Halloween Masquerade 2006
Of course the big news this week is all about the Halloween Masquerade. The response has been great so far, and we're all happy that you're enjoying the event. There have been a few concerns, which I'll address here.
Client-Crash Issue
We're still working on a fix for the client-crash issue. Everything points to something wonky with the zombies, but we haven't nailed it yet. We're hoping to have a fix ready for testing this weekend, which would allow us to get it out towards the middle of next week.
Zombie Bite
Yes, the zombie bite works all the time. Then again, Antibiotics work all the time, as well. Want to avoid zombification? Use an Antibiotic--they beat the virus while the effect is running, as well as when you initially use one. Holy Water works 100% of the time, too.
Doing anything else would've required some balancing and, heck, wouldn't be nearly as fun as ensuring we...er...the zombies infect everyone they come across.
