Well, I'm  one who agrees with your feelings and can relate to your plite. 
One thing that I do is once I pass though an area (adventure) once, I go 
back to town, take care of any business (leveling, using practices, healing, 
purchasing or donating, or selling equipment) and then go back to the area I 
ust passed though.  Kill everything..I have found that if the area is not 
that big, you can get the same amount of exp that you did the first time 
through.  (one good example is the petrified dragon where you have to kill 
morticia).  I went through successfully, and then went through again.  You 
don't get the xp for completing the mission, but you do get xp for killing 
things.  Also, if you get better at a skill, you get xp.  (I put one 
practice into picking locks, and just let my character sit there for 10 
minutes trying to pick a lock until it opens.  I usually gain 2 xp awards 
(one for getting better at the skill and another for actually opening the 
lock).  If you have brew potion mage skill, brew potions.  You get a lot of 
xp for doing that.


also, apparently you can gather people into groups and do adventures 
together.  Apparently, everyone in the group gets more xp for doing xp 
runs in a group.
I've received assistance from a couple of players in tough situations and it 
really helps (not only xp gaining, but he added muscle and or magic 
abilities).

Re: [Audyssey] Alter Aeon Game Tips

2012-12-21 Thread dark

Hi lindsy.

I have several thoughts. First off, the where command is your  friend, make 
sure you use it in any new area sinse if you walk into an  area too high for 
your level you will die, no questions asked. Always make sure you are at 
least the same level, or in sme  some cases over the level for the area that 
you are in.


Next, preparation. if you walk into areas without your preparatory  spells 
and  such up, you are going to be in trouble. My character for instance  as 
a  clerric warrior has bless, armor,  faith shield, protection from evil and 
holy weapon, and that's not counting stuff I get from necromancers 
bennifits.


then, make sure you have a way to heal yourself. As a  cleric for me this 
isn't a problem, but other  class combinations will likely need to carry 
more healing with them to heal in battle.


Lastly, equipment. you can't just pick up and wear anything in the game, or 
even anything that is your level.  one of the best tips dentin gave me was 
that playing a clerric warrior, i wanted gear that improved my hit roll more 
than my armor, so that I could dish out more damage to monsters and would be 
reliant upon my spells for protection. Same goes for spells too, I always 
for instance have a demon familiar of the red imp who  improves hit and 
regen.


I'm not sure what class your character is, but this might be something to 
considder, especially when you have gear that can actually lower your cast 
level, ie, make all your spells worse, or gear that can increase your 
resistance to magic, and that counts both friendly spells you or  others 
cast upon yourself, and unfriendly spells from enemies.


then, get your stratogy sorted. elemental weaknesses, spells that do 
continuous damage or cause status conditions and curses can help a lot. As a 
cleric I often find spells like feeble mind really handy, not to mention 
elemental type spirit hammer.


necro minians can also be helpfull as meat shields in nasty areas as well, 
or so I've found.


Personally I will confess the slowness of  getting through arcase and the 
lack of  new areas is getting a bit of a drag at the moment, sinse right now 
I seem stuck betwene the same old areas and not strong enough to go into new 
oneswhich is why I've not played as much alter as I might have, but I do 
intend to carry on with the game and eventually make it to the mainland, and 
more areas are  added all the time, I enjoyed the new dragon keepers castle, 
indeed, I enjoyed all of the dark forest, though i wish it was a little 
longer and slightly higher level.


Beware the grue!

I'd need a little more information to give you character-specific 
hints, but in general you want to stay in areas apropriate to 
your level. If you're getting creamed in one area, it's probably 
best to avoid that for a few levels. I'm not sure what your 
primary class is, but if you're a thief/warrior, don't 
underestimate the power of the low level buf spells, such as

armor/bless/faith shield.

Re: [Audyssey] Alter Aeon Game Tips

2012-12-21 Thread john
I would have to disagree with some of this. Especially if you 
take a group, you can handle areas far higher than your level. 
Also, it's sometimes important to make sure you use all of your 
characters abilities. Some of them may not appear to be that 
useful (such as dirt throwing), but if you can prevent a mob from 
dodging, or you can make it cast and hit at half the speed, it's 
often worth the extra mana/hp. As regards the where command, it's 
honestly not that accurate. Yes, you can get a generic hint as to 
the area, but don't rely on that heavily. If you find yourself 
hurt, just flee/retreat and regen. Healing yourself can actually 
hurt more than it helps, especially at higher levels. One spell 
that (in my opinion) is absolutely mandatory when soloing is
sanctuary. IF you're not sanced, you're going to take more damage 
than you can handle. With the changes to regen, it's really not 
that hard to keep sanc up if you're aware of yourself and your 
stats. I guess basically what I'm saying is that you can do most
things in the game if you take the time to plan your approach, 
and stay aware of what's happening. The surest rout to death is 
to lose control of your character.

