On The Pulse

You may have noticed recently that the NEVERDIE.com forums were a little out of sync. Okay, so they were broken, but we are proud to announce that they are back and better than ever!

NEVERDIE.com has been transformed and has a whole new look. Gone are the days of logging in over and over again (we hope). So make a point to check out all the news, updates, and latest and greatest on our newly renovated forums.

You can also connect your Facebook account to your forum account using FaceBook Connect (button at the top of any page).

As always, please be sure to let any of the forum staff know if you encounter any problems with the new layout.

Check out this week’s Edition of Tipsy Thursdays with EZ!!! You’ll find more detailed information on how creatures attack, how defensive skills work, and about some of the common mid-level armors. You won’t wanna miss the great information here

It’s mating season on ROCKtropia, or so it would appear. More than 200 new maturities of various types of wildlife have been spotted after this latest update. All manner of new varieties and maturities of mobs have appeared in new places, and disappeared from old habitats. Rumors are flying about new items dropping, but only time will tell how many will be found. Some new land areas have been identified, and some existing land area properties have been modified to allow events to be created. There is much discovering yet to do, and the intrepid ROCKtropians are just the sort to get to the bottom of all this new content. As you explore, feel free to mention anything out of the ordinary here

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have lift-off!!! ROCKtropians were ecstatic today to discover that a whole host of new vehicles have arrived. Boats, hovercraft and a flying transport vehicle were all discovered after the latest update. City of Dreams inhabitants were amazed this morning by the huge flying transport that NEVERDIE was test flying around the city square.

Another new feature is a gravity/physics adjustment to vehicles and to avatars themselves, as crashing and falling into things will result in damage absorbed. Better be careful and watch them roads when driving or FLYING!!!

A voice chat feature has been added to your friends list section. Now you can not only write a private message to your friends and society mates, you can call them within the user interface and not have to use a third party chat program.

Lastly, you can now connect your avatar to your Facebook page, and post your globals, achievements and level increases for your friends to see. To set this up you need to login to your account here and choose Interconnect Services from the My Account menu. You can then set up your preferences and connect/disconnect your avatar to your Facebook and Twitter.

There have already been several new item discoveries today, and the community is excitedly exploring and testing to find out what else may still be hiding in a mob or in the ground. Check back soon for the latest news as discoveries are made and history is written.

In addition to the much improved layout of the forum, the recent update also adds many fun, new features including achievements. We’ve started adding new achievements, including the latest, Party Animal, which requires 150 friends on your list in the forum. We’ll be adding many new exciting achievements and may even have a contest with prizes for them. Since the NEVERDIE staff is always happy to hear from our ROCKtropia community, the comments section has been left open so that you can add your achievement ideas for future development.

Major shifts in the quantum energy surrounding the planet ROCKtropia detected!!! Wild reports coming from all sectors of the Entropia Universe!!! ROCKtropia is experiencing a major shift in planetary population in the last day or so, as a wide variety of new creatures, land areas and hunting grounds opened up. Intrepid explorers are finding Zomhattan crawling with new zombies, wolves and various varieties of clones, androids and cyber-girls. New wolves have been spotted out in the wilds near Vampire Freaks cathedral, and several other places. The streets are no longer safe for the casual visitor, colonists are strongly advised to keep a sharp eye out, and a gun with you at all times.

An oil rig has been reported in the Motorhead Beer Gardens, though it is not yet operational. We expect a full investigation to follow shortly, so stay tuned for more information. Additionally, the bridge to the Tangerine land area has mysteriously reappeared, no doubt the thieves had a difficult time, and decided to simply return it. The search continues, but the good news is that the bridge is back, and once again, you can reach Tangerine via automobile.

While it is fairly early to know if more items are going to be appearing, creator and founder of ROCKtropia, NEVERDIE was quoted today in the City of Dreams as saying, “Blueprints are our highest priority for ROCKtropia.”

Another exciting development that many people have noticed is that there are shops and stalls in both the City of Dreams, and the Tangerine land areas that now have Estate Terminals. The building and construction inspectors are completing their procedures, and have reported that the shops will soon become available to the public. Keep listening to CNDLive, and watching the forum for announcements about becoming a real estate owner on ROCKtropia.

Now, its time to get out there and PARTY like we just don’t care!!!

Rumor has it that Neverdie’s private stash of weapon designs and descriptions of new resources were reported stolen in a confidential memo on Monday. Though no specific details were released, for obvious reasons, speculation is that new resources may have found their way to ROCKtropia. New, secret weapon designs may also have been taken, according to our inside source, who insisted on anonymity, for fear of repercussions. “I heard that many different weapon system designs my have found their way into the hands of these thieves,” claimed the fearful insider. “It could even be in the double digits!” Our secret source tells us, “The economy of ROCKtropia may never be the same, once these weapons hit the market. I mean, if people got a hold of these weapons, who knows if the native species of dragons, wolves and other creatures on the planet would survive?” More information may be released soon, or perhaps world-renowned gamer Neverdie may try to keep this story under wraps, stay tuned for more information…

Did you feel the lag? You may have noticed a slight delay while logging in on June 30th and were more than likely prompted to wait for an update to download a patch to your system but trust us, it was totally worth it.

Here are the specs to the latest update:
- A brand-spanking-new look to the skyscrapers in and around City of Dreams.
- Two – count ‘em TWO – brand new cities ready to explore!
- Our favorite Video Vixens look sexier than ever and even the Auctioneer is sporting new threads.
- Zombies around Zomhattan have had a bit of a sprucing up.
- PvP has returned to Zomhattan, make sure before you enter you take a Toxic shot (located in the Trade Terminals). Don’t forget if you are killed by another player in this zone all your stackable items can be looted.

There is even new loot to boot! Get out there and see what you can nab off of your fallen enemies. Plus you never know what else you might find…
