Update 7, Patch 1 - Preview Live on Lamannia

[Natashaelle]

Just ran around a little bit, and away from the nasty airship mobs !! YIKES !!

No probs creating a vet, I didn't test grotto, and running round town seemed to go OK -- instance loading seems a tiny tiny teensy bit laggy, like 1-2 seconds after the blue bar fills, but it's hardly even worth mentioning it... is prolly just that specific UI rather than the game as such.

I don't know if half-elf women look a smidgeon less like plastic barbie dolls, if it's just my imagination, or I'm just getting used to them ? no idea !!

Vet creation: no problems. seems like everything is back to normal and even a little quicker on loading onto the boat.

Grotto: did not see any problems there but it was a little on the laggy side. Nothing major but still noticeable during audible dialogue.

Running around town and onto to airship, no lag on loading screens and I didn't get booted which happens from time to time on live servers.

• Creating a new character as a Vet (on the boat)

No issues here.

• Creating a new character and running through the Groto.

Did not have a chance to do this.

• Popping into an airship (I'll be opening up a level 100 guild with a Stormglory Tempest; look for an LFM).

A lot of fun! And no issues to boot.

• Generally going from public to private instance (town to quest; quest to town).

Everything seemed smooth and normal.

I had no problem creating a vet character and getting to stormreach as lvl 4.

I also created a new lvl 1 and ran grotto without problems either. What was the problem that people were seeing?

I don't think "some issues" is what Thoon was looking for. Could you elaborate a bit?

[*]Creating a new character as a Vet (on the boat)

Seemed normal, did load faster (do to less people maybe). Created 2 different characters and class.

Didn't see LFM but its a different time than suggested.

Seemed normal, did load faster (do to less people maybe). Did this on 3 of the 4 characters created.

TRed characters and skip to level 4 in 7.1? Awesome!

My personal catch will be for Pale Master. It seems that the Lich and Wraith Form can be dispelled while the toggle stay on. Same thing for Beholders who dispelled all undead forms while the toggle still say you're in undead form.

Thanks very much for the small event for testing on the Airship, was a good moment

which was already explained during the event and the posts above.

I must say I had a blast on the Airship, even with my innefectual Level 4 Pewpewpew. Also thank you to the Almighty Thoon for allowing some of us mere mortals to join their Guild.


No issues creating vet character

No issues going to the Grotto

Yea I got some screenies of the "fray" I'd post em, if Thoon don't mind... but I don't wanna incur the wrath of the "Almighty Thoon" for posting pics of his AWESOMNESS

[Coldin]

No issues here loading between instances or the airship. It was pretty fun doing battle on the airship.

[Thoon]

Thank you to everyone who was able to join in and help out. We collected the data we needed.

And, any pictures taken on that Stormglory airship should stay on that Stormglory airship

[Thoon]

Oh, and we are going through a last round of edits on those preview release notes. I'll let you know when they are up.

[MrkGrismer]

Fighting on the ship was a blast.

This statement both intrigues and frightens me.

I haven't had time for Lamannia and as a Premium account I'm not sure if the experience would be good, but I am anxiously looking forward to reading the release notes to find out what the above (and other things here) are all about

Just the devs having a bit of fun.

I swear Thoon was trying to sneak kill me a few times though.

I see that Half-Elves haven't received any beauty treatment yet. They are so ugly almost no one will play them on the live servers. Yes, there are threads to back up that statement.
