Game Update 2015022303

Live Patch 2015022303

Features

  • Players now earn XP when harvesting dinosaurs, XP is based on damage share, dino score and a survival bonus. The survival bonus goes up with with each harvest and is reset on death. Player’s increase in level based on XP amount earned, the player level is not reset when dying.
  • Players now earn EG Tokens when harvesting dinosaurs, token amount is based on damage share and dino score. Tokens are not lost when dying.
  • An in-game shop has been added where players can use earned EG tokens to buy equipment between lives. The type of equipment available for purchase is tied to player’s level. Note that you still get a free bow, 10 arrows and a map fragment when spawning so unless you want two of these you don’t need to buy one every time you die.

    Important note on the server state of XP and Tokens: The system has been running on the live server for a couple of weeks for testing reasons, however with faulty settings. We reset the system last friday in preperation for the release once the correct values where in place but when you first run the game it may show a faulty amount of tokens and XP that reflects things earned before the reset. If this happens, restart the game to get the correct values.
