Wiseman -> RE: The promised list (3/10/2011 0:05:51)
|
All of the things listed are still being worked on, and they do intend to release them in time, but since they have to try to release every week they have less time to finish large features (I believe Cysero explained this in an AQW Design Note). Releasing content isn't that hard, and they can do it weekly, but releasing new features takes a long time to finish, because they have to code it make sure it works, test it and work out the bugs, then release it and hope it wont break the game. :P
The Gamma bike wheels do turn, that was fixed a long time ago (its just hard to notice).
Elites where promised a lot and they have gotten more then enough for their investment, they even had infinite varium for a while which needed to be taken out because of the overwhelming advantage it gave elites over the other players (like unlimited battle boost). For the time they had it though they could get anything without losing anything, they got a free bike which to this day is still rare, and they got a lump sum of varium after the infinite varium was removed. I don't know if founders or elites will be getting anything new in the future, but what I do know is, if they do it wont give them any kind of advantage in battle (it will be something like a house or a bike which has little effect on other players).
Verium sell back was never promised, however its still a good idea and may be added one day, but I don't know the developers intentions on this feature.
The bike teleport idea was scrapped in favor of house teleportation, not to say bikes aren't useful though, its nice to be able to move faster when getting around within an area (walking is just too slow).
Founder step down isn't as simple as it seems, theres a lot of small details that need to be worked out before it can be implemented in order to keep non faction founders from taking over factions without a founders permission. It's a delicate feature that could cause a ton of issues if its abused in the wrong way, also they where going to release it, however they found a few game breaking bugs that where associated with the feature, and postponed it until they find time to fix the issues.
Lastly this discussion is becoming a hacking discussion and since it's against AEF rules to discuss hacking on the forum I'm gonna lock this. I believe I answered all concerns brought up in this thread, but if I'm forgetting anything, please PM me, thanks.
