i just read the descripsion and ill say my thoughts:

i hate MMORPGs and ORPGs. they are repetitive, the gameplay is getting boring fast and they are all exatcly the same.
from you descripsion of the map i'm pretty impressed of how you want to be like to real MMOs with the attachemnts and mounts and stuff (but it still sucks).
you should remember that this is the wc3 engine and its not built for an MMO, but instead you can take advantage to what it's good at doing and shuffle the gameplay a bit to make it more unique.

make players to start as a nameless unit in an army and as they advance in ranks and levels they will gain control over thier own troops and commanders.
or think of something diffrent yourself.

you can put alot of effort into making glove attachments, mounts and all the pretty stuff around, but if the end of the day the gameplay is what keeps the player coming.

... A BETA may be highly unlikely. None of us have direct instructions and, well, we have an absent project lead. My apologies and we are working hard to restore order to the team to continue Everwood's development.

Development on Everwood has kinda stopped lately, as I just don't have the time to "lead" the team at the moment, and none of the other members really wants to take over. If we just was to find a new coder I could probably give some instructions on what should be done, but so far we've not been lucky finding one.

Btw, what did you write? I never read it, which means it must've been deleted pretty fast, as I check this thread very often.

I'll summarize if for you:
You said you hated RPGs and that even if Everwood were to revolutionize Wc3 RPGs, they are still boring, yada yada yada. :thumbs_down:

So I thought it was really mean and I reported it.

and i think that i also said something about having nice graphics and attachments and mounts wont make the ORPGs more fun.

anyway, thank you for being a loyal and caring citizen of the hive and reporting the authoritys about the evils of criminals like me.

It will. You don't like RPG's but some people really do!

How's the strike of 1.24 on this map?

We have not been affected in the slightest.

And no, it will not be possible as from what I recall, the map has no 'proper' questlines yet. And lacks quite a few of the essentials to keep you lot hungering for more.

I will begin a few smaller questlines as well as work on the heroes (... =D).

I dont like ORPGs either, but I gotta admit that you guys have been doing a hell of a job and that this looks really cool and even I will probably never play it ( Well, I will probably test it once I suppose ) I still respect the work you have put in this project.

So, good luck and everything.

Really cool map. And I sorta have a idea how you made your mount system. The hero already has a animation when hes on the mount so you guys used that animation, raised him up so he looks like hes on the creature, then you move him instantly to the certian location of the mount. Goodluck on the project anyway.

Not that I know the real answer (think I maybe do but won't say it here anyway) but I think you're pretty wrong.:p

Only problem is that no one can upload that on the hive as a system cause every mount would need different cordinates and height.
