4th year behind us
New Year and with it comes a speech and a reminder of the past year. Greetings to all who have the time and desire to read this article. Let’s start with the events of last year, and what he brought with him. (I’ll put the corrections under this news later).
Last year was characterized primarily by large latency on our server. The server could not cope with the onslaught of new players and was constantly growing. So we have a new collection for a new machine Na your machine, on which we run without problems to this day and perhaps the following year. We opened and launched a lot of new things such as a new TeamSpeak 3 server, instance Naxxramas, we have deployed new patches up to version 3.3.5a , we fixed thousands of bugs, Vault of Archavon instance, new arena of the season, Onyxia’s Lair instance, we put into operation transfers between factions, career and race changes, regular instance resets and distribution of arena points, we put into operation a new Armory with 3 D models, Obsidian Sanctum instance, Battleground Strand of the Ancient, we have modified a completely new map structure for dismounts in buildings and fishing in capitals, we have released many new versions Drahy program, we switched to new versions of our Linux system, we launched Wintergrasp, an instance of Forge of Souls, we deployed a completely new purge system, which now takes only tens of minutes and many repairs of spells, quests and more in The whole game world. However, despite all the repairs and dedication to the server, 2010 was very rushed and I did not manage to do a lot of things that I planned. However, I am optimistic and I believe that we will do just as well, if not better, in the coming year.
What did we miss? So, first of all, I wanted to open multiple instances that so far have bugs that cause easy completion, very hard completion, or even no instance completion at all. However, we are not in a hurry and once everything is ready and it is really no longer in our power to repair the instances, we will open them. However, it takes time and needlessly do not rush some things, when one system necessary to one of the bosses can take several weeks. We have already missed the server’s fourth birthday, New Year’s wishes, the official server meeting and many other traditional things. There was no time and we had a lot this year. However, the players will forgive us and they know well that we are also people with personal lives and duties even outside this server.
Last year we were also struck by a tragic event. One of the first members of our GM team, who never wanted anything for help, a person who did not need to give rights and a GM sign to help others, succumbed to cancer. Jan Růžička, known in our country as “Golem” was a huge benefit of the server not only in its darker times and constant falls, but also outside it. He gave aid to others without distinction of faction or gender. He was at the birth of the previous forum, which he managed every day and was also at the foundation of one of the largest and most famous alliance guilds in our country založené the original Crusaders of Brumla founded once after the creation of the server. He created the history of this server until his death on 12.5.2010, although he was no longer physically present, yet he also belongs to this novelty, in which we remember the events of last year. Golem is in our hearts and I believe that he went where he is definitely better and every year we will remember him zaslouží he deserves it.
In the following year, we plan a lot of new things, whether it's opening Trial of the Crusader, IceCrown Citadel, Isle of Conquest, Dalaran Arena, reopening the Strand of the Ancient, deploying Cataclysm, opening heroic instances, repairing spells, quests and of course deploying thousands of patches throughout the year that will only make our server more functional. We are not subject to constant pessimism, constantly complaining about everything players, those who do not want to read and ignore the rules and we continue to rush towards new adventures and pitfalls that await us in the new year, so I have only one thing left z Happy New Year and as many hours /played!
