MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release. Such issues are often addressed via mini-patches directly after a release and in subsequent patches. If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

NEVERDIE
Crime Wave Hits ROCKtropia!
A New development of Luxury Land plots in the hills overlooking the City of Dreams has sparked a planet wide crime wave on ROCKtropia as renegade VR Pioneers stoop to breaking, entering and GTA to steal ROCKbucks to acquire the new gardening ready land.
AI rebellion!
To escape the lawlessness of the main land, Vixen industries New Waterproof Android Video Vixens have fled on Wet skis to Playa Del Harlem and established a new outdoor club scene.
Clubbers are advised to bring their record collections to kick the party into high gear
Scared Stone Cold Sober!
Herbaly medicated Avatars jonezing for Monster Tires and Wetski parts were scared stone cold sober this weekend when The Bosses of “Bozos Chop Shop” and “Gas and Go Docks” reportedly upgraded their firepower after both garages were hit hard by the crime Spree.
The Scared shitless avatars who had been burglarizing the chop shops were seen to be equipped with new crafted, colored and textured California FAPs and were wielding newly discovered crafted chainsaws.
ROCKtropia Cops equipped with Firearms!
RT Cops are now armed with pistols to combat the rise in vehicle break ins, as desperate ROCKropians pillage glove boxes for ROCKbucks. Police However have failed to curb the rise in crime as thieves have been able to dodge authorities by exploiting a new monetized fast TP system currently being tested by The President of Virtual Reality introduced as part of his Billion Jobs in VR initiative.
Demand for ROCKtropia Housing continues to soar!
Despite the crime wave ROCKtropia immigration is at an all time high, to meet the demand a New Apartment Complex has been completed in Tangerine to provide upscale accommodation.
Lovers of Haters and Horny little Devils Get Lucky!
New Missions to discover!!!
Plus Fixes Galore including
- Fixed fields of Trucker Hats for coloring and texturing.
- Returned Spawns to Old Harlem
- adjusted L naming convention on BP’s
- Separated Hendrix Spawn from Turret
- Fixed Clarice Mission
- Storm Drake Mission at Champions Park

Cyrene
================================================== =========Planet Cyrene - October 2016 Update
Hello everyone,
While today we do have some bug fixes rolling out for certain issues; Hail Lazidol! mission, a fix for the Empis Wasp Queen FAP combine, as well as some more simpler ones. These will come with the Mini Patch next week.
That being said, there will be no new content added to Planet Cyrene today, October 4th 2016.
We are still focused on resolving the issues that are currently plaguing Cyrene, especially the loot drops / vendor item stocks, as well as laying down a ground work for future players to have a better starting experience and veteran players to have a multitude of complete game play options on Cyrene.
In the mean time, we will be updating the Cyrene Dynamic Upgrade Map with all the players work during this time and sharing more about what we'll be doing and what is coming up for Cyrene, not limited to but including: shops, booths, land areas, new content, and PvP.
Each will get their own forum thread and all players can post feedback about the new content before it comes out.
Thank you for your continued support of Planet Cyrene.
Regards,
Kris
