Dark Age Of Camelot: A New Year of Grab Bag Begins

The always quotable Sanya Thomas delivered her most recent Friday Grab Bag before taking off for the weekend. As usual, this Q&A format article, tries to address the major questions from the community that week.

Q: Ahem. Not to put too fine a point on it, but you SAID archers were coming in 1.87.

A: I did. The reason we're moving them to 1.88 are perfectly sensible reasons, but that doesn't make the disappointment easier to swallow, and I am really sorry about that.

We are in the midst of discussing and planning a lot more archery changes than we were when 1.87 was penciled into the schedule. We need more coding done, and that code tested, before we can start posting notes to our team leads for review. There's just no way we can work these things into 1.87 at this point, despite our best efforts. Again, I'm sorry to cause disappointment, but I have to admit... I am pleased that the Redhead is not taking the simpler way out of some long-needed changes to archery in Camelot. This isn't one of those systems that we could just tweak a few settings and move on, not with any dignity.
