So, my last comment on this was the 31st, that was just about 10 days ago. A few is more than a couple but less than several. I'd say usually a few is 3 weeks. Regardless of how many you decide "a few weeks" are, a week and a half (again 10 days) is not a few weeks.

second, say my name all you want, it's a cool name I like it too, but it doesnt notify me when you say it nor when you tag me.

well, they got 5 days to prove me wrong or I could say "I told you so" :)


Although not releasing in "early February" doesn't prove I was right, it a hint!

And I'd rather be wrong and surprised and that the relaunch happened today than be right.

They cannot relaunch the next phase yet as I have too many things to take care of in the real world. Bitbox, please delay for at least another 2 weeks.

Apologies if I sound rude, but it's been over 2 weeks since the last post in the news section with any actual news. Early February is obviously out of the question now so before March?

Still waiting for linbaba to post his "I told you so" reply.. seeing were the 17th now its even 7 days after his post. :Bravo:

Guy's, girls.. all be patient. It will be ready when its ready! Rome wasnt build overnight, neither does a game. Nor is it free to build :P things just cost money to make, so dont give the devs crap and a hard time about slacking work or taking your money. U send it yourself to make a great game even better.. and to make things better u need to put in alot of work!

But I was asking if there was any news, not accusing the developers of slacking or anything of that nature. As I said, early February is gone so a simple post with information is not unreasonable I don't think.

I think you have a great future in community management!

What will be will be! Cities take more than one evening to build, games also take more than one evening to build. In fact, building cities and games is not free :oops: , that's because making things cost money, so let the devs do whatever they want, give them all the money you have. You're doing the right thing for making a great game even better and to make LIF MMO great again you need to put in alot of work!

Just saw that, but I'm totally confused now....

I thought it was supposed to last much more than 2 weeks?

Because at the end of it, (as was said by Aratis) there is server wipe and start of open beta....

(((EDIT : ie open beta starts next month)))


Either way, I'm just happy to play, they may suck really bad at communicating and stuff but they do have a great idea for the game and I'm looking forward to it !

Yes communication is not a strong point. But open beta is definitely not next month :)
How long the downtime will be depends on how many bugs and critical issues surface, no one can know that yet.

Open beta (wave 2) looks like summer at very best scenario. Till then such "phases" of wave 1 with increasingly shorter downtimes. They were hoping to get to a stable point during wave when it will be up for a week and then down for 1 or 2 days for patching.

hmmmm

5. end of wave 1 means full wipe?
Answer: Yes, we've stated it in news.


(((((so that means in 2 weeks full wipe ??? (20th February + 2 weeks)))))


6. wave 2 will start immediately when wave 1 ends?
Answer: Well, might need a week or two to get everything prepared.



((((( So that means there willl be a couple weeks dowtime in March and then wave 2 will start, with a "fresh start"))))))).

7. wave 2 planned to end when?
Answer: It's is too far to plan this. Hopefully at the end of 2017.


((((((So wave 2 that is starting next week will last until end of 2017))))))

8. open beta starts immediately after end of wave 2? (no wipe?)
Answer: Look previous questions and answers, please.

((((I just realised I may have mis interpreted this answer, he (or she) didn't mean "look previous question because answer is the same" (ie: open beta = wave 2), but "open beta will follow wave 2 like wave 2 followed wave 1, ie: with one or two weeks downtime ))))

please-could-we-have-a-clear-answer-to-the-beta-start-and-en-t22016/



BUT, wait for a second, what that means is that after the close of wave 1 (in a few weeks) then the servers will not be wiped until launch?

Way I see it, in most games I played, the last wipe pretty much means "launch"...

wave 1 = CBT (Closed Beta Test)
wave 2 = OBT (Open Beta Test)

Who said CBT is only 2 weeks (well 4 with next phase)? Wave 1 will run for quite some time still with UP times (open servers) and DOWN times (hopefully much shorted the the last 2 months one). They will be adding new stuff when the stability improves which is the focus now. This test run we will get the new combat skilltrees along with the Newbie Island a bit later.
For the next "phase" (3rd already) the horse drawn carts should be ready, maybe even the natives and personal claims. There is also weapons crafting rework (same as with armors to make them reg. resources and blueprints) planned or in early development already. Same with the cooking, And this is the stuff that we know.
But most of all Bobik's promise is that we will NOT move forward to wave 2 (OBT, wipe) without the war mechanics. Which means instanced battles, siege system and everything related. They are not even in active development yet, because the focus is the stability. That's why I said the summer at best - that's pretty large component that is to be done still, won't happen in 1-2 weeks. Not to mention the needed testing of that component (aka wave 1 still).

Wave 2 or OBT is something like soft release. Everyone can start and all the fundamental will be ready, but not all the planned eyecandy will be in place. No ships and secondary stuff like that. Plus optimisation and some final polish. Yes wipe after 2 too is kind of logical, but at the same time the progression speed will be x1 (2x slower then now) and it will run for months without major gameplaychanges that require a wipe. So if you wipe months of x1 grind of everyone who was interested in LiF (all 400 000+ YO owner get access for that) to just say from tomorrow we are released you will just lose big part of the population.

basically, in the announcement

development-news-39-lsquo-custom-maps-and-awesome-apps-rsquo-t22508/


Breaking news! Second test run of LiF:ММО CBT(wave #1) will start on February 20th and we’re planning on it being held for two weeks - save the date and get excited!



"we're planning on it being held for two weeks" = it will last two weeks..?


I mean if I'm misinterpreting this then it's really getting silly, it shouldn't be that hard to say things clearly in a way that there can be no misinterpretion, cause to me, that clearly means "it will last two weeks" ...

You said it yourself and the answer is right here in what you put down.
Second test run of LiF:MMO CBT (wave #1)

That means that this will be the second part of Wave #1, which will, just as you quoted, last 2 weeks. The Devs will then take the servers down again to do any maintenance they have to do and bring them back up as Part 3 of Wave 1. Hopefully they're much quicker with that down time than this recent one.

Just don't get your bubble bursted when someone from the staff actually clarifies :)
Beta 2 isn't soon.

I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying what was officialy confirmed is different / contradictory to what you're saying... It could well be that what they "officially confirmed" was wrong and frankly, I wouldn't be surprised..

personally I couldn't care less how things are organised and planned, I would however really like to know about the dates and wipe and launch etc

There was never any info on how many parts to Wave 1 there would be. Only that there would be some of them. All I can say for sure, is that Wave 2 is definitely not until Summer at the earliest. Look how long it took just to get between 2 parts of Wave 1?


A lot of the parts aren't ready yet for Wave 2.

Someone can tell my why it will be only 2 weeks open?
Just the reason. Im just assuming, they will colect data from 2 weeks, and closed server. So why they can't collect data from next 2 weeks and just dont closed server? Just dont get it. What that bothers?
What i have seen, that server running 24/7 they just closed, but not shutdown.
