Massive Update and Reset
Hello Archlighters!Archlight Online will be releasing a massive expansion and wiping on June 10th, this means that the Archlight game servers will be going down May 27th 2016 until June 10th. Why have we decided to do this?Archlight Online is currently the largest custom project based off the Open Tibia Engine. We have had massive growth since first launch In August 2015. The past 9 months have been an amazing experience for our team, we have expanded from 1 part time developer to a strong full time developement team. This allows us to create the amount of content we do. We have all of you players to thank for this, your support, activity, and getting your friends to play has allowed Archlight to grow month after month.
The reason we have decided to relaunch Archlight is due to several reason, I will explain each briefly.
Player’s Request - More and more lately, we have been getting player requests (also forum posts, facebook posts, posts on many of our outside forum threads, and countless messages ingame) asking for a relaunch, for some this is due to hearing about Archlight 4 months in, and due to this they felt they were too far behind to actually be competitive, in some ways this is accurate, and it is difficult to catch up that late in.
Decrease in player activity. We had an exceptionally fast growth in the first 3 months of Archlight Reborn, we saw massive growth peaking at triple the players we ever had before Reborn, we broke many records and hit new peaks for a Custom OT Project, we feel we set the bar, and we will break that bar again in Archlight Age of War.
Big plans for Age of War. The biggest thing lacking in Reborn was events and reasons for players to Power Game. We had a massive lacking in pvp activity, due to Archlight being a primarily PvE game. This will all be changed in Age of War. Hense the expansions name. The PvE aspects of Archlight will remain strong, as it is the essence and heart of Archlight, however we will have 6 automatic rotating events 24/7 (every 4 hours an event will launch). This will include PvP events but also PvE events where level and gear does not affect your chance of winning. More will be explained about this in the PvP section. If we donated, do we get our points back?Yes, every single point you donated for you will receive back in Archlight Online Age of War. Players who own a custom house (that they paid for) will receive that same house back on launch. Additionally, any player who has the Flames Buff or Valentines Buff will also receive these on launch.What is coming in Archlight Online - Age of War!
