Era Accuracy and bandaid woes.

[Faust]

Nice dodge.

Of course the older players don't give a shit, they already macroed their doods.

Cutting bandages isn't a big deal, but it adds NOTHING to the games fun, so kind of a wasted change, there are more important things that could have been done.

What you consider "important" Is subjective to each player.

What If I enjoy the novelty of cutting bandages one at a time? What If I take pleasure in knowing that each bandage I have to use on myself, on others, or to sell was imbued with the precious time I chose to give to it?

if we want era accuracy, I should be able to spam in all caps to block casters from targeting. Also, we should not be able to target health bars nor should we have last target. you guys need to stop touting this era accuracy all or nothing crap because it is clearly not ALL era accurate.

Nobody said the shard is in a "perfect" accuracy state right now and there is still TONS of "fixes" still left to change and implement on the list. The list continues to GROW every single day when "new" accuracy problems sprout up.

We aim to replicate the late '99 time frame of the t2a era. Last target was implemented in the 800x600 client that was patched and published in the second addition t2a retail box. This same client also introduced the new status bars that you "claim" are inaccurate too. The entire paragraph in your post is completely false and overall incorrect in all forms.

Proof - http://update.uo.com/design_25.html

All the stuff that you listed is very well in our "accuracy goals" for this shard.

Thanks,
Faust

The Phase III housing is not included because Derrick (you do remember Derrick, right? You know, that guy that runs the shard you all get to play on for free) decided it was just a lead-in to Ren and Trammel.

[Nayee]

lol, 3 pages in defense of something as minor as creating bandages by the stack. whatever.

[Faust]

I lol'd that there was no response from your last post.

I believe Phase II is the change in housing security whereas phase III is the changes in types of housing. Either way, more or less it became more of people crying "era accurate" when there are certain things that will probably not ever be changed due to changing the mechanics of the game (housing phase II, only 7 days for a house to decay, etc.) and what we're all looking for here.

Please, provide a link to 7 day house refresh!! I'll pay you 10k gp if you can do it.

About Phase II? It is what brought in co-owners, strong boxes, and more lock downs. Phase III is what brought in 1 house to an account (end of role playing), decay in houses, and those ugly ass houses.

This is an era accurate shard with a modified Phase II housing plan... get use to it. It's not gonna change.

I am reasonably sure of the 7 day housing thing as well, not that we need that here of course, but it seems like it was accurate.
Also, this whole thing is moot, you can have 3 accounts. Set some bandaids on the ground, and have 3 people cut them at the same time. You can make like a zillion in 10 mins.

Lol, great quote. I've also already posted in the other thread about it actually being 11 days with a link there on the housing decay.
Again, people scream accuracy to the high heavens but then throw in things like the quote above. Yes, it is ALL about accuracy
