After the Rollback

After the rollback occured this afternoon we tried once again to launch the illusive feature ‘Kill’ and once again we just weren’t satisfied and 100% sure that it was working to the level we think you should expect from us. So to avoid further dissapointment and allow us to actually grab some sleep and clear our heads on this one, we’ve decide to temporarily pull the ‘Kill’ feature and made another rollback to the same time to protect the integrity and playability of the game. Kill will be back, and it will be tested and we will make it up to you, that much we promise!

We have however left Attacking another persons turf feature in the game and will continue to monitor it whilst also alot of other new additions have been left around the game.

As i’m sure you will also all agree, some of you have worked very hard for months and months to build your accounts up and for them to be ended by a buggy script seems like a very big waste of time. So when it’s ready and when we are happy it will be back in the game.

We will be putting together a staging area in the morning and will open up some keys to people for beta testing to help test more scenarios quickly through the system. As soon as we are satisfied it is working perfectly we will announce and re-launch the feature.

We are very sorry that this launch did not go smoothly at all and we are going to try and do everything in our power to make sure that this does not happen ever again.

We hope you will accept our sincerest apologies and can still look forward to a time shortly when you will be able to end each others lives. Just not quite yet.

Any players that did buy credits between 2pm and the first major downtime of the launch of kill will have been re-endorsed fully with the credits they paid for.
