For those of you who havn\'t seen it, news today :)
First:
You can find on the races pages in the Rules section, the starting points that will be used in CB release for each race. All races are balanced to have the same total amount of points, trying to provide as much variery as possible. You will surely find one that fits your game style or your preferred character.
And more importantly:
The Molecular Blue server has been shutdown today and will never be up again. We wave a respectfull goodbye to him, since it gave us many great emotions. A new phase is starting and the new release is quite close. The new release will give us even more fun, so don\'t be sad!!
In the next days we will post the link to the migration web pages. With those you will be able to migrate your character name and his possessions in the database of the new release (Crystal Blue). The items and crystals will be converted to trias (our in game currency) at a rate that\'s still to define. The migration process will last about 5 days, then you will no more be able to migrate old chars, so try to be here in the next days, or delegate to a friend or parent (he will need your ps account, ps account password and be able to access your email).
After the migration is done, will will make few more tests, and then we will finally release. We don\'t know yet how much time will take for those final tests.
*Salutes MB as he uninstalls it*
:)
Onward to CB!! :D
Edit: lol, beaten to it :P
-
Lol i beat you to it but now your post is above mine, bugger....
-
Lol, yeah :D
Anyway, I was on the cb server when the mb server was shutdown if that counts for anything :P
-
Obviously being online when the server shut down means your a part of planeshift history.
I wish i did a print screen on the /who i did like 5 min before the server did go offline, would have been a nice souvenir..
-
Well there was two servers at the time, I was just on the new one :D
And I\'m already part of planeshift history :P
-
WOW! Finally! I cant wait dudes! Lets chat this out. lets like chat till cb is here
-
I was there as it kindly told us we were being booted for the last time! The first ever Server Admin messenger I read!
Server shutdown immenent!
Pleas save Char details by exiting!
lol then it booted!
-
When the guy came online and said it was rebooting i was like wtf? Does this happen every night at this time? And i was left sratching my head for 30min till the news post came up...
-
I was just downloading the MB for the first time, and it tells me it cannot be downloaded :P. I want to play the game already!!! And now who knows how long i have to wait until i can finaly start >.< . The holidays are way too short to afford waiting, but i guess its cool to start off together with the new version!
-
Two servers Xordan? Does that mean you are testing, or that there were two MB servers one public and one the secret trove of those who do not want to be on the other one for whatever reason? ;-)
And me I had just joined when it shut down, talk about a surprise. Though the only reason I was off was because it the server had been droping me all day, must have been forewarnings.
-
I\'m testing :) Notice that I have no rank image. All testers have no rank image.
-
OK thanks.
*Kwip scratches out the \'Secret PS MB Server\' hypothesis #25481 from his conspiracy notebook*
-
*looks at his watch* 5 days and I will be gone on holidays, dang! Well guess I will have alot of catching up to do.
h00ray for advancements
-
Depth! You got to test! Im glad man. Anyways, I deleted PS :( Wow. This is akward after having it on here for over a year @.@;. Anyways good luck on cb. Can\'t wait :D
-
yeah ill be gone for holidays too... too bad... i wanted to be one of the first non-testers :(
cant i say i will mis MB too much... never played it that much really.. since I cant seem to login to my old char that has a bumload of crystals :(
-
CB!
well i guess the trademark soon was right then, some people been waiting a long time for it. Ive been here 3 months or so and get it for x-mas.
Smashing! :)
-
This is awesome! Finally, CB is drawing nigh! One question though, How many servers will be hosting the CB download? I hope more than one, or it will take a long time for everyone to download. Eeep! WOOT! YAHOO! GOOGLE! ASK JEEVES! YES!
-
Its going to be long night for the server if theres only 1!!
lmao:)

Well duh, the server is shutdown
-
I was on about when CB is put out to download! :)
-
I was reaching for that one last emerald crystal tucked in a corner where no one had found it yet... aarrggg... it won\'t let me click... dang the lag is bad... hm... I\'ve been disconnected... Please wait while server connects.... Server is down and not coming back up!! lol... please see forums for further updates... YAY!!!! CB is on it\'s way!!!
-
how do i convert my mug into crystals now that the server at fragnetics is down? will i even need to to get my trias? geez, i just got the mug yesterday! the last day the server is up, i get my first item! lol
-
Maybe you can still sell it on the merchant site... maybe.
-
Merchant site will work until database delete akaik.
-
ah, ok.
Q: Is there an advantage in selling/buying items for the transfer?
another question: what is going to happen to the MB guilds? are they going to be transfered?
-
If you have a certain amount of crystals you\'ll recieve a small item :) So yes, convert away if you can.
-
Ahh this feals good... and to think last new year i was bouncing up and down my seat hoping that CB would be out... when I realized it wasnt so, my heart sunk but finally its here... we actually have testers in game already, migration procress will start any day now... this feels :).... Good
(now mabey i will log on to CB allot more, psst i was never on MB for long... i\'d log on for a few days then log out and wont show up for a few months then i\'d start all over)
Well guys its finally here...
-

