The week after

Here we are now, roughly a week after the big release. We are very pleased to say the feedback on the big update has been generally very positive. The staff worked very hard on it so we are happy to see our work has paid off.

But (as expected) there are still quite a few bugs and glitches. Most have to do with the servers being completely overloaded, and some are errors in the engine. We are currently working very hard to fix all of these issues, so keep the feedback coming!

First item on the list is making some final adjustments to the engine. We are almost done, so hopefully we will be able to tackle most of the engine related bugs next week.

We are also in the process of acquiring new servers again (we hoped the previous server upgrade would have been enough for now, but obviously it wasn't). This should address the major loss bugs, and make the game run a lot faster.

The moment the new servers arrive, we will release the new set of shippuuden characters. (Since releasing new characters on the current severs would mean a crash, we won’t be able to release anything before that time.)

We are also working on some extra features like a lite version of the flash and custom in-game backgrounds! (I know, I know, you have been waiting far too long for this… but it finally coming!)

As for a release date, well… I really shouldn’t say anything (thinking about the uproar it caused last time…), but we will gradually be making the updates along the upcoming two to three weeks.

Discuss the post or ask questions at the forums here.

Lastly, on behalf of the entire Naruto-Arena Staff I would like to thank all of you loyal players for sticking with us all this time, and we all hope to see everyone on the site for a long time to come. Without you we would never have made it this far!

And now it’s back to work again for us!
