Muratus del Mur

grido, i think that happens to you because your stats are never gone during mp7 , just hidden, i am still unsure if i should leave it so or cancel stats entirely. I guess i will think about it next time i do changes to mp7.

there are 77 weapons in total, i don't know now how many are public right now. just saying The higher price and lower stats of some set items are so because a set item increases the overall value of the set, which leads in the end to much higher benefits than the item itself.

wasn't a bug, wasn't me either, were her actions. and regarding the password theory, if someone shoots you by mistake thinking you are someone else, then can you say stop please undo? no you can't.

lol...thnx for letting me know. i forgot it like that since on my account was set to work and i didnt noticed it was not actualy:D fixed now.

Check your shop now, you should see the guards, post back if after defeating them you still can't go in, good luck.

Will be fixed very soon, sorry for the delay. message me what alts you want out of the group so you can start with it fresh once its fixed. p.s. i think this might be an issue with this group because when i tested there was nothing similar going on, anyway we will see soon.

main reason to stop spells was because those with spells were people hand picked and not everyone had a chance to have spells. Spells could be highly abusable during a competition, but not if anyone could have them. Its possible that at a later time there wont be any restrictions for spell usage during competitions but also its possible that some spells will be taken away , such as chase and summon especialy. These two are spells that are highly desired by anyone but at the same time they unballance things a lot in very many ways. More info when it will be the case. Please continue to share your thoughts on the ongoing WS changes while i add more items to it. I realy like to see what you think about what things become slowly public (even if wp are hard to get). WP value and distribution will probably also be adjusted after the ws will give a better picture of what ammount of wp you need to get to the last items, which are.....can't say now [img]http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/public/style_emoticons//blum.gif[/img]

i think wp will change md quite a lot. i don't want to tell stories about waht things are in work now, to much talking leaves to little time to actualy put those things up. Basic ideea is that the the trade value is worthy enough, then the game can be both commercial and special. In this case the trade value is the ability to make quests given a limited number of tools. Make those quests, use YOUR achievements as rewards, then who solves them deserves a chance to get one step further on the ladder. THis type of ladder is not about stats, will ot destroy the game turning it into what all other games are and will break the current elitism too, allowing anyone smart enough to gain rpc powers. Its a long way ahead, but the biggest step, the wish shop, is done. I should probably increase the work speed, but when i get so excited about new stuff i tend to do more new stuff and miss to finish the "new stuff" that is allready in progress, so NO i don;t want any more good ideas

Finaly! no more limit. In just 2 days of advertising you can see the high number of online players. It was all because the damn 32bit OS.. thousands of dollars lost on ads for nothing, good at least that in the last couple of onth i stopped it entirely arrgggggggggggg

Issue was solved by adding an additional check at the creature recruit if the menu item is activated or not. This problem happend because the menu item gets enabled first time you recruit a creature and if you do that at mp2, the mp3 level resets your menu items too but you still have the key remaining. If i remove the key then you get the congratulations message again at mp3 and its confusing. So, to see your menu item again you just need to recruit an other creature and it should appear. Please test it once the left menu is back up and let me know if it works. Thanks.

I was asked countless times about where the magic is in md? well the magic is everywhere, "outermagic" abilities are just an ... illusion )you sometimes miss to see the forest because of the trees.

That was my problem since the beginning of MD and still is ... the choice if to make ti more commercial and get BIG or to keep it exclusive and special. Regarded as a business, i could use my 'skills' to make it into a very popular game with high audience and make it so that 80% of the gamers will get addcted to it ... because thats what you do actualy in other games, not like, but get addicted to. For example WOW (i have something personal against the way it was built) is designed to target the highest percentage possible (around 80%). Since i do not consider MD a business, i will keep it as i feel right with it, exclusive as you call it. The problem is that without many players, the old ones or the ones that the game was made for so to say, will also leave...so we need sacrifice lambs. The game has several filters to kill off players at certain points , the ultimate filter is when you make a difference between the game itself and its community, the moment when you consider yourself an active player even if all you do is to stay on the forum or chat with others, becaues the most valuable thing in MD are its players, not its features. I worked to much on elitist features, even now for example, i am working on the Black Letters, a series of 15 letters that will be sent out to 15 players ... now imagine how elitist is that if not even all rpcs get those. Its wrong, true.. but i do it because i enjoy it and the reason you have MD and enjoy it is because i did only the things i enjoyed to do, so i can not make promises that things will get less elitist around here, even if i realise i should make it more easy at the beginning with the regular npc grinding and hardcoded ladder quests ... like any other old fashioned rpg. There is an other thing you are right about, and if i think better about it , i think solving it it might also solve the first issue too or at least partialy solve it. The powers given to rpcs are lost when those rpcs leave. Thats why i think the wish shop is an essential element in MD because i will put there features that will be rpc-like but achievable by anyone. All games i played grow in only one direction .. "serial" ... but .. i had a dream before starting MD..to have a "game" grow also in "parallel". For example you read a book, that story grows serial, only in one direction, but what if a book had 1000 versions or branches to it.. People enjoy serial growing of stories and game, they enjoy to gain more and more stats and get deeper in their adventure, even if they realise their adventure has only one way of expanding. Even if you have options to pick skill branches or guilds, its still serial evolution. This type of evolution makes money, all business do it, but its no true adventure behind it. I like adventures that give you total freedom but freedom is not free you have to work for it. RPC are more free than a new player, freedom, of choice, of action, this is the trade. There are two ways to be tottaly free, either tottaly smart or tottaly ignorant , ignorant people are "free" to leave.

ok, so buying creats at mp2 messes with the creature icon ... but ..how do you get to creatures in mp2 ?

