Regarding the coming update

[Quincebo]

thats good news dky..
any news on character transfer from Ra to horus yet?
i didnt follow the news lately but i didn't hear news from anyone for weeks

[eerO]

Fine that well get tons of bugs next month... great...


Seriously NGD, there are more things which are waaaaaaay more needed to be fixed. And the Update will make it worse, itll add bugs, like always.

Stop wasting your time with things we dont need. We like RO as it is... The new update will change the ENTIRE game. Its WoW style then, and i personally dont wanna play wow, thats why ive chosen regnum... cause its different. But i know NGD wont listen anyway, so why bother? NGD gives a fuck bout our opinions anyway.

Many ppl already wrote that there are really bad bugs (like the evade/resist bug) which need to be fixed asap, but what does NGD say? "We dont have time to fix bugs now..." GOD?! We buy ximerin to finance THEIR life, and what do they say?

But this is ending nowhere anyway. Well always have stupid bug, well never be able to transfer our chars and the new update will be downgraded because most players cant play anymore due to lag.

So if you dont wanna lose your community, do what the community says. We play the game, and we know the bugs... you cant.

I am not interested in graphics.
I´m interested in balance, and a better gameplay.
Kill the bugs^^. And kill some old spells, that noone would like to use.

it wouldnt be a problem for mages or archers, but for warriors, it makes a WORLD of difference. barbs would be stupid to use a 1h item. but marks AND hunters can use both short bows AND long bows.

until they implement dual wielding, boxes should be subclass specific (for warriors at least). it would not be tough to implement, just a simple "if" statement.

hmm last platinum box I got gave me a nice barb hammer to bad the char I was on was a marks

Great news for all of this, but still some concern regarding platinum boxes.

While this makes sense, in practice, a barb would be lucky if 20% of the weapon-select platinum boxes he uses are 2-weapons. In testing on Amun, I saw approximately a 10% 2h weapon rate with platinum boxes on barbs.

If it is to be random, should it not be a wholly 50%/50% chance for one or the other? Even if barbs become dual-wielders, I'm not certain 80-90% of them will stick with using x2 1h weapons (dual wielding) after the change is in effect. Sure a bunch will try it out, but in the end it'll probably even out with many reverting back to a single 2h weapon.

Just some food for thought.

Awesome news! Great thanks))

[Myxir]

If you don't believe just a little bit in NGD, you don't like the graphic, think that every change contains lots of new bugs... then, why the hell are you still here?
It rather looks like a troll profile...

Though i wouldve chosen less bitter words i read this message exactly the same way as lotrl. I dont really understand why the initial post was received with so much euphoria.

I think because some of us are really bored with the game, that changes to the gameplay dynamics is welcome (it's something new). Also. we appreciate the fact that information is now being shared to us, unlike before.

Let's not forget that this news has several good things for us:

• Features many users have asked for such as dual wielding for Barbs and balance fixes are coming.
• With the new models done, the team can now focus on bugs and balance.
• There is still hope for the game to improve, and now we have someone who may not be a member of the development team, but is in direct contact with them, and is willing to share information.
