Dev Tracker

@Nachtwulf, we understand that there is some concern about the recent incidents across the web regarding the Heartbleed security bug. Like many other websites, please know that the development team is very aware of the issue and has taken steps necessary to ensure that Flight Rising and its users are safe.

@GryphonSoul, please send in another Contact Us. We had some physical rewards sent back to us "Return to Sender" and we need those backers to contact us individually.

@Iconoclast, players must be 13 or older for an account with Flight Rising.

As to the same household, sharing a home, IP, computer, playing with your family is not going to flag you as a possible multi-accounter.

We will be taking the site down for a short period at 12:05 server time.

@wildcat - That is possible. :) I'll do a quick summary right now!

• Second accounts are against the Terms of Use and will result in both accounts being permanently closed.

• Housemates/roommates/families, we take this into account. Simply sharing a residence or computer is not enough to warrant account action under multi-accounting.

• Lost accounts - Send us a Contact Us titled 'Flight Rising Account Recovery' with all the information you have on the account, including any and all personal information attached to your account, things no one would know except you.

@Vitalani, @Miriam, it's something I can discuss with the rest of the team!

Hello @Moons, I've passed this and your friend's contact on to the Administrative team, I'm sorry for the delay.

@ZoroarkSKA, have your friend send us a Contact Us titled "Flight Rising Account Recovery" with as much information about the account as she can give us.


@Rangiku, right now this is just a scheduled window.

If you have friends that want to join, be sure to provide them with your user name so they can use you as a referer. We have a low-key referral bonus where whenever the person you referred purchases gems, you get bonus gems free!

@Jenetikitty, we are aware that players can share households/IPs/computers and that is taken into consideration; simply sharing an IP is not enough to be investigated or actioned under multi-accounting.

We are pleased to announce that Flight Rising will be opening a registration window for new users Monday, April 14th starting at 5:00 server time and ending at 5:00 server time on April 15th. We are excited to welcome new players to our game! We will be monitoring site performance during the window and week following. If this window goes well we will be opening up additional windows shortly thereafter, with open registration as our final target.


As a reminder for our current players, individuals are limited to one account per person. Additional accounts are against our TOS and are problematic for the site. Registering a second account can result in the closure both accounts. Please be awesome, stick to one account, and have a great time! Doing so will ensure and a fair play experience for everyone. Our players make the community and game the amazing, creative space that it is.

@Gloommom, I know. It's the same for me on my play account. /sniffle

@JCStitches, that particular bit of information is secret. ;)

@nika, each Coliseum zone has its own set of enemies. There are some types that can and do "bridge" zones but not all.

@Cheese, yes, it has always been there but it's no longer used. I'll mention this to the rest of the team.

@Edaigoa @Penemuel There were only ever 5 skins available in the marketplace this holiday. There was a typo in the announcement for a few hours, but that is all. You didn't miss anything, and their availability was not changed mid-way through. Apologies for any confusion.

@JetBlackSteel, @tec, as of right now, this is not a possibility. I can mention it to the rest of the team but I can't make any promises. What I can tell you is that getting through the submission queue is priority right now and I'm poking them daily about the queue.

There will be a break in submission approval/disapproval while the artists get some much needed sleep but they are priority and they are getting done. Thank you so much for your continued patience. I'm making sure you are heard.

@Skyie We didnt' want to be incredibly specific it in the update itself because at that time people were enjoying the surprises in their hats and may not have yet known it was bunnehs.

Basically you won't find hats anywhere. They're done and retired.

You WILL find the bunnies, but they're going to not be super easy to get. They are not retired, but are only available through RNG luck. If you open an iron or gilded chest you have a chance at them, and Pinkerton has a chance to give you one. So they're still obtainable for the future if you want to collect them all and for new players.

@Ilium It opened into another hat on April 1rst. On April 2nd-3rd it turned into an unopenable trinket. Tonight the hat finishes its trick. :)

While I was able to take some time to work on this update, I'm not fully back yet. I will continue to make updates as I am available. Unfortunately this will not be as often as any of us would like.

Within the twisting halls of Spiral Keep, the scrying pool of the TideLord has been opened to all dragonkind. Those who show proper reverence to the god of the fathomless depths may use this workshop to peer into every possible future outcome for the dragons of their clan.



Within the Scrying Workshop, future-seeking dragons will find the tools and magics necessary to do the following at their leisure:

• Assay Bloodlines
  For clans that want to keep their bloodlines strong and diverse, this tool allows the scryer to see if two dragons are genetically eligible to breed with one another. Unlike the Nesting Grounds, this tool does not factor in breeding cooldowns and can be used freely on any pair of dragons.
  
  
• Foresee Progeny
  For clans that are looking to produce a specific type of dragon or breed for a specific gene or color combination, this tool allows the scryer to see a sampling of possible hatchlings between any two dragons. As with the Nesting Grounds, these are not guaranteed, but merely a few possibilities.
  
  
• Predict Morphology
  Quite possibly the most unstable of the magics available within this workshop are the scrolls that allow the scryer to see every draconic morphological possibility at once. It is recommended that one not stare too long at the visions conjured by this tool, as they may render color-blindness. This tool allows the previewing of all breed, pattern, and color combinations.

Wavecrest Saturnalia Skin Contest
The end of this month will see all of dragonkind come together to celebrate the Wavecrest Saturnalia, starting April 27th. We are running a skin contest for water-themed skins. Click the banner for additional information if you are interested in painting a homage to the water flight:



Marva's Hats
Marva appears to have finally perfected the magic act she bungled on April 1rst: How foolish!
The results of her trick will continue to be available as random chest drops and Pinkerton offerings, and are not retired, though the hats themselves are.


Dragon Share Theme: Unusual Color Combinations
We're having a theme week in the forums. Share your favorite color-confused dragons! Be sure to check Dragon Share every Monday morning!

@SunWorshipper, thank you! I'll pass the information onto the developers to see if they can make sense of it.

@Vinyl, I'm sorry for the inconvenience and frustration I'm sure this is causing you. @Mayana has gone through all the standard trouble shooting.

What kind of connection are you using?

@SunWorshipper, can you please try this in Internet Explorer?

@Abril, the artists won't always be able to interact one on one with the Skin thread, that is there to help condense and streamline the information in one spot for the artists rather than all over the forums.

I've communicated the community's frustration and concerns to them and they are pushing through the queue.

@Abril, I can personally assure you that they are being heard. There is a very large queue to work through and they're working through it as fast as they humanly can.

@tabbyqueen, Marva is trying to perfect the next spell! Two spells going wrong in a row? How embarrassing!

Happy to hear everything worked out!

I understand, I've alerted the developers for further investigation.

Marva must be up to something again, it might be worth holding on to them. ;)
