Watch This Planet Arkadia Update 2011.6 (18th October 2011)

Excellent! I can't wait to see how it is. When it was dark, it was DARK. And for a planet with 3 moons.... it shouldn't be so dark at night.

 

It's a LOT brighter than it used to be...

 

I am sweating in a team at celeste quarry and can't see a mob right in front of me. I have to use my mouse to find it. My graphics is in low mode thought.

 

Still no carabok texture blueprint?

 

Nope, i think Commodore Toán Harvir has to make a few more calls

 

still no cave system? I am confused, is it added or not yet?

 

Carabok Texture Blueprint is in game.. But you have to loot it or buy it.

Cave system is added by Courageous Firebase Academy and Resolute Firebase Academy.

There's also a cave that lets you travel from Celeste Harbour Military HQ to Celeste Quarry.

 

I drove through both cave systems but in the Courageous case took damage at the bottom level exiting into the oro spawn while on the track. It was only 0.9 but wasn't sure if it was from the track or the spawn above, if it was they've got a big damage range for a small mob.

Was only moving slowly at the time so it may have been the oro on the land above but couldn't see any that I had agro'd. Also on the way back in, turning left up the track to the room with the platform in the center missed the edge and got caught underneath it, lost about 1/5 of the total si.

 

Is there any update on Treasure mining?

First it was "it's not going to be ready during the launch of Ark". Well, ok. Then it was "probably" August but don't count on it. Then we found out it was underground...we even got the Ark Underground menu item in the Auction list. Then MA shined the light up our butts that the "biggest update ever" was going to be in Sept, no Oct. We'll Oct 18th is here and I don't see treasure and I don't see any updates on when treasure is expected.

I can see missing a deadline by a few weeks but as the deadline approaches, it would be nice to have an update. I can see missing a deadline by a mile but it would be nice to at least let ppl know. We'll, I hear, there was no actual deadline so nothing was really missed...but wink, wink, treasure will arrive sooner or later.

Does anyone have a realistic date on when the treasure system is expected to be implemented? Is treasure just vapor ware or should I check back in 2015?

 

In the cave at Courageous by the academy entrance, there will sometimes be oros spawned underneath the built path. That might be what it was.

 

is that what they meant by cave system I suppose I have misunderstood and was expecting new cave mobs, mining areas....

so it is just another structure dressed up as undeground. Is there a purpose for it? whouldn't it be more efficient to focus on treasure feature?

 

It's probably a prototype to test it on a live system to see how well it works.

The cave isn't a seperate area, you can still see things on radar above you, unlike the cave at New Oxford in vu9 where as you entered it cut you off from the rest of Calypso just like the service centers and buildings.

 

You can also mine inside the caves, if the find is outside easy to summon. Found several different ores and enmatters in them, including binary.

 

I liked the statue of professor Milton Lee. Nice touch.

 

Well, the update note says:

"Known Issues

• There is no Arkadia Material Texture Blueprint in the Technician, the Carabok Texture Blueprint will be found there in the next update."

http://www.entropiaforum.com/forum/...rkadia-update-2011-6-18th-october-2011-a.html

So there is NO carabok texture bp yet.

 

Yes there is.. Just not on the technician. Big difference.

 

have u seen it? What mats does it take?

 

I haven't seen it personally, but they were in the new items on the hof list yesterday.
