Hey all,
I hope everyone is doing well and have enjoyed the release so far, we've been super busy answering questions, fixing bugs and making small tweaks here and there.. we feel like the release was a massive success with very little downtime overall (compared to previous version releases). Just so you guys understand we are still in BETA and still tweaking/changing things, we are aware of some skills being completely out of whack and others that need a slight touch up. We're slowly changing things each day and trying them out, gaining feedback and making further changes.
Here is a small plan of some changes to come this week, which didn't quite make it into the initial release:
- Shops and Villager trading around the town, currently the dock/shop area is completely empty of Villagers but we plan to populate those areas this week! Villagers will only accept the trading currency gems, so make sure you stock up!
/gem- VIP Acrobatics training/Shop, as VIP have been asking/requesting those will be updated next week also!
- Coupons throughout the entire week I will be working on sending out ALL of the coupons to the respective players and ensuring all players are able to redeem them without issue, I'll be around helping and answering PMs if you have any issues regarding those.
- Guest area and tutorial will be shaped up and ready for launch, to give those new players a good understanding of how Noobstown runs!
- Game statistics, game statistics will be returning at some point next week! ~ Wonder who has made it to the leader boards thus far!
- Further additions to the Donation store
- We'll be trialing some more of our spawn games, such as horse racing, spleef and pvp related fun!
- Ironing out bugs with the Chunky system
- Preparing for Town creations and helping support mayors in anyway we can!
- Kick starting the Theater booking system!
- Auction statistics (Might not be next week, but coming soon)
- Auction tweaks (Messages when you have sold items/how much you earn etc!)
- Probably missed more.. but expect more fixes and general maintenance!
Next weekend will also be Valentines, we don't plan to completely transform spawn this time due to the whole release but you can expect some Valentines related events and fun! ~ We've got some exciting plans!
I would just like to personally thank you all for your dedication to the server, we were a little overwhelmed on Friday night.. so much support and love for this little thing we call 'Noobstown' but alas, the server has re-opened and is back on its way up to 24/7 up time! We hope you are all settling in and enjoying yourself, we've worked so hard on everything, and just can't express how happy we are to see players finally getting to grips with all the new features!
We've also discussed possibly lowering the time before we allow guests online due to how smooth the release has been so far, so we might be opening to the public a day or two early
Anyway, before this turns into a complete waffling post.. I hope you continue to enjoy the server, I will be around trying to catch up with you all and checking your progress!
See you in the server (I can actually say that now.. win!)
Noobscraft,
