###Q&A
(10:00 min mark)
Monkeyball21: Can we expect the fame changes to be before February?
Willem: I think so, we’re trying to do a release today. Hopefully, it’ll be on testing soon, but closed to public. It’ll be up by the end of January or the beginning of February.
Nubbers: (Nubbers or Noobers?) When will you implement the ultimate flawless solution? How will the spam bots be destroyed?
The ways to stop this is to make only players rank 3 or up be able to talk and force new accounts to run tutorial.
Zbornox: We have thought of some of these
DashAhead: There is no flawless solution, exploring
Willem: We thought of those, some they’re very anti-new player. MMOs where you can’t talk for the first few days are harsh.
Zbornox: We’re thinking
DashAhead: Ultimate solution may be combination of those, but we’re not there yet.
JuliusJudo: Sup?!
What action is being taken about hacked clients? I know good evidence is hard to come by.
Willem: Send a support ticket. If there’s definitive proof, we ban them.
DashAhead: But definitive proof is hard to come by. What we need to do is to limit those hacked clients from our side. Reports are tricky and can be inaccurate. Photoshop can be used to fake proof. We don’t want to wrongly ban someone.
Seriously, DashAhead, are you in fact Paul Rud, or at least a relative of his? Don’t take this the wrong way, but I have a serious bromance on your voice, platonically.
(16:00)
Willem: Well you did have that vocal cord switching surgery
DashAhead: Yeah, Paul Rud might have been a doner
He is also Jewish.
Zbornox knows a lot about Paul Rud from the wiki
DashAhead thinks his voice doesn’t sound like Paul Rud
DashAhead doesn’t mind a bromance crush on his voice.
Zbornox: DashAhead looks more like Lord Ruthvan, with the cape
Greedkils: When the Elder Realms are released, will the normal realms get changed? What’s the progress on Elder Realms?
Willem: No, they’ll be completely separate. Designs for the Elder Realms are drawn by Willem. He wants to do something above the level of realm, something new and epic, but the technology’s not up to scratch. An engineer will be conscripted to work on them, changing the mapping software. They’ll know capabilities in a week. Several enemies are made. Basically waiting for engineers to finish their current project (fame changes?)
Coat: You said marriage is out of the question, which is understandable. But will you go out on a date with me? I will buy you tacos, and pie, and candy, accompany by the movie of your choice, Everyone knows you won’t say no!
Zbornox: Well I’m sorry, Coat. I’d love your food, but I have a boyfriend. He’ll have to come along and supervise. I also made DashAhead and TiffyTiff a little envious with tacos, so they want to come as well. Dash doesn’t like the ocean.
Dash: Everyone is going. Let us know when that will happen.
MerchantCo: Shall the nexus crier ever return to our loving arms?
Willem: Yes he probably will return. He was part of an emergency situation. So, in order to out him in, we’ll need a full push. We can spawn him, but what he says is preprogrammed. You’ll likely only see him when there’s a big emergency right next to an update.
DashAhead: Someone asked if the Nexus Crier could announce that the lag in the game is due to the Chrome updates, but we don’t want to blame others. Don’t use Chrome for now.
Willem: We might change him later.
You guys made fun of him blah blah blah
GTM: I’ve seen you guys post and Tweet at the most weird times. Do you guys work odd hours?
DashAhead: Maybe you live in a different time zone than we do, but we post from 9-5. We tweet when we feel like though. Zbornoz scheduals her tweets.
DashAhead works Sundays, Zbornox works Saturdays.
Singing, random chatter
Crassword:
To Tiffy: DO you love me, as much as I love you?
Zbornox: The answer is no, because Tiffy’s love is infinite.
(26:00)
Tacos. The end. Please make the rest of the cast about Taco dungeons. I want a super awesome taco set
They thought he meant Taco Dung.
Willem: The reason you don’t want to see a taco dungeon is the player population’s fault. There was a backlash after Mad Lab. It doesn’t fit in with the High Fantasy scheme of Realm.
We canceled a whole awesome dungeon because we thought players would dislike the theme. If you guys want a wider range of content, be careful what you say. Be receptive. We’re going to edge into sillier content.
(27:50)
Piply: (female skins) Burr! It looks cold outside in the Nexus! Can the bun buns come inside to warm up sometimes? Also, I’ve seen the new Steath Assassin pack and the skin looks curvy. Does that mean it’s a female skin? Will there be a female priest skin? If so, I’d definitely buy it.
PS: How many people work on RTS Kabam?
Willem: The Assassin is in full stealth gear. It may be any gender. He/she is pretty curvy. For the priest skin, I would love more female skins. (Nuns) More female skins will come out.
2 designers + Mike + 7 Engineers + Brandon + Q&A
(15 of us or so)
Happy Birthday Betty White! Happy 91st. All of the Golden Gods of the Realm wish you a happy birthday.
Willem: We care
Give her chocolate blah blah blah
(31:00)
Padmei: So many questions so little time
Have you seen Blackjam’s King’s Chest idea? Are you thinking about it?
DashAhead: We are thinking about it. I didn’t see it until you posted this question. Zbornox hasn’t seen the actually post. Kabam doesn’t know about it for the most part. Tell us about it.
Castlevania shirt blah blah blah Simon Belmont blah blah blah ugly Chrismas sweater
Should I write more songs/poems
Everyone: Yes.
