it will be different
Space monkeys...cool... Seriously though a new race is neither here nor there for most long term players... fixing up the game however is priority one :)
Laughter IS the best medicine - always
space monkeys would be cool
BUT! Spanking of the Space Monkeys is NOT allowed!!
Alas, poor Utopia! For 10 years I knew ye well.
Halflings = gnomes = halflings
all gnomes are is a renamed halfer. and now they want to duplicate it by adding halfers back... instead of spending the time adding a "new" *coughs* race, why can't they fix some of the bugs?
and some of those bugs are VERY EASILY fixed...
some of the bugs are bugs THEY created when they "fixed" other bugs (i.e. VM provs going inactive and not showing in green, or unread PMs not being bold like they were before the new years eve update... just a couple for example). Fix the date bug... the game is an hour off, it has been an hour off since the beginning of last age when the brilliant devs took it offline because they screwed up the beginning of the age. etc. etc. etc.
EDIT: oh, and don't forget the lack of the training time in war bonus that has been broken for over an age AFTER you "fixed" it so it only works in eow protection. And how about animate dead that doesn't work on ambush, yet disappears. how difficult is that to fix, seriously?
FIX WHAT'S WRONG with the damn game before you add other things that will no doubt be broken, because you haven't put even ONE age online correctly in two freaking years.
We've been beta on this game for 2 damn years... beta != forever. beta means you find bugs AND YOU FIX THEM. what a concept??? We're freaking tired of being your free beta testers. we want the REAL game we were promised 2 years ago.
You're welcome for our patience.

Well said. Those of us who are cheering for the new race, arent ignoring the fact that bug fixes should be top priority rather than new content either by the way.

why worry bout new / comeback races when theres more important things to fix?
I guess , becouse it is easier and more fun to make new things rather than fixing whats broken. Since the game is developed by developers who arent getting paid to develop it, and doing this as a charity thing, they are doing what suits their interests best I guess.

If you're saying fix bugs before you make a new race, then shouldn't they fix the bugs before they have ANY race changes next age? Are you saying they should fix bugs before they make the new age?
IMO bugs aren't huge burdens to gameplay, and they'd take a lot of time to fix. The halfling change is a big change to the game and one that we'd notice. Making the new race would probably take the same amount of time as to fix the AD bug. So imo, it's no a bad use of time to make the new race.
when people can get deleted for using said bugs 2 years after the bugs have been announced, they /are/ huge burdens to game play. Either the bugs get fixed, or they get introduced as a new feature (like the 100% accurate SoM was corrected to be a new feature, instead of a hugely abused bug (since nobody has been deleted for abusing it, i'm assuming it's no longer a bug, no matter how much the devs say there's no reason to have intelligence 100% accurate)
Sean1 - I rather sit with what I have while the base gets fixed.
House on sand!
Why are we not fixing the bugs?
I don't care about halflings, but they've sucked in the ages I've played for the most part and I doubt that would change.
