Hey Everyone,
Hope you had a great weekend! This week we plan to resolve last remaining game-breaking issues with two major updates for you - one for today and another for Thursday.
In today`s major update we looked into fixing most of the bugs and issues reported by players, giving priority to the more game breaking issues. To fix the last of it though we will be adding a whole new player claims system on Thursday.
Also please keep in mind that we will need to do a wipe on Thursday. We do not expect another wipe in the next foreseeable future, and there are many good reasons to justify doing a wipe this Thursday... to name a few:
- It`s time to consolidate servers - as they can now support higher player population per server
- We`ll finally have all the exploits fixed - right now quite a few players have millions of credits
- New claim systems will fix all the problems from player bases being located all over the place lie in towns, tutorial areas e.t.c
With that said, lets look at what today`s update has to offer...
And so - presenting Update # 6 (0.69)
