Avatar update?
« on: April 15, 2013, 04:48:15 pm »

As soon as we have enough funds, we will invest it to the new avatars (part of work is already done and can be viewed on our website). With that we will be able to give a bigger choice of everything, including different patterns and styles.
Is there any kind of timeline on when this update might occur? I have a friend that would be very interested in AW but he finds low-quality avatars to be too off-putting for me to even suggest he try it out.

Plus it would be very nice to have more options! 8-)

U mean, when there's a beauty update in AW? :)
Well yea, i'm with u in this, all an every update would make the game better...
Just that i have this gut feeling atm, there's either some serious problem on the engine level (related to the ability to manage a large amount of dynamic objects, like: choppable trees, pickable stones, mob spawns) or, maybe there's some IRL problems that keep the devs away from active development work like we saw just a few weeks ago... Just guessing, i have no way of knowing for sure ofc.


O well, have patience, i'm sure we'll have very cool avatars in Survival one day! ;)

I have to admit, although cosmetic things such as how things look have no effect on game mechanics (physical numbers, skills, whatever), it really does make a game more enjoyable if you're able to customize something especially with appearance.

I don't yet feel like they've stopped working on the game. It has been a while since the last update (C220) but it wouldn't be the first time people started wondering if there's anything happening and then we suddenly get another update!

If I have anything it's patience (it's probably my strongest virtue) but that doesn't mean I don't feel the need to poke the devs every so often! 8-D
