Possibility of minor improvements?

[sambal]

The other day I was medding on my Iksar Necro and realized... I don't have the skeleton of an Iksar! Somehow after my skin peels off, there's a human skeleton underneath.

I know there are models for male and female Iksar skeletons, and I'm wondering if it would be theoretically feasible to display these (at least on client side). It has just started bothering me more and more, every time I see a gnome turn into a human skeleton it bugs me too. The Iksar skeletons are supposedly in the global files already.

I know it's not classic, but it would be Classic+.

What other kinds of extremely minor tweaks would make you happy?

There's no winning for losing once you start down that road, there're simply too many different opinions.

The devs seem to be determined to deviate deliberately from classic only when they view it as necessary to curtail bad behavior by players (ex: the <L5 zoning restrictions) or stop game-breaking exploits (ex: the Ivandyr's Hoop nerf). Changing that approach would break with the vibe that made/makes p99 what it is. I can't see that as desirable regardless the little things that irritate you, me, or anybody else.

Insert "Not Classic" rant here.

But I like your style.

I always wanted gnome necros to have the illusion of a gnome skeleton, would make the race decision much easier :p

There's some precedent for this sort of thing: The ship in Ocean of Tears runs in the geographically correct direction instead of the classic but wrong reversed direction.

Halfling sized skeleton on my screen would be neat with AoN or a pint sized DE, but alas.

Classic boat models that don't require lev has been a dream of mine ever since I started playing here.

Interesting. Yeah it was clearly a bug, not even just a bug... an annoying oversight. Glad it's fixed here :)

You may be right, it just seems like maybe the original devs ran out of time when coding Lich spells for Iksar, or else why would Iksar skeletons be in the global files? Peering into this, I can sort of see their original design and intent.

I'm sure there are other problems as well, just wanting to see if anybody else had some little issues that bothered them too.

I remember back on live thinking the same thing (whenever I grouped with an iksar necro)

Would be better if you matched up the words with the lips a little better. Probably needs something like "Not Classic bitches.." or something.

Also, I am so tired of seeing that video on the airplane every time I fly. Which is a lot.

I could see the term Classic+ becoming popular. There seems to be growing talk about, "whats next" after Velious. What ever direction is decided by them will more than likely be right... Its been right thus far..

[Monty405]

Re99 is next!

Ya I thought about trying to add more words to match the lips better but... meh - plus i wanted to keep it to just "not classic"

Also - i havent seen deltalina in recent flights (i fly a bunch as well), i miss her. On the flights ive been on they've replaced that video with some other crap and trying to be all funny about hiding things in the background / having people doing stupid crap on the plane etc. Oh well I guess.... but I still think she's hot...
