so other than crafting there is nothing  to do?  Kill mobs collect loot and do what? what for the reset to waste all that time again collecting stuff?

Where are the vehicles? There is no new content for a couple years now? just a new game engine.  The game is blank there is nothing to do. 

Please correct me and let me know what there are to do other than collecting pointless loot, and crafting to sell stuff? The skills we get wont be kept. 

I am baffled as to what to do?  I have money to play but spend it on what? I am trying hard to figure out what is fun
My skills from Alpha came trough to Survival along with the gear.. Why would'nt skills be kept? Is there official statement somewhere telling that at some point everything  we have in the way of gear and skills will be wiped in future? If no, then you simply can have head start compared to people joining up later..

The one huge difference I see at the moment is that updates DO come, come frequently and broken stuff gets fixed.. In past 7 days  I have seen 3-4 updates which is totally awesome. Once the basic game mechanics does work, devs should start worrying about adding content.
UG mining, taming still missing, remember.. plus countless small bugs to ferret out.. bit too early for "new" content like vehicles in my humble opinion..

We are going to shutdown the AfterWorld: Alpha World servers in a short time. It will be taken down, and everything you have in Alpha World will be moved to the Survival database, so you won't lose anything*.

I think the moving of alpha database will overwrite survival database.

Ya it has been said that what we are doing here is testing.  The skill gained will be deleted.

"loose everything"
If you mean that everything we do in Survival TESTING will be wiped when Alpha is transferred to Survival - then you are correct (however, you will have all the items and skills you had in Alpha)

"there is nothing to do"
If you mean that version C209.02 lacks ALL the activities we do in Alpha - then you are correct. However, I doubt this is the FINAL list of activities planned before switching off Alpha.

However, if you are implying that you want to retain everything you gain in Survival (i.e. have Alpha and Survival items + skills merged) - then I believe you will be disappointed as DL has already given their ruling on that.

so other than crafting there is nothing  to do? 

Nothing to do? Test! Isn't that what we all applied for was to be a tester? If you don't want to test, then I suggest maybe be patient.

Not much hope for keeping topics on track ... not active moderator and I am sure that DL have better things to do with their time.


Hopefully Technicator will volunteer to take up this role ... I miss the convenience of having posts moved magically to where they belong.

I oftenly fund gameplay of my pupils - ones I know in RL - in other game via Ukash (GBP),
but AlertPay (Payza) & Neteller would be a good options to start along with SMS-based
paymentsolutions, like ones offered by SMSCoin, for a smaller sums due to not so small

% taken by mobile services providers. At AW I use WebMoney (WMZ) mostly and hadn't
any problems with it so far. The point is, at Alpha implementing payments options above
would boost game income for devs a bit, because not all of people can use WebMoney or

PayPal from where they lives, when Survival is too fresh brand new and basic activities isn't
supported yet, so donating at AWS can be reasonably expected only from a player, already
being a Citizen, not much to do for a newbies, especially w/o noobot runs for a Citizenship ;)

Bump! pretty logical to bump this thread now as bringing in more payment methods may increase revenue for AWS.

Good memory, I'd forgotten about this thread - not that that's a shocker. 8-D

The fact that there are 17 votes for some variation of "yes for x payment method" and 17 for some variation of "no, payment methods don't matter to me" is a good indicator that a lot of people might not be able to donate with only PayPal and WebMoney. The fact that the Donations link above only links to PayPal limits this even further, though how much effect is has is hard to say.



I doubt that it would take much work for vik to open accounts with some of the other payment methods that are out there, so I hope he looks into it. One payment method I've been watching closely lately is Dwolla, which charges a flat fee of $0.25 per transaction of anything more than $10 and is free for less than that.

Re: why payment options?

Currently it's not an issue of payment options, though.
With no cuttable grass production of medkits is stuck,
devs thinking about shiny avatars w/o being in skin of
a player themselves doesn't understand there's really
no broad range of activities for freshly baked avatars.

All that clones thing, when at EU death & revive is free,
absence of vehicles, no-idea-what RICs-is-for-actually,
doesn't brings crowd of dedicated players to AWS and
never will, untill things will be fixed, starting from basics.

I have over 4** AWD in my storage + *** tones of loot
after swallowed my socmate's ava w/o ability to use it..
