Concerning What People Will Be Building on Day 1...

Hey all! I am unclear as to whether or not there is some form of directory regarding what type of houses/lots people plan to open/operate on January 6th. In the original TSO, I was always appreciative of the players pl=who operated Skill Lots, and I figured I should give back by opening one of my own once the game is back in Beta. Of course, if there is already a backlog of people planning on doing the same, I do not intend on oversaturating a market.

With that being said, I want nothing more than to open up a Cooking Skill place ;)
 
Currently there is no such directory that I know of. We also don't know who much money we will start out with. Making planning these things in depth a little difficult. There is talk however about a city hall that will have amenities for beginning players.
 
Exactly what I was going to say. Currently the plans (I think??) are that there will be a City Hall where everything is available for people to start at. You can make money, skill, whatever then branch off and make your own lots once you have the money. Because the plan is that everyone will start with $0. Although I have heard if your a founder/there at day 1 you will be given some money to jump start things but not sure how much or if this is even true.

But really only Rhys knows what will be happening and what exactly is the plan and how he will handle Open beta and money and other things. And we will just have to see what he decides is ultimately the best course.

But to answer your question. I am betting day 1 is mostly people going to City Hall, making friends, starting to make money, starting to get their skills up, bug testing, and seeing how the server reacts to people being on. And depending on how popular day 1 is. Maybe even a few surprises especially if the lot reaches capacity and we will need more then 1 city hall so people can keep playing.

A small testing group is already bug and server testing. Meaning that for beta launch it should be pretty stable for everyone to have fun on and not worry about their progress being lost. I'm not saying that risk isn't there, I'm just saying it shouldn't be as likely! However I do see what you're saying. The lot limit hasn't been tested to my knowledge, and I think the highest number of players on a single lot might have been the initial play test hosted by Rhys himself. So it will be interesting to see how that plays out :p
