World with only "play now" option.
« on: August 02, 2009, 09:14:57 am »
Why there is only Human:play now option in my new world(I can't get any skills at start! I'm naked!)? It's size of 33x33 and it has 1 civ, 10000 years of history, 1 bronze colossus and around 500 caves. Playable civ required is on too.
haha!
Seems like theres little bit challenge in playing this1 :D

Why? Because you have no human starting entities with towns and items to start with.

All the humans in that world are dead.  The default "Play Now" will only start you as a human.  Since all humans have died off there is no one to make you clothes and items to start out with.  "Play Now" also starts you at 0 in all skills so you have to work from the ground up.  You are essentially a peasant.  My advice is to gen a new world or play an elf ( :( ) or a dwarf if they are available.

Just wondering if its possible to survive naked more than 5 mins. What protects my body against the Bronze colossus if I have no armor or shield-> no any defensive skills. I just need lots and lots of luck?

Nope, you're pretty much screwed. Unless you can just hang back and throw shit. I don't want to know how long it will take to train up to legendary by throwing two handfuls of sand at a time.
