The best thing about game development is there’s never a dull moment. As announced on the forums this morning, we had a development database problem over the weekend causing us headaches. While we’ve gotten that resolved, it’s put us behind in finishing up the work for the in-game concerts.

Given that and some other technical issues we’ve been battling with, we’re going to push the in-game concerts back by one week. The new dates for the Battle of the Bands/Piece of Blue Sky: Reloaded concerts will be Tuesday, May 9 through Monday, May 15, 2006.

La SOE nous annonce le report du patch prévu pour aujourd'hui, qui devait emmener entre autre le Concert Piece of Blue Sky.

Les nouvelles date du « Battle of the Bands/Piece of Blue Sky: Reloaded » : du Mardi 9 Mai au Lundi 15 Mai.

Upcoming Free Trial

The FilePlanet free trial is scheduled to begin the afternoon of Tuesday, May 2, 2006. As announced, free trial players will get a copy of Hyper-Jump Beta when they activate and a copy of Mobius Code when they convert to a paying account.

I’ve seen some comments from veteran players about how we’re making these Abilities less special by adding them to a free trial. Why would we choose to use those Abilities instead of new ones?

The answer is simple: Both Abilities are highly useful at early levels. It’s a great incentive for new players to stick around and really get to know The Matrix Online. However, free trial players will only get one copy of each Ability—not one on each character. We want them to get in and enjoy the game, but we also don’t want to make the vets feel their earned rewards aren’t valuable.

(HRP : Bon, juste pour un peu de contexte, c'est offrir une "ability" plus puissante que tout ce qui viendra après d'entrée de jeu. En plus, les joueurs ayant pas fait la beta mais acheté le jeu entre-deux ne l'ont généralement pas.

Ca c'est du bon gros management SOE qui fait plaisir aux anciens :P)
