Eagleworld is back.

Yes, yes, it's true. We're finally (finally (FINALLY)) back!

In lieu of celebration, here is a song from Guns N' Roses:

I have certainly worked my ass off to make the new Eagleworld as good as I could, so I hope everyone enjoys the server! Please read the entirety of this post, as it'll be important on how to get started on the new Eagleworld.  If you don't and you start asking questions, you'll just be referred right back here:

What's the new Eagleworld look like?

You might be wondering what exactly what has changed from the old Eagleworld to the new.  Well, here's all the changes in a nutshell:

Spoiler Inside: Changes to Eagleworld

The new towns of Eagleworld

Since wilderness building is heavily discouraged at this point, it behooves all members of Eagleworld to join a town.  Here is a synopsis of your options (and other potential options):

Spoiler Inside: Eagleworld Towns

What you need to know when you first log in

Since a lot has changed on Eagleworld, there will be some things you need to know the first time you log in.  Here's a quick checklist of things you should do:

  • Browse the Server Info page and familiarize yourself with the new rules/policies
  • Browse the list of towns above and figure out which one you wish to join (if you have not yet done so)
  • You may wish to look at the more detailed town applications in this blog post.
  • When you log in the first time, you need to request your rank to be restored.  This is for security purposes.
  • Upon first login, also ask for your back salary.
  • Once you have a house and chests, start transferring your items from the old map to the new one.
  • Select a structure from the old world to bring to the new one.  Electing to not bring one will give you a bonus in Talons.

What's the new features I should look out for?

Now that we have all these new fancy-schmancy plugins and stuffs, what does that mean for you?  I haven't had time to update the Help Page yet, but here's some info to get you started:

Conclusion

I hope the new Eagleworld is more enjoyable for all!  Please let me know if there are any issues with the server; I will resolve them as soon as my personal time allows.  As far as building migration, please be patient.  We will get to them as soon as possible.  Note we will be doing a lot of work rebuilding towns and the infrastructure, as well as handling server bugs, so we have to deal with building migration after all that is fixed.  Thanks for your understanding!

Now get to building!

    YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sorry, Pete. Had to let that loose. I’ve been on several other servers and found them thoroughly unenjoyable. Your place rocks! Thanks very much for all the work you do.

    • Well, thanks for the compliment! I do work hard on this place, and I want to make it as fun to play on as possible. I think it’s important to play at a place you know your stuff will be safe from griefers and from server failures :-).

      I’m sorry this took so long…thanks to everyone for their patience. Welcome back to everyone!
