Emergency Reboot + Announcement.

[Xx69xX]

Firstly id like to start by apologizing for the issue with bosses. This has now been resolved.

Secondly we would like to welcome @thedeath to the team. We have been working very hard since day one, but are getting to a point where we are all very busy and we needed some help. TheDeath has stepped in and we are grateful to have him as part of the team.

What have we done in this reboot:

• Bosses can no longer be exploited with the slow bug.
• Evil Mir has been re-coded to ensure it does not die due to AOE attacks on the walls. This is to ensure that the experience of this end game boss is not a quick and easy one.
• Evil Mir has had a stat increase.
• Reworked drops for several bosses, top end and old school euro bosses.
• 44 bracelets have had an extra base stat added to each item.
• 44+45 items have had a heavy increase in the drops
• Lords have had a strong increase in drops as with OKS+MirKing to ensure the incentive to fight for these is there.
• When the lord spawns, the map the lord is on will become a "fight zone" for the entirety of the fight.
• Luck system has been re-evaluated. This is still strong, but will now make getting luck 7/8 worth your time.
• We have put in a fix for the client crashes due to text box. This is something we could not replicate once in game, so please feedback if you get this again.
• A new cave has been added in Senjin, this cave is targeted for melee classes as the mobs have a high health pool and the cave is less dense with mobs, The boss for this map has not been introduced yet, as we did not want to put this ingame yet, but the need for melee classes is there so we have added the cave.
• A new punishment system has been put into game for if/when we find any players abusing anything we have a strong system that will force players to think again about these decisions.

Obviously there is lots more we wanted to change, however as we have said this is an emergency reboot. With this though, we may delay our expected reboot on Sunday. We will let you know.

We have put our new system in place for those who have been exploiting the slow bug for the last week.

I know this reboot is not ideal and has not got everything you wanted in here, but the players wanted/needed a reboot for the bug that has come to light, therefore we have not got around to completing everything we wanted.

We will have many more fixes coming before christmas event such as:

TrickShot
Wizz Shield off screen
Archer Clone bugging on floor
Hair Cuts reverting on female chars
Slashing burst changes to code and level of usage
Able to pick items up overweight
Guild alliance
New exp system
Guild war all option
Slow on players
Poison Tag (gaining drop from a poison)
FirePhoenix not being useful enough as it does not hit targets that are moving.
Vengeance spell reduced slow chances.
Adding a new feature for Firesword.
Sabuk Wall - Rewards/notice/updated map
The new npcs will be alive on next reboot.
A new daily calendar reward system, this will be introduced for the christmas event, and then re-evaluated and will be on a daily reward system for all players.

Christmas Event:

The Christmas event will be in game on Friday 21st December and will last until 1st January.

Done.

Finished. Ain't commented on this forum in literally years but after reading what I have of the past few posts about how easy exploitation was and your utter ineptitude (or even want) to fix/solve the problem straight away has completely written off any chance of me enjoying this anymore.

Don't get me wrong I was on my last legs about playing but I'm completely done now. You've essentially given people time to get streets ahead of everybody and then once the problem has become entirely public you've fixed it. I'm not expecting a reply, nor will I be giving another should I get one. Your server is dead now and it's down to your utter incompetence.

Cheers, enjoyed it while it lasted.

If you have a job you understand the values of finding a bug on Thursday and fixing it on Friday evening.

listening to people on discord tell you whats broken verses what was actually broken and how it was broken is only emphasizing your foolishness not mine, this is why when i read forums, discord most comments are taken with a pinch of salt, because one players massive issue is another players "oops i sold an item to the shop, what a fool i am". Despite what you think you know about this bug, i would venture a guess its actually very little.

how is this fair for players who haven't got luck6/7 yet or/and the new comers?

you should have changed the power of luck NOT make it harder to get luck on weapon, this is totally wrong

Seems as though you need a visit to the library, explore the dictionary section to find the word incompetence and review the understanding and context you have written it in, because from where i sit, finding out how big a problem this was, and resolving it within 24 hours seems pretty competent to me considering all 3 of us (at the time) work full time jobs,

you were told about the slow bug more than a week ago, by multiple parties.

This is what we did, apologies if this did not come across correctly, the chance of getting luck has NOT changed, the values of the damage has changed.

Yes that it was reducing the bosses attack speed, not that it was stopping bosses all together, this is a different case, i watched OrcWarlord Walk a little slower a week ago, yesterday i was told whats really happening. I can only go on what im told, i dont play the game, hence why we punished those who did not fully inform us, or abused the bug.

I’ll reply once more just to say it genuinely wasn’t a dig at you guys (reading back it does come across that way). I was genuinely saying cheers for giving me something to fill my free time for the time I did spend playing, it’s a good escape from bollocking on in the real world.

Wasn’t aiming to offend, genuinely wasn’t my intention.

I also have a full time job, and the way you’ve worded your reply you seem to assume otherwise. I wasn’t a no loser, I was a guy that played a couple of hours ever other night... if that. Just to clarify.

There seems to be far too many bugs and problems that other people are benefitting from that’s really off putting. Every other week there’s an issue that makes you question whether it’s even worth trying.

Again, thanks for the few weeks of good gameplay. But I’m done for now, until the next one catches my eye.

Cheers to the lads the made and maintained the server!

My response was not aiming that you didint have a job, my response was mirroring yours, making assumptions, i say the same thing every time in discord, i am a mirror, i will respond appropriately to how you speak to us. I think misinformation is a huge problem with gaming community, and if you choose to listen to the loud people and not actually explore whats really going on, your experience will always be negative.

You would be surprised how many really great messages we get daily from players, however its the loud negative people who influx the general chat and this only encourages people to feel negatively as they make assumptions and assume things are as bad as these people say. This is something only individuals can choose to join in with, or make their own minds up.

I get your point, but this is actually more useful for the casuals, as those who work, will be at work until next Thursday, Friday. Remember it’s not always about the start date only, it’s also about the end date. This is for everyone

This post can be summed up as;

We built something
We didn't test it
We released it
The players used it
We banned people who played and didn't tell us that we ****ed up.
We also banned people that told us... but didn't tell us the full story.

I understand you don't play, but test your ****.

Didnt know other Mir servers have 0 bugs and are completely perfect, let me know which one you play I’ll tag along!:lol

Nowhere did I say that other servers don't have these issues. For one with such a team, I would've hoped that they would have a test server to test changes / investigate even the slightest of concerns from players.

If the bug truly was raised a week ago... You can't blame players for capitalising on it... if it was truly a bug, the team should've investigated at even the slightest hint of something being awry.

Yes I finish work like most people on the 21st, won't get on 24th 25th 26th like prob most with families and then back in work on the 27th prob leaving me 22nd,23rd,29th and 30th, I'm not speaking for every casual but I'm guessing they will be doing near enough the same.
