RE: Banned For Buying A Item From A NPC
Your account for Mythic Entertainment's game "Dark Age of Camelot" has been

The player was observed in game intentionally abusing a game anomaly or "bug" to
obtain items they would not normally be able to obtain through normal game
means.






****************

I got banned for a mythic screw up. How retarded is that. I emailed dispute and sanya... no responce.

STAND UP

Mythic wont admit his problems, and when they do have problems they just ban people.

I even reported the bug, and still got banned for it, YOUR WELCOME FOR THE HELP.

Just responding generally, not on this specific instance:

- If you see something that you know must be a mistake, like being able to buy a house for two copper, doing it once is understandable. Doing it twice is verification.

- People who are just verifying a mistake usually report the bug to us immediately, and say "I bought a house for two copper, and then did it a second time to verify."

- People who buy a batch of two copper house deeds are a little weaselly, but if they don't run around squealing they probably wouldn't get anything but the excess ones stripped from their accounts, and a slap on the wrist.

- People who buy a hundred houses, run out to a city, and type /br HAHA MYTHIC SUCKS I BOUGHT A HUNDRED HOUSES FOR TWO COPPER GJ LOSERS WHO WANTS TO BUY A HOUSE are quite possibly exploiters taking advantage of an obvious bug, but they'll just get suspended, not banned.

YMMV.

RE: Listen to Journey, it gets you all the chicks
Wheel In The Sky
----------------
Winter is here again oh lord,
Haven't been home in a year or more
I hope she holds on a little longer
Sent a letter on a long summer day
Made of silver, not of clay
I've been runnin' down this dusty road

Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'

I've been trying to make it home
Got to make it before too long
I can't take this very much longer
I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever gonna make it home again
The mornin' sun is risin'
It's kissin the day

Oh the wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I dont' know where I'll be tomorrow
Ooo the wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'





SEPARATE WAYS (WORLDS APART)
----------------------------
Here we stand
Worlds apart, hearts broken in two, two, two
Sleepless nights
Losing ground
I'm reaching for you, you, you


Feelin' that it's gone
Can change your mind
If we can't go on
To survive the tide love divides


Someday love will find you
Break those chains that bind you
One night will remind you
How we touched
And went our separate ways
If he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
You know I still love you
Though we touched
And went our separate ways


Troubled times
Caught between confusions and pain, pain, pain
Distant eyes
Promises we made were in vain, vain, vain


If you must go, I wish you love
You'll never walk alone
Take care my love
Miss you love


(chorus twice)


I still love you girl
I really love you girl
And if he ever hurts you
True love won't desert you
No, No




Any Way You Want It
-------------------
Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it

She loves to laugh
She loves to sing
She does everything
She loves to move
She loves to groove
She loves the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh,she said,
"Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"
She said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"

I was alone
I never knew
What good love could do
Ooh, then we touched
Then we sang
About the lovin' things

Ooh, all night, all night
Oh, every night
So hold tight, hold tight
Ooh baby, hold tight

Oh, she said,
"Any wya you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"
She said, "Any way you want it
That's the way you need it
Any way you want it"



Faithfully
----------
Highway run
Into the midnight sun
Wheels go round and round
You're on my mind
Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight
Sendin' all my love
Along the wire

They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family
Right down the line
It's been you and me
And lovin' a music man
Ain't all it's supposed to be

Oh girl you stand by me
I'm forever yours...faithfully

Circus life
Under the big top world
We all need the clowns
To make us smile
Through space and time
Always another showWondering where I am
Lost without you

And being apart ain't easy on this love affair
Two strangers learn to fall in love again
I get the joy
Of redescovering you
Oh girl, you stand by me
I'm forever yours...faithfully

Oh, oh, oh, oh ...
Faithfully, I'm still yours
I'm forever yours
Ever yours...faithfully



DON'T STOP BELIEVIN'
-------------------
Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy, born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere


A singer in a smokey room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on


Strangers waiting, up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching in the night
Streetlight people, living just to find emotion
Hiding, somewhere in the night


Working hard to get my fill,
everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice,
just one more time
Some will win, some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie neve

RE: How does Armor work?
Has anything been said about how armor works?

My preference would be that each location of the body (Head, Torso, Legs, Right Arm, Left Arm) take damage independantly. So you have the armor in the location provide protection for that location only.

Then armor only provides resistance. So you have Slash, Pierce, Crushing, Fire, Cold, Energy, and Magic damage types that each type of armor raises and lowers the resistances for in those areas. Cloth would make you more suseptible to fire and metal would make you suseptible to energy.

MahrinSkel - World Builder2003-10-25 21:51:00.0
Right now each body location does take separate hits and have it's own armor, and it works essentially as you describe. We haven't split magical damage out into subtypes yet, but the support for doing so is inherent in the system, we're trying to keep it simple while we do initial balancing. On the other hand, we've added a fourth physical damage type, Cleaving, so that swords and axes aren't treated identically.

RE: Gui?
every screenshot ive seen has had exactly the same Gui. for those of you that dont know what a gui is it stands for graphical user interface, it's the screen your interact with, you bring up your inventory screen, you look at your chat box or your portrait, its graphical, you interface with it using mouse+keyboard to do whatever.

anyhow, back to the point. Every screenshot ive seen fo wish has had exactly the same gui, the same chat box on the bottom right of the screen, the same quarter circle with several circular buttons around it in the top right (whatever thats for, i assume inventory button... log button.. etc etc)
and its been the same right down to the fonts and colors of text in the chat box.

I'm just wondering if you are going to be giving us any way of customising our screens. i find that a big part of what makes a game enjoyable is to be able to customise your screen to what makes YOU comfortable, not to what the majority of people asked find comfortable.

My favourite gui has alway been ultima online for the ability to close and reopen windows with ease and reposition them anywhere giving you a complete view of your screen with little blocking it

My second favourite is everuqests custom gui, you can literaly edit your gui in almost anyway you want, what kept it from being the best for me is that no matter how u set it up you still MUST have 9/10 of the diferent windows up in order to play the game with any kind of effectiveness, like how can you talk to people without ur chatbox, how can you be a good mage or wizard without your spellbar,

ill just compact my question down a bit to make it easier to awnser:

Will the development of the game allow the players to alter/arrange their gui in a way that suits them best? or will the gui be fixed to a certain layout+settings that cannot be altered.
MahrinSkel - World Builder2003-10-25 21:45:00.0
An XML based "skinnable" interface is a possibility, but it's definitely further down the road. For this stage of things, requirements are changing so quickly it wouldn't work very well, and it would delay more critical development.

RE: Forseen problem with Masterlevels, Will you be able to change paths ??
I can already see this is nothing more then RA and Skillines mixed. Now the issue I forsee happening is what if you choose a path and it ends up being the gimpiest crap ever. Its not like were fortold what a pathline holds for us only a brief description. So I gotta wonder what if I go down a path and say MAN this really sux and is nothing like the description says. Are we going to have a way to change paths later on ??

The main reason is mythic is releasing no information. Im easily reminded of their book that didnt even explain stats right. Or how they changed ablities and nerfed things. Well we all know some of these are going to be OMG that is overpowered, and mythic didnt forsee us using in it a way that we managed to and they are going to nerf it. So bassically again for the third time here , Will we be able to change paths since your not releasing no information on what a path holds. ( AKA A major downfall to not supplying us information like this)
