#22

Nice pfp.

Hi, have been on a long hiatus from realm and just saw this on the main page of forums. I was just wondering if the devs have said when the unity port will happen?

Thanks :slight_smile:


#25

no


#26

Thanks, and sorry for the bump.


#27

as long as its account fame iā€™m happy with the reset, I donā€™t know about the alive fame tho. wew


#28

I think an alive fame reset is good(or at least make chars that are alive at the time of the reset not give fame on death), just so people canā€™t cheat the new system of fame.


#29

thats easy to say if you only have 6k fame


#30

Thatā€™s maybe a red herring anyway because:


#31

My opinion still stands. If a new fame system is to be used, arkie or cutie cant just have 300k more than everyone else straight off the bat.


#32

Itā€™s true that if they brought in something awesome buyable with fame, some players are going to have an advantage if they can immediately suicide and can buy lots of [whatever the new thing is].

Probably means anything new canā€™t be truly awesome, as [whatever it is] is being given away for free in any case.

But isnā€™t that natural that the players who play the most will be in that situation no matter what? Even if it totally reset, after a couple of weeks those who have played 10+ hours a day will be again so far ahead of those playing only fractionally as much.


#33

i have about 200 alive fame


#35

Why reset account fame then? That fame was earned from deaths from huge amounts of time.
The difference between alive and dead fame is just the death of a char.


#36

Yeah it seems a can of worms waiting to explode no matter which way itā€™s done.

I guess it depends entirely on what any new thing buyable with fame is. If itā€™s just something cosmetic or trivial, nobody will much care. But if they allowed direct purchase of UT with account fame, thereā€™ll be ā€˜outrageā€™ from those in the purist ā€˜loot must be in a loot bag for you to be allowed itā€™ PPE style camps (even though thatā€™d could possibly have some merit as a concept IMO if done right).

Edit: full disclosure:

ā€¦though I didnā€™t think this affected my opinion, perhaps it does.


#37

@moderators can you close this thread cuz i hate seeing it in News and information on the front page because when i see it every time I think its like a new post and click on it and then I realize its like more than a month old

Ā 

[Sorry, no. If we closed every thread just because one person didnā€™t like seeing it, then there would be no open threads. OB]


#38

As long as there is active, on-topic discussion, itā€™s fine to keep the thread open. Also, only the OP can request a thread close anyways.


#39

whos op


#40

At the bottom of the thread you should see something like ā€œTrackingā€ ā€œYou will see a count of new replies because you posted a reply to this topicā€.

Clicking on ā€œTrackingā€ will give you a drop-down menu with a ā€œMutedā€ option.

Click ā€œMutedā€.


#41

True, but I donā€™t think that will stop the thread from showing up on the front page:

I think @Heteraabd is just going to have to deal with it, I fear.

[Having said that, can we please get back on topic? OB]
