Which side are you on?
Vampires vs Werewolves... and Werepyres
Greetings friends! The Darkovia Designs, Inc idea thread has gotten so big it moved on to #3!!! We love reading your posts. Brainstorming wild and crazy ideas together... this is the best part of AE's games. We all know it is not possible to create every good idea*. We only have 5 days max before a release. But there is a good feeling in knowing that you are really part of the creative force behind AQWorlds. It makes the game special. It makes us unique. It also make us.... *OUCH!* Why did a member of the DF team just shoot me with a Nerf gun?
* What are you talking about? You guys have 5 whooole days (well, 4 since you actually have to release on Friday) to draw, animate, and code all of the new areas, monsters, weapons, armors, capes, helms, pets, NPCs, and cutscenes each week. That is plenty of time! (Oh, and possibly record some new music, add new functionality, and do your laundry. Oh man... we hope someone is washing Cysero's socks. He has a lot of them. P.S. Tell him, I want my left one back.)
DragonFable's BIG release of.... 1 Fish?
This has now been verified. DragonFable is scheduled to release only a single fish this friday, known as the Johnnyfish. Alll of our games have had very substantial releases every week for many years. So this has stirred controversy on the forums.... which in turn sparked a fued between the AQWorlds and DragonFable teams! I do not know what the full story is with this fish.... but on Friday, I am getting my DF fishing pole out**.
** Until then I am getting my armor of nerf bullet protection +1 out!
The PTR Update
The new interface is up on the Public Testing Realm! (Currently Members-Only) Please let us know what you think of the new backpack and shop interface -- and if enhancing items is easier for you now. As you know, enhancements now have stats on them. But on the dev server, we have a sword with a weapon proc working (chance of hitting for bonus fire damage.) We are on a tight deadline to finish the PTR and push it out to the live servers before the end of Darkovia. This is for two reasons.... #1.) We want to have full Vampire and Werewolf classes! #2.) Because, oh yes, we want to do a .... *OUCH!* I thought the entire DF team was at the beach... who keeps shooting us from that room? I think it is time to get my trusty nerf 6-shooter.....
Battle on friends!
Just like the AE Forums, AQWUniverse will be posting all of the AQW design notes. You can discuss your thoughts, feelings, and opinions in these threads.
