[_] [G] Daily update Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)17:58 No.

  Ladderv. previous updates in short: rebalanced melee characters, bards, by adding moar weapons,
  switching some weapons, fixing mounts and increasing stat gains.

  Current update:
  Fixed a bug where high-level bards would get modifiers like "undefined" or "NaN" for instruments
  There are now 28 tiers of ranged weapons instead of the original 16, meaning ranged characters
  have a slight advantage over melee characters at higher levels. This balances mounts being better
  than missiles.

  Some have voiced concerns over rebalanced rogues getting very large amounts of dex; I personally
  feel that the amount is just right to make the rogue balanced with regard to dodge and to-hit.

  Backwards compatible with all characters; only new characters from v11 onwards receive level-up
  tied benefits.

Marked for deletion (old).

  gj as always, thx anon
  but how do I play my older chars wit this?

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)18:06 No.

  >>1374321
  Two main options.
  1) copy your old save file over this flash's save file
  or
  2) If running Idleq locally, save this file over the previous instance of the game.
  A third option is waiting until someone posts a ladder version on 4chan as "IdleQuest.swf".

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)18:06 No.

  Just a quick request: Could you go through and try and fix typoes and misspelled words?

  The ones that stick out in my mind are: Saffire (a loot item in high level zones), Accordian
  (Bard instrument) and Ultamite (modifier for mounts) but I'm sure I've seen more.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)18:14 No.

  >>1374327
  I think I changed "ultamite" to "ultimate" already back when I was tinkering with mounts and high
  level characters sometimes getting "undefined" as a modifier.. I'll check the rest out next time
  I open the code.

  there's also "robitic" as a qualifier for high level creatures

  why would you bother updating this shit?

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)18:21 No.

  Because some people enjoy playing it, I would assume.

  Anon keeps /r/ing me things and it takes me like 10 minutes. It's not so much fun to me as I know
  exactly how the game works and what can happen in it, but I enjoy the discussions on 4chan.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)19:00 No.

  so yeah. to the anon making this, I hope you're aware that this game is nothing but a rip off of
  progrest Quest that's been around since like 2000?

  >herp derp progress quest derp

  Reasons this game is different from Progress Quest:
  Races are different from one another in more ways than name
  Classes are different from one another in more ways than name and stats
  Stats actually mean things
  Spells actually do anything at all
  There is a quest given to you at the beginning that you can actually complete
  The story is linear and every character follows the same path
  The battles aren't just "wait until the bar fills up and you've won"
  You can actually lose battles
  The quests aren't just "wait until the bar fills up and you get another quest"
  You can actually lose quests

  Need I go on?

  Not just the rogues, man:
  The archaeologists got nerfed the fuck out!
  They still get ammunition, but no bows or guns.
  Defeats the purpose.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)19:15 No.

  >>1374368

  Because all of this means ANYTHING in a game where the whole point is "sit there and stare at the
  screen and never press a button"

  Protip: it doesnt.

  Regardless of what the screen tells you, its the exact. same. game.

  Every point you bring up boils down to you saying no more than "herp derp derp" in this games
  defense. Seriously, if you think any of these points mean anything to a game whose point is to do
  nothing, you're an utter retard, its just different words on the screen that require no
  interaction.

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)19:20 No.

  >>1374377
  Requiring no interaction is not the same as having no influence on the game, and that is what you
  seem to fail to understand.

  In Progress Quest you create a character by choosing absolutely meaningless race/class and you
  let the game run, and bars fill up, and numbers increase.

  In IdleQuest you create a character by choosing very meaningful race/class and let the game run,
  and depending on what your chosen race/class are you will either kick ass and take names and
  numbers will go up, or you will sit there and die over, and over, and over again and numbers will
  not go up. This adds depth and strategy where Progress Quest has only "bars fill up, numbers go
  up"

>> [_] Anonymous 09/15/10(Wed)19:21 No.

  >>1374377
  You can complete the game and how fast that happens depends on how well you build your character.
  This makes it a competitive game, unlike PQ which is neither a game nor competitive. If you're
  too retarded to consider the possibility of rerolling or branching characters, that's your
  problem. It's already known that /f/ likes running this in the background and posting their
  characters (whose attributes actually have relevance unlike a progress quest character's would).
  Now GTFO.

  BUT THAT'S THE POINT
  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Gold", 10000);

  ALL OF THE FOLLOWING STATS ADD A 0 ONTO THE END
  SO 100 IS REALLY 1000
  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Str", 100);

  These only work DURING A BATTLE and don't actually affect anything else but that battle.
  Never lose a battle again!
  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Health", 10000);
  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Mana", 10000);

  You can change the number in any of these, btw. These break pretty much everything. Set it well
  over your level and your level just starts adding a 1 on the end and becomes ridiculous nonsense

  I reccomend you leave Level alone, and don't put too much in EXP.
  I just realized in making myself ridiculously overpowered that my quest is now 'kill 2010
  skeletons'

  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Exp", 10000);
  javascript:document.embeds[0].SetVariable("Level", 100);

  That should be everything you need to break the hell out of this game
  I'd stick with just the stats and gold if you want it to progress normally

  Last paladin I ran (a few versions ago I admit) was pretty sweet. still not exactly "kicking ass
  and taking names" but he was in oasis at level 7, while in the vanilla version my paladin was
  level 10 in the dread hills.
