What are you going to do first?
« on: November 24, 2011, 02:19:04 pm »
With the new release seemingly imminent, apart from generating a new world, what's the first thing you plan on doing?

I think I'll check out the towns in adventure mode.

Not sure, I'll probably get around to finally using the justice system. Something that, before the upcoming release, just seemed like more of a bane than a blessing.

In other news, the trees in my game can have invisible sex.

I'm going to make an adventure character, and explore the new stuff there. Which parts I get to first just depends on where the game puts me and what quests it gives me.

Take a good long look at interaction modding. I want a psycho super serum for my soldiers to take before combat.

Il fully examine legends, then Iltake an adventurer to a necromancers tower and see how hard they really are. Then Il see how hard they are in dwarf mode.

Embark on a new fort and discover new features as they show up.

Do you always look at it in ASCII?

You get used to it, I don't even see the ASCII.  All I see is blacksmith, miner, goblin.

Go over the raws carefully and see what new tags and entries have been created.  Then I'll update my personal mods to the new version.  That will be my fortress-playing copy, where I'll eventually start up the story-based community fortress I've been planning.

I'll probably also take a vanilla copy, gen a world, and go adventuring, just to see the new cities and such.

Become an adventurer and exhaust every possible nook and cranny of the new adventure content. Then be bored and wait for the next release.

Adventure mode exploration, then check out in what ways dwarf mode is different, then MAAAAYYYBBBEEEE some fiddling with modding.

First things first.  You're all soulless husks of what might have once been decent human beings, drafted into a sort of moral apartheid from your better natures in the pursuit of things made out of cute animals.  I love it.-Corvidae

Does anyone know an estimate? No, I'm not nagging. I'm just curious if I should make a new fortress or wait for the vampires. I hope they won't sparkle.

It isn't a new Dwarf Fortress version until we're made to fear some kind of regular creature.  Carp, Elephants, Unicorns, Badgers, and now Mosquitos.  I've got 5 dorfBucks on the next one being plagues of groundhogs.

Ditto for me. I have a community fort that needs to be run, but if its a good month or more off, I don't need to wait. I'm not saying this because I want toady to hurry, just so I can make a informed decision.
