It seems the introduction of this new update has, as always, generated quite a stir. People are upset about the hardware changes they may need to make and about the cost of equipping and unequipping armour/clothing.
Personally I haven't had a proper look into all the new changes myself yet. I am still able to login. I don't seem to have a problem with any of the gfx so I guess my machine is ok and my gfx card must have shader 3.0 or whatever is needed. This is good to know as I bought it brand spanking new in the past 10months or so.
I have gone through the process of remodelling my avatar only to find I cannot equip my oj's without repairing them. Now on principal I refuse to do this and henceforth will roam the landscapes of entropia naked bar a pair of white boxer shorts. I just cannot bring myself to spend money on virtual clothing. As bizarre as it may sound. After all, I begrudge spending money on real life clothing so why buy virtual ones?
The 2 pec decay cost has only surprised me in 1 way. It has surprised me it's taken so long to have something like this implemented. After all real life clothes degrade over time through wear and usage. Therefore so should virtual ones. Yes it is a cunning way for MA to make even more peds but it does also add a sense of realism.
Going back to the whole reason for this blog existing my quest to turn 100 sweat through a series of trades into a hangar may have hit a small term stumbling block. The new update may have caused the costs of full makeovers to increase. If this is the case then sorg and I may have to renegotiate the current trade deal. I may even end up taking a backward step and offering the ambu jacket for trade again (which I must admit looks quite nice after this new vu).
However, this would be a last resort and hopefully it shouldn't come to that.
