Providence Released!!!

draygin · #1 07-17-2002, 01:15 AM

We are planning on releasing Providence this Saturday. I'll add on the exact time when I get it but no earlier than 10am est.

With the new release there will be four kingdoms (names released with overworld) You can try and join any of the four or rp as a character with no affiliation. We have a multitude of unique jobs such as fishing as it has never been seen before on graal.
To keep RPing interesting we have many RP's preplanned that dont always involve other kingdoms or some any kingdoms at all. That way we'll be moving beyond attack kingdom kingdom attacks back. We've purposly made the towns fairly primitive to start of to help encourage RPing fortifying etc... Kingdoms will have to defended there lands from monsters bandits and what not.
We will also be releasing such things as battering rams etc.. Later on in the RP where a kingdom can make one and use it to bash in a gate. Although these will have to be precoordinated with staff and not just handed out to help insure it isnt abused. Long story short come check us out and stay a while this saturday. We've been working round the clock to get everything ready for your enjoyment. Also there will be mini quests of sorts rather than the previous way of kill monsters get enough jp go get item so there is more to do than kill baddies and RP. But these Miniquests arnt your every day quests since they're made with RP in mind. I might release a screen shot or two of a couple new things later on today when I get home. Just wait and seee. oh yes keep these two words in mind and you'll learn more about them later. "Rune Stones" (name subject to change)

-Madmartigan

//addon also I'm pming Stefan to have him reset all accounts so no one has unfair advantges with swords etc... From before.

Also if you find a staff multiclassing or abusing there powers in any way please tell me personally and I will take care of it.

If you come up with ideas please tell us we want to hear what you think would improve it as well. We rebuilt everything from scratch keeping in mind things we always felt needed improved but never got done.
Example: Nothing to do
Solution: A Multitude of RP's preplanned after the release. That can involve numerous kingdoms, A single kingdom or no kingdom at all.

Will there be boats?

That was my favorite part of Providence before, exploring the continents on a boat with my friends

Boats were fun, but I preferred the Cleric NPC which made you go super fast

Boats are broken at the moment. But we will do our best to have ready saturday. Might end up asking stefan for his version of the script if we get down to the wire. We have cannons added onto the current boats that fire etc.. I think adding that broke the script. Not completely sure it was broke before I became Co-Manager.

We've combined all classes to Thief Warrior and Mage. We felt rather than have 6 different classes with like 1 npc and as before some with no NPC's it would be more enjoyable for people to have a multitude of NPC's

Odd your gani is messed up. Or is that just a fluke? Also just so people know thats a test level so that isnt the actual fish graphics and the released level has more fish and stuff.

Thats just an example of what we have we wanted did our best to make everything unique in some way.
