Open Mog House! 11/07/2007

[Heie]

I for one am really glad they are adding this. I mean my friends really do need to come into my MH and see the how different it looks. I'm not talking about the furnature either. Since my MH in windy is so different from everyone elses MH. Need to bring people in so they can check out how different it is from everyone elses. Can see the addition I put on it and the new deck.

The prospect of getting e-punany is amusing for some, but not for the more mature playerbase. Fix Einherjar, Kings, etc! Stop wasting your time designing shit that has no purpose.

Unfortunately, the more mature playerbase can't afford to camp kings, because they have a job.

Windower plugin that lets people visit other people's moghouses: "hey that looks pretty cool. good job, windower devs"

SE actually letting people visit other people's moghouses: "hey that's pretty fucking stupid. fuck you, SE"

[Pacha]

i dunno what the fuck everyone's bitching about. i think it's a good addition.

I don't think people necessarily think the MH thing is a bad addition, rather, they're horrified that SE is spending more time thinking about MH cybering than adding actual content to the game.

Also, Pacha <--- Big fat Galka!

The windower one allowed for people from other servers to go into your mog also.

On another note, SE will have to make some "Guest Book" furnishings so people can have a log of who's been in their mog house

Bored GM's are in your MH watching leet cyber.

Hopefully at the very least, this will cut down on perverted mts.

Because they are tall and musclely and cuddly and would be very warm to snuggle next to in the cold winter months.

They're big and scary and horrible and scary. But how about we make a deal? You keep all the Galka busy so they don't molest the humes who don't want that?

Not sure how many goons are on BG, but first thing I thought to do:

Tonko might fight me for it, but I will most certainly try.

Don't know about the rest of you, but I've already started out sending out invitations to my sexy mog house party.

Your sentence implies that you or anybody else personaly knows that SE is spending MORE time on this than any other content the game has or will have. And that's the problem with bitching about this addition.

[Mrrill]

That isn't going to happen unless they rewrite a large portion of the network code. The bandwidth cap at the moment isn't intentional, it's just how the protocol works. The game fires off messages every half second (as does the server) instead of sending messages as they are generated. (Completely unrelated note: The lag in whitegate isn't due to latency issues. It's just more often than not your packet, or the server's packet, get's dropped on the way to it's destination, and so the contents of said packet must be re-sent at the next interval. A few dropped packets in a row creates the illusion of the horrible whitegate lag you're experiencing.)

Thanks for the interesting explanation!
Do the server resend the old packet, or does it lump it together with fresh data in the next packet?
I wonder if the server discards packets if they cannot be sent in time or if they lose it on a congested network connection..

It will be interesting to see if the server upgrade include better network equip (and a good isp).
Yes, I assume my 10MB connection and the route to Japan is fairly lossless

I actually would place a bet on this. If the majority thinks that seeing another person's MH is more entertaining than actually good drops from Einherjar and ejoying the fight, I'd question what the fuck our playerbase is smoking.

I dunno but I want some of it!

Sometimes, Thistle, you make me wish I'd made a galka.

i never get tired of seeing that screenshot. always hilarious.

For those of you commenting on Einherjar vs. Mog House, you all must not of heard of Everquest. Word of mouth from the end-game playerbase has a large impact on a much larger body of the playerbase on the whole. This in turn has influenced quite a number of MMOs since then

Oh lawd, "mature".


I really hope they fix Furniture so that you can keep a nice element/moghancement and have a pretty house. Every update they release 2 to 3 furnishings, but never ever is it Wind element. It's like "OH HAY GUYS, I DONT THINK YOU MOGHOUSE IS WATERY ENOUGH HAVE A AL ZAHBI BUCKET".

Dear SE: Can I get a leaky roof to go with my bucket?

Seriously, Wind Moghancement sucks. (But not as bad as Dark.)
