Dev Tracker: Discussion

[Hitou]

All mounts are controlled by the same ESP as beastmaster pets, obviously! Personally, I think the "sidesaddle" looks stupid because unlike real sidesaddle you're looking to the left instead of where you're going. I guess they didn't want Mithra legs to be clipping into the tiger's body but they probably could have made a smaller tiger model or something. I'm just glad Fenrir isn't sidesaddle for Mithra, would have ruined the awesomeness.

Yea earlier i used the term side saddle then duder said princess model pose or whatever. Im guessin same thing. Im just more pointing out that if you ride correctly facing forward at least with legs on either side you look more in control than that side saddled mess Mithras do on tigers. And its stiff and jsut looks horrible. Funny to even put side saddle in as I think that was used for ladies with dresses on? there really isnt any dresses in game like that to make a lick of sense to adding it in.

Side saddle was used in the early 1900's to maintain a woman's "decency"; aka it kept from breaking the hymen. It was considered improper for a woman to ride astride (standard way of riding seen today). It had nothing to do with dresses.

*the more you know*

[Seha]

Mithra have never been decent though. Hell you start the game in bikini. Plus the feral culture and all, I think they could handle riding astride!

Eh I don't know about started but the clothes reason was definitely used at some point. Can't have a lady flashing her sexy legs after all

Lol true. But think about SE's track record with consistency on...anything.

At any rate, I'd take whatever position that didn't make my character look goofy. I picked up Fenrir and my Hume M looks like he's riding a wooden rocking horse with a back brace on.

"When challenging this with only a few people, it’s a good idea to use alter egos of non-human character to guard against the gnole’s special trait “human killer.”"

Hm, so Gnoles get human killer when they use that intimidation ws? I thought it just intimidated everyone.

[Kanriel]

Next month Intense is...Poroggo!

Also Ambuscade set will be the Askar set as some people have predicted we would get to see.

[Draylo]

Where do you see that? Also seems they have new content planned outside of master trials and Ambuscade, exciting!

Oh yeah, we're getting new battle content that isn't Ambuscade, forgot about that bit. Not sure if that's next month, though, just that it's coming.

I was wondering about that myself. triod 20k points now and yeah none of my autos or alter egos have ever been intimidated as far as I can tell but PC shit is non-stop. And yeah it's just after the ws

I wouldn't say that's enough to be "excited" lol
But I agree that's a totally positive news, one I'm really glad to read about ^_^
Afraid we won't see anything before march/april 2017 though, hope I'm wrong.

I'd wager before then. The plans are set until March/April, if they're talking about something it's almost certainly something already in the works.

Stop being such a #emo >.>

You know what you have to do to turn my emo into full happyness. Do it man, do it <3

[FaeQueenCory]

Woo! Now the real question will be.... will they add it to the vouchers immediately? Or will that be the month after it is new?
*saves this month's vouchers like a crazy person*

Now all they need is 4 more sets after Nyzul armors, and they have a perfect cycle of 12 armors. (My 2 cents: Limbus=2 + Valkyrie=2 =4)

[dasva]

Seriously though where are you seeing that stuff? It's not in the dev notes or freshly picked.

Also this months vouchers specifically say what armor they can be used with on them so doubt it would work retroactively

I just watched the video and didn't see any mention of future Ambuscade details either, so I too am curious about the source of confidence behind this prophecy >.>

My gil's on new vouchers to cover/catch-up after each set theme is done the month after each theme is completed.

---------------
As a prophecy of my own, I'm predicting there will be no major/unexpected content changes in October's update, since they are skipping the Freshly Picked until Nov..
And that there is a good chance of some big shake-ups in November's update since it's "the month of XI" after all and they <3 stuff like that. XD

[Trumpy]

As said last month when I asked, "He knows somebody." Devs specifically said the slips would only work for the armors out already. The cool thing to do would be makin the new vouchers for new gear for gallantry but im sure they will do as Nyarlko said.

I spose, that the fact I remember learning this in Elementary School might have also explained the reason given was due to Dresses. Im sure they would rather tell little kids bout dresses than broken hymens.

lol not exactly going out on a limb there with your "prophecy"

Cant posts links but the Freshly Picked Vanadiel 28 Digest in the SE Forums English forums/Updates/Version Updates =


" We’re currently in the midst of planning new battle content that is separate from Ambuscade and Master Trials. Hang in there a bit and we’ll be able to show it off soon.


The next Freshly Picked Vana’diel will take place in two months, and since it will fall in November, the month of XI, we will be delivering even more information than usual!

I’ll see you all then!"
