@Mega
The problem is whether or not is was by their decision or Rev's decision himself. If it was by Rev's decision then it should be respected, but I cannot deter why a decision as that was made because it only puts more work on the table now for Nulgath because he is now swamped with work to do anything considered OS related.

I love Rev's artwork and Abberant the Exile who I took the time to level is a testament to that.

*Edit
Now judging from Nightwraith's tweets I can see that he has been requesting help for some time which isn't a problem, but couldn't they have Rev do at least a bit of ED and a bit of OS? It would help both Nightwraith and Nulgath quite a bit on terms of artistic work.

As I said before what happens after Omni? Will Nulgath do the art and animation by himself knowing fully well that he does work for AQW time and again along with AQ3D and OS or will they get some help to assist in at least the character design area? It doesn't seem right to assign someone to cater another game and as I stated before Nightwraith seemed to need the help which again is no big deal, but once Omni is done then who will help Nulgath?



DarkLore -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 11:01:51)

WOW! When I read about Rev leaving to go draw for ED my heart sank. No offence, but I despise ED. The system is too broken and unfair for non-paying players. Plus the rewards from battle are so terrible that being able to buy anything is overly tedious and repetitive! I wolud have preferred Rev to stay with OS! I knew I was right to compare OS as being worse than HS currently. I must have jinxed OS! You may now proceed to kick me! Line starts over there. LOL! :(



Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 11:07:59)

Here's the funny thing too... they don't know who'll work with Nulgath?!

If you are prepared to move someone to a different department then make sure there is a replacement? Omni is close to being finished and most likely it'll be soon, but not having any type of backup knowing fully well that Nulgath and the team are going to focus back to OS just baffles me.

I like ED I really do, but it is a developed game! It has weekly releases and a system to keep it going. Here's another thing too. Nulgath stated that he will start doing player suggestions time to time and to my understanding a lot of the GQ characters have been drawn up in Flash already by Rev so it lightens Nulgath's load a bit, but...

Ugh... Whatever I won't press this issue any longer. Nulgath needs another artist or two and that's it because Nulgath is human even though his in-game character is an Archfiend.



Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 11:11:36)

@Mondez
If Rev made the decision to help Nightwraith, then I will respect too. But I had the thoughts as what you stated about Rev helping bit on OS and ED. That will still be fair.

If Nightwraith request help, then so will Nulgath. Nulgath won't be able to handle all the animations and art all by himself, he really need help in drawing lots of new characters since none know how to do animation. Volunteer would be the best solution. Beck and Blackshock shall be one of those to help out!

@Darklore
This is serious! ED is just a terrible game like what you said and no offense to ED though but its a fact. Poor balance issues and gameplay. When I try ED for a few minutes, I got sick and instantly quit because of the balance issue! OS need help! We don't want to see OS end up like HS although HS had improved a lot recently. OS need to rise as well!

Edit: I don't want to go on with this issue over here anymore. All I hope is Nulgath can purely focus on OS without helping other AE games anymore after the Omni project is release. Also to recruit new artists to help Nulgath out in designing new characters.

I shall go to bed now. I will see you guys tomorrow. Night!

I find it funny how people are bashing ED. I am not a fan of it by any means, but saying it is "bad" is just outright ignorant. Also, while I am not a fan of it, I agree that revontheus should move to ED, they have about 6-7 times as many players as us anyway.

Is this the 5th or 6th week we go without any updates?

why is it downright ignorant? some people have expressed their distaste for ED AFTER having given the game a go...



the warden -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 14:07:42)

necro rouge: I think 5th maybe??
there should be a release soon with TLAPD coming..



Vagaran -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 14:18:15)

Looking forward to the pirates :p

And hopefully AP evolution!



bei4 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 14:54:05)

hoping for release if theres no release it is 6 weeks without any new content



Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:14:14)

I also hope for a release, but at the same time doubt it because Nulgath is busy with project Omni along with Warlic and Rolith.

@necro
Two only expressed their opinion of distaste of ED hence they are not bashing it. If it's a bad game for them then it's a bad game to them and that's their opinion.



ND Mallet -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:21:18)

Let's clear some things up here since I see a lot of confusion going on.

