Those buttons are for free fire melee too, you cant Speed attack with the run forward button.
#10400133705 12/15/2005 22:01:11 Re: Ask the devs an MXO question



I think this pic should be considered for the revamped Combat UI since crowding the hotbar with standard attacks is not effecient... at all  And I think it could fit inside screens ser at 800x600 resolution which is generally the smallest resolution people use nowadays.


And people should really read the first post as it underlines all the rules in getting your questions answered.


1) Only the first question after the last dev/admin reply will be considered.

2) If the post contains two questions, only the first question will be answered.


And as an idea for people to ask about in the future:

Is the Spy tree being revamped with CR2.0 as well, or just the Soldier branch?

Yep. bonopi was trying to ask that a few times earlier this evening.

With the addition of email, is there ever going to be a fix for emailing more than one attachment at a time?
#10400133708 12/15/2005 22:29:29 Re: Ask the devs an MXO question
and to answer bonopi's question myself... READ THE DEV JOURNALS!



Yes the spy tree is getting revamped... the details released thusfar
are that there will be changes made to the way people can "pop" a
stealth ability.  Instead of pitting it against a roll like normal
tactics, the longer you stay withing a person's "detection range" the
easier it will be for them to detect you (makes sense right?).  I
know there are other things about it but i can't remember them.



Hey look, i kinda did Rarebits job a bit =P

well one thing I was wanting more clarification on (since what you mentioned is just about all we know so far) is that most every ability in the spy tree will be redone...and could be more elaborated on.

What is their function in combat now...

Ok! I want to ask some questions, of course I wont get first reply but I hope a dev will be nice enough to answer anyways...(Sorry dont live on the forums waiting to poke a dev..xP)


(1st one is a joke) Why hasn't oblivion-knight  been banned yet?!(Now that I got that out of my system)


I'd simply like to know what, if anything, do you Dev's think about the Player Live Events Character thingy I suggested and is there any posability we will ever see interaction with LET characters like we used to? I really miss my conversations with Agent Gray.


A bunch of my faction-mates(Mega City Department of Energy) Think the PLEC was a good idea, hell alot of them said they would sign up for it if it was ever implemented because they want to help bring interaction back up..playing non-movie characters and such.


Well theres my 2 cents, I'll watch the topic and see if I get a reply from you spunky dev's.

I dont have a pic of 800x600 but i know that there isnt even 1 space available that that'd fit in.  I'm sure someone has a pic though.

Have you sent out any applications? SMILEY

I was helped a lot by some message boards where I could read stuff from people who were already in the industry. I met some local game people through that, so I had some contacts, although they didn't end up getting me my job. I spent several years practice, practice, practicing my 3d modeling skills until I had a good enough portfolio to get looked at. A good portfolio is a must, at least for any sort of artist/level design/graphic design position.

And don't take rejection - or even downright ignoring of your applications - personally. Just keep plodding along!

While on the topic of more inventory can we get customizable UI's?  I need more than one hotbar at once.

Feel free to take my questions and use them as your own since I blow at this speed typing game.

Test worlds aren't part of the Mega City at all, so no, they're probably just there to give the idea of placeholders, or liven up the image a bit.

If anyone wants to ask this at some point:

Rarebit you keep mentioning you don't want to increase the clothing items due to the DB management thingy bit data or whatever. But have you considered removing some of the less popular clothing items from the game to allow for better ones to go in? Example, removing the S&M masks which most female RSI players do not want to wear - replacing the buffs on to Bandanas which they do want to wear, and freeing up the item slot for the no longer used S&M masks.


It won't come to that for a while. And we'd have to be very careful about it, because we certainly don't want to take away pieces of clothing that anyone is enjoying.