Turn can be pretty useful for exp, but it's also a risk. If you 
manage to find the perfect mobs, you can get millions of exp in a 
very short period of time. If the mobs are just a little too
strong though, turning them just lets them get in an extra attack 
on you.

[Audyssey] Change Reaction: finishing within the last second, and other thoughts

2012-12-21 Thread Karl Belanger
Hi all,
I've had a couple games pot Change Reaction where I completed the game and the 
game reported that the clock was at 0. I personally think that's rather neat, 
and I kind of wish it could go into the tenths or hundredths of a second in 
those situations.
One play I would like to see allowed is when you have a situation such as 
(Dime, blank, blank, Dime), to be allowed to play dimes in either of those 
blank spots to connect the four of them and remove them from the board. If I 
remember correctly, this was allowed in the old version.
Also, would it be possible to have the bonus round playable from the main menu 
once you've beaten it in a regular game? In this case the round would just keep 
track of your best time.
Karl

What you also have to remember when looking at those numbers is 
that certain areas are more dangerous to one class than another. 
For example, Darsakious's mantion on archais is pretty lethal to 
mages, because there are a lot of rooms with multiple mobs that 
hit moderately hard, as well as cast spells. However, it's easy 
pickings for necromancers, because their tanks are designed for 
just that type of situation. For warriors, darsakious is 
moderately difficult, though nowhere near as bad as it is to 
mages, because the extra hp warriors have gives them more time to 
react to the spells and skills. This is just one example, the

hi lindsay,
since your a necro my tips are
learn the prepare ghoul skill
and use a ghoul a wood woad or metal construct, and skeletal warriors and 
mages
also spend your combat points on prepare ghoul imho since it drasticly ups 
the damage they can do

also try demonic familiars like dark said

Hi lindsy.

I have several thoughts. First off, the where command is your  friend, 
make sure you use it in any new area sinse if you walk into an  area too 
high for your level you will die, no questions asked. Always make sure you 
are at least the same level, or in sme  some cases over the level for the 
area that you are in.


Next, preparation. if you walk into areas without your preparatory  spells 
and  such up, you are going to be in trouble. My character for instance 
as a  clerric warrior has bless, armor,  faith shield, protection from 
evil and holy weapon, and that's not counting stuff I get from 
necromancers bennifits.


then, make sure you have a way to heal yourself. As a  cleric for me this 
isn't a problem, but other  class combinations will likely need to carry 
more healing with them to heal in battle.


Lastly, equipment. you can't just pick up and wear anything in the game, 
or even anything that is your level.  one of the best tips dentin gave me 
was that playing a clerric warrior, i wanted gear that improved my hit 
roll more than my armor, so that I could dish out more damage to monsters 
and would be reliant upon my spells for protection. Same goes for spells 
too, I always for instance have a demon familiar of the red imp who 
improves hit and regen.


I'm not sure what class your character is, but this might be something to 
considder, especially when you have gear that can actually lower your cast 
level, ie, make all your spells worse, or gear that can increase your 
resistance to magic, and that counts both friendly spells you or  others 
cast upon yourself, and unfriendly spells from enemies.


then, get your stratogy sorted. elemental weaknesses, spells that do 
continuous damage or cause status conditions and curses can help a lot. As 
a cleric I often find spells like feeble mind really handy, not to mention 
elemental type spirit hammer.


necro minians can also be helpfull as meat shields in nasty areas as well, 
or so I've found.


Personally I will confess the slowness of  getting through arcase and the 
lack of  new areas is getting a bit of a drag at the moment, sinse right 
now I seem stuck betwene the same old areas and not strong enough to go 
into new oneswhich is why I've not played as much alter as I might have, 
but I do intend to carry on with the game and eventually make it to the 
mainland, and more areas are  added all the time, I enjoyed the new dragon 
keepers castle, indeed, I enjoyed all of the dark forest, though i wish it 
was a little longer and slightly higher level.


