Boats are awful
 
Live had 2 boats and it was still awful.

Anytime Live had issues with boats failing, they'd put up translocator npcs.

Can't wait to log into a low pop retro server to sit on a dock for 45 minutes to get into a zone.

/rant. TLers were classic.

this server should implement a 20% chance of going LD while on a boat, so you can drown while LD

classic

Boats are great. There's nothing funnier than someone jumping down from sky and having them get zoned into OoT because the boat happened to be there at the exact moment they hit the water.

This happened to me on Live on my first character on the first day. Lost my awesome Scarab helm. Shit's classic af. I would say bump it up to 85% tbh

The boat's running mostly correctly (ie no need for translocators) but we do need the two boats on the two routes for the BB/FP trip at this point. Plus I think there should be NPCs announcing those particular boats.

+1 for two boats. I always thought there was in classic, no?

Sorn 08-26-2016 09:31 AM

Yeah, they're classic. On live they've still got the two boats running the original routes. I hear boats are a real pain in the ass to code on the emu, though.

OT -> TD too, that boat takes forever.

I fully support both ideas. I love taking the boat but the wait on the BB/FP boat can be brutal.
