First things you're going to do when next version releases?
« on: March 29, 2014, 07:47:39 pm »

For me:
1. Download.
2. Donate.
3. Generate a world with an extremely long history.
4. Reclaim a fort.
5. If there's a large graveyard, destroy it by cave in after copying the save.
6. If step 5 carried out, have Fun, and then go to sensible save.

I am quite looking forward to the next 20 or 30 years or so of developmental madness

1) Donate
2) Die a glorious death in my first attempt at adventure mode
3) Build a fort run by a mad warlord bent on liberating the rest of the world's people from their barbaric cultures by killing large numbers of them, taking their resources and searching for and destroying their "weapons of mass destruction."

Create adventurer named "Frodo Onering". He must have master striking skill.

STEP THREE

Punch someone to mess around with the new


STEP ONE

Download DF2014.

STEP TWO

Copy all my weapon RAWs into the new RAW folders so I can hit others with quarterstaves, rapiers, and my specialty "poki spears" that I invented after making a design for... erm, I'll spoiler the poki spear story.

Spoiler: Poki Story (click to show/hide)

STEP THREE

Punch someone in a bar and see what happens.

This is when I imagine the hilarity which may happen if certain things are glichy. Such as targeting your own body parts to eat.

I'm going to start up a fortress and see if I can build an air ship that can house 300 dwarves and still be in the shape of a galleon.

Accidentally made over 5000 copper maces once. I have no idea how that happened.

The first time you see this, copy it into your signature on any forum and add 1 to the generation. Social experiment.

Recreate the anime Berserk. Then run into bug. Then decide I should take a break. Then look at the forums to read what other people are doing. Screw around and generate worlds until the post-release bugfixing cycle ends then create the world I'll play for the next few IRL years like I did last time.

There's nothing except Dwarf Fortress that can make me remember locations that are named two random words or play in a world generated in 5 minutes for dozens of hours. And next update won't have a stagnant world, so I'll be able to play basically forever.

Live long if you can, and prosper by any means necessary.  Any means, Urist.  So pull that lever, or by Armok, I'll lock you outside come next siege.
He who plays with dwarves must take care that he does not become a dwarf.  And when you stare into DwarfFort, Dwarffort stares back into you.

Fuck around with reputation and things that effect that.
Test out the limits of the new AI by burning down an elven forest.
Build fort next to the now angry elves.

Multi-attack?
There's actually a point in not having a shield besides weight now?

I THINK you can still dual weld while having the shield strapped to your arm or something. He has said something about dual welding and multi-attacking would connect to that.

There's an accuracy penalty mind. But combined with the whole "heavy, short, wild" attack type thing, you could do some serious damage in one attack.

Load a fortress game and chop down a tree.

Keep chopping until the fortress reaches it's demise.

Figure out what I have to edit in the mod I literally just finished to use it in the new version. Then I will go on adventure mode and try to see if any of those epic world-gen battles happen in the regular DF.
