Sneak peek into 5.0 - part 1, Clans

​

Salvation update will bring us a lot of changes and will be a grand finale that will finish the story of Embryo and Seven Signs. We don't know what future chapters will bring us, will Shillien be awakened or will Etis van Etina use her powers to become a god himself.

But we can take a sneak peek into the updates that get installed on the Korean version to get a picture of what's (maybe) coming to EU as well.

Please remember though, that EU versions may differ from the KR and for the final information refer to the patchnotes of the appropriate update.
​

Important update:

As Knight Units and the Academies will be removed, any character belonging to them will be automatically kicked when the update is released.

Dear Clan Leaders, please refresh your clan lists and move as many active members to the main clan or Guard Units before the update.

Existing Clans that are already level 11 will have fewer members slots available. However, 200 Members can be unlocked again by increasing a clan level to 15.

 

need more info about clan skills.. they will be something like ability skills? each level you can learn 1 skill?
more clarification about CRP. all crp will be reduced by 90% and those 10% transfered in to tokens and will be in cwh?

 

this should be in the final patchnotes of EU version

 

so not soon

 

is there even 1 for ru? or they also gonna get those patchnotes "soon" ?
wanna bet we gonna read patchnotes (atleast 95% portion of it which gonna apply to our server) at na forums at least 2 weeks before u guys gonna post ru or en version

 

We compile patchnotes in 2 steps:
1) we receive info from the devs and make a beta version - pretty much the same you see here
2) we receive the build, run the tests and edit the patchnotes according to the actual build and received fixes
3) we publish the final patchnotes

now, the delivery of the update is out of our control, as well as the time required to deliver fixes, so it may happen that we publish them later than NA or RU and I think it's more acceptable than publishing unchecked info.

 

maybe it would be acceptable if there would be some preliminary patchnotes - the one u call "beta" (not 1 feature out of whole patchnotes) we dont even know which parts gonna be included and etc.. like @DIL writes from when to when korean patches are included, and ru ppl can check l2central for rough prelims(since regional can be changed, but they get general idea, and eu ppl can do what?)
and even here u published not full info about it, so what was the point in showing very small part of what we gonna get
now we know we gonna get reorganization of clans, what else gonna be included? isses? tanks? tanks with full fixes or first tank update, weapon changes and so on..
i believe its better not make a work at all if its this much unfinished.. we knew update is coming, so if you wouldnt show us this we could have waited a week or so longer for a full prelim patchnotes with more info about everything and ppl could already be preparing for it, not like now clan rep changed so only handfull of ppl will "benefit" from this knowing they need to spend their clan rep since it will be taken so they dont loose it for nothing

 

and what I just did with this post?

because otherwise, you'd wait for another couple of weeks for it, if not more.
I think it's better to translate them part by part and post into easy-to-consume chunks than to spend a whole week for a long post that's hard to perceive. I have quite a tight schedule and cannot commit to translation only.

 

no its better to put full and not chunks, not every1 interested in 1 or another part of update, and giving chunks u are just teasing those who are not interested in that stuff
also for 1st quote u took the part u liked.. the part which ment smth u left outside: - (not 1 feature out of whole patchnotes) we dont even know which parts gonna be included and etc.. like @DIL writes from when to when korean patches are included, and ru ppl can check l2central for rough prelims(since regional can be changed, but they get general idea, and eu ppl can do what?)

 

you can never please l2 players they always find stuff they dont like an QQ all day long.

 

that's what I'm trying to achieve - information equality.
if you don't want to read chunks, you can wait until I translate everything
