Update Notes / Updates 28/04/2015

« on: April 27, 2015, 11:18:11 am »

Hey guys,

Thanks for testing the Grand Exchange in world 3. I hope you were having fun there not risking any items and running around in the entire Emps-World? I'll fix all bugs on the Grand Exchange next week. If you find bugs/issues on the GE, please post them here.

List of updates:

• Veteran gifts disabled. Old accounts no longer get 1mil cash and a rune armour when they existed in Emps-Scape. Too many people are abusing hacked account password lists to claim multiple veteran gifts. People banned for looting veteran gifts, may now appeal their bans in the helpdesk.
• Godwards interface is back.
• GE fixes. (duping, item search, etc...)
• Name changing system started. I plan to release that after the Grand Exchange.
• Donation logging system updated.
• Several bugfixes from the bug report section.

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates 26/04/2015

« on: April 26, 2015, 08:46:20 am »

IMPORTANT: Please restart your client for this update, it's mandatory for viewing multi combat zones!!


Hey guys,

I've updated major parts of the client's cache downloading procedure. The update was made, because the system was sometimes having bugs that wouldn't let your map finish loading. Moreover, you can now also toggle an option at your Game Settings that downloads the entire cache in background. Just for clarification, Graphic Settings was renamed to Game Settings, because we have a lot of different settings there. Once that is finished, you'll never experience long loading times in new areas! That process probably takes some hours, because it's slowly running in background, not touching your client's performance. There are also fps boosts for those of you who use the highest 2 rendering distance settings. Your fps rates shouldn't decrease that much anymore when completely zooming out.

Besides, I've also added a proper icon that shows if you are in a multi combat zone:


I'm sorry to say that, but the GE still requires more testing. We really can't have any serious bugs in that system! Though, we'll have an open beta in our test world soon. Where everybody can try out the system and tell us what they like/dislike!

All the best,
Thomy

Debates / Re: Which iPhone 6 or iPhone 6Plus color do you prefer to have?

« on: April 24, 2015, 10:47:24 pm »

This is actually so stupid.. I've owned almost all the iPhones' verisions, starting from 2011 till now, the total breaks in the iPhones I have owned were only 2 and I rarely drop them.. so how come you manage to say that, you need to have some experience with smartphones so you'd realize that watching videos and listening to others' bullshit over this product is just to prevent others from buying this product. And come on? How can you live without owning a smartphone I mean that's pretty hard for me, I use it all the time to Chat, Call, Play games and other things.
All I can say is that some people say that just because they don't have the opportunity to own one even thought those products are cheap nowadays.

I've owned an ipod touch for about 5 years, i've dropped it 2 times, and i've broken the screen 2 times. You can't get around the fact that the touch screen is made out of bloody glass, hell, the iphone is almost entirely made of glass on the outside. I've also seen 17 iphone breaks happen in front of me at school, then there's about 20 I missed. (within the span of ~2y)
On the other hand, i've only seen 3 andriods break in front of me, and 1 i'd missed. Of course this data doesn't really matter on a global scale, and it definitely depends on what people use the phone. But I rest my case, even if you're careful, dropping the thing will definitely cause it to break. You've broken two, that's still two phones broken. If something is that expensive, shouldn't they at least make it bloody durable?

600 bucks is definitely a bloody waste if you can get a tablet you can fire at with a paintball gun and the glass still won't break. I mean c'mon, who doesn't want to fire at their electronics with paintball guns. Yet apple makes a bloody 600 dollar phone and gorilla glass still is unheard of.
Tablet vs paintball

I've had enough opportunity to get a smartphone, I just refused, even the ones I was offered for free. Pretty much everything you do on your smartphone, I do on my pc or laptop. I bloody hate looking at some small screen all day, i'd much rather get on my desktop. Mobile games aren't really something you should get a smartphone for either.

Buying an iphone is more of a status symbol of wealth nowadays, for anyone actually wanting to get a smartphone, i'd recommend staying the hell away from apple, you'll just be blowing money.

Thank you for the amazing speech, now let's go back to the main subject and it is about what colors you prefer.

Black.

Events / The official emps-world hunger games

« on: April 23, 2015, 05:05:41 pm »

Congratz Simonyoda3 for winning the first hunger games

Please read the topic very carefully!

After some testing we're happy to announce that the hunger games are gonna come to emps. This will be a survival/pvp based event in which 24 players can participate. I plan to host these on a monthly basis, date and time will be announced later. The games will mostly be a test of how well the players know and can travel around the wilderness, picking up resources they could use to gain an advantage. You'll enter with a set of tools so that you can gather materials and turn them into gear, the rest is entirely up to you. As for the prizes, the winning team will recieve 1b cash. Which will be split between the two if both are still alive.

Rules

• You are not allowed to leave the wilderness
• No using the teleporting obelisks inside the wilderness
• The last team or person alive will win the games
• You're allowed to kill everyone, including your teammates

There will be a total of 24 spots. You can enter as a team or alone, if you enter alone a random participant will be assigned to you. If you have participated in the round before the next one, priority will be given to others as access is kind of limited. To enter send a pm to this link, once you're a registered candidate you'll just have to wait until the next games start. You will pay the entry fee before entering the games.

