Dear fellow Arkadians, Due to computer problems I haven't been able to log in for over half a year now. Looking for a decent laptop right now and I aim to walk, talk and do shit again on Planet Arkadia before the end of this month. What has been happening in the mean time? What did I miss? I am asking for what has changed while I was gone. Updates from Planet Arkadia and the Entropian Universe at large (platform/ game wise). This is my planet from now on and I plan to stay here. So not asking for anything that has been going on at other planets. Because I might have forgotten changes made in the last month that I could play, let's take it that I've been away since may 2012. Yes, the news of the decennium has reached my eyes: Happy tenth Entropia Anniversary everyone!
Oh boy, that's a lot to say if you want us to tell you everything you missed. The biggest things I can think of are updates to avatar graphics, some updates to planet scenery, especially around the quarry, adjustments to shown mob levels on all planets, and so much more. We also have a new crafting interface, which a lot of people seem to love. You can see a lot of things in release notes, if you read them in the client loader or websites. Welcome back.
I've been reading a bit in the News of Arkadia. Sure, I've missed a lot and can't wait to come back. To sum it up for myself what I've missed and found so far: - Treasure mining (might have come while I was still here, but for sure can't remember - Instances, these are like the old Robot Missions or what? - New city, Aakas - Avatar update, I have the ability to create my avatar again when I log on for the first time in months? - New crafting, seen that in screenshots. Looks cool even though I am not a crafter. - Some new creatures, Riptor and more from the instances. - More missions, also to do with instances? - New items, including melee weapons wich I enjoy(ed) to collect and some great armour sets. - Adjustment of weapons, creatures and other things. I don't own a Herman weapon so might not effect me. But then again, I would have to relearn what I can and can't do evenhow. - Something called Arkoin, what is that? Something for an event that had been taken place? - Next Island doing poof! I don't care about other planets, but couldn't miss the jokes about the next big sale being the Next Island deed. Anxious to get back, but first I need to find myself a new laptop! Ard :dark::hail::dark:
You havent missed anything more then the usual. MA to this date STILL cant seem to get their shit together and they still follow the buisness model that the faster they take peoples money the better the buisness is. Each and every VU you missed was a total cluster fuck as always taking weeks to get back to minimal playability. They added a new feature where we can no longer trust them to NOT change stats on items people buy at their own discression thus enhancing the untustability in them to even think about buying high dollar items or properties. They still change everything to favor calshitzo so Jan Jr. doesnt get a failure complex when it loses money to incompetence and poor planning coupled with total lack of imagination. They still pull sneaky snake shit to counter anything good the PP's try to do for the game so Caly benefits the most. So all in all other then visual stuff you have not missed a single notable thing. Oh wait.. if you have ever played a pvp FPS game where modding is accepted you too can be an uber pirate in space now as they are not even enforcing any rules at all out there.
