Uh oh... looks like the "BIG ONE" may not be far off now. Any guesses for when this will come... like this week (only a guess)?

[berserker]

Hopefully this week. But it will feature Cash Shop and skill/perk reset probably as we decided not to wait for one big update but to separate it into smaller ones.

[Dewdundency]

stupid question... :rolleyes:

The Clans won't be made available yet right?

[berserker]

Good question.
New clan registration will be available soon after Cash Shop launch as clans will be premium (paid) feature.

[HomeRnDrby1]

Will the old clans (ie. Sungas, Hobos United, Voltron, Bloody Wolves) be kept intact after the official release, or will they have to pay to stay a clan?

[berserker]

Existing clans will stay for free as a reward to those beta-testers who thested the game early.

[GoldenDragoon]

hooray, grenades now officially stink

[luke1976]

:confused:What are the costs going to be like ? how much and what for ?

[Dewdundency]

Grenades need to be learned - It's a good idea for more than 1 reason!

[piahoo]

if there is possibility, please change name of clan hobos united...it has nothin to do with old hobos, with tony, ajax, onetower and habibu :(

++ increased requirements for skill to receive free grenade on start

There will be NO official payment like subscription or alike - the game will be free to play forever. But you will be able to purchase stuff from Cash Shop like unique outfit.

If you wanted to put it only because of free grenade then don't. Otherwise greades haven't changed that much. It weights more and do A BIT less damage but everything else is still the same.

Because before this update noone bothered searching boxes for weapons. Everyone felt happy playing with default weapons. We decreased this in order to force people to search for items more.

There is no possibility unfortunately but it was you who decided to abandon Hobos and gave away leadership to FonVald. Can't see why you complain now.

[piahoo]

or encourage to using shop :D

btw idea of smaller maps is wunderbar, and i like it alot ;D i would love if there was smaller memorial boulevard

but i think better solution is less locations, and let players decide of size of map, like they are deciding of time per turn (for example 30x30,40x40,50x50) :rolleyes:

We have added more locations considering that there will be more people once we will start promoting this game soon.
