    I like the mounted combat question too. They were really leaning both ways on that -should an archer be able to shoot on a horse? It's plausible in a realistic sense, but it may make the class somewhat overpowered. I'm content with their decision.
    I also like the last question about mages jumping around. Fix that easily - give them very few instant cast spells...
    Thanks Kalanthes!

    Re: Friday Update 4/18

    The description of day and night is even more confusing than before. It seems like they use "day" and "night" as a reference to a zone on the map rather than a time of day. If you stand here, you're in the day/multi-player game. If you stand there, you're in the night/single-player game.

    Doesn't make sense to me, and it's a pretty poor choice of describing things.

    edit: fixed some stuffz

    Tarpan, the day/night cycle you're understanding only goes into effect in the single player part (Tortege Island) where you start out. Once you reach lvl 10 (i think it was) you move out of the single player area and into the regular MMO area. Where the day/night cycle is like any other game. Where you'll be questing and all of a sudden the sun goes down.
    ...I believe...

    I believe your right. That's the way I read the explaination.

    That's somewhat how I understood it, but it seems a rather silly way of saying/doing things. The idea that I can only play single player under the cover of darkness before some level mark is very artificial for no apparent reason. Would have made far more sense to me if they had just dissected it into zones, such as doing single player quests in a city and multiplayer quests in the wilderness, instead of attaching a time of day to things.

    Yea sounds kind of sketchy to me too. We'll see how they pulled it off, it's got to work.
