Legate of Mineta Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 Schwarzbart; 1) Hmmm- I'm not clear on what you mean by this one. 2) Yes, in some cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 I talking about CoD in year 1 so far found at the wrong place give you detention but maybe in year 2 or even later there other things that could happen when spotted in places with high CoD? It would be a nice change if sometime you have to handle the owner instead of a Professor when spotted in a place your not supposed to be.

Legate of Mineta Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 Schwarzbart; Yeah! That would be really neat. It's not like that in Y2, but in the future...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Where there other try to make cheaper flying ship beside using hundred of birds to get around using Volnauge wood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 Schwarzbart; Definitely- balloons, stone, other forms of magic. Nothing is as inexpensive. Now that new engines are coming from Ruckmarn, however, Volnauge may be being challenged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 You mean we will see more balloon ships with Ruckmarn steam engine? Or is the Ruckmarn engine also giving lift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 2, 2017 Report Share Posted April 2, 2017 It doesn't give lift- but they use volnauge or stones to keep an even keel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Legate, I haven't pestered you with questions for a while now, right? 1. When talking about Gates Mishaps, is the Chaos factor distinguishable from the average magical accident? 2. Apart from the obvious reasons why Mastery is banned, can you elaborate any on the dangers to one's own health when using that magic? 3. We know how many of our classmates took each class in Y1, but as you've pointed out, even though we aren't aware of them, upperclassmates have shared some of our classes. Can you tell us about how many are likely to have been in our classes in Y1? I'm thinking 2 to 3 extra students? 4. Does the enchanting process differ when doing so during or after the creation of a item? Could a wizard partner up with a blacksmith and do the magic after the items are made just as easily?

Schwarzbart Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Then lets also bring up the old questions again: 5) Are you allowed to share some more of the year 2 class and maybe even the requirment for them by now? 6) Who was the mad Legate that fought the battle at the Academagia: Gym of the Mind some decades back? 7) How long is it back that the last Professor, Regent or Legate got killed while working for the Academagia? 8) How common is it that one of the Academagia faculty got killed? 9) Is there a known place that teach Arithmancy and will we give the option to learn it during our 5 years at Academagia even if not at the Academy it self? 10) What are the speed records for airships that A: Only rely on natural wind, B: Rely on steam (and maybe wind too, if they can get away with it), and C: Magically augmented speeds (probably the Red Ship).

Ascartand Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 11) How would a child that barely know Elumian as in know how to write it but not speak it well be treated by staff and students? I expect students to make fun of them but what about staff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 OK! 1. When talking about Gates Mishaps, is the Chaos factor distinguishable from the average magical accident? Yes. 2. Apart from the obvious reasons why Mastery is banned, can you elaborate any on the dangers to one's own health when using that magic? I cannot. Muah+haha. 3. We know how many of our classmates took each class in Y1, but as you've pointed out, even though we aren't aware of them, upperclassmates have shared some of our classes. Can you tell us about how many are likely to have been in our classes in Y1? I'm thinking 2 to 3 extra students? Likely to be around that many, yes. 4. Does the enchanting process differ when doing so during or after the creation of a item? Could a wizard partner up with a blacksmith and do the magic after the items are made just as easily? Hmmmmm. It's better to do it during, when the magic can 'set' with the item. But a master Enchanter could make that difference be indistinguishable in the final result. 5-10) I'll ping them. 11) It depends on the staff member- some would very much make fun of them. Others might treat them with considerable empathy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 5-10) I'll ping them. 1) Lol you doing this so long till I forgot about them or put them in my Signature again that you see them each day? 2) Are we allowed to make the release date for the Steam version public that we got via mail? (I had asked 2 day ago via PM but was ignored) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 On 2, I'd assume not just in the off chance that something catches fire and it gets delayed for the umpteenth (you sure "upteenth" isn't words, spellcheck? 'Fyou say so...) time. Though on the flip side the Team already confirmed an April release in the Greenlight comments 'bout a month back, so if something does catch fire the Team's going to have a hell of a time proving they aren't liars.

Legate of Mineta Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 Schwarzbart; You can certainly make the date known- I doubt it will be an issue. If it does slip, it's always for a reason, so...there's little that can be done about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyrhet Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 How long after the release could we conceivably expect to wait for the new modtool file thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 dyrhet; That unfortunately will not be released until Y2. We've been using to prepare content for a few DLC now, but it's not for outside consumption yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyrhet Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Oh! Well dang. To clarify do you just mean the modtool will only come out with year 2, or that there won't be a new modbase until year 2 either? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 dyrhet; I think there will be a new modbase- the final one, to go with DLC 17. That one won't come out for a bit, though, to give everyone time to explore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Is year 1 now using the steam workshop for mods or is it staying the old manual copy way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 So, 'bout the Steam page: Cast Spells from the five Pillars of Magic, or learn the Forbidden Arts Artifice/Enchant, Astrology, Glamour, Incantation, Negation and Revision? 6? I recall that Orthography got demoted, but... Also, pretty sure Gates/Mastery are pillars of magic in their own right, just...not legal ones. Teach, train and adventure with a Familiar from one of dozens of species I...don't see how teaching and training your Familiar are apparently separate things ? They don't have Study Levels last I checked. Enjoy nearly endless replayability and scope "Especially because 'endless' is a pretty good description for the length of time between now and Y2's ETA, but you didn't hear that from me" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legate of Mineta Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Schwarzbart; Still the old way, I don't think there's any support for Steam Workshop. Metis; I'm not sure why 5 over 6- that must be a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 I'm not sure why five over eight. Gates and Mastery are pillars of magic just as much as Revision and Negation, I don't think proscription stripped them of that title. Speaking of Steam, BTW, what "achievements" does it have, and, eh...just what are Steam trading cards or whatever anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 Metis; The Achievements are very basic, but you'll see them soon. I actually am pretty unfamiliar with trading cards. When you play games on Steam they just...pop up. I guess some people like to collect them, but...I'm not among them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ascartand Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 The cards unlock badges if every one is collected. All it does to my knowledge is increase your steam profile level. However I would not know considering that I sell them for steam cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