Update Notes / Updates 22/04/2015

« on: April 21, 2015, 01:31:39 pm »

Hey guys,

I've got quite a big change planned for today, so please take your time and read through everything. First of all, DOUBLE XP WEEKENDS are coming back!! We've had a long discussion on this and decided that toplists aren't working out for us. So we're getting rid off them and are re-introducing the loved double XP weekends. Don't be sad though, the voting shop doesn't disappear, we're renaming it to 'event shop'. You can gain event points by participating in special events or we will reward you in future competitions with event points. Event points will act the exact same way as voting points! All the voting points you currently have are automatically turned into event points.

Further double XP weekends will act as achievements. For instance, if we get additional 100 likes on Facebook, we'll have another double XP weekend. The same thing can be done with following us on Youtube or Twitter. In general, we'd like to get more in touch with social media. Our plan is to offer a possible double XP weekend every week.

Another aim is, that we want to make PK as fun as it used to be. We'd like to have your opinion on this topic. What do you think could introduce more people to PKing? I'm already  introducing a PvP point system. It can already be tested in the live game. There may be slight changes to point gains and losses, but the overall system is pretty much done.

Currently, PvP points will only be shown in the wilderness. In the final version we'll make them togglable everywhere. I'll also setup hiscores very soon for PvP points. Would you enjoy if we resetted these points on a monthly base for more competition in the wilderness? Or would you rather keep your PvP points forever?

Moreover, since the demand of 'rares' (items that can only be obtained once at a special point) is high, we're willed to introduce more to the game. These new rares are going to be more common than our bug lanterns, bunny ears and bow-swords. I can't say much about it yet, but we're planning the release already!

On top of that, I've got a list of changes ready:

• IMPORTANT: Due to the massive amount of complaints regarding teleports in the wilderness, I'm reverting that update. Teleports no longer save you from dieing inside the wilderness. However, outside the wilderness teleports safe you.
• Dharok axe attack speed reverted to 4 seconds (0.5 secs slower than it was). I've increased its accuracy from 131 to 151 though.
• Colored dark bows and gnome scarfs are now tradeable.
• Vengeance can now be used every 30 seconds.
• The Tyras guard can now also be found at the GE. He teleports you to Castle-Wars, Pest Control, Burthorpe or Duel Arena.
• Item models updated for PC tokens and CW tickets.
• 5 new capes added to CW reward shop.
• Colored dark bows are now properly usable.
• EDIT: Hiscore images updated to match the in-game skill images. PvP Points added to hiscores.

I'm sorry, but GE isn't yet ready for a public beta! We're currently testing the final version in a closed beta. When we're 99.99% sure that there aren't any abusable bugs, we'll immediately make it public!

All the best,
Thomy

But wait! There's more! For JUST 1.5-2m you could get an AMAZING abyssal WHIP! Just THINK, it costs atleast 10 MILLION geepees less while the ONLY downsides are that it has 1 LESS maxhit and you cant train strength with it! But that's not a minus, is it? EVERYONE knows that only beginners rely of BRUTE force! True combat masters don't NEED strength to lash at their opponents! They just lash at their vulnerabilities!

Introductions & Farewells / Farewell [temporary]

« on: April 19, 2015, 03:40:17 pm »

Joke!

I'm very busy with school this semester. I don't have much time left to spend on Emps [unfortunately].
And so I'm ''quitting'' for this semester, I might come online now and then but not often. I really do enjoy this server, but I don't have the time for it at the minute. I will miss those typical moments I've had with people. But school is more important =)
I will be regularly online on LoL, add me if u want to chill with me: RicardoMagician

Good luck and have fun playing! =)

EDIT: you might find me here too: www.plug.dj/emps-world

Update Notes / Updates 20/04/2015

« on: April 19, 2015, 12:30:02 pm »

Hey guys,

Please note that some of the updates today are only visible when you restart your client. A client restart forces a client update, that's why!

Following things were changed:

• Castle Wars will no longer eat your weapons when picking up flags. If you're still missing a weapon, go to the helpdesk.
• Ring of vigour changed. It no longer gives 20% extra tickets in CW and PC. It now reduces special attack costs by 10%. That means a korasi special attack would cost 54% equipped with a ring of vigour, instead of 60%.
• Special attack bar updated. It now shows how much special attack energy you've got left in %.
• Korasi's special attack is now a magic attack.
• Morrigan javelin attack speed increased from 3 seconds to 3.5 seconds.
• Pest control base tickets changed from 50 to 25.
• Leather items have received bonuses.
• Barbarian, goblin, mage and archer drop tables reworked (the ones around barbarian village). They're now dropping useful items for beginners. (equipment up to level 40 excluding rune!)
• Tree spirits removed and replaced with archers and mages. (Tree spirit slayer task was also removed)
• The anvil in Galahad's house can now be used after completing Barbarian Assistance.
• More barbarian archers were placed around the village.
• Hundig now wears a Seercull instead of a shortbow. That makes it easier to identify him in his house.
• Hundig is now a slayer master. You don't need member to get slayer tasks from him. However, he only assigns monsters around the village (mages, archers, goblins and barbarians)
• Combat levels of goblins, archers, mages and barbarians is now 10.
• Meteora (lunars) and Dark Mage (ancients) can now be found in Edgeville too.
• Minimizing the client now completely pauses in-game rendering. That should fix problems where the client crashes for some people when they minimized it.
• ::fpson / ::fpsoff was replaced by a graphic setting.

For those of you who aren't following us on Facebook/Twitter: I've also updated the graphics interface.



All the best,
Thomy
