The Eve spawns would probably drop a lot since I'm pretty sure a lot of people prefer living in a village than starting from scratch. And I feel like the point of the game is kinda to not be able to choose t.ex. how you look, where you spawn etc. And I think it would actually be easier for new players to learn if they were an Eve because you get to learn the basics from the beginning and it's ok if they mess up because nobody will get mad at them so there's much less pressure.

You're literally "roleplaying" just by playing the game, only some decide to really put their heart into it.
What's the point of playing if all you do is work and not "roleplay" with anyone, people like that, who never say goodbye to their mother when they die, always seem kind of heartless to me.
This game is set up to be a roleplaying game, to build family-like relationships with people you've never met before. I think it's pretty wonderful, you always find lots of friends, and if you're lucky, even a husband or wife!
So I don't understand your complaining about "roleplayers", like you think you're better than them for some reason. It's just another way to play the game.
Also, your rage against my wife was pretty nasty, you can even see it in your last words; "Whore".

Jack Gump II was probably just smart enough to realize that if she said she didn't love her mother she would get killed so, kudos to her.

Jack Gump IV probably just had to go like her last words suggest, not because of how "horrible" my wife was, she probably wouldn't have casually said goodbye to everyone then.

Gonna make this a short one (hopefully):

So got born into a decent sized town on server 3 to a pretty dumb mom, never talked to me (I don't even remember her name) but she named me Jack, Jack Gump.

Only a few seconds later I see this girl running past and she had a black text bubble. I knew what this meant and I was baffled at the fact that her mom had raised her until she was old enough to take care of herself despite this. But weirdly enough I didn't try to avoid her and did the opposite instead as I had never seen a black text bubble before. Her name was Abby Gump II.

I started to get to know her and she wasn't so bad at all, and before I knew it we were married and had a daughter named Jack II. She was the towns cook and I tried to help out but I just fucked up everything. We went on to have 5 kids together some of which we sacrificed to the burrito god because they didn't love their mother, and others just starved to death. In the end, we ended up with 2 kids, our firstborn daughter, Jack II, and our last born son, Jack II (who looked just like me).

But when we got older my wife suddenly went out on a killing spree murdering everyone except our kids and grandkids. Sadly, my only son got killed in the action by a rattlesnake. But this didn't stop Abby, she was determined. Despite her sudden craziness, I still supported her and I wasn't gonna let those fools kill my wife so I fed her and protected her. After every last one was gone I understood why she might have gotten that black text from. But our last daughter still loved her mother just as much and she loved her back.

We got to meet multiple grandkids including Jack Gump IV.

After that there's not much more to tell, someone came back and tried to kill Abby again but missed. I died of starvation at 50 and my wife died a little while after that. Good ol' times were had.

#104 Re: Main Forum » What new tech do you want to see in the game? » 2018-08-01 11:50:19

We need maps too so that if you find a town (or something else) you can mark it down on a map so that everyone can know where they are. This would make trading much easier.

#105 Re: Main Forum » Cheat » 2018-07-25 21:02:03

we gotta use this before it gets patched up!

#106 Re: Main Forum » Customization option? » 2018-07-25 20:59:37

When I just started the game I thought customization was cool too but I don't think it fits in this game. When you are born you are kinda put into a role and if you always looked the same you would be the same person all the time. And not to mention that genetics wouldn't work at all if there was customization.

So I'm all for genetics and not choosing your look.

#107 Re: Main Forum » Ghosts » 2018-07-25 20:50:41

Maybe a kinda spectate thing? You spawn in as a ghost (by choice) and you can teleport to anyone you want but no communication. Would be cool.

#109 Re: Main Forum » Favorite Job? » 2018-07-23 12:12:43

I'd have to say being a doctor is my favorite task, but it's quite hard and most of the time you go your whole life without even having to help one person. If I'm a boy (and I can't be a doctor) I'll probably be a smith, it's one of the harder jobs so a lot of the new players don't know how to do it. Otherwise, I'll just do whatever is needed.

Post bugs on "Known Bugs" please. It's easier for Jason to see them then.

Now, I've had some great lives but this one was the best ones by far:

I spawned in as a boy with my mom, Cora, in the middle of a huge village (on server 3). She named me Jo.
Right after I was born I got clothes from an old woman who was about to die, I called her grandma.
I was planning on becoming a smith but it never seemed like anyone needed anything so I never became a smith.

A while later I spotted another old woman who was looking for someone to take over as a doctor and I knew this was my calling.
Ever since the update released I've taken every opportunity I have to become a doctor. She gave me her backpack with a knife in it and an apron with a needle and a ball of thread.
She led me to a room a bit north and tried to open the door but it was locked and the key was inside somehow.
The room had all the supplies you needed to become a doctor (except anti-venom).

She gave me a lock with a key inside and I take it, but just when I put it down to eat this young girl named Camila runs up to it and picks it up DEMANDING that I tell her what it's for.
I was scared that she would take it and run away because this was my only chance to get the right key for the door.
I told her to put it down but she just kept telling me to tell her what it was for so I started getting angry at her. Eventually, she put it down and I quickly picked it off the ground.
After trying to make the right key for the door I gave up, and someone had already made some pads to the left of the room in a half-finished room so I had most of the supplies I needed.

Just then a young man named Tony can in the door and simply just said "Sup".
This already lightened my mood and he seemed so kind. He asked me to teach him to become a doctor and I thought that since I had nothing else to do it wouldn't hurt to have another doctor in the town.
I went through all the basics and we made some more pads and had a great time.
After I had taught him everything, Camila can inside and I had forgiven her at this point so I didn't mind having her around.
And after a while, the three of all became very good friends.

