The coders did not realise that lobsters turn red ONLY AFTER THEY ARE COOKED!!!!! I am riding on a cooked lobster, and the bubbles are not air, they are the steam bubbles from the boiling water. Is there any chance of having the color corrected to the normal dark green one sees on live lobster?

    Exotic lobsters in shades of blue, white, yellow, black, and red have been reported from time to time since the earliest lobster harvests.

    (It's exotic)

    Nice article, but of the Thousands (really) of live lobsters I have seen, not one was red.

    Well, when you put it that way...

    I've also never seen someone riding a leopard with armor. Never saw a Manta ray that could fly miles up in the air, never saw mutated glowing purple or white horses, lion with radiation exposure, green lions, fox with 3 tails, fish moving out of water and etc, etc, etc.

    ....were you under the impression that mounts in this game were realistic? Dinosaurs are extinct, horses don't glow or are they on fire or purple, kirins don't exist, lions aren't green (or flaming or glowing), foxes don't have three tails (or nine). The only semi-realistic mounts in this game that I've seen were the regular horses, panda, polar bear and the panther mount.

    what bothers me is the long grey stripe that goes from the lobster, up into the sky, to who knows where. and the whirling grey thing behind it. whats the deal with that? God put them on leashes, or something?

    here are pics of two i saw last night...

    Woah, darn those big screenies.

    Anyways, that doesn't happen with me, although a lot of people told me about it.

    Despite quite a number of people having this problem the GM's claim it is "entirely the fault of our graphics and driver" so it's extremely unlikely they'll ever fix it =/

    Basically it's a bug, an incompatibility issue with the lobster graphics and certain hardware or software, and they don't want to fix it -.-

    deer and elephant are semi-realistic too.

    Forgot those two. But still, there's a high amount of unrealistic land and flying mounts (don't even get started on those). So expecting them to all be realistic is kind of silly in a fantasy game.

    HA!!!

    thats the same song and dance they did when they screwed up the landscape graphics earlier this year. they were trying to blame it on us, not the fact that it happened after a bloody update.

    that pass the buck mindset makes me really mad.

    If you're riding a boiled lobster that is currently still being boiled.... wouldn't that mean you're being boiled along with it? b:shocked

    More aptly said ; they are unable to fix it, like the so many bugs in this game already reproted years ago in other versions that were never fixed.

    Simply put : the chinese devs making this game are not very good at their job. PW China probably hire jobless underskilled developpers to save money.

    Actually kirins do exist, though not the legendary variety. Kirin is actually the Japanese name for giraffes. Kind of odd that they use the Japanese spelling of it for a Chinese game though, the Chinese spelling would actually be Qilin.

    Actually I had similar problems with games like KotOR before I installed a video card. There's really not much that can be done to fix issues with being incompatible with hardware, usually trying to do so will just create new issues so it's just not worth the effort.

    You've proved nothing since we're not talking about giraffes here...

    Although... that would be a cool idea for a mount, rofl.

    They said kirins don't exist, they technically do, a kirin is a giraffe. The legendary version of the qilin may not exist, but their real counterpart do.

    yeah the lobster mount does have a grey line but it always point at me,i find it hard to beleive that its on our end considering nothing else does that no other mounts either and considering i have a 2gb video card thats just been installed,it would be really nice if the ugly lobsters didnt point at me.
