Hot Fixes - 10.23.09. Hot like a summer's day, these fixes come down the pipeline to fix code from the cold weather of brokenness. I know I've felt the northern hemisphere change its direction towards a colder tinge, but these fixes should keep me warm!

From the From the Dev Team category we have: Producer's Letter - 1.3.2 and Beyond
Hey Everyone,

It’s been one week too long for me pulling together this letter. The team has been pounding away at making sure our upcoming 1.3.2 patch is not only full of great features and improvements, but is set up to be one of our smoothest version deployments to live yet. By now you should have had a chance to check out the 1.3.2 patch notes for our Public Test Server. If not, check them out here. I’ll still be here when you get back!

» 1.3.2 PTS Final Test Screenshots and Summary
Oct 14, 2009 - 8:08 PM - by PhoenixRed
As some of you have seen from today's Herald post, there was a final 1.3.2 patch PTS test last night. Over 250+ players showed up for this test in order to test stability, and I was among those folks who wanted to see if performance had indeed improved in WAR for this patch.

As you all know, one of the most hotbutton topics and pain points for ex-players and current players alike is the engine's ability to perform effectively in large scale ORvR situations. Over the past year some have struggled with the stability issues that WAR has gone through, and while some changes and adjustments have been made, core issues with lag and crashes remained.

Last night's test consisted of the testers on both factions facing off against one another in constant keep sieging and close quarters to stress test the... [Read More]

Heya folks, just a heads up, today is my last day as Site Manager here at Warhammer Alliance and my last day with Curse. So I'm taking off my manager hat to get all mushy, personal, and behind-the-scenes on you. Come and grab a seat.

It is hard to belive that this site was created more than four years ago. It's even more difficult for me to remember all of the amazing volunteers that this site relied upon over the years. I would personally like to thank everyone whom helped this site over the past four years. The people whom dedicated their time to the common goals of this site. I'd also like to thank all the community members whom I've grown to know over the years. What an amazing and wonderful experiance it has been.

During the sites lifetime and even today, we are still the most popular Warhammer Online forums around, but that's not the true indicator of this sites success. What I'm most proud of at this site is the high level of goodwill and useful... [Read More]
