15:20.34 | morgoth1145 | .here |
15:20.35 | morgothBotPy | Welcome back, morgoth1145. |
15:20.52 | morgoth1145 | SignpostMarv: Is there any chance that you'd be able to finish uploading SCC images? |
15:21.11 | SignpostMarv | SCC? |
15:24.53 | morgoth1145 | They're an image set on the wiki that never was fully uploaded |
15:25.05 | morgoth1145 | no idea what SCC stands for |
15:25.29 | morgoth1145 | but it was the ability images, such as SCCBite5 |
15:27.12 | SignpostMarv | I don't believe I have them on my HD, and I uninstalled Spore a couple weeks ago :P |
15:30.01 | SignpostMarv | needed to make space to defrag |
15:34.46 | morgoth1145 | oh |
15:36.05 | morgoth1145 | Well, if you see Mason, would you mind bugging him to finish uploading them? |
15:36.09 | morgoth1145 | he started it |
15:40.37 | SignpostMarv | talk page thing ? |
15:40.56 | morgoth1145 | right...he has a talk page... |
15:40.59 | morgoth1145 | *idiot* |
15:45.16 | SignpostMarv | passes morgoth some coffee |
15:47.46 | morgoth1145 | I hate coffee |
15:48.08 | SignpostMarv | passes morgoth some mountain due |
15:48.10 | SignpostMarv | dew* |
15:48.28 | morgoth1145 | I hate carbonated crap |
15:48.52 | SignpostMarv | passes morgoth some of whatever he needs to get his brain into gear |
15:49.09 | morgoth1145 | don't actually need anything, I'm just distracted |
15:49.25 | SignpostMarv | oh ? |
15:50.29 | morgoth1145 | FlyFF |
15:50.33 | SignpostMarv | heh |
15:50.37 | SignpostMarv | haven't played that in a while |
15:50.53 | morgoth1145 | Free Realms reminded me of it |
15:51.02 | morgoth1145 | which server? (And I hadn't played in at least 1.5 years) |
15:51.21 | SignpostMarv | no idea. |
15:51.27 | morgoth1145 | (also didn't get very far the first time. Only level 23?) |
15:51.32 | morgoth1145 | now I'm level 49 |
15:51.46 | SignpostMarv | is currently hacking Infiniminer |
15:52.12 | morgoth1145 | not heard of that |
15:52.24 | SignpostMarv | http://www.zachtronicsindustries.com/pivot/entry.php?id=82 |
15:54.31 | SignpostMarv | its open source :) |
15:57.15 | morgoth1145 | nice |
15:57.36 | morgoth1145 | looking at an experience table for FlyFF, looks like I've gotten 100 times the experience I got last time |
15:57.52 | morgoth1145 | granted, it's only 10 times more work, likely |
15:57.55 | morgoth1145 | but anyway |
15:58.56 | morgoth1145 | that looks rather...blocky...is it any good? |
15:59.08 | SignpostMarv | yup |
15:59.33 | morgoth1145 | how? |
16:00.55 | SignpostMarv | don't judge a book by its cover |
16:01.26 | morgoth1145 | eh, you could explain it |
16:01.41 | morgoth1145 | (that was the intention) |
16:01.55 | SignpostMarv | eh, you could play it and avoid any crappy explanations |
16:01.57 | SignpostMarv | :P |
16:02.15 | SignpostMarv | well the basic gameplay premise is to go mine for stuff then bring it to the surface |
16:02.24 | SignpostMarv | you can mine ore, gold & diamonds |
16:02.48 | SignpostMarv | gold & diamonds need to be brought to the surface to cash them in |
16:02.58 | morgoth1145 | I could go play it, but I'm busy playing FlyFF |
16:03.14 | SignpostMarv | each class can only carry so much ore |
16:03.15 | SignpostMarv | brb |
16:03.38 | morgoth1145 | so it's an mmo, but you mine instead of fight monsters? |
16:03.54 | SignpostMarv | not exactly an mmo |
16:04.03 | SignpostMarv | more just a mo |
16:04.11 | morgoth1145 | morpg? |
16:04.24 | morgoth1145 | oo, more pg |
16:04.25 | morgoth1145 | ducks |
16:04.26 | SignpostMarv | explains moar |
16:05.00 | SignpostMarv | stuff can be built anywhere in the map, except in empty space (needs to be built against another block) or on lava |
