Is the "new" server up?

 

[Bonafideb3ast]

WOO

"new admin"? Whawhawhawhat your title hasn't changed yet! ;p

 

[WoleverEntun]

The Xandria Dominion will return bigger and better than ever! Edolians! Newerth order people! Rising sun-ers unite! (again)

 

[JenksLaw]

Will we get any time to play the old map? I'd like to take some screenshots so I can rebuild.

Herocraft 4.0​

First off, there isn't an ETA yet (1-2 weeks is our time frame) - there are massive issues with plugins and other things. This will be a COMPLETE wipe. Maps have been archived and all coin/levels/titles (minus Prophet) will be removed. To appease you. We will be releasing the current Dragon map to the current server (current ip = herocraft.zapto.org) and allow for you to play out your remaining days until the great cataclysm. Also, you can access TeamSpeak 3 via TS.DisposableHeroes.Net!​

.​

​

When will this be happening? Also, is the current IP currently the test server?

Terrible mixed feelings,
Server starts are always a great time, yet with 4 kids and 50+ hour work weeks it take me 5 times longer to level then "normal players" and I was just getting to level 58 and higher in my crafts...
*sigh* ohwell we will see what happens!

Okay, for confused people:

1. We will re-release Dragongarde when Kainzo gets the old box back.
2. Dragongarde will continue to run until the new map is ready.
3. Draongarde will be archived and the new map will go live.

How long till the new map?

Fuck yeah!

Massive boxy walls and glass domes = ILLEGAL (will be torn down by admins)

This in particular makes me extremely happy! ^_^

 

[Pugglez_]

Is the current Dragon Map (herocraft.zapto.org) in 1.3 or 1.2.5?

Liking the part about the under-level-10's being PvP protected and tutorial area, it's going to bring in a lot of new people and give them a much better chance to try out the server and Heroes system without being raped at every turn. Also, not seeing anything bad about these updates, looks to be the best one yet!
Judging from what Kainzo said in the first post (about the differences between 1.2 and 1.3), I'm guessing it'll be 1.2.5 on the Dragongarde map, but I could be wrong.*

Edit: Alator beat me to the punch on the ETA, hehe

*Edit: If you mean the current map that it goes to from the main address, that's actually the test server at the moment, and it's 1.3.2.

yes and no - just the MAP and HERODATA will be back. Unfortunately, due to issues with the box - we don't have a backup of the mysql (coins/lwcs) - this was unavoidable during the DDOS.

Leveling is going to be easier for combat stuff.

Another map wipe? feels like zeal just got wiped :/ ah well, things happen, Think im gonna be a useless lvl 20 wizard again

I think gold shouldn't be removed as the sort of currency that it was, I think emeralds should, however, be more valuable. If it is removed, gold will be kind of useless at the durability golden items have.

 

[Mattholomew]

With the coins and LWCs lost, it'll be quite a bit easier to let go of the old server (pretty sure I'll have been raided blind before I even have to chance to log back in Xp), and the leveling up being easier is a definite plus, as I've yet to master a specialization (kinda sad thinking I'm almost on my second year here, but I screw around a LOT ).

I dont think he meant they wont be valueable, just not the biggest economic source, emeralds are even rarer then diamonds, and unless you get villagers it gonna be hard to get a lot, so gold might still have some strength in economy
