Development and Darkfall 2.0 update.

We do notice the anxiety on the forums concerning development progress, timing of Darkfall’s re-launch, speculation about a wipe between Darkfall and the re-launch, and our spotty communication as of late. We’ll start addressing these topics here today:

Our sprint meeting happened today and we heard presentations on what people have been working on for the past few weeks. A lot of the work done in the last couple of weeks had to do with the large patch we issued yesterday, so you already know about what was done there.

Development Update March 24th

The patch we were supposed to launch today is not passing final testing yet, bugs keep surfacing and we were forced to abandon our plans for putting it out this week. We’ll need a couple of days of further testing to make sure everything is right.
