level 14?

[rattler]

now z...all your stuff looks great...but what ever happened to lvl 14? i keep seeing things saying thats it is almost finished but it never happens...i know your doing all this alone and it might be smart to stick with one part til its complete...that way it keeps us interested...im not alone in this...i to have noticed a drop in the server popularity as of late..and it has to do with several things...one is people not haveing time to play and two not being anything new to explore the sign always that new areas are opening up soon but it has said that for months now...and with nothing new comes the lack of players...i know of several that have moved to other servers because of this last reason. now when new things or areas open up the increase of players might get better...im not trying to make you mad but that is how alot of us feel at this point.

thanks for your time

Lvl 14 is done!! You've seen it [img]smile.gif[/img] I know i've been busy, but hang with me. Have faith! I am just trying to get this new hak done, because a LOT of it is vital to the levels not yet done. (Muriel, and others).

Since tilesets are easy, this cuts time down. But don't worry, I'll maybe go ahead and open 14 and some other stuff early, and when the hak is done, just update it I guess.. I know what you're saying, and I agree [img]smile.gif[/img]

Don't worry, when you see what I have in store, you will see that all this time is VERY well worth it [img]smile.gif[/img] Then you can bust muriel's ass too!

Rattler man it is only one guy and there have been heaps of new areas added (i.e new level 13 quests and secret area new parts of the gauntlet, new areas off level 4. Just because all of these areas arn't a new level and arn't for your level 40 characters ( I know that you want areas for your level 40s but give it some time man) doesn't take away from the time needed to make them. A

Are you just going to blast through level 14 when released and then ask about level 15 ? Do you know how much time it takes to make these new areas with the quality that Z puts in ??

This place is not about the new areas added or new quests. Sure they are nice but man its about the experence and just having fun with some friends instead of blasting through all the levels as quickly as possible. Sorry if I sound rude but I do get sick of hearing people complain about wanting new levels online and I think many of them don't realise the time and effort that Dan puts into this mod. He doesn't get paid to make this mod. he doesn't have any help. he puts a LOT of his time and money in to this place. If you were paying for the mod then you can say what you have said but man Dan still needs to put food on the table and live his life before NWN comes into play. Dan works his arse off on this mod and it does show. He is not going to release an area before its perfect.

Good point TDC, but you forgot to mention that Z also runs this website, and in case no one has noticed lately, there is a lot more to it than just the message boards. Patience grasshopper/s, this is a work in progress, and we all know that. At one time, I could say I'd seen everything there was to see in Undermountain, but that time is not now...My time is limited as well, and sometimes I've only got an hour to get down the well, or the sewer, depending on what char I want to run. Can you honestly say that you have seen everything there is to see?

I think Ziroc's reaction said all, guys, don't bust his ass for asking questions. If Ziroc would dislike his attitude, it would be his right and his right only to say something about it, wouldn't he?

*puts down a quarter of Canadian money*

well, I support all the work that Ziroc has put forth thus far. I can afford to wait for Level Fourteen to be completed and buffed to purehearted shinyness. I have yet to run a single character through every single section of this game on a single run or even a connected series of runs. To be honest, I STILL avoid Level Ten with my level 40 character because I find it far too difficult to do it alone. Some of us here may be impatient, but others are willing and able to stick it out.

I know you are his friends, those who drew out the axes a few posts above. And I know as a fact you also appreciate everything he has done for this site and this module. You may want to keep your cutlasses sheathed though, as the gent at the top was merely stating an opinion, and not intentionally assailing Ziroc and his efforts to date.

The module has been around for what now, two years? Three years? A couple more weeks won't kill me to wait - and it won't slay anyone else. If it does burn down the ardour of some of the players here, so be it. Limitations of the medium, I say. We aren't actually giving Ziroc a salary for anything we have here (a point made by another previously), so whatever we get is through his own sweat and labour. The fact that it is so good is a tribute to his own hard work. If those people others know refuse to accept the fact he has to have time for himself, then mayhaps they have never tried running a game - online or offline. Perhaps it is time they should, and then see how they view this world that Ziroc has created and we all populate.

3 years! Wow! [img]smile.gif[/img] Hey, people can never say I don't stick with something!

I'm working on 14 as I type!! (Dungeon is done, just adding baddies, and placeables, and all that. Should be done very soon!! It's a different type of dungeon than the others kinda. Its a mega dungeon too. (BIG!)

Also in the works (The Trollmoors Swamp)!!

Ah, its always good to know that there are people who really want to play. I'm not really bothered about leel 14 just yet...i haven't even passed level 3, except for the time i got teleported to level 11 = chain reaction death.

Doesn't anyone use the pvp arena? Kill each other for fun! make "bets" etc...all you need is a little imagination and that, I believe can take you a long way.

AAAAAaHHHHHH, the trollmoors swamp trolls are bad enough visiting their cousins in troll bark.... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Man I have heard some bad stories about the Trollmoors. I will be sure to bring some fire weapons.
