The cu is live. It was delayed 24 hours, in which I ground up another chef level. Now we get to experience the "joys" of the cu.
First off, I was prepared for the icons to change. I read about them in the forums, but good gravy, I was NOT expecting them to be THAT different from the rest of the HUD. They're...jarring. They used to be monochrome, inobtrusive. Now they're full-color and in-your-face. And some of them are animated. Bouncy bouncy bouncy....time to find a new icon for my dancing macro. Luckily I'm not combat, so I can replace most of my icons with hotkeys for my crafting and survey tools.
So far, the biggest inconvenience I've had was the loss of my waypoints. But I lucked out in that I stumbled across my harvester on my way to town, so yay, no lost harvie. 15k of flowers, too.
So far, not too bad. But I also haven't had to go too far out of town, either. I've heard reports of people being killed by durnis, though.... A durni is a cute little rabbit-looking thing.
I'm looking forward to next week, double-xp week. If I work hard, I can master chef in that time. Now if I could find a tailor to make me some crates of synthetic cloth and reinforced panels...
