    Real life, nah that game sucks big time. It's a stupid game where you have to spend 5 -6 days a week at work, pay bills and even sleep. Entropia Universe is much more fun, but at 3am I have this annoying problem of nodding off LOL!

    Entropia Universe 12.5.4 Release Notes
    HoF / Global Messages
    First discovery in dungeons / instances (Hall of Fame)
    Loot boxes in dungeons / instances (Hall of Fame or Global)
    Misc
    Unwanted non-tradable items can now be disposed of by selling them to the Trade Terminal for zero PED.
    New Space Creatures
    Several new entities have been detected in local space sectors. Pilots are strongly advised to use caution when travelling between planets.

    • Locusta
    • Skyflail
    • Dymlek
    • Hermit
    • Dropship
    Deposits
    Initial deposit limit for all new accounts has been increased to 50 USD.
    Users who make their first deposit via 3Dsecure have their deposit limit increased to 3000 USD.
    Arrival Areas & Mentors
    Mentors with at least one graduated disciple can now teleport directly to the new player arrival areas from any teleporter, with the following conditions and limitations:

    • The mentor will be able to choose from either the Genesis new arrival area or an arrival area connected to the planet where the mentor is currently located (if applicable).
    • The mentor will be placed in the new arrivals instance with the highest population.
    • The mentor will not be able to bring any items into new arrivals area; the new arrivals default inventory will be loaded instead.
    • The mentor will have the ability to recruit new disciples while in the new arrivals area.
    • To exit the new arrivals area the mentor should use the teleporter in the new arrivals area, which will return the mentor to the same teleporter that was used to enter the new arrivals area.
    • When exiting the new arrivals area, the original avatar inventory will be reloaded.
    Creature Upgrades
    The following creatures have been upgraded with new models, textures and animations:

    • Osseocollum
    • Kerberos
    Voice Chat
    When joining a team, the private team channel is now activated by default, in place of the proximity voice channel. Users still have the ability to use the proximity channel by making use of the proximity chat button.
    Team voice and proximity voice channels no longer interfere with one another, and it is no longer possible to transmit to both channels simultaneously.
    Account Security
    An excessive number of failed logins to the Entropia Universe account website will cause an IP to become blocked for 30 minutes.

    • Motherships no longer become invulnerable for 5 minutes after aborting warp sequence.
    • It is no longer possible for two avatars to enter the Feffoid cave simultaneously.
    • An issue that caused avatars piloting vehicles to take damage when the vehicle was fired upon has been corrected.
    • An issue causing flickering animations when firing weapons in certain situations has been corrected.
    • An issue causing inadvertent teleportation to incorrect locations when using mindforce teleport chips has been corrected.
    • Coordinates in the radar HUD now display correctly.
    • An issue related to searches made within the Achievements interface which prevented the opening of other tabs has been corrected.
    • The sound effect heard when an avatar takes damage from a creature has been adjusted.
    • When coloring a vehicle, attached turrets are now also colored.
    • An issue making it possible to equip two armors to a shopkeeper simultaneously has been corrected.
    • The color of the Ninja Hood Jacket Black (M) & (F) items has been corrected.
    • The loading time of the Friend List has been reduced for participants with many friends.
    • Several instability issues causing client crashes in certain situations have been corrected.
