Project Alpha Launching Poll

07/03/2015 13:24 bog18dy#1
Dear players,

We are at a crossroads right now and we ask your opinion on our current situation.

Further effort is needed in order to get a win8.1/ win10 fix, which means a delay in our release.

The question is, would you play with usb on win8.1/win10 and all other users from other versions of win can enjoy the game sooner. Or do we wait, try to get newer files or work on what we have.

Please give us your feedback.

Thank you.

P.S. The wipe will be done between phases, if that option will be voted and we will probably give a compensation to those who played on the previous phase.

That's what I think too, but I want the people to decide.

Launch the server, get your feet wet and get a player base going. You have the capabilities of resolving the Operating System issues it will just take time. In the mean time you can begin to take feedback from players and build a solid foundation for future changes (big or small).
You're no longer a staff of PA?

I'm sorry to hear that, condolences.

Agreed.
Immediate launch is being scheduled. We will go live asap.

The poll will remain open, but we are sure that the final result will probably remain the same as it currently is.

Thank you for everyone who voted so far.

P.S. No, win8.1/win10 users you are not left out. After going live we will focus on bringing PA to those platforms too. For the time being, we will provide a tutorial on how to setup win7 on an USB of at least 4GB and carelessly play on PA assuming you will like our server and want to go to a bit of effort (aka waiting 15 min for installation xD) in playing.

I can't wait this, I am going home tomorrow so I will have plenty of time to play.
07/04/2015 18:39 duracelx9#13
Me too. I'm checking the forums every 15 minutes xD.
07/04/2015 19:11 senatovici#14
Hahahhaha :D It is exciting so you have an excuse.

We are left with some of the new skills.

Currently we have done the following:
-forum/webpage
-registration page
-wiped DB
-cleaned resources/collections/quests
-fixed green stats for sets
-fixed MS
-added some of the new skills (and revamped some of the old ones)
-characters will get 2nd role, basic LF and custom epi on creaction
-nerfed ck roles for 1st phase
-made minor role changes (you will notice them :D )
-removed def sets (we will see how that goes)
-added gifts
-set lv cap to HM1
-removed SrS
-removed M&D completely (it's abusable and we don't like that)
-removed dupe abuse which was reported
-removed masteries
-made minor changes on interface/fixed graphical issues such as red square on 2nd role skills/ visual things (yes we used the KR writings for it, added that event logo which was missing if anyone cared xD, removed LD exit to icy etc)
-made our own launcher
-removed traps
-server capacity will be set to 120 for the beginning, if we somehow get our sever full we will increase the capacity
-server has been already up for a good 2 months, so it is needless to say that we have it. It is a lagfree server, european based one and with high specs.

P.S. Win8.1/win10 users, sadly, for now you'll have to take a look at this :
if you want to play the server. The process is quite easily imo.
