what the fuck was the thought process behind these

if there even was one at all

hello moonless

In summary, based on a text I wrote, I would prefer they took longer with the dragon update to release some of the story along with the frigate. Dragons involve the Dark Sea, and finding them involves using the Brig, the same Brig we’ve been using for about two years. My comment isn’t exactly a criticism, but if we’re finally going back to the Dark Sea for hours, or even playing there for weeks, it should be with a new boat. Anyway, it’s just a personal opinion; I’m not pressuring Vetex or anything. Therefore, if they did an Easter egg event, they would have more time to improve the dragons and add more things. While we wait for dragons, we can keep ourselves busy with eggs for one or two weeks. I know that many users doesn’t like the Easter event, but look, there’s no denying it, it’s the best excuse.

*The original text talked more about navigation methods and how dragon spells like riding could be slower than flying but last twice as long, or something like that. Anyway, I thought it got too long and didn’t quite fit the topic.

I guess fighting dragons does call for a ship upgrade.
Imagine people having to hunt down frigates to upgrade their fleets

does this mean we’re getting a look on lost magics that arent in game or is vetex coding stuff like flare and gravity (assuming dragons couldnt use those before) for them to use rn

Flare and Gravity are basically fully coded, not balanced towards players using them, but still coded. I believe we’ll see ones that were never in-game[1] before the update.

i’m talking about them being coded for dragons to use them

Pay close attention to the grammar, magic"s" is plural, which means that there should be at least 3 to 5 new Lost magics for us to look at while fighting dragons.`
When will the Easter event be announced

Yeah he’s making new magics, lost magics operate on the same system regular magics do and he already has base magic functionality for the dragons so it’s safe to assume he’s not recoding anything relating to that

Likely as well, Vetex likes to code in an incredibly modular fashion, every magic is the exact same, just with different variables.

Since magics already existed for Dragons, the base-logic is already created, and therefore he can add and remove magics as he wants.

that doesnt really answer my question of whether they’re new magics for dragons or if magics like flare and heat aren’t coded for dragons yet and vetex’s doing that now

i see

It won’t be. April fools!

To be fair, with no patchnotes stating that they have fixed the various spawnrate bugs, it is more true that the jokes are on us

I didn’t even understand it was a question before, kinda tired; I was just saying that I believe there will be new Lost Magics, judging by what has already been explained to you. Around 5 at least. I think creating magic is something Vetex enjoys doing, and I also find the process of creating particles cool.

I have hope until the end of December, after that I’ll give up.


However, what Lost magics do you all think will be added?

Pretty sure new lost magics. I feel like the previous lost magics would already be available for dragons since they’re not much different from the base magics we have and thus shouldn’t be too hard to give to dragons

This was the feature I mentioned before that I was surprised about. I didn’t expect vetex to make more lost magics

bro has completely lost it
he doesn’t care about updating, he only cares about pouring more content…

It’s feature creep, and it’s way more dangerous than just wasting time.
