Weekly News!
Posted by Staff on 7 Nov 2017, 12:08 am
Hi all! This is just a news post to point out some of the stuff going on and keep everyone in the loop.
First of all, I've opened up a new discussion thread here regarding valour points and the tournament.
MOD-Thaleia has opened a thread to discuss reworking quests. You can find it here!
There's also a thread discussing the new exploration event which you can find here.
If you're looking to chip in your opinions about the contest overhaul, you'll find a thread for that here.
Next up, we've a new poll for you all: poll. - We're looking to see where players would like us to focus our development attention. Please note that voting for a particular option also includes the current bugs associated with that career - such as the permanent immunity issue, and various warrior-related problems. Once we've the results of this poll, we'll make a thread discussing the specifics.
As for other news:
- We've decided to go ahead with Custom Item Orders due to the results of the poll. The exact pricing details will be available soon.
- @MOD-Skulldiggery is working on a large exploration event to add to the roster. No ETA on this.
They're also pink now, for some reason!
- I have a new battleground planned, which will have highly randomised versions of existing enemies, along with a huge loot table. This will be released in a couple weeks (as I'll need to make new versions of each monster individually).
And for the sake of clarification:
- The previous polls are now closed.
- I've left their respective discussion threads open - please note that a potential sister site would not be funded or developed by Furvilla itself.; it would have been a personal project. At this stage, I've decided to shelf the idea.
- Crystals have been overhauled. They have significantly more stats, and cost half as many resources to make.
- Most users are comfortable with custom content, even if they aren't willing to purchase it, with over 50% of the poll indicating this response.
Finally, I've some important information regarding the Hallowed Potion:
We're working on a fix on upgraded pets losing their breeding charges. In the mean time, if you have a bugged pet, please send a TRADE to @Admin-Mat; please note that pets have their gender randomly assigned when they are created - if you necessary, you may be sent a Breeding Potion as well.
*Please include ALL your affected pets in a single trade*
Additionally, mini-pets that only listed colour in the menagerie are now fixed; if this is not the case in any instances, please issue a bug report.
Thanks for reading everyone! We'll be looking to do this sort of news post weekly to keep everyone up to date! Have fun!
So, will it truly be 'weekly' news? Still hoping to see a news announcement today! Lots to cover.
Nah it isn't a huge deal, the staff have enough on their plates already. I was mainly worried that it might affect their value but I doubt I'll ever take them out of my menagerie anyway.
Anyway back on topic, really great news update, it's exciting to see how much stuff is being talked about or worked on behind the scenes! ^-^
Lucid
I'd suggest actually sending Mat an email about it rather than just posting it here. It seems like it could be hard to keep up with every single comment in the News Articles.
I have some SR feathered serpents that are bugged, feathered serpents are sterile anyway though. But I'd kinda like them to just not have "+0" in the name as the normal feathered serpents (ones not gotten via the hallowed potion) didn't have that. Idk if I'd be wasting your time to send a trade though ^-^;
I just want to know who won the last two paintie contests...
Just exchanged all my glitched pets, thank you so much!
Thanks for starting weekly news! Definitely shows what's being worked on and input from polls being taken!
Also lots o interesting things :3
BRING ON THE CUSTOM ITEMS
Whoo hoo! I love fixes like this, and it's especially satisfying to see the longstanding bugs get worked on (like the menagerie thing). Means the backlog is finally being slogged through 0w0
Also super glad staff is taking the polls seriously and using them for the best.
Thanks for looking out for the users and working hard~ Oh do you have any plans to fix the bug with villagers not getting sick? I mean I'm not complaining about it lol but it's something that's been happening a long time.
