WSE2 Beta and technical issues

[TurmoilTom]

I can already see all the shit-posts about not being able to block while kicking...

By the way, I get to keep this nice purple box, right?

chadz's "a bit more time", a term used in valve calendar.

See you tomorrow.

We want to announce a few things, but first and foremost:

Tomorrow we will release the big WSE2 Beta (also known as client beta). This is something we have been testing and working on for a long time, and, with some delay, is finally ready for the public. So I'd like to invite everyone to test it out tomorrow. It's optional for now, you will be able to decide whether to use it or not in the cRPGLauncher.

As you have without doubt noticed, we had some technical issues lately. They were more "severe" than what we are used to, and also they have hit us from several sides. We had trouble with the webservers and the gameservers at the same time, and fixing this is of high priority, but it might still take some time. This is a shame, really, and users experiencing technical troubles hurts us the most, but we need a bit more time to fix it for real.

In general I want to say that we are working very, very hard on some very cool stuff for all of you. I can absolute assure you that you will appreciate the work, and this will increase player numbers again, but we need a bit more time. Also, the stuff we are working on can't be released half-finished, which is the reason why there weren't many updates lately. So please bear with us, we're doing our best, but our working time is limited, we're all working as fast and hard as possible.

By the way, XP will be doubled tomorrow after the patch is released, to test the patch and the servers.

In old cRPG when there was no launcher, and even for a time when there was launcher, construction sites and things didn't give me any error script messages. Now EVERYTHING gives me script issues if I don't run on launcher, like joining a server. I can't use launcher with Steam, so I just run it without launcher. What is the reason for this?

What is going to change with the WSE2?

WSE2 gives us the key to a wonderful world of butthurt and the ability to significantly increase the cadence of ranged nerfs. For example imagine a mechanic like wind deviating the projectile path, forcing the ranger into the depth of vector analysis before he can reliably hit a target.

is it capable of making a 12-24 shielder with 4ps 1if 8ath 8wm 8shield 172 1hand wpf running around in blue gambeson actually playable without triple loomed weapon? or will the age old tradition of "GLORY TO THE 2HANDED HEROES! (in heavy armour... with lots of str... and little or no WPF)" carry on?

[Paul]

I have a noloom 6/30 shielder and it's fun.

[Dach]

well AGI build are fun not one denying that, but they aren't as effective as STR build.

I think that's what Matey trying to say.

Can my other very specific and extreme build please be buffed as well? I not only want to be original, but also most effective, please. And make it so that everyone else can't use the same build, so I am the only original and effective player on the server, at every time.

[zDevilBox]

This is good!
