Arcfall News

This update has more work being done to the back end of the game so not allot of new content in it but we are slowly making progress with some bugs.

**Fixes:**

- Fixed Settings to properly work again.
- Fixed Loot Drop for Alpha Greyback Wolf.
- Fixed Action bar so items do not overlap or cover hot Key UI.

We also want to thank everyone who has helped with finding bugs and also supported us through the in-game store. Without your support this game would not be possible.

Thanks you for testing our next version, we could not get everything in which we planned to get into this release so am keeping it at pre-alpha. We will be doing another release on the 28 December where we hope to move out of pre-alpha. With this release there will no longer be any character wipes so you can play and level your character as we have systems in place to modify items on the fly. We have added around 150 new crafting items, a auction house, Ship travelling tickets between island for fast travel, new crafting stations and balanced all weapons and crafting xp for easier gain. There is also a improved crafting system allowing crafting multiple items at once. We hope to see you in game!

The server will be down from now till 21 December so that we can do the massive update to it for our next phase in Arcfall, taking the game from Pre-Alpha to Alpha. This will be a massive update and no more character wipes is expected after this update. We look forward to see you in game on Friday 21 December. Server and update will be live at around 5 PM Mountain Time. If you have any questiosn please feel free to contact us on the forum or on Discord.

We have been working on the back end of Arcfall while doing small releases in the past few months. We can now announce what we will be releasing on December 21 2018. We will be doing a major update and will be moving from Pre-Alpha to Alpha. With this we will be adding in all features we will be releasing on Full Release of Arcfall. As this is a major release and we are finalizing most features that will be in the full release we are going to have to do a full character wipe unfortunately. We have been trying to incorporate backdating on character stats with current characters but unfortunately we could not get it to work with current characters so will not be able to return your current characters stats. One of the major items we are adding is backdating of Items so after this release we do not intend to do any more wipes of characters or items. As we are moving from Pre-Alpha to Alpha you will be able to fully play Arcfall with out loosing anything on wipes after December 21. Here is a list of all the things that will be in the release:

Features:

• Auction House: This will allow players to place items up for sale on Auction for others to purchase, Auction houses will be spread around the world but will all be linked.
  
• Socketing System: Players will be able to add socket crystals to weapons and armor and improve stats on said weapons or armor.
  
• Enchanting System: Weapons can be enchanted to higher levels ranging from level 1 to 100 improving certain stats.
  
• Armor Sets: We will be adding in Armor set bonuses if you wear a full set.
  
• Item Backdating: Before any changes we did to a item only got applied to a new item, now with this all items players have will be updated with any changes.
  
• Housing: Players will now have plots for sale to purchase with in-game currency and have different tiers of housing to build.
  
• Stealing and Karma fully integrated so PvP aspect is properly introduced.
  
• Adding in all Skills Active Abilities that players currently have which is aroudn 26 Skills each with around 29 Abilities.
  
• Adding Archery as a new combat style.
  
• Introduction to Taming system which will allow players to tame pets and create mounts from certain pets.
  
• Mounts crafting, allowing players to create mounts.
  
• Two new Islands to explore which will bring the current content up to Lvl 30.
  
• Additional 50 Quests to help guide players.
  
• Additional 14 new Mob types.
  
• Female Player Character so you can choose between play as a male or female character.
  

Along with all this we will be implementing many fixed and improvements on both game play and game interface. We look forward to doing this release and appreciate all the support we have received thus far from the amazing community of Arcfall.
