Lots of balancing changes have arrived!
We have been listening to the feedback you guys have been giving around progression on the server. We understand that all of the levelling rewards were cash based so once you got higher levels things were wasted, this lead us to take a look at all of the progression within the server, not just the levelling!
First we decided to address the levelling reward issues, we have removed all cash & items from levelling and have decided to give people access to certain plugins / features instead. To us this seems better as its something to work towards by continually playing the server and its not something you will lose on wipe. You can find a full list of the changes to levelling rewards below.
We then looked at Virtual Quarries and realised they were a bit too easy to get so early into wipes. We looked at Raidable Bases and realised there wasn’t really a need for people to do them once they had the boom for nightmares. We took these 2 situations and created one solution, you now need to find engine parts from different tiers of raidable bases to upgrade your virtual quarry. You will gain the first level of quarry in the usual way, reach level 30 and its unlocked for you! Upgrade 1 of your quarry now needs a Bronze Engine, this can be acquired by doing Regular raidable bases. There is a 10% chance of this appearing in the loot table so it might take some bases to be able to get it! The Silver Engine comes from the Hard raidable bases and the Gold Engine comes from the Expert raidable bases, like the bronze these are also both a 10% drop chance!
Whilst we were doing these changes we also put all of the “buyable events” into the /shop, this is Raids, Custom Helicopters and also now Custom Cargo Ships! They’re our new event we’re adding to the server this month, get to level 40 and you will be able to call in a Custom Cargo Ship. These scale in level similar to the Custom Patrol Helicopter (Easy, Regular, Hard and Boss) and the loot also scales.
