I'm especially looking for people with Unity engine experience starting now.

What is it you are doing with the unity engine?

No one here is jumping in with dev theories.  Its depressing.   swamp poop

I may have a super awesome programmer interested.  He is awesome at web shit as well.  Also able to engage in critical thinking.  I am slowly reeling him in...  awesome, for real

No Nerf, but I put a link to this very thread and I said that you all can guarantee for my purity. I even mentioned your case, and see if they can take a look at your lawn from a Michigan perspective.

I'm shutting my mouth and watching, pretty much. Just interested, but don't really have anything to add to the conversation. ^_^

- Good with Unity? Love you long time.

Hm? What's confusing?

He quoted what jobs were available and then you posting you were looking for people with Unity experience. Then he asked what you were going to be doing implying he might be able to help and then you posted that you can't say and he posted the pixelish ex-cyborgs death cycle from the flash game we made earlier this year as a response to you asking for something and then not saying why.

I decided to give Divinity a try, but for some reason I get flickering while in full screen.  Its driving me insane!  I set compatibility mode up with both razor and UO (Windows XP SP 2, Admin mode, Disable desktop, etc) and its still happening.  I guess I could play in Window Mode; at least that way I can change the resolution to something wide screen.

Anyhow, throwing this post here because I wanted to query when you would start testing things out as far as IPY/AC or whatever you are going to call it.

Quests! I got this awesome idea where there are rats in a cellar and you have to clear them out, otherwise the miller's grain will be eaten. There's like ten of them.

That sounds awesome and I think it should be included in every MMO.

Good idea, but we can go a different direction with it...  How about requesting ten looted starter robes to wipe up the carebear tears?  Since, you know, that would make the bread salty.

Holy shit dude, that's an awesome direction to go in. I had thought you were just going to make it open PvP, like old school, then toss in a bunch of somewhat-Ultima-ish quests as something to keep people busy between smack fests.

Nope.

Edit: This post was longer, but I felt it was a little hype-ish. If I can over-deliver on something you don't have incredibly high expectations of, that's a good thing. Follow my blog for a better idea of what my philosophies are on this one. Hopefully you'll be pleasantly surprised when it's ready to go.

Man good luck, I read the comments on that virtue entry and all I saw was a huge list of exploits waiting to happen. "Oh man I just rezkilled that guy right off the shard. Get your newbie out and stand him in the orc fort so I can heal him, I need to get more Compassion."

I think a lot of that is unavoidable, without GM intervention. The original Ultimas were full of that anyway; healing up, donating blood, healing again, donating again, picking fights with snakes then waiting for them to run away, etc.

Crap, now I want to play Ultima 4 again.

Well, I'm doing what I can to prevent exploits. Obviously I can't get into that really, since that kind of thing being public knowledge wouldn't be wildly helpful.

We'll see how things go. I'm sure we'll have our challenges. Since I'm not trying to sell any boxes, I can probably have a nice long period that I call an "Open Beta", which will hopefully buy me time to fix some things and then wipe the shard clean.

Time-based diminishing returns would solve the spamming / macro issue.

A multiplier on every act which increases the end karma gain/loss if it is opposite of your current alignment would make it trend towards zero more.

Diminishing returns are definitely involved in the plan.

In fact, diminishing returns seems to be involved in everything I do. And I hate diminishing returns.

Does that make me a bad game designer?
