Beta Update
Everything you wanted to know about the MMO progress is here! As you know, we have a stable engine and are currently working on content. Things are going slow.... at the earliest, we are planning to begin Beta on Monday, August 18th. This gives us only one week to code all of the starting maps and add all of the monsters.
New Stuff
* New Skills (Monsters can have skills too) - including DOTs!
* Minimal's new Stat and opposing element combat system!
* Canned Chat
* Improved interface
* New Monsters, Weapons, Character Classes
* Mod Tools
* Lots and lots and lots of Bug Fixes
Other neat development things!
We are adding bonus space to the rooms so that you can join your friends even when a room is full. The quest system is in place and we should have both reputation points and game-wide quest competion status working by the time we start Beta.
Beta will be progressive... which means we will release just a little bit to start, and add new things.. and more new things.. and more new things... so you can watch the game grow while you play (literally). When we hit full speed the game will start promoting our 13 super villians. If there is an existing AQ/DF/MQ villian you NEED to have as a main villian in this game.., please let us know ont he forums. We will have a good mix of brand new zone bosses as well as a few of our existing favorites.
Note: We may be putting the servers online from time to time next week. So check back often.
Battle on!

P.S. I sounded so serious in that post! Can someone submit a bug report for that so Zhoom, Minimal or Rolith can get that fixed?
