Either that or the nerds that are DoSing the site need to stop Getting Mad At Video Games [tm] and just accept that this only looks like Minecraft but that's as far as the similarities go.

To be fair though it is probably because his shop has crappy hosting and can't cope with anything resembling a demand!

Thanks, but I prefer to keep it as much of a surprise as possible. That's half the fun of a game full of exploration.

Apparently there is a cap to the amount of people on a server, because whenever I connect to the servebeer server the map doesn't load and I end up in a world devoid of all life. :(

And this game is less fun singleplayer.

I gotta say, I wasn't really feeling this game for the first couple of levels. But then I got some gear and found a pretty short dungeon. Managed to clear it out and actually beat the boss on the first try. It was an awesome experience, and taught me a lot about how to play a Ninja, dodge-rolling like crazy for auto-crits. Now the game feels a lot more open, and I can't wait to get deeper into it.

Wouldn't mind playing with goons, though. What's the best server to jump on at the moment, and will I need to get on Mumble or something as well?

Yeah, we tend to mumble (there's like several of us in the chatroom now). As for the best server? Check the Private game servers forum, there's a cube world thread there. Current goon-go-to is servebeer, but that's getting full and it may be time to set up a second server. :v:

Me and my friends found two jungle/ocean biomes last night, that was pretty kickass. Also found a blue slime to tame, and a death god mosquito that dropped a level 100 wind spirit cube :sad:

Its pretty amazing how much time you can spend in this game and not realize it.

Pets in multiplayer seem to de-level when you change gear, to their base level. This doesn't happen in single player.

This was an in game glitch. The cost to adapt goes up exponentially and eventually rolls over.

The platinum coin scaling is a bit off. It takes way too many coins to adapt anything way too quickly.

I've been using CheatEngine to modify levels/stats etc to test % scaling. There isn't all that much to play around with though, I was just intrigued as to how the 'infinite' leveling system balances out and by the looks of it eventually adding skill points to a skill just straight up stops doing anything, and this is only with a few hundred points in a skill. Also weapons/armour seem to be capped at a power level of 100 which makes leveling beyond 1100 or so pointless.

Ha yeah also the coin system is borked, I straight up never got any platinum coins on my Ninja but just gaining gold (~7000 gold at the moment), and on my Ranger in order to get a power level 1 weapon to 100 it was like 75 million Plat.

I thought you only gained platinum from finishing quests? Even before I managed to get my first silver piece I had seven of them, if I recall. Adapting weapons is definitely weird, though. It's mostly useful to adapt downward (which is absolutely free) and I suppose only feasible if you adapt slightly upward (and I can't imagine why you'd want to.)

Does it matter too much who I play with? My Ninja is level 11 and I'm not sure if I should try jumping in with any old goons when they post servers here or if I'll be weighing them down. I've played this far solo but I'm eager to try multiplayer.

Earlier today when I was playing, I joined riaa.servebeer.com and then stepped away for a minute.

When I came back I had the lifeless bug, couldn't interact with anything so I tried to reconnect and had the same issue. So I thought that I'd play some singleplayer and it was happening in SP as well.

Anyone have any suggestions, I do want to play after I'm finished work today!

It is the opposite for me. Eventually, I will get busy again, and this game will join the list of games that I have yet to purchase for various reasons. The impulse buy window is swiftly closing. Dude should have used more proven methods for distributing the game.

He could have sold it through an actual vendor? I can never remember what site it is, but I bought at least three indie early releases from it over the past few years without issue. Towns was one. I think Prison Architect was the other. I feel like its the same site I got the Mount and Blade alpha from way back in the day too. Desura is another option.

Talking to an innkeeper resets the clock to 7am.

Sleeping in a bed/bedroll also speeds up time slightly.

I just found a page on the wiki about time:

Time in Cube World consists of a 24-hour day and night cycle.

Each minute in Cube World is 6 seconds in real time, each hour is 6 minutes and each full 24-hour day and night cycle is 2 hours and 24 minutes in real time.

This can be sped up by sleeping.

Whilst sleeping, time passes 12 times faster than it does compared to being awake.

During sleep, one minute in Cube World is 0.5 real time seconds, an hour is 30 seconds and a 24-hour day and night cycle is 12 real time minutes.

Yeah, Humble Bundle has built-in distribution, multiple payment options, and a method for distributing Steam keys if and when they become available.

If multiple people in multiplayer sleep, does that speed time multiplicativly or exponentially? If 20 people all sleep at once, does that mean time passes at (12^20) times faster, meaning 121 trillion years pass per second?

Probably not. That bug would just be too great. :allears:

Pretty sure that isn't happening anymore since registrations have been reopened. It's the store still being down that's a problem.

I was on a server last night and visted a town after dark while a friend was out fighting. When I visited the innkeeper, it was 7 am for me but still pitch black for him. Can anyone confirm or deny that time is client-side? We may have gotten disconnected before or after my town visit, the server kept crashing.
