I've burnt out on Legacy a bit recently but I challenge any of you to work on the same project for over 5 years and not burn out. I've spoken to a few people and this is where I'm at right now. I'm going to try to revive Legacy, all my changes are based on player feedback and I'm done toying around with ideas in my head I'm just going to do them.

The attack system is being remade as I've said many times, it will have the option to be a 1 click attack system in the hive and will all be processed via AJAX. This is a huge task as the attack scripting is the most complicated code the game has, I'm working through it but it takes time.

All items will then be reviewed, a lot will be nerfed, some will be buffed, some may even be removed completely to try and make every item in the game useful in some way. The white shop items will be removed and handed out freely to players as they level, experience required from level 1-80 will be increased slightly to balance this change.

Spectral items are being removed and remade in to upgraded Avatar items. New hunting NPCs and items will be added, a combination of new items, crystals and credits will be required to upgrade the current Avatar items in to Spectral items. So start saving if you haven't already!

The level cap is being removed, levels beyond level 80 will not grant stat points or anything but vanity rewards. The new levels will take increasingly huge amounts of experience to traverse for those with the desire to do so.

These changes will begin today, all warfare point rewards apart from the Phase Shifter have been removed and merged in to hunting drops. The hospitals will soon begin healing exposure in exchange for warfare points and the gang shop will soon begin selling equivalent items.

This is a last attempt and if this fails, I'm done with Legacy. The game will get nothing but bug fixes and I'll be starting on a new project from scratch.
