With all the changes in the update today, we ran into an unexpected problem. Today’s VU met with a bug that didn’t turn up in our QA pre-release. A number of players became trapped in Ancient Greece’s Underworld when they died in game. We (developers and myself) have been looking at this issue since we learned of it late this morning. In the longer term we will be addressing a code issue with this but in the short term we are working to resolve this issue for you in the following ways: 1) Any player trapped in the Underworld will be moved by support back to Thebes. If you are experiencing an issue this way please file a ticket with Entropia support and it will be addressed. I will confirm as soon as I learn this is the case, but it won’t occur until tomorrow at the earliest. 2) All of the Underworld teleporters will be set with Thebes visible as the destination to all players, and that should resolve any player being trapped in this environment. We are working to push this out as quickly as possible and I will confirm as soon as this is done. 3) We are already at work on a patch dealing with several issues we want to tweak in this release, and this will be addressed with what will hopefully be a long-term solution in this patch. As soon as I have the final date on that, we will share that with you. Thank all of you for playing the new content and offering thoughts on it. All of us want players to have a fun and engaging experience on Next Island and we are working as quickly as possible to resolve this issue.
