Falling Off the Map
« on: October 01, 2008, 09:48:53 pm »
Hi Everyone,

I realize that this must have been posted before, but I just wanted to bring this issue back to the top...

I just started playing PS about a week ago and for the most part I'm really enjoying it.

However, I find the problems with the map ridiculous.  Most notably, I'm talking about the gap to the portal going from Ojaroad2 into the Hydlaa area, and going from Hydlaa to the arena.  I've also noticed a few other places where I've fallen off the map.  If there's no GM around, I just have to kill myself which is a huge annoyance.  If there was one reason I would stop playing right now it would be these map issues.  It's almost like I have to ask permission to get moved to wherever I'm going, and it really throws a wrench into the whole experience of the game.

Are these issues really so hard to fix?  I realize there are a lot of other issues needing attention with this game, but it seems like the map issues shouldn't be too hard and they're kind of an immediate problem in the game when trying to get across the map.  For the Ojaroad problem, it seems like the portal road part just needs to be moved down a little or something.  But I don't know the inner workings of the game, so maybe I'm mistaken.

For what it's worth, I'm running the latest version on an iMac 3.06GHz running Leopard.  But I know many others are having these same problems.  Update please!!!!

Well, I guess I figured out a temporary solution...  Fire up BootCamp and play the game on Windows!  This seems to have fixed those major map glitches I was experiencing on the Mac version.  Sorry, forum, for being so hot-headed.  It's just very frustrating and, although I'd like to play in my preferred OS, I guess this will do for now until they update the Mac client.
