276mb seems a little low for a big change, while its mostly under the hood changes i would predict bigger, maybe its Loot 1.5
 
Fingers crossed this one will be a real change :p:laugh:

Well, I expect most loot changes to be server, not client side, so I don't think that you're right.

The only client side change I expect is the display of the new eco-rating on all weapons.

hope i am, but depending on where things are stored and accessed it could require alot of small tweaks to files and even if you alter 1 line of text the updater needs to redownload the whole file. plus there is the armor changes to add and probably ring decay (notice more uber rings are for sale suddenly? <tin foil hat on.>)

i suspect this might be an update to work get systems in place and then later in the week or next tuesday the database and loot go live

I'd love if these update announcements were a little more specific about what is getting updated -- even post-release, it's often guess work to figure out what planets if any received content updates. Simply adding that updates are expected for certain planets would be fantastic.

In the meantime, at least Hypnotik does a great job gathering release notes together in one post to rule all release note posts.

They cant be specific prerelease for obvious reasons.

I'm almost the furthest thing from a game designer, but this isn't new content, like guns, teleporters, etc. Would it not be mostly code, which is much smaller in file size? Someone else mentioned it having a server-side aspect, which is also possible.

Either way, 15.15 does suggest a somewhat major release.

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.

remember, cry is free
 
Pretty sure they mentioned that 2.0 would be implemented one piece at a time so they could evaluate reaction/feedback. So don't expect crazy changes all at once.
 
I just hope depo > shoot > greenlines> loot/swirls still works.

Correct me if I'm wrong but livesupport official avatars have no direct knowledge about the inner workings of scheduled VUs ?

I bet they at least read PCF unlike some ppl here (who create threads asking ridiculous questions instead search forum or even outside and getting loads of detailed answers).
 
Developer Notes #11 - Loot 2.0

Later this month, MindArk will be releasing a special Loot 2.0 Version Update that will overhaul the way in which hunting loot is calculated and distributed. Many of the features and systems added over the past few years have gradually led to this update, which will significantly improve overall loot returns for the vast majority (upwards of 98%) of participants.

The information in this Developer Notes article is intended to inform participants of the upcoming changes and to gather initial impressions and feedback to help ensure a smooth implementation of this exciting update. Please bear in mind that the changes described below are still being finalized and tested, so some specific details may be changed upon release, while other changes may require additional refinement or testing and therefore may not appear in the initial Loot 2.0 release, but instead in subsequent patches or Version Updates.
 
Lootius2.0 bless us all.
 
I hope plain briefs will come back to loot!
I havent changed underwear in approx 10 years.


Loot 2.0 ! Lets hope for the Best update since the town of Sundsvall was on fire!
 
All EU knowledge erased :yay:
