How To Get There: http://animefestival.asia/afa2014/getting-to-afa/

Ok who is interested in going?

1) Connect your city to the main road using the cheapest Avenue road. Not the streets. This is to facilitate traffic into the city. Do not try to be over ambitious and lay only enough for u to develop a small city first.

2) Lay low density streets for all zones first. After they develop and can expand, when u mouse over them, they will say something like "upgrade the road to increase density". at this point in time, upgrade the low density road into medium density roads(upgrade option found under the roads tab. below the advisor).

3)Go slow and slowly build up the city. Public transport amenities are not really required for a start. what you do need is police station, fire station and clinic. get those up ASAP.

4)City hall(government buildings) raises the land value around it so putting it near your residential and commerce areas will help them develop faster.

5)Sewage outflow pipes will cause heavy pollution so put them far away from the residential and commerce area, most likely together with your power plants and industrial area. Same goes for garbage.

6)Do not start to panic when your budget goes into the red. Sometimes, when your revenue is just barely making money and a residential building or commercial building or industry building upgrades it self, u will not get the money from it(makes sense?) if your capital can last til it rebuilds, most probably your will see your revenue increase to even higher than before.

7)Clear abandoned buildings to ensure they rebuild fast(that's what i do) much as abandoned buildings get repopulated later when u solve the problems for y they abandoned it in the first place, i find that rebuilding is faster cos sometimes we take quite a while to solve the problems of the city.

ok for thats it for now will update when i find out more.

Gonna post this not in my capacity as part of the guild council but as a normal member.

THIS IS NOT A DECLARATION BY THE GUILD

I might not have joined the guild in AoW til now due to my life commitments but i still keep a close watch on the forums.

About this incident, FIRST i should say that both sides are at fault.

I wan to highlight the point of our guild not pking on purpose. As such, the apologise by our member to I.N.K is splendid. I applaud. However, even if we do not pk on purpose, we should not be afraid of others who wants to declare war on us.

Yes the single pk incident did escalate into a mass guild pk. But I.N.K did not communicate with us first about the incident to solve it properly. As such, personally i do not feel that it is fair nor correct that our guild has to publicly apologise. We also did not initiate the server wide declaration on KOS of I.N.K's members.

To end, if any such incidents(snatching of farm spots or mass PKing due to a small and almost insignificant incident) happen again, please try to talk to the other person first to let them noe that you were actually using it.

To emphasize, WE as EINSOF DO NOT PK others purposely. But this does NOT mean we are afraid of others declaring war on us. Also, to all guild council members, Einzo stepped down as he does not have much time to commit to the game so do not use this incident's punishment as a rule to future incidents with other officers. It is not a neccessity that one step down due to one incident. We all learn from mistakes however grave it may be.

You may or may not agree with me on this. As topic says its just my thoughts.

Now... I notice a lot of people have been repeatedly asking the same stuff so now I'll clarify them

--------------------------------------------

1. There's no news about season 2 yet, like we've already said tons of times. When (if) S2 is announced we'll post the news + link on the page, so (please) stop asking about this.
And also, please refrain from spreading false rumors about season 2 without a reliable source. What I mean is, even if you hear about season 2, ask that person for the source first instead of getting all excited and immediately start spreading it around. Just saying, but I'd rather that people continue waiting for news about season 2, rather than getting all happy from a fake S2 rumor and then later on finding out that there's actually no S2

2. We have no idea what Kirito said at the end of the last ep
True, it might be a teaser to season 2, but it can also be a form of audience-input. Meaning, the audience can guess for themselves what Kirito might have said

3. Suguha's official (yes, OFFICIAL) ALO character name is Leafa, not Lyfa. Stop making arguments about her name

That's all, sorry for the lengthy post

To all, if you are having problems installing or running the game, please try to run them as administrator first to see if it helps.

Title: The War Z
Website: http://thewarz.com
Purchase Link: https://account.thewarz.com/preorder/preorder.html
Price: US $24.99 to $39.99

For the $24.99 pack, you start accessing the game in beta only after OCT 31. The other pack, you can start playing after OCT 15. Which technically, means immediately.

Background
A game set in the post zombie apocalypse and survivors(you and others) trying to survive. You create a character to and join a server and for that survivor, the longest time that u stay alive is recorded. The number of zombies you kill and the number of neutrals you kill is also recorded.

Gameplay
After you start a game, you reach the survivor selection screen where you can create your survivor. After creating your survivor, you can join a server to start exploring the map.

You start with a torchlight and some minor supplies and is spawned anywhere on the server. Fret not however as after you start playing on the server, when you leave, your position is saved and if you join back any server hosting the same map, you are spawned at the place you leave.

After you die in a server, you get sent back to the survivor selection screen where you have to wait a countdown before that survivor is revived.

Initial Weapons
Played left 4 dead or left 4 dead 2? like how the game starts you with guns and you can start blazing off into the zombie hordes? Sorry to be a bummer as this game starts you off without any decent weapons except for a torchlight which you can use to "alert" the zombies you are near them. And by decent i mean any weapon that can actually kill the zombies and Torchlights most definitely do not cut it.

Some Tips
The top right of the ui shows 2 bars, the one at the top indicates the level of you being seen and increases with any movement. The more intense the movement, the higher the level. The bar at the bottom indicates the amount of sound you are making.

At the bottom left of the ui is where the character silhouette, hunger bar and thirst bar can be found. The character silhouette is filled with red and represents the amount of health you have. The lesser the red, the lower your health. The hunger bar is to the left of the character silhouette while the thirst bar can be located at the right. Both bars decrease with time and can be refill be eating food and drinking water.

Pressing shift allows you to run at the expense of stamina. The stamina bar can be found appearing only after some stamina has been expended and will be found circling the character silhouette,hunger bar and thirst bar at the bottom left of the ui.

Running increases the amount of sound you make. Walking makes lesser and crouching even lesser. Pressing Z will make your character prone. Backspace will empty your hands in case you activated the torchlight and is emiting light like a lighthouse.

Do remember that you are living in a post zombie apocalypse world, where human moral values mean nothing and killing another survivor grants you the posession rights to whatever he/she is carrying. As such, be very careful in wherever you thread and do not trust others so easily. *p.s* i was walking around after finding a town and suddenly i was sniped dead, without even knowing where the guy shot me from.

Since torchlight 2 supports up to 6 players per game, we should add more frens to play together!

Post your runic game account name in here to let others add you to play together in the world of torchlight 2!
