Mud golem acting weird

xzagii · 02-18-2004, 11:30 PM

I was playing against Elendil when he used hid mud golem for an attack. The golem had multi hits, 3 or 4 if i remember a little bit everywhere. He seemed to know about this glitch but had no clue what caused it.

The mud golems have a new secondary earthquake attack. You hold down on the golem for three seconds, then let go. The screen then shakes and everyone near the golem (read: shrubs) get hurt a little.

I completely understand how you would think this is a bug.

Although i'm glad that we got this new feature, i want to criticize the admins for no announcement, no update on the webpage (ie, nothing about it in the news and the page for the mud golem hasn't been updated). The only way to really know about it is to be active in the forums, which only a very small percentage of the TAO population is.

I was playing once and did that once too. At first, i thought it to be a bug but after a couple of other tries, it relized it was no bug. I was suprized to find no update in th forums, but maybe they will have one shortly.

It has been around for a few weeks now people. You could try reading posts from a few weeks ago. We already went through this.

And the admins and game designer meant this to be a secret attack, emphasis on secret. Which meant there was a deliberate nonanouncement.(nice word eh?)

The nonannouncement of this does lead to an inordinant amount of people being reported for "cheating" with their mud golems though. It should be made public on the website. After all, this game is about tactics, and if some people don't know all of a unit's abilities how can they use it tactically? It's unfair that some people have an advantage that others do not.

It's just a marketing scam to make people look at the forums more

(although how that is marketing or a scam, I don't know)

People are too paranoid, everything is a bug or a hack to them if they don't understand it. "Secrets" to the game are supposed to be a fun thing

Looks like the Mud Golem secret is out though.
