Invite Round Seven

Submitted by zodium on Thu, 03/11/2010 - 18:08

We've just sent off a new batch of invites to another 750 lucky beta applicants! Congratulations to everyone who got in this round - if you didn't get in, just hold tight, because we'll be doing one of these every week for a while.

Additionally, it is now possible to invite people directly from the Community Forums by clicking on their profile (there will be a button to invite the user), without knowing their email - hopefully, this should make it unnecessary for people to share their email on our forums in beta key giveaways and contests.

See you in Dawntide!

Talk gameplay, bugs and suggestions with developers and other players, as we frequently join the discussion or listen in there. We recommend you use either mIRC or the ChatZilla plugin for Firefox to connect.

We hope to see more of you there. Smile

Patch 2.6

Submitted by Wiz on Mon, 03/08/2010 - 17:44
  • The UI has gotten a complete overhaul and should now be much nicer to look at.
  • Implemented day/night cycles. Currently a day is very short (30 mins) and it's always noon when you log in, but this will be moving to a server controlled system with longer days shortly.
  • Added object deeds. These are deeds for furniture and other large immovable items that you can only place down in a house you or your faction owns. The carpentry recipes for Wooden Stool, Wooden Chair and Wooden Table will now produce deeds.
  • Added several new carpentry furniture recipes.
  • Added carpentry recipes for two types of ships, the riverboat and the dhow. Ships must be placed near water and are built in a similar way to how buildings are constructed.
  • Fixed a crash bug related to ladders inside player built towers.
  • Fixed some bugs with warehouses.
  • You should no longer fall through boats when trying to stand on them.
  • Guards are now hostile to bandits.