1. AQ3D is being delayed for Omni so Nulgath is working on Omni most, if not all, of the time.
2. Nulgath isn't working on AQW, he occasionally makes new stuff for his followers on the other side of the portal. Very occasionally. The last I heard of him making stuff was for his Artist shop and the Rider armor that isn't released yet and is planned to be in OS as well.
3. ED also has a small team. They have 2 coders and 2 artists. 4 artists counting Rev and Disturbed.
4. The tweet said they were bringing him on full-time to help with suggestion items, which haven't been put in-game for quite some time now. Nightwraith and Charfade are great artists, but they have more important things to work on right now such as art for new features. They need some help so they can get some player made items in instead of just making new feature art and staff-made items
5. A lack of one artist isn't going to kill OS. If anything, we'll get less characters per release, something that a handful of forumites have been asking for. I've seen countless posts saying to cut back on characters released.

HS has been severely lacking in staff for well over a year and they're still kicking. If you want OS to live AND thrive like AQW then you need to show support for the game throughout the toughest of times. No one wants to invest in something even the consumers have no faith in.



Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:24:19)

@ND
Meh... I've been concerned for Nulgath since now he's by himself and he works on 4 games and 1 outside project which is a lot of work, but your post clears it up so I pretty much retract majority of my points.

@below Mirai
Plus Battle Gems was due for release a couple weeks back so it might take as long as you said for the combo system to be released.



Mirai Hoshino -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:27:36)

Personally, I'm a little more concerned about getting Rolith and Warlic back in the game than Nulgath and Revontheus. We need to get some missing features added to the game some day. Things like:
- Combo Bonuses
- Elemental advantages
- Alignments

I know combo bonuses are due out "soon", but in game terms, that could end up being some time next year...



ND Mallet -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:32:10)

@mon They never once specified a release date for Battle Gems that I am aware of. AE seldom ever specifies deadlines unless it's for something they have complete control over, such as contests they host, but not releases of anything

Edit- @below That was a secret deadline they set for themselves rather than post for the world to see.



Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 16:36:51)

So naturally, *looks at calendar* we missed our deadline weeks ago.

I more or less took the info from their DN on Artix.com, but it is a big project so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and just let it slide because 256 levels is a pretty high hurdle as a start towards mobile gaming.

I'll continue to support OS, but it'll be a very long time before everything for the team gets back on track with this. I hope HS and OS can get their team on track and start development on their games because both have potential to rival popular Facebook games even though they are completely different types.



daichi -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 17:23:53)

Well, release or not, at least we're all still alive.[:D]

but the thirteenth isn't over yet...[:o]

gonna go run around as a scary character in solace.[:D]



clintonian -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 17:54:48)

At least tell us if there is gonna be a release or not instead of making us wonder each week



Mondez -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 18:35:20)

Looks like OS isn't going to get a release today... I want to be patient, but this is really missing out a big event and even HS along with MQ got their releases. I'm kinda mixed with disappointment and some anger still left over from the early LoL games I played today.

I have to bear in mind what the team is going through... [:(]

*sigh* I'm hoping that OS's birthday will get a release, but if not... *sigh* more waiting.



necro rouge -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 18:45:30)

Another release free week. This is so great.

off topic, what other games do you guys play?



Skurge -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 18:52:11)

Ah, pity. No release? =<

On another more exciting note, I'll be getting a Black Dragon soon. Doubt I'll ever use it, but at least I can show off my support for the game. *grin grin*



inshal1000 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 18:55:14)

What time does a release usually come out?
I wanna know if there's even a chance for their to be a release.
If we don't get a release... I honestly don't know what I'll do.



necro rouge -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 19:30:00)

Lately, they've kept a pretty strict schedule with every release coming out never o'clock.



Mirai Hoshino -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 20:49:09)

@clintonian, inshal1000:

Nulgath said: "With it set to release soon, all hands have been put onto the Omni project to make sure all goes well. This means other releases will have to be delayed till then." So if you've been holding your breath waiting for an Oversoul release, stop that, it's hazardous to your health.

When they finish work with Battle Gems, then maybe we'll get a release. They're several weeks behind in their Battle Gems work, but I think they're expecting to finish it up any month now.



Cyberbeast10 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 21:05:20)

I, for one, believe we should take this hiatus to discuss very important matters and begin discussing the possibility for balanced tourneys (As in...NO FIRE DOMINANCE!)



Cyber doom5 -> RE: =OS= Beta Release Thread 131 - READ THE FIRST POST (9/13/2013 21:53:54)

D like at least a design notes post about what they have accomplished in oversoul in the ver one month since a release
