (http://www.planeshift.it/setting_economy.html) )

yah alright wait you mean the ones we collect or that overall the currency will change to tria system

Title:
Post by: dfryer on April 06, 2004, 08:59:51 pm

Overall currency will definitely change to tria, there *may* be some crystal->tria conversion possible when the switchover  happens.

yah but that would be frustrating because the character you used was only to test the game and you wanteed to use another race that wasnt out yet...then you would have spent as much time collecting them as others but they are the only ones that benefit.....So what are the crystals for? just to collect for fun

Post by: Icefalcon on April 07, 2004, 12:10:32 am

...to give us something to do...
