Ashari everyone! here's everyone's favourite reporter daikataro! reporting to you from the tibia of the future! that's right, CIP was kind enough to let me thru a space-time portal just to bring you some of the stuff in-advance, isn't that great? they told me to measure myself but what the hell, let's spill the beans!
First of all, the game's name is not tibia anymore, after so many changes, CIP decided tibia was just a sooooooo old concept, so they changed the name to "world of tibia", is it an awesome name or what?, of course, tibia as a name was left free, and oh tee fans took over it, and they made their own game that looks alike the really old tibia, those poor fools, it doesn't matter that they now have 70k players online, it's just a matter of time before everyone realizes world of tibia is way better than "old tibia"
Oh yeah, since we're talking about numbers, drastical changes mean drastical moves, after a few updates a lot of players abandoned us (cowards), so they decided to just merge everyone into a BIG server named noobia, we have 1,500 players online! also there was a BIG uproar when we were all merged, since houses owned was a big issue, but CIP knew how to solve it, they simply left us all homeless and left houses go into auction, that created quite a bit of unease, and a lot of killing was on, so CIP decided to totally remove PvP while everyone got a home again, if you attacked an unmarked player you instantly died, ain't that great?
Well, that was tought to be a measure only to be taken as house adjustments were made, but then they decided it was so cool they would keep it, i think there was a thread against it, but meh, it only had like 700 signatures or so, meaningless, instead, they implemented a proposal with the magnificent amount of 10 agreed (6 of those were from the same account but who really cares?) and 350 against, the premium balance! to make it a fair game, they summed the total amount of premmy time owned by all inhabitants of noobia, the re-distributed those days equally among the population, to keep it short they adjusted everyone's premium time to 43 days, some had 180, some had 360 but who cares about those greedy guys asking for their premmy back, it must be fair for everyone right? besides, those guys with no premmy could finally try premmy and then buy some, of course there were crowded spawns all over premium areas and suddenly all quest areas had a line to get in, but with PvP finally under control i think it was wise from CIP, they both made the gameplay more fair for everyone and it was also a nice marketing strategy to try and lure more people to try and play world of tibia
Oh, and remember bots? that's also dealt with! they realized they couldn't fight them so instead they made them legal, but they knew they were losing money to bot companies, so they just made their own bot, now world of tibia is really easy, people just gets up, turns on their bot and lets it hunt for them while they do other stuff, we have some lag and kicks due to low budget to keep noobia online, but since the bot does everything for them, it's just a matter of "who can be online more time", so no one is pissed off about lag and kicks anymore!!!
I would write more, but this old-style forums only allow a limited amount of text per each run and i'm too lazy to post a reply, more tomorrow! bye for now and hail noobia!
