Jeff Skalski - WAR Producer’s Letter

Hey
Fellow Waaaghers,

Just
wanted to drop a few lines to follow up where our fearless leader, Mr. Hickman,
left off reaffirm that our support and dedication to making WAR the best RvR
experience in the market has not changed.  We’re just a few weeks past the
launch of 1.3.2 and heavily testing 1.3.3 as we speak to get it ready for PTS.

1.3.3
brings with it a focus on continued polish and bug fixes, enhancements to RvR
as well as other features to improve the quality and enjoyment of your
experience. We’ll be sprucing up graphics with improved lighting options and bloom
to make the skies pop to life and create some spectacular sights, in addition
over the course of 1.3.3 you’ll get to enjoy three live events including the
return of the Battlebrew Backpack in Keg End and the much beloved Night of
Murder event in addition to an all new event in the new year…yarrrr. We’re
anything but bored as you can see and we can’t wait to open the gates on PTS to
hear your feedback. Your feedback is vital to ensuring 1.3.3 is a hit so make
sure you share it!

Till then, we are continuing to actively
monitor how the RvR campaign is playing out across the servers and making
adjustments as we develop the Underdog system which we look forward to sharing the
details about with you soon.

In
case you haven’t heard the news we’ve now made WAR more accessible than ever!
We’ve brought RvR to the Mac for the first time ever so you don’t even need Boot
Camp to play (It made me a Mac user!). Additionally your friends and family can play the intense, fast
paced action of Tier 1 forever with
the new Endless Trial and Windows users only need a quick 1GB download to get
into the action while the rest of the game downloads as you play. PQ’s are
full, scenarios are popping and there are plenty of players scouring the RvR
lakes looking for revenge – so why are you still reading?

See
you on the battlefield,

Jeff
Skalski

Mass PTS Playtest! - 11/11/2009

Greetings!

The WAR Dev team will be hosting a mass playtest tomorrow night, 11/11/2009, starting at 8:00 PM EST on the Public Test Server, Warpstone. We will be testing the newly reduced city siege timers and the values associated with advancing the city into stage two.

As has been the case with previous mass playtests, some lucky players will win either an Enslaved Manticore or Imperial Griffon mount! So come on out and join in the fun.

We’ll see you on the PTS!

WAAAGH!

Dev Diary - John Cox (Combating Hackers)

Well the topic of this developer diary is a naughty word—the H word—H
****** - er… hacking.  It’s something we at Mythic don’t often talk
about openly, but we do take very seriously.  It’s a very interesting
subject that I’d love to talk in-depth about; it has many challenges
and curiosities that make for an interesting discussion.  I get a sense
of joy when I know we’ve ruined a hacker’s day. Unfortunately,
“fighting the good fight” is very cloak-and-daggers stuff, going back
and forth, with the hackers and cheaters—so, to talk about it in great
detail also gives information to the very people we’re attempting to
thwart.  Here’s my best shot at showing you a glimpse behind the
curtain about how we handle hacking and cheaters without giving away
too many of our secrets!

We are pleased to announce the introduction of the WAR Endless Free Trial. The Endless Trial will replace the current 10-Day Trial.