16:05.16 | SignpostMarv | various block types cost different ammounts of ore to build |
16:05.35 | SignpostMarv | engineers can build all block types (except for solid blocks of the opposing team's color) |
16:05.47 | SignpostMarv | sappers can build TNT |
16:06.22 | SignpostMarv | everything except banks, gold, diamond and metal can be blown up |
16:06.44 | SignpostMarv | prospectors have a radar which can find gold & diamonds |
16:06.58 | SignpostMarv | so one strategy would be to send a prospector to find the start of a gold vein, |
16:07.00 | SignpostMarv | plant a beacon |
16:07.12 | SignpostMarv | head to the surface, switch to a sapper, |
16:07.17 | morgoth1145 | so there's also a slight rts element? |
16:07.25 | SignpostMarv | then go plant some TNT around the start of the gold vein |
16:07.27 | SignpostMarv | then, |
16:07.32 | morgoth1145 | (with the teams) |
16:07.40 | SignpostMarv | once the vein is revealed, switch to a miner |
16:07.48 | SignpostMarv | since miners can carry more gold/diamonds than anyone |
16:08.11 | SignpostMarv | PVP strategies include: |
16:08.43 | SignpostMarv | * blowing up walkways/bridges that the opposing team uses to access an area |
16:08.58 | SignpostMarv | * flooding tunnels & shafts with lava |
16:09.17 | SignpostMarv | * blowing up the opposing team directly |
16:09.24 | SignpostMarv | the latter two are generally seen as griefing |
16:09.44 | SignpostMarv | p.s. |
16:09.48 | SignpostMarv | #infiniminer |
16:09.49 | SignpostMarv | :-P |
16:10.39 | morgoth1145 | so light on the rts elements |
16:11.04 | morgoth1145 | ('cause the latter two seem much more effective from an rts standpoint.) |
16:11.08 | morgoth1145 | I might look into it |
16:11.13 | morgoth1145 | if so, which team are you on? |
16:14.20 | morgoth1145 | *poke* |
16:15.53 | SignpostMarv | well when I join a server, I join whichever team has the fewest players |
16:15.56 | SignpostMarv | but I tend to favor blue |
16:16.02 | SignpostMarv | you can run your own server btw |
16:16.31 | morgoth1145 | okay, which server do you tend to frequent... |
16:17.13 | SignpostMarv | whichever ones aren't flagged for sandbox mode |
16:17.41 | SignpostMarv | ^sandbox mode = doesn't cost anything to build, server doesn't auto-reset when a pre-determined amount of ore has been won |
16:17.43 | morgoth1145 | you don't have set patterns, do you? |
16:17.46 | SignpostMarv | nope |
16:18.15 | SignpostMarv | there's no account creation process, |
16:18.25 | SignpostMarv | so you can just jump in and drop out of games at random |
16:19.39 | morgoth1145 | ah |
16:20.04 | morgoth1145 | ooc, when you did FlyFF, what class did you go for? |
16:20.24 | SignpostMarv | i forgets. remind me what they are ? |
16:20.53 | morgoth1145 | start as vagrant, first jobs are assist, mage, merc, and acrobat |
16:21.32 | morgoth1145 | second level jobs are billposter and ringmaster for assist, elementor and psykeeper for mage, blade and knight for merc, and jester or ranger for acro |
16:21.38 | SignpostMarv | merc & acrobat |
16:21.45 | SignpostMarv | never got to 2nd level job |
16:22.32 | morgoth1145 | yeah, I'm working on that one |
16:22.42 | morgoth1145 | my first one ever was merc, but this time around I'm going assist |
16:22.45 | morgoth1145 | with an acro alt |
16:23.49 | morgoth1145 | surprisingly they don't delete characters |
16:24.23 | morgoth1145 | I went to a different server, thinking that I'd have to start over again no matter. Then one day I decided to check other servers, and happened upon my old characters |
