    Something flew past in my RSS reader about Calypso Land Deeds recently, so I thought I'd check out what's going on in EU (or should I say PC now?). After stumbling around with the new post-VU10 controls and looking around some completely different looking places (what happened to Port Atlantis??) I thought I'd check to see how long it had been since I last played properly. Summer 2008! That's over 3 years ago! Wow.

    It wasn't quite as long as that in reality. I've had the occasional warning email from MA about keeping my account active, so I have peered in a few times, but I never left the safety of Sakura's trade center. But it doesn't stop me feeling like a n00b all over again. Whilst there's quite a lot of familiar stuff, there's also lots of new places and things to do, and I don't know where to start!

    Does anyone know of any good guides where I can catch up on what's changed since VU10? Or maybe you've got some tips for things I should go and check out?

    And finally, back to where I started, what are these Calypso Land Deeds all about? Has anyone bought one?

    Erach.

    P.S. What's with the purple forum? Is it a sign this place isn't as active as it used to be?

    Welcome back Erach :) I can understand why you feel like a noob again, lots has changed. I would suggest you go to PA and find some of the mission brokers then accept and do some of the missions there. It's a good way to get into things :). If you want to go for a bit of a tour we can meet in game?

    The land deeds are interesting, and pretty well described in the Planet Calypso release. I did get some, looking at the optimistic side of things, they should provided a moderate income that can be used to subsidise my game playing. Once payments start to be made and if they are significant I will probbaly get some more. There are a lot of ifs with them at the moment as the method of specifying what land you have etc. has not been specified, could be interesting!

    Gratz Erach that you're back in EU and back in EU-C! :) Since Summer 2008 there's been quite a lot of changes in-game... PA has changed twice, cryengine 2.0 was introduced and there's now three other planets; Rocktropia, Next Island and Planet Arkadia - and a vehicle system is at large. This includes road vehicles, water craft and aircraft and spacecraft. The last two enables you to get into space which atm is the only way of getting from one planet to another, or even from say Calypso to the asteroid or crystal palace. Calypso had also been redesigned, and there's now a mixture of quests and missions as well as the usual open play route for skilling, etc.
    EU-C has also undergone some changes, hence the purple skin which was sort of a test for other forum colour schemes. All of these skins/schemes are available through the quick style launcher... On the guides question, there's a new TP atlas/map of PC in the guides section, and more will be added there in the future...:D

    Hey Erach good to see you back!
    You might have missed but I've passed the admin of EuC over to the new collective mind of Nexus, Anna and Chela. They've been experimenting with a better colour scheme but I don't think they've settled yet on a final look. We're all still experimenting with the new features.
    if you do learn all the stuff over again, please consider writing us some guides - they're mostly all out of date :(
