Hey guys,
Following things have been changed:- The client's update process was improved. Fresh client downloads will now download files much faster, especially at higher pings.
- Clicking areas for ground items fixed. They were sometimes wrong when multiple items were on the ground. The clicking are of the largest item on ground is now the clicking area used for all other items on top of those.
- Castle-Wars maximum barricade formula changed. Larger teams are now able to setup more barricades and smaller teams less barricades.
- Guardian Angels no longer cost 1m, but 200 DP. I'm sorry, but 1m to protect your entire setup is just too good. I would like to bring back some danger to actually killing bosses (also re-introduces an item sink). It should also improve the market prices of expensive high-end gear. Moreover, when you buy a GA, you get a ticket that can be traded with other players. Effectively, you can now sell GAs to other people.
- GA tickets can now also be bought in Bolkoy's donator store.
- God bows are now attacking with the same speed as other shortbows again. I've reduced their accuracy from 100 to 92 to still make elemental bows viable in combat compared to god bows.
- Hunters' crossbow accuracy reduced to 92 from 100.
- Tormented demon drop tables reworked. You'll get more valuable items in general and the crystal drop rates have been doubled. The chance to get any crystal is 1 in 125, the chance to get a specific crystal is 1 in 500. (why? the drop rate of 1 crystal is 1 / 500, so 4 * (1 / 500) = 4 / 500 = 1 / 125)
- The Emps-World game loader has been updated. Let me know what you think about it:
(https://emps-world.net/img/updates/new_loader2.jpg)
Please bear in mind that you're not forced to use this new loader, I highly recommend using it though, because it gives you more configuration options. How to get it? Just re-download the game here: https://emps-world.net/Emps-World.exe - A new loading bar has been added to the client.
- The halloween logo is now displayed on the homepage and client.
- Female arrow drawback animation fixed. The arrow should now be displayed on the proper position.
All the best,
Thomy
EDIT: things I forgot to add initially:- Tormented demon deflect timer adjusted. Damage is only rejected when you actually see the flame cage. The deflect chance was also decreased, it's now 15% when not enraged and 25% when enraged (enraged = red skull).

Why didn't you just raise the price of GA? it could've been like 10m or so? maybe more? it will be around this price anyway coming from the Donator Store... There just aren't enough people donating to fulfill the demand..
-
OSRS here I come.
-
Regarding the GA: This is the biggest cause of the huge price drops of higher tier items, I hope you understand. You can still obtain the GA, just a little more difficult to encourage playing without it as this is the viable way of playing the game!

It's not meant to be something that you can easily get.
-
Good bye GA.
-
Why not just delete the whole GA system if you want to re-introduce an item sink.

Why was it even introduced if I may ask?
-
Because we used to have dcs and connection issues.

If we "used" to have them, then why not totally remove the GA now, that the issues are over?

Making Emps pay2win was a nice solution? Nice.

They are still here. Actually, more than before. Some people cannot even login to the damn game lol

In what way is that pay2win? In all honesty, the point of changing GAs, was to make them rarer. You don't need to spend money on progressing in the game. In fact, you can even just buy a GA ticket from another person.
If people are having connectivity problems, they are free to post in the bug reports, or open a helpdesk ticket. I answer every technical issue personally. I'm not aware of any connectivity issues currently, with the lonely exception of school computers of course... they block Emps-World from connecting. Though that issue is definitely out of my range of influence.

this update is a joke to me , specially when it comes to the GA ? why should i pay 200 DP just to get it? if paying 1m is too good to protect myself , then make it 5m? i honestly dont care. but 200 DP? i mean , not everyone can do that and if we can pay for it then im guessing its going to be expensive.
this is my point of view , if people will lose their items cause they boss and do other things cause they cant manage to get a GA , then they will stop bossing.. the will not do anything just to keep their bank , and then if they dont do anything like bossing , they're going to be poor at the end. which puts us in a bad situation. so simply , i think emps is going down.
i respect your ideas but i think you should also read our opinions and suggestions.
thank you.

You need money in this game to progress. GA saves you money.
If the connectivity issues are fixed, why not get rid of the whole feature then? It's still the people who donate who control the supply of the GA tickets.

You need money in this game to progress. GA saves you money.
If you're skilled in fighting bosses without dying then you progress in your value too, in a more sensible way.

Smoke Demon Champion is more RNG than skill based. Same with all the GWD bosses. You can't predict when they hit with melee, range or mage; therefore switching prayers is not on option. Fight Caves are probably the only place you need little skill to not waste your supplies in the early waves.
Oh, and a protection from disconnections isn't an available prayer yet.
-
i have many things to say about the G.A update.
first of all it's going to promote staking, as people are going to be afraid to pvm with a possibility of dc'ing or dying in a way or another, at that point staking is safer than pvm,which leads to many people quitting.
let me tell you something, when you made this update you thought about only the good points of it not the bad points,i mean we all know what emps community contains don't we?

Amazing updates!
The quality of the images placed on the loader needs to be improved and also the original loader looks better :)

The quality of the images depend on how much they are scaled up and/or down. Maybe I can do something to avoid the scaling at all, though, the images would remain small then. :)

Well, at least the current GA's we bought for 1m are still on; so thank you for that.
Too bad I was so lazy...now I'll never get a rod...(yeah, I'm not gonna buy it --------->cuz I'm poor)
Btw, when I saw the Halloween details added to the Background Image, I was sure you got a new holiday quest for us

That's something I'm definitely looking forward for! The past events have been really enjoyable :)

Nice updates, Thomy!

thanks thomy, hyped for the new loader, nice job as always.
kawaii, ignas.

I disagree with the GA changes. If you suck at some of the bosses you would like to try. you'll have to take the risk to lose your hole entire set? that means you can never try that one boss because you would lose your hole set which is worth everything for you.

Which part of the GA ticket did you not understand? They are tradeable, and their price will most likely stabilize around 5M.

Someone still have to pay money for it, so its kinda p2w.
-
Why are people complaining about bossing being more risky without a GA? Are you all so god damn terrible at PVM? GA should just get removed imo if the dcs are gone (idk if they are) because it just makes the game too easy.. there's no risk anymore
-
Good updates, glad we got the clicking fixed when trying to click on and item but it is too small.

God bows are now attacking with the same speed as other shortbows again. I've reduced their accuracy from 100 to 92 to still make elemental bows viable in combat compared to god bows.

RIP HUNTERS CROSSBOW...

OH MY DAMN GOD THE ACCURACY GOT REDUCED BY LESS THAN 10% FUCK LYFE TELL MY FAMILY I LOVED THEM
However, ranged is becoming worse and worse every update in PvM compared to melee... Maging Arma is already a better choice than ranging it lol.
-
Great Updates!
Sorry to bother but i'm curious about the GE, is it still planned to be included? how is it going?
-
Love the GA update.
Thanks Thomy.
