just wanting to let you know :)
So it is Four on Friday..

"What is the difference between the old Zoo point decay rate and the new one?"

Mesanna checked this one out for me:

"The decay rate used to be 3% every 24 hours. We have lowered it to 1% every 48 hours."

--

"Is there going to be a Spring Cleaning Phase 3?"

Yes! The next publish will have many more items that can be turned in for points - including many more seasonal gift items - and new sets of reward armor as well!

--

"Why do I have to spend twice the points to get house deco items in both directions?"

This was obviously not the ideal solution, and will be fixed in Publish 54 - players getting the house deco items will get a deed that allows you to choose which way the item faces, and existing items can be re-deeded and re-placed to get the same option.

--

"How long are the Spring Cleaning turn-ins going to be available?"

We don't have a firm date for the end of their availability, but Spring Cleaning will not last forever - at this point we're projecting the end of the event in approximately August. We'll give you plenty of notice, but I encourage everyone not to wait too long!

(Note: All dates are speculative and subject to change, polymorphing, and rising creeks. You have been warned.)

I guess we should sit back and hope that this means that the awful "That cannot be seen" mess is set to be fixed as part of this:

What's To Come:

Publish 54 is coming along - it'll include Phase 3 of Spring Cleaning (which will include the mouse hole and the Sherry the Mouse statue improvements,) a ton of bug fixes, and the next set of event stuff!
Someone reported that they think the problem is relative to the player position not the pets, and I've seen that the error message can be generated this way.

Observation so far is showing me that:

- - if the pet cannot see the target, regardless of whether or not you can, you will not see the message and the pet will not respond to the 'all kill' command. Nothing happens at all, basically. That's probably what was happening in my screenshot with Barracoon.

- - if the pet specifically can see the target but you can't, you get the "That cannot be seen" message. That was probably happening in my screenshots with the Hell Hound and the Rat Mage.

Those relationships are straightforward to see if you have dungeons with rooms that you can step out of and close the doors on, leaving the pet inside with the monsters, and then swapping positions around, and so on.

That was the most awful FoF I can recall.

Like bad sex, but only worse.

Really, I am stting here wondering what I was hoping to see to begin with. Seems like an automated reply anymore.

BTW Jeremy...why no answer on any of the crafting issues? Like the recent changes to runic crafted artifacts, or else people missing runic recipes.

*sigh*

Apart from being insulted by her not mentioning the lack of appearance of the "strangers," covered adequately in another thread, I liked this FoF.

ARRG more new about new items, how bout we get to the War, its been along time in UO since I felt apart of it.


and how did the playguide ever get so out of date? you could have hired a UO gamer and paid him in a free subscripiton and it would have been updated on the spot as needed

EA in my mind has never been a developer more than a distributer and I think UO has show us why.:gee:

Although I wonder if the big time stock holders play computer games at all?

Well alot of good info on FOF for what ppl asked though, I just think we are asking the wrong Qs



lol oh well ill be on Wakoku till we get some info on real event
