Re: Player Feedback on R60 Change: Being Fully Encumbered Will Block Loot & Trade

Well the loot makes sense.
But what happens, if you have to carry thousands of COTOs to the crown vendor?
You may be fully encumbered if you carry the COTOs for lets say a city bundle.

Or would you make the COTOs as weightless as gold?

many of the major coto purchases (lot deeds, etc) can be made anywhere with other changes in r60.

the new encumbrance will make deco, especial town deco, a little more difficult. still workable though.

 

What about water for watering plants? This will get super annoying running back and forth with a few water cuz water is super heavy. Maybe make water lighter? Just checked and I will only be able to carry 278 water at 3x base capacity on my alt, and hes level 100 with 80 heavy lifter.

 

I have a crafting box that reeeeaallly full. I normally take a slow march to the crafting station. With this change, I can still walk but I cannot craft. I cannot pull the item off the crafting station.

just and FYI.... Not sure if that is working as intended.

 

I have this setup in Mystic Isle. You're welcome to do your crafting there, you don't need to be a resident. They're all +5 stations too.

 

I believe he is saying that he cannot craft at his home. He cannot craft inside a cone. He cannot craft on top your stage. He cannot make a single (blank) page!

 

hehehe more punishment... I see...

 

He has a container that has all of his crafting stuff in it and takes it to the crafting station. There, you can leave it in the bank and just grab what you need. If you don't have some necessary ingredient, it's only a few steps to get it.

 

Good point. We just reduced them by a decimal place from 0.1 to 0.01

 

Yeah, this is really problematic -- I usually carry approximately 6000 buckets of water at a time to have a full set of water for my planting beds (when purchasing from the merchant), and 3000 for the first planting (initial planting + second water immediately after) and 1500 buckets for the final 2 waters. This is going to be an utter nightmare unless lots are excluded or the weight of water is near zero. @DarkStarr

 

I know that seems reasonable, but the reality is a lot of upcoming crafting time will go from "I'm going to go bang out some boards" to "inventory management.... I think I'll go fishing instead."

 

yes, just think bulk creation of animal hides -> leather... those hides weigh a ton.

 

Not long ago @Chris was talking about maybe making a bucket water 20 plants. That would drop you down to 300 on your first watering, which would mitigate some of the pain.

 

less exploit is better qol
regular players wont be affected that much..

 

That change doesn't appear to be in R60 (nor on the roadmap), so until that time? And it doesn't address other bulk crafting issues.

 

I'm a regular player... I play hours everyday... I will be affected... hehehehe

 

I was waffling before. I'll give it I try, but I have a feeling I'm done with pretty much everything this game has to offer when this happens.

 

I’ll have to stop buying ore in bulk but other than that nbd.

Please ban exploiters!

 

will prove to be a minor inconvenience, but with use of belt of ox foods buffs and other gear should not be to much of an issue to get around.

unless I am misreading how this will apply.

 

Belt of the Ox and Ring of Brittle Brawn prices skyrocketing in 3...2...

This makes crafting a complete nightmare and chore now. You are going to have to do some major item and inventory management, where 90% of the time is clicking and dragging items from containers to your inventory / crafting table. Whereas before the change, you can have all your mats, components, and tools in a few containers, incur be encumbered, but can double click to craft. Now, you are going to drag and drop ingredients to no end.

Plus, any batch crafting of heavy items is out of the question.

And buying in bulk from vendors is also going to require more trips back and forth.
