  Website Stats Reports
Posted by: Barristan - 28-02-2013, 06:19 PM - Forum: News & Updates - No Replies

Dear NordInvasion Community,

As part of his role Senni is taking care of a full review of the website stats. As many of you know some of the weapons has incorrect stats on the site and some also do not have any stats at all. If you could please report any discrepancies you fine here http://forum.nordinvasion.com/index.php?...55.15.html so that Senni can see to them. He is attempting to be as comprehensive as possible but it is likely that things will be missed. Please remember that you can also make a report if an item is missing stats.

He has already fixed the vast majority of errors and once he gets in front of the wave, life will become a good deal easier.

We appreciate the help of the community in our work.

Love,

The Devs

Calling all artistically inspired members of the NI community,

We need a new logo! That's right, as part of the big oh-five-oh, we want a new logo. The eventual logo will be used on the website, the favicon (the little image in the address bar), and even the upcoming auto-updater.

We are looking for your submissions and will be holding a competition to select the final image and offering prizes as well as your name on the website as a contributor!

The current favicon needs some work

For full details and to post your submissions please see this topic.


Good luck to all and we look forward to seeing what you can create!

Love,

The NI Family

  Swadia's first House Tournament! (EU server)
Posted by: Hypernoma - 25-02-2013, 09:15 PM - Forum: News & Updates - Replies (301)

Brave and loyal Swadians! The Nord advance appears to have slowed down (something about me sending them lots of kegs of Fosters and now they're all really ill) so we see an opportunity to hold some festivities to raise our troops' morale. It is therefore with great delight that I declare we will holding our first House tournament!

Our genius Hande has provided an epic map for the event and the Swadian nobility are looking forward to seeing the houses battle to claim the title of Champions of the Realm! We will be heading over to the neutral Sarranid Sultanate as their cities have not been ravaged by those nasty Nords!

This event will require a lot of planning and scrict adherence to our guidelines and rules. Failure to do so will result in a short walk to the executioners block (a 2 month ban minimum). It is therefore in your interests to read the following information very carefully.

Ok, based on region, potential numbers and day preferred, I have Round 1! Apologies to VLKA but the only other Aussie house is slightly smaller than yours, but if you get to round 2 there may be an opportunity to field a larger team!

I would love to get this tournament started as soon as possible, so if any of the houses that are marked down for next saturday are able to fight tomorrow then that would be perfect! Houses that are marked down for this sunday, I hope you can all manage it!

Can House leaders please work out what time they are able to have their house online and ready to play and post it here in this thread!

Regarding player numbers, if you think your numbers are going to be greater or smaller than the numbers you have submitted to me then please discuss numbers WITH YOUR OPPONENT FIRST! It will be so much easier for me if you guys sort it amongst yourself (I am crazy busy!!!)

In regards to what weapons and armours you want, can the house leader please work this out and then send SENNI a PM and include your character ID in the message please! Equipment will be delivered to the leader to distribute amongst their house.


Down to the rules of the tournament: it will be the first to win 3 rounds, as in the best of 5 rounds wins. I appreciate that this may seem short to you but there are so many matches etc to get through and so much time will be wasted by players getting ready, disconnecting etc etc. Failure to attend will constitute forfeit!

General Rules
  • First and foremost, the tournament will be on a deathmatch server. This means you can kill your teammates (be careful!) but also means that spectators etc can attack each other. Any player that kills another player that is not competing in the arena will be banned.
  • You will listen to the developer team or be removed from the server.
  • You will not attack another player until the presiding Lord declares the match to begin.
  • All players not competing will head to the spectator areas provided.
  • Players will NOT bring weapons onto the server. Only competitors with regulation equipment will be allowed.
  • While some inter-house rivalry is encouraged, trolling/swearing/being a twat is not allowed. The same rules apply for language as on any other server.
  • Teamspeak will be mandatory for this event. There will be many instructions given out over TS and imperative that all players listen and obey.

House Rules
  • Only House Leaders are allowed to post on the sign up thread.
  • There will be an absolute maximum of 25 players per House. This is dictated by map features and size. Concrete numbers will be confirmed closer to the event.
  • Your House will be told how many players it can bring to the event after signing up. It's not fair to have 25 v 8. Do not complain when we tell you how many players you can bring or you will be removed from the competition.
  • The House leader will decide how to pick his team and will inform us when requested who his troop will comprise of.
  • We will provide to the House leader the equipment required for his team based on the information he provides us.
  • Use of non regulation gear will result in disqualification.
  • Your team will be assigned either Red or Green equipment. Use it and only it or be disqualified.
  • Combat will only commence when the presiding Lord declares the fight started.
  • Players equipment will be checked by the arena gaolers before the fight. If players have the wrong equipment, the whole House will suffer my wrath(wraith).
  • Competitors will remain beside their allocated elevator until the gaoler orders the team into position.
  • Any competitor that misses the elevator will miss that round of the match.

Equipment List
  • Tournament gear will be provided to the Houses
  • [/li]

DO NOT USE THE TOURNAMENT GEAR OUTSIDE THE TOURNAMENT
2 MONTH BAN MINIMUM



SUDDEN DEATH Rules
  • 9 champions in the arena, 1 from each house
  • Tournament gear!
  • No fighting until told to start
  • Each champion should be with his back to the wall at the beginning, away from the other champions.
  • It will be Free for all
  • Lowest scoring Champion after 3 rounds is eliminated along with his house.

Rewards
  • 100,000 gold to the House bank
  • 2 free levels of House Crafting
  • A selection of normal and hard mode crafting items including some "rare" drops
  • Mystery goodies...

Love,

The NI Family

  Client Release 0.4.9 'Inspection Time'
Posted by: Hypernoma - 17-02-2013, 12:14 AM - Forum: News & Updates - Replies (66)

Dear Nord Invasion Community,

In preparation for the 0.5.0 release we have found it necessary to release a new client for download. This will hopefully be the last client that you will need to download before the automatic updater is completed. This patch will be introducing some new items and features but is mostly a cleanup of NordInvasion in preparation for our upcoming big release.

I would also like to take the opportunity to remind players to be polite to each other. Remember that you never know who that redshirt you're swearing at... it could be me! At the same time, please don't make a report thread every time you see something a little annoying!!

As a result of our lovely Swadians being all unfriendly to each other, the Norse Gods have decided to punish you for bickering so much. The have sent an old friend from the underworld to silence your voices for ever... Who will meet him first...?

Onto the cheerful stuff;
  • Made the Prince a bit easier to kill
  • Buffed Fearsome Knight Helmet
  • Rebalanced hard mode a bit
  • Fixed Barrel Collission Meshes
  • Fixed Volundr Texture
  • Fixed Claymore... hopefully for the last time
  • New craftable throwing weapons
  • Added other new items, shields helmets etc
  • Fixed Aiming reticle
  • New map - Hande's Retreat
  • New map - Hyper's Hell, Release after patch
  • Two new empty map test slots
  • Few map fixes & Updates
  • Some new scene props for scene makers
  • Ammo Box, Explosive barrel & Barricade props are now a bit smaller
  • Xmas stuff is now removed & Snowballs are replaced with some fun throwing weapons
  • Updated banners
  • A few surprises to be found in Hard Mode now...
  • Moar Rangers..


We hope that this makes the game a bit more interesting and we look forward to playing with you.

As always, get the patch here

Love,

The Devs