Aurorious: First off, hearty hello to you all. Are you planning on adding addition music? The current theme is getting boring. You said composers are boring. Myself and others are decent composers. Can we make music for the game?
Dash: Send us music and we’ll play it on the Realm cast. We’d love to play it if it’s original and you give us the permissions. Willem is working on music. We have inhouse composers. They have samples.
Willem: Reviewing styles. Is currently choosing interesting and good tracks. He agrees the main song is getting grating. Still in the process of chosing. If you have samples, feel free to send it to us. Willem will consider.
Dash: Send your stuff our way and we’ll definitely listen to it
Zbornox: We might make a contest out of it. Give us a month and a half. Start composing now!
Dash: We might not do a contest.
Zbornox: There’s always an open submission.
Adventure time blah blah
Jufda: How much books do you read? Favorites?
Dash: phrasing funny blah blah.
Tiff: Murakami
Zbornox: I’ve read Norwiegen Woods
Dash: I’ve just been reading the Neuromancer.
I’ve wanted to read the trilogy. Cyberpunk.
CGIs in trailers suck blah blah
Zbornox: I read a lot, mostly auto-biographies. Elliot Aronson’s Not By Chance, Social Psychologist. I’m always reading a book
Dash: I read a lot more comics then prose. I don’t read nonfiction.
Willem: I don’t read very much. I’m dyslexic, so I’m slow. I listen to lots of audiobooks. I play too many video games.
Marvel > DC (DashAhead) blah blah blah
(42:00)
Gogoasafur:
As you know by now, I am an avid member of the I REFUSE TO DIE foundation. Will we see any changes that will let us display our living character’s awesomeness? Badges? Tooltip?
Willem: No immediate plans. Maybe someday
Dash: It’s a good idea
Will we see any social RP elements in the game? Marriage?
Dash: We don’t stop in game marriage, but there’s no chapel for it.
Sante: Did Google Chrome update cause the glitches recently? Did the Peptide plugin cause it?
Everyone: Yes. Play your game in a different browser.
Zbornox: Who will !@#$ curse or !@%$ reveal his name in the Realm cast?
(45:00)
Crapadap: What are you looking for in a forum mod applicant?
Zbornox: We need someone trustworthy. Isn’t judgemental. Will do things for the greater good.
Willem: Need to be responsible. Need to understand the frustrations of the community are frustrating for everyone. Be mature to respect the issues we’re having.
BobPenguin: Do you like my story? (Oryx’s Origin)
Dash: Only Tiff read it so far. She likes it.
LootBeard: Zbornox, do you go to Taco Bell (no), Taco Bueno (no)?
Zbornox: I like a soft shell taco from Taco John’s.
If I made an animated taco sprite for you, would you add it to your signature?
TiffyTiff: Yes I would.
Who’s beard do you like the most?
(Lootbeard hasn’t posted his beard, so they can’t judge.)
Dash: Post a picture of your beard!
DashAhead and Zbornox would make a great couple.
Dash: They both have significant others. But we would make a great chimera!
Archon: What would you do for a ?condite? bar?
Willem: I’d pay $1.5, or do a short dance, or recite a poem or joke.
Someone stole all of them blah blah
GWhut: For the Anime nerds, who would win a fight? Vash the Stampede (Trigon), or Spike Spiegal.
Willem knows little about them.
Dash: Spike is clever, but he would kill someone. Vash doesn’t kill people. Vash is more western cowboy style.
Overall, Vash would win.
Out of the other three people in the room, who would you kill?
Tiff: We can’t answer that (violation).
Dash: We can talk about kiling fictional things though.
Iamop: (We can change your name to I am wig or I am Mop)
What Gundam do you like the best?
Dash: Deathscythe Custom. Shenlong is second.
What about dat lag?
Everyone: Yeah, it’s terrible
What about tacos:
Zbornox is craving them
Dash: They’re just a lot of good things stuffed together. Who doesn’t like tacos?
Zbornox texts her boyfriend for tacos
KidsTonio: First off, thanks for reading. Third, what did you guys do in your free time when you were 5-10 year old.
Everyone: We played outside because we didn’t have as much technology.
Dash grew up in the mountains.
Willem made lego mazes for insects.
Willem trapped caterpillars in his toy chest. They pooped and died.
XXXsBoyXX: Can I be DashAhead’s friend, since he seems to not have any?
Dash: yaaaahhhhh. I appreciate it.
Hi Tiffytiff, I caught you playing tag in nexus
Dash: Well you win. You better be happy!
DruidSpell: Anyway, can you give us one detail about an enemy of the Elder Realms?
Willem: I just made an enemy called the Crystal guardian, which teleports and uses magic.
Everyone: Ohhhhhh Realm cast exclusive about the elder realms.
(1:02:00)
PieCake (Adventure time quiz)
Yuchiku: While the Ghostly Prism change was indeed a change, any chance it and the totally macaroni/total balony robe (Mixcoatl’s Tlaolani Robe) might get an improvement?
Dash: It does do more damage now, for longer period of time.
Everyone: what does he mean by Macaroni robe?
Why limit packages to a few days? I missed a pack because I was out for a few days/
Willem: We pull packs down to put new ones up. Right now, we can only have one package up at a time. The Holiday ones are one time only, but ones like the Play More packs will come up again and again.
End of Q&A
(1:07:00)
I got bored after finishing school work, so I decided to save Trustee some work and transcript! Sorry to anyone’s name I misspelt.
