Q&A towards staff / server

[xHarlequinx]

Can we get quests every week or two weeks?

Events, quests and so forth should happen on a weekly base. I'm back to game mode, but some staff members still struggle with RL duties. Anyhow from September ->, the target is to have something every week.

I would rather see way more latent quests littered around the world with some sort of cohesive story lines as opposed to random one-off quests.

Is a new siege system on the 2do list?

If yes, which one?
If no, pick one.

will the adventurer system suffer further modifications, or it's going to stay as it is in terms of prices to buy items and amount of tickets you get as reward?

Suffer further modifications? The adventurer system could use a nearly full rework IMO.

Seeing as we have a dedicated server, is it possible to setup a UOAutomap server there and also a voice chat server (of some sort)? Without any extra cost that is.

well, i'd prefer that, i just doubt it'll come so i asked for "further modifications" only

i think there's little point there right now. i think you can use it as a bonus of getting this quest when you were already going to hunt that dungeon with your group anyway. and then after a few hunts you can get to buy one of those unique things, but that's it. for people who are trying to get big amounts of tickets, after the change (it was a good change, i didn't think the way before should be "legal") it's just annoying

Okay, think we've missed a few Q's...

Random idea here. Should there be blue events and red events in roughly even numbers? AoE is way out of control as it is.

Sure, why not. Also planning newbie and merchant quests.

Is there a time table for Wille to have time to script? Will there be other options(people) looked at as far as 'scriptors' go? I'm wondering if we have a time table of sorts, so we can at least be excited about the possibilities.

Wille should be back in business by the end of this month. As for other people, we're discussing about it.

What's the final answer on the PvP rules? I realize our test run of a month was in a down period, so was it inconclusive? Without us going too far into it, is there any major changes everyone should know?

Should make some sum up out of it. Ups and downs, but eventually it's a project of Monad - so he can handle that.

No.

Wille will revise the whole adv. system, but there's no real priority on it. Not a diablo 3-like launch, but still on paper level.

I'll check with Irming.

UOAM server will be set up in a few days.

Public map sounds great, we had one back in Feb-May 2011. Not sure who hosted it.

Great addition. +1

[Boris]

It's a server, so it can be used for any purposes (guilds, religion, whatever...).

Not completely sure about voice programs (TS, Ventrilo) as they eat a lot of bandwith. Can be tested at some point, but lets see how much UOAM firstly does to the server - as even that can be heavy.