Beware the grue!

Dark.

Re: [Audyssey] Alter Aeon Game Tips

2012-12-21 Thread harmony . neil
Although I prefer to play cleric mage, I tend to use necro as a 3rd class, so I 
keep a load of spells maintained as well as maybe take a clay man or bone 
guardian and maybe a skeleton. If I'm going nto a higher level area, I normally 
run pretty slow, but cast hand spells on both myself and the clay man. I 
sometimes use wood woads, but they get hit hard by fire spells, so they don't 
last long at times. Mind you, my woad has 314 hp if I remember right. For areas 
like the nurgling swamp, you would want to use slow poison and protection from 
evil if you're good aligned. oviously if you're nutral or evil aligned it won't 
matter too much.

 hi lindsay,
 since your a necro my tips are
 learn the prepare ghoul skill
 and use a ghoul a wood woad or metal construct, and skeletal warriors and
 mages
 also spend your combat points on prepare ghoul imho since it drasticly ups
 the damage they can do
 also try demonic familiars like dark said
 hope that helps

Re: [Audyssey] Two-Fer-One E-mail: Laser Tag and iOS Game

2012-12-21 Thread Dakotah Rickard
Ok.

Hmmm. Where to begin.

The control stick for navigating your ship is located along the bottom
left corner of your screen, which is put into landscape mode by
default. Let's assume your Home button is to the right, your control
stick is about one inch square, maybe an inch and a half, but I don't
think so. It's just at the bottom left corner, and the thing you need
to remember is that there is inertia and acceleration. What I mean is
this. If you push the control stick on the left side or move it left,
you won't just slide left. You will build up speed in that direction.

If you are touching the control stick icon, your engines are firing,
and you are moving in the direction you've touched. If you go outside
the control stick's borders, you are no longer firing your engines,
and you come to a stop over time.

As for your weapons buttons, your bottom right corner, and a two inch
by one inch rectangle proceeding left and up from that point is your
primary firing button. Weapons fired with this button have unlimited
ammunition. Above this, along the right side of the device's screen
are two more panels, about an inch square, with secondary weapons
firing functions. These panels fire ammunition based weapons: rockets,
missiles, mines, and the like.
The primary weapon for your first ship is a straight-firing energy
cannon, with a firing rate of about 3 shots a second. It's pretty
distinctive.

As for switching ships, you start out with one ship, the Light
Fighter. It's fast, maneuverable, but relatively weak in both arms and
armor. You also start with a full complement of missiles and missile
plumes. These two weapons, unfortunately, sound identical, and you
really don't want to keep both equipped anyway, as they perform,
basically, the same function, firing a projectile, or a series of five
projectiles, which track to close-range targets.

In the store, there are three tabs, accessed with buttons across the
top. The first is the Items tab, and it contains all the ammunition
based weapons that you can buy. Technically, you already own whatever
weapons, you're just buying ammo for them.
If you follow the left side of the device's screen, you'll see the
list of weapons, starting with Homing Missile. On the right side and
in the middle are various data about the selected weapon. Swiping left
and right moves between these fields, and you'll see a button labeled
Equipped. If you select a different weapon, rockets, for example, you
will notice that the Equipped button changes to the Equip button, and
it's no longer dimmed out. press this to equip the selected weapon,
and you'll be prompted to choose one of your two currently equipped
systems to unequip to effect the transfer.

Changing ships works similarly. You select the Ships tab in the row
across the top and locate a different ship in the list down the left
side. Please remember that you start with only the Light Fighter.
Other ships cost money. Sometimes that money is in-game, sometimes'
it's real money. Explore your options and read about all the ships and
their prices and characteristics in the fields in the middle and on
the right.

Whether you're selecting weapons or ships, there's a buy button on the
bottom right, just below the Equip button. If this button is dimmed
out, you can't buy it, because you don't have the funds.

If you have the funds, select the buy button.

As for the tutorial mission, I sort of skipped it by mistake. Any
mission you choose, except I think the Tutorial, is multiplayer. Deep
Space mining is the first, under the missions selection screen. There
are others along the left side. You'll want to press the start button
in the bottom right part of the screen to begin and the OK button in
the bottom left, about an inch over, if you have any boosts.

Keep in mind that there are no unlabeled buttons in ErnCon that are
app-related. The only unlabeled buttons are advertisements, and these
should be treated with care.

