We have support for additional teams, but we feel this is the best initial setup that supports the content and has people able to find opponents from a fairly low level.

The soft level difference means, while your ability to attack someone above the minimum level is unrestricted, if you are more than 20% of their level higher than them, they suffer no penalty and you gain no reward.

The percentages are easily adjustable and we will be enabling coin banking for PvP servers.

The Server Issues - Beta FAQ  
Friday, January 12, 2007 9:51 PM - submitted by Dash Cody    (0 Comments)

      Can you please address the server stability issues?

  • Coders are working on stability as a high priority. The servers are all moving to new top of the line hardware, this process has already started and will continue throughout beta 5.
    -Bill Fisher, Senior Game Designer

    The servers and client are being put under stress they have yet to experience, we're getting closer and closer to a launch environment, but as many of you here have stated, we need things to go wrong in order to make them right.

    We understand it can be frustrating, we understand performance is not optimal, but these are things that have to happen in order to make launch and beyond that much smoother and enjoyable.

    Thank you everyone for your patience and cooperation during these times, and as we hammer out more bugs and continue to turn those knobs and tighten up optimization the road might be a bit bumpy, but that’s what we're all here for right? So we can all enjoy the game after beta.

    So… thank you for crashing our servers! :)

Open Beta begins - 4 January  
Thursday, January 04, 2007 5:44 PM - submitted by Dash Cody    (0 Comments)

Nick Parkinson, Sigil's community manager, has confirmed that technically speaking, Beta 5, aka "Open Beta", will be starting this afternoon. However, their plan is to stagger the admittance to this new stage of beta. So, if you are a participant in open beta via the Fileplanet offer, the pre-order offer, or some other means and you still cannot get in today, try tomorrow.

We also now have confirmation that the NDA for beta participants is now officially lifted.

Congratulations to Sigil Games for this very exciting milestone!
