What this system does is allow the guilds and their summoned animals in the combat to not be able to attack eachother. Which is why the interguilds alliances was implemented yesterday. So this close relation between the members of a guild, and the rivalry can be exploited to make the game better. This interaction is usually stronger between the member of a guild, which usually have their own private forums, common goals, share guild projects, make war plans, and so on. People are usually nice and helpful, and due to the fact that doing stuff alone is pretty hard, there is a lot of interaction between players. If everything goes according to my expectations, a preliminary test version should be available this comming spring or summer, and it should make it in the client in Q4 of 2007 (about 1 year from now).Īs many of you know, one of the strenghts of EL is the community.

People that do not like SciFi are free not to go on the new planet, in case someone has a problem with that.Īnyway, I will give more details on this as I start implementing it. It will not be possible (or it will be very hard to the point of not being worth it) to bring items from the new planet to the 'standard' EL. The technology will start at an iron age level, then evolve to plasma cannons, space ships and other SciFi stuff. Players will be able to construct buildings, research new technology, etc. Once you are there, you will be able to join an existing city, or help create a new city.Įach city will be totally player built, and there will be a mayor (elected by democratic vote), research advisor, military advisor, commerce advisor, and so on, each elected by democratic vote. You won't be able to take any item with you except for gold coins (maybe a few other items as well).

The dynamic maps will be on a separate planet, where you can get via a portal, after paying a fee. Here is a small sumary on how it's going to be: Since a player housing system requires a dynamic map format, I am thinking to take this a little farther and add to EL most of the Barren Moon features.

Recently, I started to think about how to improve EL beyound just adding new items, and I wanted to add player houses for quite a while now (since this summer). That project didn't work well, with team mebers leaving, and me being too busy with EL. Some of you remember that about 2 years ago, I wanted to make a new MMO, called Barren Moon. But with MMOs, you don't have that luxury, people expect you to always add new content, and you have to maintain the game as well. If EL were a single player game, I'd move on and make another game. Of course, they don't say what that week does, as there is no info about that in the game.ĮL is pretty complete for the time being, there are a few things to add, and some tweakings to do, but overall the game is almost complete. It's a special ingame week, 'Week of festivals'.

It seems that the no resources thing is not a bug. Too bad I can't return the game, it's been the worst 50 USD I ever spent on a video game.

Now I am downloading 150 MB of patches, hope it will be playable after that, but I'm not so sure. There are lots of trees and stuff, but come on, under 1 FPS? Eternal Lands, with the shadows on and a 2048x2048 shadow map never got under 20 FPS on this machine.Īnd the cherry on the cake, there is this bug where your resources will not increase every day (in fact, they just stop increasing at all). On my AMD X2 4800+, GF 7300 GS (256 MB VRAM), 2GB system RAM, there are times when I get 0.5 FPS. Eventually, I had to use a cheat to skip it. I was reading on some forums that tons of people had problems with it. Well, that mission can be pretty much impossible. In the beginning, I was happy with it, until I got to mission 3 in the second campaign.

I started to install it, and after inserting the first CD it asked me to install the 3rd CD, then the 4th one. Having played the first 3 games a lot, I figured out that this game will be at least as good as the previous ones.
