Hi all,

 

Here's the latest news from the studio about the planned updates to the game this month. December will see two game updates and more details follow below.

 

Game Update v1.24 - 11th December

 

We're going to be releasing the final 'Story-mode' dungeon (Terenul Rosu) this completes our journey of adding this mode to every dungeon up to the current level cap.

 

We've also got a new feature available where every bag in the game can be upgraded in size. An example of this would be if you wish to upgrade a Medium Backpack (1250 EP) to a Large Backpack (1500 EP) you would simply need to click the upgrade button and pay the difference in price (250 EP). With the introduction of this system we'll be introducing both 9x9 and 10x10 bags to the game. Additionally gold bags can indeed be upgraded into Eldevin point bags (saving you some EP!) We've also been listening to your feedback on this and as such we're planning to make all bags account bound in the next update. (Note the Steam and Founder's backpacks will receive a discount in price when upgraded the first time.)

 

This update will also feature a number of improvements to the Tutorial and Othalo to help introduce new players to game.

 

Game Update v1.25 - 16th December

 

Our Festive event 'Icicle's End' will return! However this year we're going to be bringing more to the event! If you didn't get a chance to join us last year, we'll be bringing back all the quests, creatures and items from last year. As well as this we'll be opening access to the Frozen Aerie, a brand new area where you will meet with a new foe as you discover new quests and rewards. We'll also be adding some new content to the Glacial Plains. Icicle's End 2014 will feature new pets, mounts, vanity gear, emotes and more! Be sure to have your winter clothes ready!

Awesome update here. I'm glad to see the idea of upgrading backpacks and the story modes. Is it possible to maybe do the same with Sacks and such? They're more or less the same (I know, 50 EP isn't too much), but for those players who don't purchase EP, it would be a more simple way to upgrade their way to owning sacks outside of trading with an EP player like backpacks are handled now as well.

i like the upgrading bp's idea, the update's look good 9x9 and 10x10 bp's would be great, i had thought founder bp's limited things tremendously but with how this is now, would it not be great to make founder and maybe even steam bp's something really high so u dont have this problem, like 16 x 16 and make them un upgradable to so u are fair to those that were lucky enough to get them, 10 x 10 is quite decent in size and at a later point if ever was in demand 12 x 12 who knows just speculation there, suprised people arent upset over founder bp's becoming achievable or am i missing something.

If founder BPs are unupgradable i will be upset. Spent a fortune getting all slots full with them. If someone can now upgrade theirs to the same size for a tiny amount...

Hopefully though, all will be well and founder/steam packs can be upgraded too, to a further point than normal BPs. They are exclusive and should stay that way.

i meant unupgradable TO, as in not achieavable to get to founder bp size and have them at like 16 x 16, i had heard people paid up to thousands of dollars for founder packs.

A little confused on how Founder BP's are upgraded... as in the discount price thing. As far as I know.. they were never bought with EP but with real life money.

And awesome, hopefully the changes will really be helpful for new players in Othalo.

Really glad to see Festive Event is coming back. I was thinking of suggesting this, but seeing as it's an event.... could our gear not degrade on death while in that event zone? Or at least reduced? :)

Yes I agree, I think.

 

Founder/steam packs should be set apart and either be higher than the highest upgradeable normal BPs by default. Or you have the ability to upgrade Founder/Steam packs further than normal backpacks.

 

The other alternative is to have the upgrade price from current large size to founder/steam size be about 20k EP, lol. But I dont think people would go for that...

I definitely agree with what you're saying here. Founder/Steam backpacks really should be a one of a kind, or stay the largest BP available and un-matched (whether you can upgrade them further can be discussed otherwise). 

 

Any other BP's should be smaller than them, but still able to be upgraded. I think it's a great concept that allows people to work on their characters/accounts.

agree, dunno if id wanna spend 20k on a founder bp but not my decision in regards to the founder packs being made available not being a founder(friend of hcs kinda) or hcs itself, one thing i would protest for is them being kept the top of the line and best of the best from what i know of them and whatever happened when founder pack issuing happened, we all know by now i like rare things even if i cant always obtain them, keeps cool factor :-)
