Release History 2017 (Rev. 18)

Patch Notes 27.7.X10

January 12

Happy New Year!

After a short break for the holidays, we came back to a fun bunch of bots trying to crash our servers. We modified a few things and they should no longer be able to do any harm.

Also behind the scenes, we’ve been working on new features and the longer term projects we discussed in our last producer letter. It’s sometimes slow going (trying to get it right), but we’re committed to continue to provide at least small updates as we go to make sure the game stays fresh.

Today we have a small release with a few bug fixes, skins and pet stones.

Fixes

• Fixed pet sprite sizes in the UI
• Fixed stacking pet tool tip in the pet yard

New

• Inuit Skin (made by Beige) http://i.imgur.com/qeSS3rM.png
• Snowcloaked Rogue (made by Poshun) http://i.imgur.com/5os1ejj.png
• Added several pet stones for existing pets, to be released as we go along. Stay tuned!

Changed

• Removed candy cane items

Removed

• After being constantly exterminated by adventures, the Leprechaun community have decided to move out of Realm of the Mad God. The Leprechaun Chase Event is over.

• Oryx Chicken will no longer spawn.

Cosmetics

• Made fixes to the following Skins / Dye Masks: Ascended Sorcerer, BB Wolf, Dark Elf Huntress, Demon Spawn, Hunchback, Jack the Ripper, Lil’ Red, Mischievous Imp, Nexus no Miko, Poltergeist, Slime Skins, Stanley the Spring Bunny, Vampiress, Zombie Nurse.

Servers

Servers daily restart time have been changed depending on their cluster:

• USW Cluster: 3am PST (UTC -7) / 10am UTC
• USE Cluster: 3am EST (UTC -4) / 7am UTC
• EU Cluster: 3am UTC
• Asia Cluster: 3am PHT (UTC +8) / 7pm UTC

Shops & Items

• Keys can no longer be purchased in the Nexus Shop by players under 10 Stars.
• Keys can no longer be used by players under 10 Stars.
• Keys’ price have been permanently lowered (Note: Will need a few minutes to apply to all servers)
• Equipment can no longer be purchased in the Nexus Shop by players under 2 Stars.

Oy! What does that mean? To put it simply, the restrictions have been implemented to combat fraudsters, who create new accounts and buy / use large amounts of keys before charging back.

At the same time, we believe that a lot of items are currently too expensive. One of our goal is to make players feel good about spending a few bucks in the Nexus, without feeling forced to gamble with Mystery Boxes or having to spend more to afford expensive packages. We have permanently lowered the price of most keys, and are looking into repricing other items in future patches

That’s it for now! If you have questions, remarks or suggestions, fire away!

Hey everyone!

This month, we decided to invest time on necessary backend changes to improve the game’s stability and performance.

Patch X.15.0.0 - The Balance of Magic

June 20

Hey people!

Is… is that? Yes, we’re finally getting rid of 27.7 and going full X mode! Let’s celebrate that with the gorgeous Summer Nexus from Beige, and a refreshing summer rain of balance changes!

As for the Art Contest, we’re still going through all your submissions. Just like you guys, we’re super stoked about it - more than 200 participants took the challenge! Hopefully we will be able to reach out to the winners in the coming week.

Important Announcement: We will soon be lowering the price of several older Skins and Pet Stones for all of you out there. That means we will also have to lower the FP of those skins in particular to avoid having issues where Skins start being more interesting than Pet Food in the long run. If you have any duplicate skin lying around that you are not using, please make sure to feed them soon to avoid losing FP!

Month of the Mad God Announcement: No, we didn’t forget MotMG - it will take place in August this year! Why the delay though? Well, we’re preparing a lot of new stuff for MotMG - a lot of exciting stuff I might add! However, it’s going to take us some more time, and we don’t want to release a half-baked MotMG which would make everyone sad.

Note: If you can’t connect to the game, try using the website to see if the issue comes from the Client you’re using!

New!

• The Summer Nexuses are now live! With creativity and hard work, Beige brings us the latest Nexus Technology™ with a time-based Nexus, which goes through a complete Day/Night cycle every 8 hours!
• Mini Sphinx Pet Stone now drops from the Grand Sphinx
• Mini Crystal Steed Pet Stone now drops from the Crystal Prisoner
• Mystery Items are out! Using one will drop an random related item (Mystery Skins will drop Skins for instance). The quality of the item depends on the quality of the Unlocker (Gold / Silver / Bronze).

Fixes

• Using abilities while stunned functions properly and no longer results in disconnects (Shields, Quivers and Shuriken)
• Fixed ocean vent and wounded Thessal not appearing when they should (for real this time)
• Snake Pit Guard is no longer invisible on the mini map and displays its HP bar correctly
• Reduced another repetitive line from the Avatar
• Cleaned up Oryx Taunt strings (double spaces, etc.)

Polish

• Opening secret room now makes a sound like it was intended!
• Brought back backgrounds - Sprite Worlds have stars again! (only when Hardware Acceleration is off)
• Scepter of Geb renamed to Wand of Geb to avoid confusion
• Equipment Tool Tips
  
  • Abilities now display their cooldown
  • Set pieces now display the full set bonuses (lightly grayed if not active)

  • Improved comparisons for MP Costs

Balancing

  • Every 10 points will add an additional target (+3 for 80 WIS for example)

Hey there people,
We teased it, and you better beelieve it… The Nest is now live! Will you bee able to clear it, or will you bee one of the unfortunate to leave a tombstone in it?

Did someone say… Month of the Mad God?

Reminder

• We will soon be lowering the price of several older Skins and Pet Stones for all of you out there. That means we will also have to lower the FP of those skins in particular to avoid having issues where Skins start being more interesting than Pet Food in the long run. If you have any duplicate skin lying around that you are not using, please make sure to feed them soon to avoid losing FP!

More to come… Soon…