Camila went outside and when she came back she said that the town was basically dead.
All of us were becoming old and we didn't want all the time we put into the supplies to go to waste so Camila agreed to get shot by Tony so that I could fix her up.
The surgery was successful and we all had fun.
Now we were VERY old so Camila asked if she could stab me so I thought why not, just for the fun of it.

But right after she did a young woman came along (which was a surprise since we thought the town was dead, she probably heard the death scream) and STABBED Camila before we could explain so now we were both dying.
But to my delight, Tony still remembered how to be a doctor so he quickly managed to fix Camila up and she survived!
Since I was willingly stabbed I died anyways which was okay with me.

End of story.

Also Tony always did this really cute thing where he would say "heh" instead of "hah" and it was so funny.
I hope you guys see this, I love you <3

And as I'm writing this, the surviving people are from Camila's line!

(P.S sorry this was poorly written, it's pretty late rn.)

Well you said the exact words "pet rabbits". I know you did add the bit about farming but I was more making a joke of the fact you said "pet rabbits" tongue

But to get to the serious matter; first off, rabbits spawn in savanna, not desert. Second, I never said they shouldn't. Unlike most people on the forums, I try to avoid claiming to know exactly what this game needs to do or needs to avoid doing. I just merely said there's not really a reason to.

I was saying that rabbits are already pretty much set up as a farm in the first place, you just can't choose the farm location. Although, I do admit that it would be nice to be able to move the rabbit farm. However, on the other hand, I feel like that takes away some of the challenge and nuance. They kind of feel like water, iron veins, or trees. If you could uproot all of these and put them wherever, then it doesn't really matter where you set up. I guess now it's just a matter of whether you think that's good or bad.

Well, it is (basically) a life simulation after all and you can make a rabbit farm irl so why not in game. But Jason is god in OHOL so that depends on if he wants to make it a thing. And now you're just being picky with the desert thing, I don't feel like you had to point that out.

So, I have not tested this so this might not be true but;

I was born to an eve who left me so I ran off out to nowhere and I got bit by a snake. But there was a wolf nearby who bit me too and then suddenly then only bite a had was a wolf bite.

So, it only showed the wolf bite so maybe it only counted the wolf bite?

If this is true then if you ever get bitten by a snake and you know that the village doesn't have any anti-venom then try to find something else to bite you instead because it's much more likely that the village has a cure for that.

Feel free to test this out and see if it's true.

I think this is a really good idea but you should also be able to have pet rabbits. You could farm them like with sheep and kill and eat them and use the fur, people used to do that back in the day so I don't see why you shouldn't be able to do it in OHOL.

Yeah, I knew that was probably coming; even mentioned it in the original post XD

As far as farming them, there's really just no reason to. I mean, I guess if you're far from the savannah. But they are very different from the standard animals you can domesticate. I mean, they're basically set up as a farm right now; you just can't choose the farm location.

I don't see why you shouldn't? It's a bit of a waste of time just having to run to the savannah all the time to get rabbit fur. And the fur is very important to make backpacks and water pouches. And if it's far away it'll take a while to get back and forth.

And what do you mean you "mentioned it in the original post", all you mentioned there were pet rabbits and I'm talking about farming them for their fur and meat and killing them off like with sheep?

#115 Re: Main Forum » A prison » 2018-07-21 10:12:29

My masterplan:

1. Build a pretty big prison.

2. Steal a female child.

3. Feed her until she's grown up.

4. Get her to work on something inside.

5. Make all the girls she has work inside too.

6. Take all the boys and raise them and convince them to keep her inside of there, if they aren't cooperative kill them.

7. Make the boys do farming outside.

8. Repeat until you're old and you have a whole village of prisoners.

9. Get one boy that you trust the most to replace you and keep the tradition going.

So I went to check how many players were playing on the servers and then I saw that the player limit on the servers were only 40 players. Wasn't the limit like 80 before or am I going crazy? Maybe I've missed something, if I have can someone please explain why the player limits are so low again?

#119 Re: Main Forum » N/A » 2018-07-14 09:00:33

A while ago when the family tree update had just been implemented I was just browsing around to see if I could find any interesting families when I came across an eve. I clicked on her profile and it was the saddest and funniest thing I've ever seen. She had lived to 60 (I think) and in that time not had a single baby. But the most hilarious thing was that her last words were "I am hungry" which became her last name.

Just thought I would share.

#120 Re: Main Forum » Disabled summoning child » 2018-07-14 08:56:46

Do we really need to save villages that are dying out? It would be way to easy. I think villages should come and go, if we tried to save all of them there would be no room for more. So I don't see to reason for this.

#121 Re: News » Update: Twins » 2018-07-14 08:47:07

How do you actually spawn together with a friend? Is there a tutorial or something?

#122 Re: Bug Discussion » Can't get into tutorial with a friend. » 2018-07-14 08:45:43

I'm pretty sure you can't play with another player in the tutorial. It's a single player thing.

So, I don't know where else to get help with this so I figured I'd just post it here, hope it's not too off topic.

I signed up for the testing of the mobile version of OHOL (iOS) and to test it, you have to download TestFlight.

But when I clicked on "continue" there was a pop up that said:

"TestFlight Unavailable To use TestFlight Beta Testing, you have to be at least 13 years old."

But the annoying thing is that it says in the app store that it is 4+, but obviously that's not the case.

Is there any way to get around this? I really want to test out OHOL on the phone...

And for the record, I didn't set my age or anything on the app, it just wouldn't let me in.

#124 Re: Main Forum » OHOL for Mobile - Beta on iOS & Android Now!! » 2018-07-08 13:39:45

Would an iPhone 5 work too? I would really love to test out the beta

#125 Re: Main Forum » pond with duck in tutorial » 2018-07-08 13:32:42

How do you even break out of the tutorial, all I could see was the snake room and the little corridor that leads to nothing?