If you have further questions, please ask.

[Audyssey] New Games: Farkle and Rummy!

2012-12-21 Thread Ryan Smith
This message was sent out to our discussion list last night:
Hello Gamers,
Exactly 3 years ago, December 20th, 2009, RS Games released Monopoly. The
free game only ran on Windows, and was our sole multiplayer title. What
originally started out as a fun project turned into a dream come true on
this date. We received a heap of feedback from players, extolling our work,
as well as asking for more games. Therefore, several months later, we
released Uno, and the RS Games Client which currently powers our
multiplayer platform. Unlike Monopoly, this piece of software runs on three
common operating systems, Mac, Windows, and Linux. It also allows us to
release new games without people having to go to a website and download new
software.
In celebration of our first anniversary, on December 20th, 2010, we added
Yahtzee as our third title. It is one of the more popular games on the
server, and based on the comments from many players, we know hours of fun
have been spent playing it.
In celebration  of our second anniversary, December 20th, 2011, we released
Apples to Apples. It is a really fun game that we know our players are
enjoying. To celebrate the third anniversary of RS Games, we are releasing
two new games, the classic dice game Farkle and the card game Rummy! Our
testers have had an inordinate amount of fun playing these games, and I'm
confident all of you will too.

default. Let's assume your Home button is to the right, your control
stick is about one inch square, maybe an inch and a half, but I don't
think so. It's just at the bottom left corner, and the thing you need
to remember is that there is inertia and acceleration. What I mean is
this. If you push the control stick on the left side or move it left,
you won't just slide left. You will build up speed in that direction.

If you are touching the control stick icon, your engines are firing,
and you are moving in the direction you've touched. If you go outside
the control stick's borders, you are no longer firing your engines,
and you come to a stop over time.

As for your weapons buttons, your bottom right corner, and a two inch
by one inch rectangle proceeding left and up from that point is your
primary firing button. Weapons fired with this button have unlimited
ammunition. Above this, along the right side of the device's screen
are two more panels, about an inch square, with secondary weapons
firing functions. These panels fire ammunition based weapons: rockets,
missiles, mines, and the like.
The primary weapon for your first ship is a straight-firing energy
cannon, with a firing rate of about 3 shots a second. It's pretty
distinctive.

As for switching ships, you start out with one ship, the Light
Fighter. It's fast, maneuverable, but relatively weak in both arms and
armor. You also start with a full complement of missiles and missile
plumes. These two weapons, unfortunately, sound identical, and you
really don't want to keep both equipped anyway, as they perform,
basically, the same function, firing a projectile, or a series of five
projectiles, which track to close-range targets.

In the store, there are three tabs, accessed with buttons across the
top. The first is the Items tab, and it contains all the ammunition
based weapons that you can buy. Technically, you already own whatever
weapons, you're just buying ammo for them.
If you follow the left side of the device's screen, you'll see the
list of weapons, starting with Homing Missile. On the right side and
in the middle are various data about the selected weapon. Swiping left
and right moves between these fields, and you'll see a button labeled
Equipped. If you select a different weapon, rockets, for example, you
will notice that the Equipped button changes to the Equip button, and
it's no longer dimmed out. press this to equip the selected weapon,
and you'll be prompted to choose one of your two currently equipped
systems to unequip to effect the transfer.

Changing ships works similarly. You select the Ships tab in the row
across the top and locate a different ship in the list down the left
side. Please remember that you start with only the Light Fighter.
Other ships cost money. Sometimes that money is in-game, sometimes'
it's real money. Explore your options and read about all the ships and
their prices and characteristics in the fields in the middle and on
the right.

Whether you're selecting weapons or ships, there's a buy button on the
bottom right, just below the Equip button. If this button is dimmed
out, you can't buy it, because you don't have the funds.

If you have the funds, select the buy button.

As for the tutorial mission, I sort of skipped it by mistake. Any
mission you choose, except I think the Tutorial, is multiplayer. Deep
Space mining is the first, under the missions selection screen. There
are others along the left side. You'll want to press the start button
in the bottom right part of the screen to begin and the OK button in
the bottom left, about an inch over, if you have any boosts.

Keep in mind that there are no unlabeled buttons in ErnCon that are
app-related. The only unlabeled buttons are advertisements, and these
should be treated with care.

If you have further questions, please ask.
