simple poll. Would you be against a complete wipe, and re-release at a later date after more testing? With the sync issues, clans that exploited were rewarded, some mobs just stood there. I think a Re-release is in order. Clans that exploit whould not be rewarded by getting first pick of their city location.
Your opening sentence is contradictory to the actual poll. Would I be against a complete wipe, and re-release at a later date after more testing? No. Per the poll, however, do I think the game should be re-released? Yes.
I think the best thing for aventurine to do is sell DF to a competant company, and just collect royalties for their product. In proper developers hands, this game could be awesome. But it is clear that Aventurine is in no way able to deal with the developement and production of this game. So yes, i say rerelease under a new dev staff.
Description: This will fire bolts of mana at your feet, hurting yourself in the process. This is used best if you are wearing armour as it will boost your magic,defence,attack and rigour. It will take you down to just less than a quarter health then heal before starting again.
NOTE: There are so many variables to not dieing here, all i can suggest is that you only use newby staffs and observe the script the first time it is run to make sure you dont die from the mana and you go back to full health before starting again.
Must have:
Mana Missle spell in hotkey 1
Rest in hotkey 0
have a staff equipped and sheathed.
Macro skill leveling sucks, anyway, because it take the game out of the game, but being able to raise your magic defense by shooting spells at yourself is bullshit.

I was appaled to read that it is, in fact, 100% legal
They should only give you skill increases if you do damage or get damaged by another player/mob.

Agreed, if they only had more money im sure this wouldnt be a problem because they are a small company.
Who gives a shit about macroing spells up like that compared to the head start some clans have got?
To run those macros you need a safe place. If anyone finds you in town casting like that it is childs play to kill you so fair game I say.
Whining about some basic non-interactive, non-combat macros is just diluting a valid point.
I DONT blame the people for 'sploiting the mobs, it's human nature. but if they were known about, the server should have been bought down. When the lag issues happened, the servers should have been bought down. At the moment it's like waiting to play the second half of a game of football when for the first half you were frozen in place whilst your opponent scored goals by just standing at the start line and kicking repeatedly until the ball appeared in front of their foot.
Stop spreading rumors. It's all BS. From what I know the only guys exploiting are from LoD guild (5 of them). Building a city will take months. Noone have more than cimply claimed clan stone (can be done by one person farming for 15h alone on normal mobs, you can earn 500 gold per h on goblins if you know how to play). Just because you suck or simply don't know where to find best farming spots (of course non exploitable) don't spread lies. Only one guild in beta managed to build a somewhat latger city. That guild have 300 members and it took them 3 weeks of farming.
Overall. You are a trool.
I know for a fact that the exploiting spread much farther than a single handful of 5 players. There were ogranized teams spread out on Cairn harvesting Mobs. Dedicated looters, macros to keep people autoswing and casting to kill quickly etc...
Doing a quick count during 2 hours of play II saw at least 40 people that enjoyed smashing the Pinata Mobs for 100+ gold and high level armor and weapons. The best part is that if another guild tried to attack you could desync by just running a few steps and jumping a couple times.
In some camps there were three different guilds harvesting Mobs and trying to out ninja loot each other, since the Mobs and graves were the only things still synced
Re-release...naaaaww that sounds a bit unrealistic, but this all is certainly a good case for about a 16 hour rollback hehe.
Hmmm. The servers launched at 3:00am EST on Thursday, they crashed at least 4 times and weren't stable until about 10:30am. For the most part they were only running from 10:30 - 10:00pm and have been down since then.
So your 16 hour rollback = Re-release. Honestly the servers haven't been up that much at all , that is why a wipe / re-release is actually viable.

Might want to edit, so as not to confuse folks.
