Heartlander*

 

Zombie buff looks really op idk how I feel about this.

[~ Fiend ~ 611]

And they all said it was coming out with half life 3. ;)

[Gone 869]

Third?  Nope, sixth lol 

 

But yay update! Can't wait to find some bunnies.

[DrakeHaze. 2524]

What about the fishing update?

[ItsMyWorld66 169]

What about fishing?

 

"A changelog will be available in /patchnotes when we update, and a more detailed one will be posted after finalization later this week. Nothing abruptly noticeable will be changed, but there are lots of small things here and there, like /persona time, the mining rebalence, a new mineworld, a full fishing update, many new recipes and more!"

 

Is it implemented now and just no post on it, or are we going to see it at the Finalization?

[L0rdLawyer 2272]

Now time for all the pvp hungry m8yz to set their race to these new races to get pvp buffs. Great! :D

[Stag 3234]

I am excited to see how the new playable races will fit into the server! Very neat! 

 

 

 

Now time for all the pvp hungry m8yz to set their race to these new races to get pvp buffs. Great! :D

 

 

They have to be moderator approved. If we see people abusing it they will be banned. ^_^

[L0rdLawyer 2272]

Question.

Will armour be safe on armour stands? E.g: Can they be locked?

Just my general observation from testing 1.8 on different servers, I dont think they can. D:

[Arkelos 1027]

Now time for all the pvp hungry m8yz to set their race to these new races to get pvp buffs. Great! :D

 

Keep in mind it says "Needs Staff Approval"

[The Great Mongol Khan 1110]

The servers a bit laggy

@Kow

[TavernLich 324]

Wraiths get way more buffs than Liches (Necrolytes) what am I? A second-class citizen... -rants about how bad wraiths are, grr, wraiths, grr-

But seriously, great job! Woot!

EDIT: What do you mean released next week for the Cobstruct Races? Is that quote slightly outdated or is it actually going to be released next week?

[Ricky 321]

Spawned in, got attacked by tons of witches, creepers and zombies...

[Heero 4092]

 

And they all said it was coming out with half life 3. ;)

 

I didn't see the magic plugin in this patch.

[Feykronos 4]

Awesome! All of the updates seem complicated, so great job! Honestly I'm surprised there weren't more bugs than there are with all that coding mumbojumbo.Plus the new playable races seem really neat lore wise, I'll have to look out for them~!