It happend to me that i saw some banners that i realy hated, and i wanted to disallow them from the google ads...but then i thought better .., the banners you hate, CLICK THEM ..it will sharge their owners ..oh i'm evil Now seriously ... so you think image banners in forum are disturbing ans should be removed? (leave only text ads)

"evil wife of horrible person Mur" Happy birthday P.s. Since she spends more time in game than with me, i had to do this

Sorry but i must laugh a bit.... You seen only a fraction of whats allready in the shop. There are about 35 items there, only 2 are public at the moment. The wish shop is planned to replace the things that are given during the festival and keep the festival for more festive things. Wish shop will have things that are currently not possible, like ability to edit clickable items (4 levels of items), ability to change subtitle of locations for x ammount of time, unique creatures NOT available in the MDS or on the map. Access to different locations (permanent) is also a possibility. Spless with limited uses (not regeneratable like for RPC) will be also there. WP for credits will be removed i think, i don't want to mix MDS with wish shop too much. 4wp wil probably be the most expensive item, and its the K doc because it means basicaly to start a new group and more people can use it after. The cost is divided in two ways, there is the actual wp cost of each item and the requirements to get to that item. For example, an item might cost 1 wp but to get to it you will need to spend 3 wp on other items, sort of like the depth in the MDS, only this time the items wont be visible in advance but you will see all of those you unlock not just few. The wp are not like credits, they count a lot even if used. Actualy the wp count is not substracted, they are only taged as used and for what reason, but if you use 3wp you still are considered that your overall achievment was of 3wp. This score might count later for a top of some sort, or even as base for deciding rpc roles (not sure yet). While regular players will get from the wishshop rpc-like abilities, the rpcs will retain certain benefits such as ability to edit one type of items not editable by anyone else, regenerating spells, reward abilities (spells, items, creatures) , the only one to give wishpoints (!) and most important i think is that the rpc group is the one with the heaviest decision and authority over what happens in the realm. There is a possibility that there will be one wp given out by solving a quest, the broken pattern quest. Currently i am rewarding it with a wp but its slow and i miss to reward some that did solve it, so i think to make it automaticaly, even if its obvious that most will use the solution to get a wp for their alts too..but its just one afterall (and puzzle could be randomized based on player id ). Also there is a problem in how RPC get wp ... well i am still a bit confused about this .. but i do plan something. I have a little surprise for rpcs that will contain about 4 wp, IF they are able to find them, more about it its allready said partialy in an other post, i wont tell it here. (might be ready for next festival, not now anyway)

I prepared something First round will go to rpc, it will also have several 'rewards' hidden within it if you manage to find them. more details later After the first series is out and works fine, i will consider sending it to other charaters too, but at first it will be a very limited series because of the dificult process to create them...they are basicaly a puzzle not just a paper saying congrats.

fixed land access for those with torches fixed mp display restricted access to recruit, altar and other such areas

answers - you use ap also for attacks, not only movement. - there wont be any single point for just taking the torch to be fixed - access to lands when you hold torch, FIXED - place where you return when you die - land affiliation while holding a torch - lose torch on logout FIXED - show mp group before attack FIXED to check - regen times after first move areas to be built later - top torch holders - land score page - admin for distributing rewards keep posting Thnx

Valy is not playing much, he is online when he has to see locations and such. Like with all the artist that come from outside the game you have to understand Valy is not a player first of all but an artist and then a player (if at all)..so if he is no longer online in game it doesn't mean he left for good. I worked with many people, scattered scenes and creatures allover the realm and especialy avatars are the work of many individuals, 3 of them you never met because they never had a md account ..but over time Valy became my friend and his work for MD is the most consistent and covers now 80-90% of what is here. All what you see its his imagination, like i said countless times i am not telling the artist what to draw exactly (except when its realy something that has to be that way) but i am telling the guides, the main feeling, ideea and concept of what i want to come out, thats what matters for me. The artist is free to do anything that in the end will have the same result. From time to time big time gaps happen between me and him, like it did with chapter 3 art. He is not at all a constant artwork provider, but when he does, he is the heavy artilery so to say. I remember back in the old good days when he was doing like 8 scenes per day, no artist i worked with after him could equal half of that. The best best thing about him is that i can communicate with him without many words, it happend to me that i had to explain people 100 times what i wanted and still didnt got what i wanted, but with him is the opposite, in fact i think even if i dont explain anything at all i will get what i want and thats the most important thing of all. Working for such a long time on MD he allready knows some things about it, things that save countless hours of explaining and reasoning. his main job is not MD however, i wish it was but its not, so Valy works on MD only from time to time, but as a person he is a friend that i talk to constantly.

Happy Birthday!! oldest MP7 in history! ))

all is done *looks with an evil grin and the monster server*

if i dont see it in my list it means its below the 100 pms that the interface displays. entropy is ballanced by syntropy, cant be reversed but can by halted, like time.

the advantage of this feature is that its very confortable for the majority to send lots of invitation with a few clicks...most are lazy u know
