Sorry, we've been completely revamping the layout of the environment this weekend; I personally think it's going to pay off well from a player perspective.
Also having other features added, so players can track their own deaths/mobkills etc (annnd there will be a public ranking for this!)

It's consolidating a lot together (a lot less provinces to navigate (Total will be 3 - including 1 which is a small "Wall" province) so the whole area will world will feel more 'bustling'. Should be some new "Newbie" caves too (as the original starting area is being scrapped so we will use the mobs for a new cave :) )

We're also removing / consolidating some skills over this week, too.

I will fire up a discord soon (we have one, we just need to make any last minute mods on it)
I will speak to storm about getting additional mods on the discord channel as its not a bad idea, appreciate the offer for entering the gates of hell!

Gd gd.

Not good, monster counter > If I don't get most fox kills my rep is gonna slide!

Pretty sure you know about certain buff consolidations but single target hide triggers me, no point imo would remove.....as compensation would like Camoflauge or Tao Kick with unique debuff xD

Hopefully this countdown is the live date lol!

"Hopefully"

You, me and everyone have booked at least a week off work in accordance with the countdown.

LB you have no choice!

tbh its better to have testing beta 1st to sort the bugs out for the longevity of server rather than rushing to live so ppl exploiting and abusing hell out of it all day long to make server rewind etc, but that would require some sort of motivation for ppl to actually test it out..kinda like how Jamie did for zircon testing, u can get all free gs shop free during testing but no gold , skill training ratex10 etc, so u have at least to hunt some mobs/boss etc for the potions. The only down side is one might lost interest at live launch, and well that might just be me lul, that was only mir3 that i tried/played:):)anyways, i'd love to play a server that last longer than those seasonal servers...

Plan to keep the server going as I did with TPR.

No intentions for any other mir2 server after this one, either :)

Yeah a beta will be coming first and i really like the idea of a restricted beta so people test problems rather than use it to find advantages

So will the live date be given after a week or so after beta or any time framed planned? 2 month from now or?

Once we have finished what we are doing in terms of the layout revamp, we will have a good indication for beta.

When Beta is over, we can then announce a live date (as if beta has a ton of issues, it will extend the TTL / if there are few issues it will reduce it)

I feel like everyone is looking for the 'perfect server' that is going to last longer than 3 months.. I think the reality is, that will never happen again. The way people play mir now has completely changed, we have all over played the game so much that we complete content much faster than anyone can keep up.

Not only that, alot of people spend so much of their own money on servers these days, everyone feels like they need to break even when the server starts to lose numbers, which creates mass people quitting at the same time and ultimately kills the server.

I've come to learn to just take each new server as it comes.. I go in with the mind set it will only last a few months, but im going to enjoy it whilst the numbers are still there.

Looking forward to this one, see you all on the server :)

Cant see any links to download this or a discord server. @LightBringer can you share it?
P.s. make sure you whack slow mode and read only channels. Ruins servers giving people so much freedom to cry all ******* day long on discord

So let me get this right. There is no advert on here, no discord and you are launching this Friday? Bit unprepared don't you think? I'm just thinking of how you are not enticing the community enough - as we all know, its a very niche segment

Where have you read it launches on Friday? I can confirm it's 100% not launching Friday tho, we will be sending emails out / advertising on here when we have dates set in stone for beta, then will be doing the same again for live.
