  • On Wurm you can travel between servers. You could even sail on ships between servers at one point, and that will be introduced again in the future.
  • Originally posted by Smartwhois I guess I'm still looking for something to replace the best gaming experience I've ever had - Ultima Online The Second Age. Maybe Wurm is not it. UO was about the community, which included handling "issues" as a co…
  • Originally posted by Smartwhois Motivators for players to police themselves instead of using absolute force.   Yes, that is sort of possible. The trouble is that people don't always trust each other, and there are always those whose actions …
  • Originally posted by Smartwhois It works if you have the right motivators in place. That's the beauty of virtual worlds, anything is possible.   What motivators?
  • Originally posted by Smartwhois The best game world is one that includes all types of players on a single server, including newbies.   Sadly, that is an ideal that really doesn't work, as much as I would love it to. I really don't like Pv…
  • Marker I am sorry, you are speaking complete rubbish. Rolf made the changes because it was in line with how he had always intended the game, it was nothing to do with his "friends." In fact, most of us who are his friends gave him hell over it…
  • Originally posted by Smartwhois Wurm devs split the diverse population onto two separate servers because of a crybabies? Bad idea! Then you end up with a population that is not diverse and half the size.   No, in fact we have gone from 3 mai…
  • Ummm   It seems sort of deceased. The last forum post is mine, the game server is off line, as is the download server.   Mind you, anytime I went into the game, I got the impression I was the only one there.     Pity
  • You would be better off asking in the Wurm Forums: http://wurmonline.com/forum/  
  • Only 3 people on? Very strange. Golden Valley, the starter server normally has between 40 and 80 people online at any one time. And generally the community is very helpful - though I have seen them be offhand to players who pop in, march up and do…
  • 3rd person always feels like cheating somehow. How can designers make you jump out of your skin if you can see things creeping up behind you?   Also, when it comes to the social aspects of an MMO, having a conversation with another person make…
  • I am sorry the client keeps crashing on you. Ask on the Wurm Forums, someone may be able to help you. http://www.wurmonline.com/forum/ Quite often it is because the graphics levels need to be changed. Click on settings. On the main "game" tab,…
  • Okay, so it is not a Horror MMO, but Wurm Online is about survival.   You are effectively thrown into a world where a large amount of the fauna see you as edible. You have to fish, cut wood, make fires, make food, grow crops, clear trees, flatte…
  • Originally posted by mutator wars... they are a bit of a problem because there are so few players, and less that want their property demolished by catapults... But everything else is pretty common:) like The greatest project is building a village…
  • Originally posted by mutator Ohh yeah btw i did help with the expansion of roadside:) so you could say i buildt half a town (7 buildings)  and that was without premium or money just that i am a hardworker:)   Ah yes, the most valuable curren…
  • Originally posted by mutator Seriously... If you get ingame cash most people will do alot of work for you if you pay them that is, when i played some time ago some of my friends ran around doing work for people for money and everyone in my villag…
  • Originally posted by mutator ofcourse its easier to get stuff through buying money...    I would say that probably applies to most of life! Not always satisfying though
  • Originally posted by Dosska This game seems to have some cool ideas. I was about to try it then I went to the wiki site and read that you can buy game money with real money. Kind of ruined it for me. Oh well.   The only thing you HAVE to pay…
  • Originally posted by captngolf (Btw, Gurubear is involved with the development of the game) So even though if you added 100silver to upkeep, the money that would flow to traders from this would be around 40s to 60s, next time this money was re-u…
