Ebil Dread

The Chairman has been on Delta V for nearly a week and already he grows impatient with his hosts. His diabolical offerings have kept the citizens from expelling him thus far, but Baelius is still a no-show. Shuttles are now approaching with a hoards of EbilCorp goons, and the Chairman's promises of wealth and power have swayed some locals to his cause.

Events are escalating quickly as local authorities seem unable to make a move against the EbilCorp incursion. Will Delta V be under new management permanently? What are the Chairman's true intentions? Who taught the Bio Hazard how to tie a tie? All will be revealed soon!


Epic Stylin'

'Tis the season to unveil new styles -- 18 to be precise (3 for each base class and gender). These styles will have an EbilCorp flavor to them. Visit any style change bot around Delta V to check out these sinister new styles.

Rabblefroth has been hard at work expanding the functionality of our style purchasing system. After this release, unlocking a single style will unlock all similar styles across all classes (i.e. wolf style, bio hazard, dragon slayer). We will apply this retroactively to those who have already purchased styles, so you should notice way more styles unlocked when you change classes!

To further satisfy your hunger for style, we will be offering a new bonus package that includes a jumbo pack of styles! This promotion will includes new EbilCorp styles. This does not mean that we will be removing any current promotions, just that we will be adding a new one.

If you play as a Male Mage or Hunter, you may have noticed that you have fewer basic styles than Mercenaries. Maybe you haven't. In any case, we're correcting that oversight by adding 1 new default style to Mages and 2 new default styles for Hunters. Huzzah!


Contest Reminder!

Existing styles not your...uh...style? Remember, we're hosting a hairstyle design contest in the forums RIGHT NOW! Submit your creations for a chance to win ALL THE STYLES available in game at the time of contest's end as well as seeing your own design used in game! You have until the 26 of October, so sharpen those pencils and do your best!


Secure Decor

In case you missed it last week, the seasonal Harvest Festival home items are now available for purchase. You will also have the opportunity to acquire the beautiful winning posters created for our account safety awareness art contest! Hang them proudly in your homes to show that you know how to keep your account secure, and encourage others to do the same!


Suggestion Shop

The weapons are not ready for this week, but we are currently culling the forums for the best item suggestions for vectorization. I would like to remind all of those participating that plagarism will not be tolerated. Furthermore, a comment from a mod or dev like "nice sword" should not be taken as a guarantee that the suggestion will be used. Art posted on Twitter and FB will not be considered unless it is posted in the forums as well.

Also, be sure to follow our assistant artist, Disturbed's, Twitter for his progress as he vectorizes the best suggestions!

Suggestion shops are always a breath of fresh air into the game's expansive inventory and I wish we could do them more frequently. That said, I have a feeling this shop will be the best one yet! Thank you and good luck!

What about those who unlocked two or more similar styles already? Will they get a refund? (Really doubt, but thought i'd ask anyway)




Rayman -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/3/2012 20:33:29)

^
If You Have The Wolf Head Unlocked, Oviusly you will have it unlocked on the another class.
Then how do you think you will unlock the head if you cant buy it twice Lol.???
but the same on mutiple classes, I dont think they get refund.




Stabilis -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/3/2012 20:34:12)

@Apocalypse,

Scenario A:

Buy 1 hairstyle- staff gives the other 2 free

Buy 3 hairstyles (identical)- nothing

Scenario B:

Buy 1 hairstyle- staff gives the other 2 free

Buy 3 hairstyles (identical)- staff refunds 2 hairstyle amounts in credits/varium

I think it will be scenario B.




Unknown Menace -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 2:48:33)

It takes a weak minded to believe everything a man with power and cash has to promise. Like those hazzards.
This also applies to the elections.




Renegade Reaper -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 3:40:31)

what will happen if someone (not me) already bought the wolf style in multiple classes? will they get a refund
because the style will be mutating after the update?




zion -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 5:16:31)

Why is everyone always asking for a refund?
The game is still in a testing phase... things change.
If someone bought all the styles, they got use of all the styles and thats what they paid for. What difference does it make that now its cheaper? That happens to everything in this game... see class change, gold card, enhancements...etc.

Thylek Shran -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 6:13:49)

Some headstyles that I found at Disturbedīs twitter that MAYBE will get released:

Image 2

Image 3
(Are those the missing styles for mage and hunter ? [8D])




Rayman -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 11:16:04)

I Hope They Add Something Else, Like Balance.

Uhhh? Look again, no-one here was asking for a refund. We all asked out of curiosity (Renegade wouldn't mind considering he already stated it wasn't him who was in need of a refund, and I personally left a note in the end that I was simply asking. Both of us hoped to avoid the flaming by making it clear that all we wanted was an answer, not a refund), but you just decided against that anyway.

@Thylek: I like the new styles, the hoods remind me of Anakin.




Rayman -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 20:56:11)

I really Gonna Unlock that hairstyle, Not saying which.




zion -> RE: Design Notes - October 3 - Ebil Dread (10/4/2012 21:37:56)

@Nub - you clearly were asking in general and said you weren't expecting it, wasn't referring to u... sorry.
On topic: Hopefully there will be some nice missions with good rewards...




Chosen 0ne -> RE: =ED= October 3, 2012 Design Notes - Ebil Dread (10/5/2012 1:25:17)

Something very EBIL is coming to ed. It involves everyones factions. Youll know it when you see it.......

Members of ED of been planning it since 2010 at monthly meetings at my house. Youll know it when it happens haha. Hopefully it will influence a new storyline.

If you are a faction leader; or a mod that demands to know whats going on; p.m. me. To all faction founders: this cant be done without your help so please.p.m. me.

DestruRaGe -> RE: =ED= October 3, 2012 Design Notes - Ebil Dread (10/5/2012 11:05:32)

^Wheres new skills for "evolved" classes? ;D




Nightwraith -> RE: =ED= October 3, 2012 Design Notes - Ebil Dread (10/5/2012 11:45:55)

I'm happy to confirm that if you purchased multiple hairstyles that are part of a group, you will be refunded for the additional purchases when the release goes live. This means that if you class changed and bought all three wolf heads for Hunters, Mages, and Mercs, you'll be refunded for two of those purchases.
