Ah...
Guess I should have mentioned, after I made that post, I set up a spawn party in the coliseum.
It's nothing fancy... yellow archers and blood mummies galore for the lowers.
If you're feeling adventurous, well, the top rooms are quite dangerous - but good xp.
I watched for some time - the teamwork involved was quite impressive.
And players are gaining xp like crazy.
All standard mobs, no added drops.
Just, lots and lots of them.
Hope everyone had a little fun.
Should be going until server restart... which is 10 hours from now.
Go check it out - but watch before entering.... and be careful if you decide to bring pets.
Some fun at start map

Re: Some fun at start map
Ok, before I go to bed, here are some pics of start map:

Now, I didn't do a ton of decorating (what I did have was time consuming enough)... but I think it turned out ok.
The new update is coming - it will be ready when it's ready, and not before.
I know, it was hoped to be ready for the anniversary, but it's far better that it get delayed, than it be released with bugs in it.
So, just be patient... and hope everyone enjoyed the little xp party today. If not, well, hope you enjoyed the teleporters. Or both

Re: Some fun at start map
I really liked the stuff at start map. I only hope that one day they become permanent and stay forever


What is Death!!
To think our self confidence is lower than that of our enemies is Death!!
Staying alive in battlefield in fear of our enemies is Death!!
Running from our enemy instead of fighting is Death!!

Re: Some fun at start map
Yea it was great for a lvl 1000 plus mage with devil pets that stole my little archer(78)'s spawn of 8 or 9 mummies in one "kill everything in sight" tap.death911 wrote: Mon Feb 19, 2018 3:48 pm I really liked the stuff at start map. I only hope that one day they become permanent and stay forever

Don't get me wrong, the idea was awesome and MadMikael did a great job ... but permanent? No, I hope not.
Forgotten Tales would be reduced to one map for grinding, and as seen above, for the most powerful.
There was a room a little farther north of where I was that would have been more fitting for that mage, but like everywhere in FT, there are many powerful players that think nothing of destroying/stealing a smaller (level) players spawn.
Just look at the Ashdown event as an ongoing example, or the plains of Silverwood.
I'll fight for what I think is right!

Re: Some fun at start map
Lol i am referring to the portals lol. I like the way ther portals MadMikael places at start map. One to bank. One to Silverwood. One to warlocks and one to 100$ city. I don't know about spawn party. Haven't been there.
I was saying that maybe the portals at start map be there always one day. But they usually go away at system restart.

Oh, there may be a future planned system for this sort of thing...death911 wrote: Mon Feb 19, 2018 9:03 pm Lol i am referring to the portals lol.

It won't be like what I made, but it would allow you to get around (I'm not sure how exactly).
The best part is, that if it is implemented (and different), the kind of start map thing could still be done once in a while

Re: Some fun at start map
Oh well, yes, I've liked those since the first time I saw them ... October for Halloween, I think, was my first. Regardless, my thought exactly, "Hey, this should be permanent!" Silverwood and back in 2 easy clicks.MadMikael wrote: Mon Feb 19, 2018 9:38 pmOh, there may be a future planned system for this sort of thing...death911 wrote: Mon Feb 19, 2018 9:03 pm Lol i am referring to the portals lol.
