i want to be able to name my weapons. That'd be cool!
anyway, all news is up and more info about what else is coming (3 patches!! They are spoiling us now!)
got to feel sorry for all the players on 56kps dial up. Going to mean a fair amount of patch time.....
can't wait to see a bit more content and the 'rite' missions and thier rewards have peaked my interest. I hope to see new abilites to add to crafted items avaliable to crafters!

Nice to see, unfortunately and I sorry but im gonna downer this, too little too late for a lot of us. As Skye has said and I have agreed it is so dead in most areas that you could debate wether Massive could be removed from MMORG.
However if they carry on at this rate then in 3 months I think some substantial content will be there and Ryzom will be otw to the game it should have been at release, I just hope that it will attract the player base as unfortunately the european servers of WoW will have gone live.
For you dedicated Ryzom players Im very happy for you and hope you can help Nevrax into a game that will attract the player base it needs to survive.

Hmm, theres no mention of Guild missions to get outposts is there? Just the rite missions for the encyclopedia? They seem to be oddly silent about the outpost missions

to little to late i mean we all new the time scales of things and the patient ones have stayed and lasted the time and hopefully will reap the benefits I think actually the majority of folk who have left where the ones who always intended to leave and not give the game a chance hence why the first few weeks you had the infamous posts of Ill stay and stick with Ryzom or im going to EQ2 or WOW, some people have left cause they could no longer do 20-30 levels in a night or just couldnt figure out how to avoid scowling gingos with out dying. Other people left cause of lack of content or lack of imagination or lack of being a social entity.
however
Im also seeing lots of new faces and also have gained a number of new members in last two weeks all 14 day free trialers of which 90% have subscribed thats a pretty good ratio in my opinion but maybe ive just made it intresting and a good gaming experience for them

and they fell in luv with me and not the game and would miss me terribly if they never subscribed
and i know borg i really did feel you didnt want to put a downer on this little thread but my hat of to you.

If anything Im peeved at the fact that I was really enjoying the game and they kept changing it in my opinion to combat those who could contribute 8 hours a day to the game. Those of us who are lucky to get 2 hours a night have suffered to the point where I personally now find the game difficult, not fun difficult but unfun difficult. So the game isnt for me but Im not everyone and I wish you all the best of luck. When borg9 tells me theyve stopped screwing around with the game mechanics and have introduced enough content to keep us going for more than a few days I will be back, no doubt I wont be the only one.

Do the developers ever sleep? I want some of what they're on! There must be an army of them, or a small *very* dedicated team.
These major patches are what we have all been holding out for and are the best Christmas present the team could have given us. The boys and girls of Atys must have been very good this year.....

Well I'm also a 2/3 hours a night player and I have to say I don't agree with you on this. I don't feel my experience has sufferred unduly or become too difficult. I have still been happily and steadily lvling my character since the changes. I have done this both solo and in teams.
Granted I have had to adjust my tactics to fit the changes but that's part of life. Things do change, life is like that, you simply have to adapt.
