  1. They woulda been there all night trying to judge that.

    It was definitely better to do it randomly. It was a giveaway, not a contest.

    I'll just buy it on the 23rd it looks like.

    In that case, they need to make a few pictures, and have only one of them have real codes. Upload them all at once, and then toss out the link to the real one. That way, watching for the link becomes the best bet to get what you're after.
    that folder is forbidden...
  3. ya i agre that alot of people were just sitting waiting with the refresh button..

    I honestly think i would have gotten one if i didn't alt tab to Freem to say something. I also had the serial code screen up and ready, and I type about 70 wpm no errors.

    *shakes fist*

    Which forum are they going to post the codes on when they post 'em in the forums?
  4. FB went up.. i typed in every one with a "this code has already been used"

    All gone within the first 3 minutes. >.<

    That's what I get for alt tabing for 1 minute to write something on Freem chat.

    *sigh*

  6. It seems to me that most savage types of characters would wear things of similar nature: loin clothes, belt bra types for females, dangly bone arm bracers or wrist/ankle bracers with dangling bones. ALso bead lookin stuff.

    I'm reminded of the Wild Nacatl from Magic the Gathering.


    In fact I think I'm going to make this character with dual blades using those short daggers. It'd be awesome if later on down the road we get this kind of garb.

    Notice how the loin cloth is actually very similar on the back side to the hip-capes the widows have, it should be rather easy to manipulate to form this.

    Definatly not... I love the crouch emote.

    instead just do the savage emote and wait for it. :P

    or add a "prowl" emote or something with just that end stance.. but don't change existing emotes that work great.
  8. The heads seem to be missing a part of the mesh.. it's most noticeable on the huge bodies where the wolf head will disappear into the back and then come back out. It makes it look like a "high collar" is being worn. I hope this will be smoothed out or i'll have to use wolf heads on female only >.<
  9. I have never used monster legs in the "small" variant..

    Can we please get both small and large variants. Thx.
  10. Chicken feet? :P

    oh, talons.. right on. nm ^_^
  11. erm.

    I can't find GR in the online store anywhere.. or the complete. I want the complete for the extra costumes and I want to make sure I get it in time for double exp.. is there going to be a webpage update soon or announcement or something so we can buy it?

    Additional Notes:


    [/ QUOTE ]

    We have a 50 mil + base of which I am currently the owner. As of now I have logged countless hours to make it the perfect home away from home or get-together place for the SG. We have parties in the park, we hang out in the dojo.. or the tiki bar..

    The base itself is currently on the second to largest base size to allow for maximum attractions. Even the largest rooms possible have details down to the bookshelves. We love our base. That being said, the changes in this patch are one of the things I'm looking forward too most, second to shields.

    As for your questions let me address them in order:
    1)
    repricing will have no effect on us at the moment, since we have currently purchased just about everything we wanted for our dream home. However, I also have alternate SG's on other servers which float at about 5 mil prest and have "starter" bases. The repricing will give me the freedom to expreiment with much cooler ideas on those bases as well as make those bases much more entertaining for people that reside on those servers perminently.

    2) even though we have everything we need in the base, the option for actually using it for pvp (never before in our minds) has now become an actual possibility. We plan to go ROOM BY ROOM, dismantling and rebuilding just as it is with the new system in order to make back the prestige to spend on defense items. We are well aware of the immense project this will be, but i have 2 very competant helpers on the restoration. As for my other "younger" SG's, they will of course have their bases completely erased and started from scratch.

    3) we estimate (for our own sanity) about a room per day, spending about 2-3 hours on each to make sure all the details go back in. The base itself has about.. uh.. lots, enough to fit the largest plotsize. The alternate SG's will probably take whatever it would take to start from scratch and build something cool.

    4) I guess the renovation would be handier if it was done automatically, but I'm certainly willing to accept that as a minor inconvenience. The changes are worth it by far. These changes will make the joy that us large SG's have found in base editing a reality for anyone. I was able to build a rather nice tier1 base on the 3rd plot size with lots of cool features, and all the necessities for about 2 mil. Very attainable. I'm extremely happy with the changes and what it means for enthusiastic builders out there.

    5) Long term, it means any prestige our main sg makes, will be useless. There is no base that we could make for that much prestige beyond utter rediculous amounts of defense items. Long term for bran new SG's .. awesome! They can start building facinating bases right away... but they also don't have huge downtime while members "grind prestige". They will always have renovations for until they reach their dream house, and meet their tier control/power goals and/or pvp goals. That being said i don't see it as a problem really for the larger base either, since we would never have to worry about rent.

    Base Salvage/Exchange
    1)
    The one thing that bothers me here, is that we have SO MUCH salvage in our bases that we can use to build any number of things, at any time. But with such small amounts of invention salvage storage, i wonder how easy it will be to keep a healthy stock. People are busy using that stuff for inventions.. Nobody will want to deposit any. And any deposited will likely be stolen to sell on the BM or to use for their inventions. I don't think we would have much issues with that, but if it were to be used by SG administration for base purposes,.. you'd have to restrict storage use.. which also hinders inspiration storage and enhancement storages.. which we like to have open. Thus the base/invention storage becomes useless in the base. I'm not quite sure there's a way to fix that, unless you can restrict invention storage, seperate from enhancement/inspiration storages. But again, I feel that it's still a welcome change, from the things that I saw it would be much better the new system. I would much rather find one of those silly page of Mallus Mundi (sp) than farm/buy enough salvage to create 10 foci. I think as long as you keep it down to 1 or two peices of salvage per kind needed (more types, but 1 or 2 of each salvage), then all you have to do is use more rare salvage for things that are more important instead of increasing the number of foci to 38 or whatever. I like this much more.

    Sorry, think I rambled there... on to...
    2)
    Positive; I feel that it will be much easier to build certain items for your base if you want them, instead of working for a week at whatever, just to be able to build it. It encourages base building. I like it.

    3) I already built an SG with the prestige grant on Test server, and I have to say I'm used to it already. I feel it's a great improvement, other than the concerns i have about salvage storage mentioned above. I welcome the changes and I'm grinning with anticipation.

    4) The major side effect will be people hoarding their old base salvage, simply because they can hold more of it. When that wears away, another side affect I see on the horizon is that people will stop using storage salvage. Donations will usually be given to base editors for them to use and/or store in their personal storage vault. OR most SG's will begin denying storage access until proven worthy of a noteable range in the SG. Which I feel hinders the other storage racks, as mentioned before, but again, I have no answer for that.

    [b]5)[b] I'm a villain, if i see a security problem, I kill 'em. We bury them (and the dog) in our park.

    end of line.
