What about the Aeka bots, does this mean that Aeka is opening up or what????

Also note for frank, look at the Labtech in Old Aquaduct, doesn't he look familiar at all to any of you??? Hint hint to those who think Frank was minor and didn't read the original zOMG manga release.

Honestly, why give out a little spoiler in the middle of a totally different discussion ?

Are you excited you found that out or something ? Must be, seeing as you're stating the obvious around randomly.

I meant because in Quixter's post he talked about Aeka bots and something called Hypernet. I was curious because I have no clue if that means yes or no.

It basically equates to "Hint nodes" in other games.
So, no, Aekea isn't opening.

I'm miffed, though not surprised, that Safari and Chrome aren't getting the updates. It also makes me nervous that there might be problems for mac users like myself when it comes to voice chat.

I guess I don't mind using Firefox for zOMG while still using Safari for everything else if I want to use voice chat. That is, as long as the download for voice chat works on Firefox for mac. gonk

Can we use them if we're already far into the game?

Okay, going to throw my two bits into the ring. *toss*

I'm not excited about this update. I remember the sewers, and was only able to get out after they were instanced. (Great server kill of the '08ers, anyone?) I couldn't get back in, because Elizabeth NEVER had a word bubble. Now that the devs are bringing back the TRAINing sequence (sortof), I think they are gypping the newbies who actually WANT to play out of their experience of those sewers. If going in to learn more about the game is optional, who do they think will actually do it? (I will be once they end Open Beta, because I want to play the beginning with my Mule, but I digress.)

Also, I agree with many that the addition of VOIP will likely be a hindrance. Those of us in College dorm rooms, for example, won't be able to chat when our roommates or others are sleeping. I also share the concern that those of us without VOIP (especially the Mac users) won't be included in crews.

(new crew panel, though? Sounds great. Can't wait for it to be smaller, but still. I expand my window.)

Rings


Strike (Strike with sword. Long ranged)
Bolt (Strike with 10,000 voltage thunder. EXTREMELY ranged)
Frost Bite (Freeze all enemys around you for 5 seconds. Crowd control close combat)
Exuberant (Diagnose heals health, well exuberant gets you more stamina)
Full Throttle (Kind like bandage, but it gets you back stamina)
Diary(Kinda like meat, but it gets you extra stamina)
Shock Wave (A huge wave will take over the whole area and dominate all enemy's with great damage, Full Field)

And that's all for now!

As far as I know, anyway, yes.
I see no reason why you wouldn't be able to.
You get orbs and gold the first time you use them, too.

Hey Zinrius!

On topic: I must say, I am definitely looking forward to the updates.

[Link - Hero of Time -Link]

With all the different types of rings, they should have different types of elements, and so should enemy's! And also, they REEAALLY NEED to let us challenge each other, and fight each other with our rings! So the challenge, the ease, and the fun can be enhanced! xD'

THE zOMG!! GAME IDEA (Notice I put 2 exclamation marks.... ZOMG 2!!!


zOMG!! Dusk at Day (The night enemy's take over ALL OF GAIA at day, and it's up to you to save Barton, Durem, Aekea, AND Gambino! xD

[Death2Life xD]

I hope these updates are what it actually says. Can't wait.

[Enigma Flux]

Zack are these just hopeful Ideas of your own that you wish would be in game or do you know something?

[SykoCaster]

I like the rage and null powerups.
There should also be a Ghi refiller.

[Tristan Crisscoula]

On the topic of the whole VOIP and voice font stuffs. None of it really bugs me, because odds are I'm not going to use any of it, I'm way too shy. xD I'd rather see the fonts be a higher price, but a permanent thing, but.. it's not really something I feel strongly about. *shrugs*


On the 2-minute tutorial: NOOOOO GOD WHY. D ;

What I want to see is the return of a long, informative introduction into the game. Force the tutorials on the newbs, yes. However, at the very beginning, there could be like.. a really comprehensive quiz that if you could pass it, you'd get to skip everything. That way people who already know how to play competently could start on a new account without having to go through all of that again. Of course, the instant you got a single question wrong, Frank would exclaim LRN2PLAY and lock you in the sewers until you knew wtf you were doing. :'D

I'm sure websites would spring up with all the right answers to the questions, but.. hopefully the newbs too lazy to do the tutorial would also be too lazy for a good old google search. =X


As for ring staggering:

It wouldn't bother me if they were staggered intelligently. For example, you might actually see a lot less people running SADs if the most of the earlier ring grants in the game only let you choose buffs or stat changers or heals. I'm sure people would b***h about that, but then at least you'd (hopefully) have less people whining about bosses being too hard when their strategy is to smash their faces against the keyboard. >_>;
