Virtue System changes, phase 1. ( 35 Replies (Page: 1 2) )
Zippy on Sat, July 12th, 2008 @ 10:09pm

Today we are starting to get ready for the implementation of the new Virtue (Chaos/Order) system.

In the new system, there are some important new rules about membership in Chaos/Order guilds:

• Murderers are not allowed in Chaos/Order guilds.
• Chaos/Order membership is determined per IP-address

Some time after July 22nd we will be introducing the code on to the live server that enforces these changes. In order to prepare for this change, effective sometime this weekend, all murderers (those with more than 5 kills) will be set to 4 kills. If you want to use your character for Chaos/Order, do not murder any more innocents. This is a one-time reprieve and it will not happen again before the system is implemented.

This week you should begin shuffling your characters' guilds and virtues so that none of your characters are in opposing virtues. When the server begins enforcing the per-IP rules for virtues, any characters in violation (same IP and different virtues or murderers in virtue guilds) will be automatically corrected. Auto-correction means your character will be immediately removed from their guild or, if they are the guildmaster, the guild will be converted to a normal guild (and you will be unable to switch the guild back).

More news on the next phases of implementation, including open testing on a Test Center server, will be announced in a few weeks.

7/4/08 to 7/6/08 - Trinsic unguarded! ( 27 Replies (Page: 1 2) )
Salamando on Sat, June 28th, 2008 @ 3:58pm

During the 4th of July holiday weekend, we'll be dropping guards from Trinsic to hopefully get a central point for pvp for the weekend. Don't read to deep into this, this is just a fun event we'll be doing for the weekend. We encourage Order guilds, Chaos guilds, PK guilds, anti-PK guilds, thieves, and noto PKs alike to come out and have some fun while the guards are out enjoying picnics and sunning themselves at the beach.

Wrong 3 Duel Pits have been reopened ( 29 Replies (Page: 1 2) )
MasterM on Sat, June 28th, 2008 @ 1:14pm

I hope everyone will enjoy these duel pits again. It gives everyone in the community a common place to duel.




How it works:

1. First you type "I wish to duel" which brings up a menu. You will need to select your opponent or partner(if its a 2v2 etc..)
2. To set rules go under rules then select what you want or don't want in your duel. Important: Standard 7x allows magic armor, weapons and poisoned weapons. You must go to custom after that to remove these or remove any other skill/weapon/armor/potion from your duel
3. Your records will be kept on a ladder(it's possible that this may be reset for the reopening of the duel pits)

Your items will be used up in this event. However, if you die you won't lose your items on you. Instead you'll be teleported to a tile where you can't be attacked on, nor attack anyone on. Once you leave this tile you can't go back onto it.

Also there is a banker inside the duel pits so you'll be able to reequip and a teleporter to the outside of Wrong.

To find out your ranking type "Showladder" ingame

We hope you enjoy,

Divinity Staff

We are currently experiencing a network issue with our upstream provider (Time Warner Telecom). This issue is a regional issue and is not limited to just our servers. We have a ticket open with them and will update you as soon as we have any information. This issue started at approximately 10:26 AM EST.

Thanks,

Salamando on Mon, June 16th, 2008 @ 9:56am

Gonna do some more testing of conflict at 9pm EST.

Pick if you're going to come as a blue or red, get your friends in a group and sit around and wait for the broadcast message. Once it starts up, head out, kill each other, oh and there's a monster too that'll drop some gold. Most importantly, kill each other.

Salamando on Fri, June 13th, 2008 @ 8:52pm

Hey guys,
We have alot of the details ironed out for the new Order/Chaos system that we've talked about for awhile now. We want to do an HoC for the system so we can get input and feedback from you guys before the code is finalized. After we make changes based on what we get out of the HoC, we'll be in the final phase of coding and putting up the test center shortly thereafter (don't ask when, we don't know).

Please join us on IRC for a House of Commons style chat with staff where we will give a detailed overview of the system we have in the works, and then we'll answer your questions regarding the system - nothing kept secret!
