|
Posted by LordDean on 2011/9/4 14:20:00 (8196 reads) |
Hello to all of you lovely Wolves out there,
Another week gone by and another newsletter from the council, This time, the new council.
There is alot of news this week so hang on tight, its alot to take in.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Right whats first on the agenda.
New members!!! Jeej
Lets give B0ssPlayaZ and Tesla a warm welcome, and a round of applause for sticking around and putting up with us long enough to get in.
Remember guys, don't forget to wear the [WPC] tags, and wear them proud, oh and remember that your actions now not only speak for you but this entire gaming community, so do us proud!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upgraded server perks
Hemi has kindly updated the WPC server perks on all of our servers and wow they they are alot nicer . But i find myself missing a few pipe bombs .
Here is a small rundown of the changes
KF Changelog :
- Added new and improved perks
- No longer spawn with wrong weapons (eg demo with ak47)
- Choose different perk on death
- New Shop System were all weapons are grouped to the perks
- Machine gun pack now works with the perks :
:: DP28 - Support :: BAR - Commando :: BREN - Commando :: Browning - Demo :: FG42 - Support :: MG34 - Demo :: MG42 - FireBug
- Scoreboard shows the amount of money folk have so we can kick idiots that hoard it.
- Added various useless guns from the past...since we now can put unlimited amount of guns in the shops.
- changes a few things to the perks...like commando having a damage bonus now! :D And bezerker and Commando spawn with scar and katana on high perks.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Live Game Streams
Myself/Lorddean and Whisky have been tinkering around with streaming our games live for people to watch when they just cant be bothered to move the mouse.
What do we stream i hear you ask.
Well currently LordDean streams any game that he plays, Whisky on the otherhand is more picky and streams when he feels like it hehe
Game streams: -
Killingfloor
Want to know what its about if you dont already know? Or you just want to watch wave upon wave of Specimens and killing, whist you eat some cheese and crackers?
Then you will enjoy the killing floor stream, you can follow the progress of Lorddean or Whisky in each game, see the great shots and dodges and the silly mess ups that get them killed. When killing floor is live, it can be highly amusing to watch.
Brink
Watch Lorddean fail spectacularly in everything he does in this game, he is pretty useless but still find its fun. Whisky on the other hand has a dapper hand in this game so following his live stream may be a little more interesting the "one step -> dead" antics of LordDean.
Serious Sam
When Serious Sam is streaming, its...........unique to say the least, pure unadulterated mindless slaughtering and fast paced explosive gameplay make this one a very good watch..... if you can keep up that is....
Eve online
Love it or hate it or dont know what the hell this is? Well from the outset it looks kinda boring, clicking buttons and waiting in space, but time it right? you can see some of the most high octane, heart pumpingly good, space sci-fi MMO action around. PS we are in a war at the moment, so missions are out and mining is just a no go, so unless we have a good fleet there wont be much action...... just so you know.
All live streams will be recorded by LordDean or Whisky, so if you missed something live, you can go back and see it again. in the Video On demand sections of the LiveStream.
Click here to see the WPC TV section of the site, links are coming after some tweaking regarding aspect are made
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Minecraft
WPC Minecraft Server now supports multiverse.
Use the the red arches next to the spawn points to go back and forth between the new world and old world.
Report any bugs/problems to Whisky or LordDean
Expected minecraft 1.8 release is 2-3 weeks time.
Reminders/Notes.
-We ask Nether portals and Nether travel is refrained from until we have it nether generation and portal stable. If you need anything from the nether there is a market in the old world where you can obtain the materials. Simply travel to the old world and use the '/warp market' command.
-Try not to venture further out. It's rumoured that the 1.8 changes will be generated with the terrain. So if we've got a world that takes 10 days to walk across it borks that. You know who you are.
-And check out our WPC logo in game if you haven't already, its lovely!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New Forum Created
We have recently created a new forum concerning EVE online, as we have had several members playing this for a fair few months, its only fair that they have a to post the thoughts and ideas concerning the game.
Not only that this forum is also intended for those of you who hear EVE chatter on Teamspeak and haven't a clue what any of it means, so over then ext few weeks I, LordDean, will be posting a fair few topics on EVE online for those of you that dont understand the terminology. Everything from different ships, to weapons to enemies and bloody lins will be posted.
I'm personally doing this because I feel that with understanding comes tolerance and with tolerance come, my ability to play a game without feeling like im insulting a load of people on Teamspeak and not letting them have there turn at talking, even if they dont talk, or just want to be the only one talking hehehe just kidding.
And speaking of Teamspeak bring us to our next topic.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Teamspeak Changes
Now, this topic is a little tricky for me, it has come to light, that some people dont like our teamspeak server or do not come back to it due to eve talk.
First off, im quite affronted that people didnt approach the accused with the problem as that is the fastest and most efficient way of sorting a problem, instead, made complaints elsewhere. I must urge you, if you have a problem with a certain aspect of the wpc, please approach the problem, if then it is not sorted, then approach a Long Fang (council member)
We are Grown people here, and can sort our problems without being childish.
Now the changes that have been made thus far include: -
- Public Chat room - For chatter only
- Cross gaming chat - for chatting whilst playing games
- EVE has its own sub-channels now
Now these changes have been made to reduce the ammount of people moaning about people talking about EVE online.
Thus if you are in Public chat, your there to chat, if your in Cross gaming chat, your gaming and chatting, so alot of crazy unintelligible communication will take place in this room.
If you wish to game and chat about the game only, then using the provided Channels is for you.
We have to do this to reduce the moaning, and give every one a chance to talk, And staying as a Community and in constant communication. so as usual the most popular hang our will be Public Chat.
These changes are not indefinate, and are only as a trial, so please "bare with" (miranda joke there :D)
And in teamspeak "KEEP THE SWEARING TO A LIMIT PLEASE!!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that is all, for this is week, a few exciting bits of news, and a few serious topics but its all said and done, and we can go back to being a happy community.
And remember, theres always a wolf in EVE. HAHA!!
xx

Re: Newsletter 76
First things first, "I'm a mayn" secondly i might like the whip hehehe but the last part was serious, if EVE talk is getting out of hand, the people that have issue, should say to the EVE talkers, its the only way! hehe

Oh umm sorry about the swearing.
I was cursing alot when I found myself only with a portal gun and about eighty fleshpounds/scrakes/brutes etc left. I'll try and remember next time to keep it to a limit.
