This, children, is a textbook example of a 'silly question'

New Code. New Database. New game Engine. ummm....yeah

Something we've all been prepared for for a long time. Just to bad Ike didn't hit next year.

That was a nightmare. Couldn't have happened at a worse time.

Easy come, easy go. So is this version going to be retired forever then? If so can we please have an offical send off tournament?

Psychout and the HMW staff will be in charge of all that.

[Nickolai]

The burning question -

Do we keep our current characters at current levels when HMW2 comes out, or is it another start from scratch?

This, children, is a textbook example of a 'silly question'

Not really. Magic Online 3 runs a totally different code from Magic Online 2 and everyone's ratings, collection, etc. was transferred wtithout a hitch.

[Burn]

What was it I said?

Oh yeah ... something like, no one will ever surpass what I achieved pre-reset in this version.

[Editor]

Behold the power of Burn's glowing crotch.

Yeah, but that would have been a send off though eh?

2 questions; Any plans to expand the HMW staff for V2?

When is Psychout going to have a signup for help on that tournie?

Since it's a new game and new code, I'd wager a no, another start from scratch.

Which would mean that everybody has to work on their overall ranking all over again.

Too bad those who cram in loads of hours endlessly now would just wind up wasting their hours.

My only response to that is why not just play the game to have fun. Try to be the last top spot of v1. Try to win a v1 tourney badge so 5 years down the road some noob can ask you what that's for, and you can say "Well you see young buck, back in the day ...". Everyone that is here who thinks they are going to be "wasting" there time isn't here for the fun. Play it to say you did play it. Give yourself a goal before the switch. Build your bots up so you can say you one the tournament that ended v1 (Should there be one, which I don't know why there wouldn't be).

Just have fun .

Oh Moggy, silly young Moggy. You haven't realised yet how selfish a lot of people playing this game are?

Oh how I wish I could claim I were young again Yes I do and that's why I posted what I did I have fun with this game. It brings me back to my childhood and takes me away from playing deputy and military and all the other grown up things I do in life. I always thought when I was younger "I don't wanna grow up" this lets me bring the kid in me back out. Life is to serious outside the game, why make it so serious in the game. It's a good get away that costs nothing but the fraction of the fee for your ISP to play.

Deep Thought o' the day:

The perception of the world is relative to how you look at it. Look at it as wasting time and you will waste time. Look at it as depressing and you will be depressed. Look at it to have fun and you will find fun.

I've seen so much negativity lately that I feel the need to break my usual form of lurking and staying out of verbal battles.

OS, you rock. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. As being a rather new joinee to the community, only having been here for about 7 months, I have enjoyed this game so much that I go through withdrawl when I don't get to play, when family comes into town I worry about how much I'm missing. It's an addiction I've come to love, and I know you and the other staff spend long hard hours putting precious time and resources into a completely FREE game that is done simply for the love of it, with no gain other than the feeling of having done something great for TF fans.

I think people need to realize this. Whatever personal grudges or issues you have, what would happen if the game went away because the developer and one who runs it got so fed up of the flack he was taking? Come on, back off. Enjoy the game! I would have given up long ago if I had to listen to half the crap being tossed his way. I don't know the backstory, I don't care to know it. I just think that everyone who runs this game is damn awesome for writing it, hosting it, and providing it to us.

So bravo. I look forward to V2 with baited breath sure that it will be every bit more exciting than V1.

That was beautiful..........

Oh I do .. with both of them They are starting to be more interested in each other more now, so I get a break every now and then. I know I didn't do a cool mission report for number two but we were at the hospital for 1 1/2 hours and he was out. Got twice the Mogwai kiddos now

Stop it! Stop making me feel bad that I can't join the Maximals. Between admiration for Starlock, my best friend being a Maximal, a working FACTION FORUM and now this general attitude on the other side of the river, I am quite disappointed.

[Judge Chuckachu]

I concur, I get to relive alot of my youth through my child as she actually loves alot of the things I did when I was little. She (6 yr old girl) knows the name of the important transformers. But HMW is my to play a TF game that doesn't either suck or no one wants to play. V2 had been a rumor that was being kicked around by OS since I joined. I say kudos to OS and his friends/team that is working on V2 cause even one yes on the gestalts/bot mods/xxx/xxx/xxx question shows despite the abuse that he really cares not only about the game that he also plays but the players themselves.

A tourney sounds fun. But then again they always do. Perhaps a chance for us small group of Predacons to once again steal a victory!?

Be all you can be for your faction. Envy is no fun. Become the one that is getting admired.

I mean come on, if Burn could do it ... anyone can *wink*

Aside from the admiration for Starlock, that's pretty much how it is on every side that's not the Autobot faction.

Apparently there is something in the water. This thread seems too bizarre for me not to be on something.

Haha. It's just that you have it worse than everyone else (as a faction) yet your scores are staggering.

Actually, he has it bad, but not the worst as far as Factions go. There are twice the Maximals there are Preds. Here's the faction breakdown.

That is an illusion. Just like when I use to think over a month ago that V2 was scrapped after what probably was a misread/misinformed post.

[neliz]

thank you OS

[Psychout]

Easy come, easy go. So is this version going to be retired forever then? If so can we please have an offical send off tournament?

Psychout and the HMW staff will be in charge of all that.

This will be fun.

If anyone has any suggestions/request for the final endgame (besides M.D.K.), the Tournament Planing Forum is the place for them.
Keep 'em coming...

[Rebirth Megatron]

It's about time it was made official, I was wondering when all the guesswork would end.

But no worries...you won't be rid of me yet. I'm not going anywhere. Hopefully I'll have access to a computer of my own by them so I can sit back and kick some Autobutt full time.
