New Content.
Hey Guys! I know that we just did an auction with maybe three or four new items. But there is so much stuff OSI has that we don't I was wondering if anyone knew anything about that, even getting Kingdom Reborn graphics would be sufficient. Or some new dungeons. I know Rock was just released, but maybe some features from OSI, like Elves and Gargoyles, or something. Just something Huma wanted me to post so...
Re: New Content.
Most likely no on the KR or even SA or HS. Would require updating his server, Then making sure that items out there added in do not conflict with item ID numbers used in any of those, etc etc. map sizes are increased on those as well for tram and fel for more sea i think? could also make problems *uncertain* with moving all the stuff here that is done and saved. So yeah, Most likely no on the updating of those. What i got from when i had asked colibri before. But they did say something not too long ago about adding new content ithink items mobs and areas. So Until that happens, who knows!
Re: New Content.
it would be seriously hard to change. plus, the testing, bug hunting etc... also don't even know if runuo1.0.0 would be able to handle the new graphics, animation and everything. ah well. i love this shard as it is

Re: New Content.
Don't get me wrong I love the shard to but the gap between new players and Epic players is so diverse that some of the new players don't stay cause that gap is so big. Also thats why a few in between players are getting bored too. I mean bedlam, Thats hard stuff. But almost everyone who can do it. Just loves it. I guess it was just an Idea.
Re: New Content.
No offense to the OP, but these new content topics are getting kind of old.
While the new expansions would be really nice, my understanding is they would have to upgrade to the new version of runUO, and that means ALL of that custom stuff would have to be re-done. Basically re-building the whole shard. While the many multiples of hours project is in theory possible, I don't think that fits into +Colibri's current life plans. And you know what I can accept that, How many people have the time and dedication to build a shard? How many people would then find the time to re-build it 6 years later. Other player run servers run very close to the official ones, so its easier for them to upgrade. UOEX is custom city, locks us in.
If I recall correctly, i did see a post by +Nyx talking awhile back about the possibility of new lands, items etr. If they are talking about a custom map, well I've seen shards with custom maps that suck, and one with a map that was amazing. From what I've seen, IF +N and +V are working on a custom map, i believe they could do a fantastic job! And it would be a huge boost for the shard as well.
Either way, the Staff know we want a new map to explore, I think we should leave it at that for awhile
Just my 2 cents
Thanks

Re: New Content.
New content doesn't have to be completely new. Take the Orc caves quest for example. Simple well done, and rewarding. However, I do believe it was ment for the newer players to enjoy.
That being said, new quests are always appealing. New monsters with old skins, just tweaked to be more difficult. (I am not talking about new monsters that live up to the epic players standard, however they could, I really mean something better then the orginal, might be tied to a specific quest, and/or might be required for a new form of material, which fills in a quest; adds to the world of crafting, or grants a new title after you kill 1000 of them.
New, like I said, doesnt have to be WoW content epic, it just has to be play able, rewarding, and NEW.

Criticism is good because it improves upon what came before, and solidifies the strongest of foundations.
