Congratulation Hades and keep the good work !

Post by patric34 » Thu Jun 17, 2004 4:34 pm

First, I'm sorry for my english. I'm form Québec, Montréal and french is my first language. I'd like to take a few moment to congratulate Hades on his awesome mod (Hades Underworld). I've been playing a lot of different mods in the last 2 years and my 2 favorites are Hades and Zy-El. Unfortunately, Kato dosen't mod anymore so that leaves you first place. I love the new animations, the gems caracteristics, the new maps. I got however a few suggestions and comments (nothing negative):

- I hope you keep on delivering updates for this faboulous mod.
- Maybe it would be a good thing to take out the perfect gems of act 1 (18
is too low for requirement and we don't bother using the cube anymore
to upgrade chipped, flawed, etc..., makes the game really too easy, and
socketed armor and weapons becomes stronger than uniques).
- The game is way too easy.
- Could you had secret levels (hard ones) a la Zy-El ?
- More maps would ne welcome.
- Bigger inventory.
- A way to stash more keys, and scrolls.
- 2 skills points and 7 caracteristics would be better than 3 skills.
- Aura charms (which gives a passive aura)
- New quest rewards.
- A boss level (secret level) in which you fight all the uniques and
superuniques. (I know you did the boss and super boss modes but still it
would be cool).
- New skills for the amazon.
- New items (orbs, potions, elixirs)






I know I'm asking a lot but a guy has the right to dream...

Thanks alot for the compliments.And as for the french thing no probs here,I hear enough of it being a Canadian myself also.This is good feedback and it's what I need to make this mod keep getting better.So let's go over your suggestion's.
The gem's,well I have been thinking of simply making them non buyable.As it is unbalancing the mod.So I agree with that one.
As for the game being easy,well you should download version 1.5,as I have included some of the tougher aspects of my mod in that version.But the other's will wait for next version or later.
The boss aspect is already done.Check out places like the cave,pit,crypt,countess tower,forgotten reliquary, abaddon etc the list goes on.But in those places are thing's like Diablo clone, cows, Smith etc.And I'm adding more after also.
Quest rewards,aura skill's and bigger inventory,possibly later.
Amazon skill's....yes..just noticed I never modified her's lol.
Skill points are most likely going to go down to 2 but I haven't made up my mind yet.
And as for map's well,that aspect is being taken care of from my new co-modder,who I will announce later
Now this part goes to everyone ,try out version 1.5 and see what's all in that version.Remember I have re uploaded version 1.5 with some other skill changes.And by the way try out Canyon of the Magi......

Nuff said

just a quick reaction after playing 1.5
- Maybe it would be a good thing to take out the perfect gems of act 1 (18
is too low for requirement and we don't bother using the cube anymore
to upgrade chipped, flawed, etc..., makes the game really too easy, and
socketed armor and weapons becomes stronger than uniques).
yeah, maybe just sell normal gems for that price and move the perfects to act 5. That way you don't become that powerfull after becoming lvl 18.
- The game is way too easy.
- Could you had secret levels (hard ones) a la Zy-El ?
It's not easy anymore :D me and my brother played normal with two barbarians. him frenzy, me concentrate & wirlwind and we were both lvl 28 after act 1 and lvl 50 after baal. Nightmare is up next and too my opinion monsters now might have even too much hitpoints/life. As for secret levels, try the existing side quests :D
- Bigger inventory.
- A way to stash more keys, and scrolls.
both would be fun but not really needed. We (the mod players) are really spoiled already.
- 2 skills points and 7 caracteristics would be better than 3 skills.
I like the current 3/5 but it's not my mod :D
- Aura charms (which gives a passive aura)
Please no! kill the paladin even more! even if you include other aura's the paladin will surely suffer most.
- A boss level (secret level) in which you fight all the uniques and
superuniques. (I know you did the boss and super boss modes but still it
would be cool).
- New skills for the amazon.
- New items (orbs, potions, elixirs)
:cheer:
more funky features are good :mrgreen: ;)

another thing might be to lower the bonusses of the gems.
+3 all skills is just too strong.

and the saphire and somewhat lesser the ruby feel too weak in comparison to the amethyst and diamond.
I love the topaz btw but and that much magic find and 50% res all is too strong. :P

First of all,good feedback and idea's guy's. ;) About the skill's per level ,I am thinking of changing that to 2 per level.For next version though.Some of the gem's are going to get redone also .I'm going to be adding new graphic's for the gem's and runes also.
Now here's a quick point for everyone.........HasAnyone checked out the cave,pit, crypt, abaddon, river of flame ,forgotten reliquary etc....
Those are the places where you will find some boss monster's...and I'm adding more next version.
But keep up the great feedback,it's helping ;)
