Thread: Friday with Means - January 22nd, 2010 - What time is it??

  1. #1

    Funcom employee Friday with Means - January 22nd, 2010 - What time is it??

    Lindelu, Flaptoot and Mstrbstrd have pulled together to produce a fantastic update that is now in a fine playable state on the Test Dimension.

    We have been discussing the concept of "Daily Missions" for quite some time now and it is great to finally be able to see you all have a first chance to have a look at these new experiences. The ability to pick up an individual mission that will take you to varied content and allow you to make significant progress every day is a fantastic addition. Those of us who find their time tied up, and those who don't will all find benefit and variety in this new system. These are the foundations for the new system that are coming out now and we can look forward to adding to this system for years to come.

    Unfortunately there are some missions that are not included in this version but we should be seeing them early next week.

    **Note**

    There are NO rewards associated with these missions on Test at the moment. The reason for this is simpe: We would like feedback on the actual missions...not the rewards they offer at this point. The rewards will be more than adequate...this will not be an issue. We look forward to hearing from you concerning these missions.

    There are also some changes to concealment/perception checks and client/server position verification in this update.

    Players who are concealed basically will no longer "exist" to players who can not "Perceive" them. Position information is not sent to players who are unable to detect the concealing player. This will also mean the end of the "XXXXX tried to hide but failed" messages.

    Have a great weekend

    "A whole new place to run around for ages in then die suddenly without warning."

    "I know who coded pet pathing... and when I see him I say "/follow" and I start waling in to walls :P"

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

    Torgo, the Game Director!

    In any case, ... any word on Grand Theft Humidity and Borrow Reflect?

    Also:
    Players who are concealed basically will no longer "exist" to players who can not "Perceive" them. Position information is not sent to players who are unable to detect the concealing player. This will also mean the end of the "XXXXX tried to hide but failed" messages.
    Does this also mean that this will remove the shadow effect that still lingers on hidden players in outdoor environments?
