Since the population has been fairly low as of late, we are going to be giving players a taste of the upcoming patch.  We will be launching the new HP modifications and some skill mods to current classes.  This will be a gradual thing and not be instantaneous.  During this time we will be editing things as things are launched as we do not currently have a test server that works 100%.  We will be launching the new hp amounts tonight.

This is something we are considering at this time, this is not official as of yet.  Recently we have had to cancel story events on saturdays because of low turnouts.  What we are debating on doing is going back to our "sin wars" format but revised slightly.  This format means that story "events" will be announced and will be less frequent.  This also means events will be more meaningful to attend.  This does not mean that RP will take a backseat to everything else however.  We will still have NPC roaming the world from time to time and let people interact with them however they choose (And also suffer the reaction of their choice).  However, to reduce the irritation of not knowing when a "yet to be introduced" NPC will be on for interaction, we will have any hard to reach npcs online on saturday which will also include yet to be introduced npcs.  This is currently just a thought and we would appreciate feedback on this concept.

For those who are constantly wanting to know how far along we are in developing, we creating something for you.  ROBD has its own twitter account that we are going to update with ONLY development steps.  we are at http://twitter.com/ROBlackDawn .  We will only be doing quick posts so expect gramer erors and speln mistakes.  If you were hoping for something like this but didnt want the spelling mistakes, then leave yourself in the dark.

The server is now up, SIP ended up moving us to DC.  Fortunatly, they did move everything and thanks to various IP forwarding methods, we are up and running much faster than antisipated.  In anycase now, all patchers should download ch1.9.9.1 and ch1.9.9.2 and patch automaticly.  All is well now.

Yea, I haven't posted any new news in awhile.  Heres the plan right now, the skill trees for CH2 are set, we arent making any changes for them until the next patch.  This was decided awhile ago, now this isn't because I hate suggestions, its because we are aproaching deadlines and this needs to launch.  Now the development for the patch is almost done, all that remains is some teadious work.  If you are able and willing to help, please notify me on AIM at eagle22822.

and I do appologise but the x-mas script isnt working properly, so this and next wednessday, we will hold OCC x-mas events.  And I will keep the monsters spawned after the event so those who were unable it can still enjoy the holiday goodies while they last.
