Flight Rising Discussion

I'm hoping it's a nesting revamp!

[/quote] It wasn’t obvious, but they are actually released since they have the “www1.” They were just only mentioned on the Site Status if I remember right. Anyone can correct me if I’m wrong.

[/quote] Oh yeah, I remember those updates now that you mention it. I suppose I forgot because I expect that eventually they'll update the art on all of the Trading Post NPCs. But it's possible that won't happen until some time later. Although, with that in mind, it's also possible that the Nesting grounds, Dom, Festive Favors, etc. won't get any kind of revamp either when they're refactored. I Know PVP has been discussed by the devs (although considering beta hasn't started yet, that probaly won't be released with the Anni, unless that's when beta testing starts) but besides that, have then mentioned anything about revamping those gameplay aspects? :thinking:

I honestly wasn't going to believe the new modern hype...been around too long to get my hopes up there...except someone mentioned the Jan 2020 post. And darn.

Could it REALLY be? They were 75% done with the apparel backlog over a year ago. Adult images done. All that was left was 25% of the apparel backlog, hatchie art, and genes (which were redone so they weren't as time consuming)... A year and half from that post and it sounds like it could actually be a thing. Especially when you consider they haven't done a gene or apparel up date for awhile this year. -fingers and toes crossed-

Now I'm REALLY hyped for the 8th!

To be honest, I hope it is a brand new mechanic instead of a revamp, something that has more interaction along the lines of the coliseum rather than trading post NPCs...

But, I do think it will probably be the new modern or a revamp of the nesting grounds or profiles.

Hmmm... A new modern would be GREAT, especially considering we got a revamp-type feature for the last anniversary. Not like I’d be complaining at a nice big revamp, but even so... moderne.......

[quote name="Transkovsky" date="2021-06-02 21:47:23" ] one pixel is added to the logo. no other changes /j [/quote] Cursed I won't be able to log on the day of the anniversary but maybe that's for the best because if it [i]is[/i] a new modern the site will be SUPER slow :/

I would really like a whole new mechanic added to the site too, but I think gameplay-wise it would be more natural if it happened after the the refactoring was entirely finished. They're pretty close to being done now, so it shouldn't take that much longer, I'd think?

On the other hand, we did get the eye update a few years ago, which was a new mechanic, although I imagine it takes advantage of preexisting code, so I don't know how much it actually would have taken to implement.

Really, I'm just extremely curious and extremely bored right now because I don't want to spend any money on any of my projects until Anni comes around, haha.

[/quote] Yeah, I don't think that new mechanics on the order of the coliseum (ie, able to use until you decide you don't want to, not limited by time or energy or a cap etc..) are close to being finished, that is just want I want :) New mechanics could also take advantage of new code as well, unless it was intertwined with thngs that are still using the old cold (ie, something like the coliseum doesn't really need to interact in a meaningful way with non-refactored pages, so a self-contained mechanic like that wouldn't necessarily need to depend on old code. I feel that it would be more that their coders are more focused on smaller things in addtion to the larger rewriting the code for the parts of the site that needs it.) But yeah, I feel a revamp is much more likely, or a new Trading Post NPC with a new mechanic there, which would be fun, don't get me wrong. I just want more interaction with the site itself rather than click a couple of buttons and then have to wait an hour etc...
