[Germany] [Custom] Necronia ❂ Open-Beta Now

[Synnical]

But the question, is what does the letter say

#NOHAX *throws monitor*

 

[Gorgul]

Just do it shiva!

 

[Father Wisdom]

ahahahahahahahah

 

[Arkangel39]

Fresh account, fresh start....

 

[Shadowsong]

I'm sorry guys, yesterday while I was working I received some troubling news about a family matter which I had to attend, which is why I was away for the rest of the day. I couldn't have known that would happen. It will probably take me a few more days to deal with that, but I will do my best to put the server up today, which is why I woke up at 6 AM to work on it.

Thank you all for the patience.

 

[m3ssy1]

Soooo... seems like the server is online

@edit
closed again
I will just wait for Shiva's reply then I guess...

 

[Shadowsong]

The server is up and you can start logging in.
If it happens that a character is missing from your account, it has either been quarantined or deleted.
The list of wiped characters has been posted already, the others may send a message to Shiva/Silence to learn why their character was quarantined and what can be done to have it returned.

I truly hope we will not be forced into similar situations again and that you as a community will take better care of your characters as well as the server itself, since it's your gameworld as much as it is ours. Delaying its release with these shenanigans doesn't help anyone, just does damage.

See you all on Necronia, more news will be posted soon on what happens next in terms of development and bugfixes.
The latest list of bugfixes can be found in the changelog.

 

[Destruckto]

cant log in it says connection failed? need to download again?

I see you're online so I'm gonna assume you fixed your problem.

 

[Dastan]

I am sorry to hear that shiva, take a few days off of the server since that is no way near important as your family, let the other deitys fill in for you.

Neznam sta se desilo ali zelim ti sve najbolje.

Where is the list of whom got banned?

 

[RazorBlade]

Where is the list of whom got banned?

Yeah he's alive, we're speaking right now. We are about to start removing characters as soon as Silence is back online, which should not be long.
The list of offenders is as follows:

Scheduled for deletion (the punishment will be applied to every other character on the account of offenders):
Da Vincii, Meme, Synnical, Aywen, Blazztukky, Venom, Goddess Kali, Alchemist, Dollyndo, Relvyn, Tortua, Ark Flass, Sieglino, Zekksz...

Scheduled for quarantine, questioning, or item fixes/removal:
(In case of a single bugged item or accidentally bugged item(s), the item will be removed and replaced with a regular version of it with some compensation in terms of Hollow Augments, etc.)
Basically, some people from this list may or may not be offenders, while others simply are in possession of a single bugged item that was not abused and needs to be removed, the cases are very varying though.

Homie Quan, Serenity, Tabun, Uber Joshua, Cruelflix Warrior, Hisoka, Draky Lucas, Rakshasha, Xaze, Rawcus, Abaddon, Nureha, Dagoon, Fanco, Hawks, Sapphirepig, Acu, Hiago, Ms Evil, Soman, Szeryfka.

Over a thousand characters were investigated and we believe we managed to narrow the list down to contain all the cases of serious abuse. Something may or may not have slipped through our fingers, but it will come up eventually as these things are easy to detect, especially in low quantities of abuser characters.

By publishing this, I mean no disrespect, even though it has harmed the progress of the testing. The list is here so you can see if you're on the list and know what's happening, though I'm aware that those who have abused are also aware of their actions without me saying anything. Anyone interested in more details about what will happen to their character/account can PM me.

I must say I abused and I am not on the list.
My character's name is Yuno. She got no helmet and probably shield or spear, it is on venoma without even backpack.
Check venoma's and main city's depot and you will find some tons of money and probably gems.

I am doing so because I understand the harm I did with the server and I intend to back playing, since I really like Necronia and it was never my intenttion to harm the server or delay its devolopment.
Since others players got punished, I see no reason of my character getting no punishment.
Again, I am sorry for what I did, it was purely for the pleasure of enjoying de game fully and fastly with my friends.

Well, please, delete Yuno. I am gonna back playing with another character and I will let everyone know who will be as soon as I am able again to play.
Regards, Yuno.

RIP Spearman. 1/3 damage of auto attacks and all cooldowns doubled.

Spearman need to be reworked entirely instead of just making them worse and worse over the pasted 6 months. The event town was overrun and I couldnt clear them at lvl 43 and I couldnt even kill chakoyas anymore. Not to mention my house drained all of my GP from the bank except for 8k.

We did have your character on the list, but I have no clue how it managed to slip. As with all things, mistakes happen, and I thank you for admitting this.
I'll see with Silence to apply this punishment and hopefully you'll keep up the good spirit. Cheers.

Maybe because you got used to hitting 1000s of damage when the formulas were broken, you are used to being so powerful, but spearmen now that spearmen are actually the way they're meant to be (in terms of dealing damage with spears), get used to playing and testing them like they were supposed to be in the first place. I can not erase the memories of people who remember being OP, but I can lay out the tons facts and numbers, if you will really ask me to waste my time on that, and present you the formulas that not just spearmen, but every weapon is using right now.

I worked on these formulas for a long time now and everything should be pretty balanced in practice as it was in theory, and the miss chances are only improved.

Anyway, spearmen themselves will receive changes in their spells as every other vocation in the upcoming patches, but i was around to see how they perform (during the day since the server launched this morning) and i'm very happy to see that the performance is pretty much identical to my calculations, which is good and means that things are finally under the control of scripts I wrote and not some RNG or scripts that I had no idea what they actually did.

Just finished a long work session, managed to close around 40~ bitbucket reports, pretty happy with how productive this day was.
Changes can be found in the changelog and will be applied as soon as the next restart happens, aka 7 hours from now unless some crash (god forbid) happens.

Gonna keep working on bitbucket issues for a bit more to close down some nasty bugs before I proceed with my workplan because this has been piling up for too long and I feel like it's overdue to fix some of these things.
I'll probably write a rather large news article soon explaining the details of what happened to all weapons, and what will be happening to all vocations including which changes specifically you can expect, and most likely a download for the 1.20 client which brings some very helpful features.

And of course, announce a new team member, though it's not hard to guess who it is.

See you all soon!

Just because a few high level spearman (some of which even allegedly abused bugs) hit that much doesnt mean we all do. Every spearman around lvl 40-50ish that i spoke to is having trouble hunting anything proper for their level. I was using a military spear and without spamming spells, I would have died versus a party horn.

Good thing I stayed on sattynr, even with a good choice of weapons that Ive enchanced with Crit relics and damage relics, even accounting for monster elemental weakness I still couldnt do enough damage without eating a ton of potions to kill one of the healing chakoya's.

I dont know about other people, but I was never hitting for that much back then and I have trained my rangery.

I gotta ask some things @Shadowsong
A friend got no graphic board, but yet, he can run PXG OTClient with around 40-50 FPS.
with Necronia's OTC, he barely has 5.
The difference is, he runs PXG as DX9 and Necronia as OpenGl.
Although I know there is a DX9 client already; he has failed to run it. It returns some weird errors of some missing dlls. Have you got any idea how to help him? I never had something like that, since I get around 600 FPS with openGL.
Another thing is... Can you give an estimative in months of when Summoner will be opened for tests? I am really on hype to test it even beforr Spearman got released.

Cheers :]

PXG have a unique DX9 especially for slow computers and also they client is very optimized, but already tested with dual core + 128mb onboard video card and FPS is something around 30, never reached that much o0