Merry X-mas To The Devs, The Testers And The Community!
All the friends i\'ve made in good old MB, the most advanced chat program ever made
hhmmm... now what am i going to do for the next 5 days...
-
Levski bows to the Molecular Blue Server salutes it goodbye.
To me this isn\'t just a game anymore, in many ways..
-
*Just remembering that he only has a 56k modem and will not be able to download it at school because of winter break, Kwip breaks down into tears*
My happiest day but also the day where I have found so many worries:
What will I miss if I am not on 24 hours a day?
What will I do with me able to do almost everything?
Will there be enough time for people to sit down and talk over a fire?
Will I be able to reach friends across a land many times bigger than the current?
But no I must face it! *Kwip steps away from the comfort of the familiar, simple, small, and slow MB into the path of the unknown, complex, large, and madingly fast CB*
-
And to think I was going to re-emerge MB.
I\'m pretty sure it\'ll take me four hours some to download, compile and hassle my dad into opening the \"Planeshift Port\"
-
I actually just registered a few days ago, really liked mb, but now I will finaly be able to kill things! *sharpens sword*
-
.......*sniff* goodbye fair server! *salutes MB* 5 days....*wipes a tear* this sucks...i hope u all read this! im gonna be dremorian hehehe
-
\"We don\'t know yet how much time will take for those final tests.\"
you guys seem to think we are going to be able to play in 5 days... i dont think so, i\'d give it about 9 days before we can get on.. but if its sooner... the better!!!
-
Dream Wrecker...
Im going to be a Lemur..... ..... ... .....
mm.... I might be in a elf Costume for a while.... :\\
-
I have to remember to come online to migrate...
CB still has Menkis, that makes me happy.
-
HAHAHA all you guys on the other side of the world(ie.America) in school only have a few weeks at most of hols :O
Here in Australia we have 7 :D Hooray for summer hols!!! And dont forget CB 8)
-
Schools out for summer!!!, hehehe. that big room with the ceiling that is sometimes blue and sometimes black with little lights does get anoying eh?? I love australia..
-

-
*sniff* good bye floating barrels, ill miss you guys :( what will i do with the non-magical ordinary gravity obeying barrels im mb ? *sigh* at least i still got The grav gun form HL2.
how can u love australia...
i live there 24-7 and there is nothing special bout it
Well you got laxed drug laws, a goverment bent on takeing over south east asian waters before the terroists do, strange mammals with built in pouches, you have a whole Continent to mess with unlike europe or asia which has many different countrys on the same piece of land mass, nice beaches, and stuff i can\'t think of or won\'t say.....
Thing is theres alot of things to like about where you live, you just ain\'t thinking about the right things to like. :D
-
Heh.... you make the truth sound so...... We\'re only taking over New Zeland :D
Auz Rock :)
You forgot about Selling our soul to america with a free trade deal... aahh..... ... .. .. .
-
We\'re only taking over New Zeland
Suprisingly I wouldnt mind this happening. Although taking over New Zealand may be a slight liability lol.
-
Taking over new zealand, thats a stupid idea... as if we\'d want it? :P
Haha well im on school holidays permantly now- just finished my HSC, so ive got 4 MONTHS of holidays. yay for australia!
-
Heres the question; Who wouldnt want to take over NZ.. its awsome as =P
Cya mb.. good times..ah...good times
-
Id rather just live there! If ya take something like that you gotta run it, and I\'d prefer just to have the rest of my life on holiday, oh wait! Im not working anymore so I do!
Cya MB! nice knowing ya, when you werent bootin me that is!
-
Well it\'s extremely sad to see it go. Can\'t wait till CB though.
-
When we had MB we were always waiting for CB, and now that it\'s gone... I miss MB...
I hope in CB we can have those long chats in the temple that we had in MB, to remember old times.
*Sells all his stuff*
Well, 1st thing I\'ll do in CB will be... er... dieing (I think, if ther\'s no penalty in it)
-

There is
-
Would have liked one more goodbye at MB if I knew it would be the last time but the last place Mordaan was was on his rooftop perch. I can\'t think of a more appropriate place to go out. ;)
*sniff*
-
I had just picked an Emerald up and was on my way back to the temple when I got the message to exit! My last action in the game. lol!
It was time for the server to be nice to me I think! Either that or it was stocking us up for the exchange!

And what would that be? Give us somemore to discuss as we await the CB release!
DeNap, bows deeply towards the sunsetting MB and glances, with heartfelt excitement to the rise of CB!
-
From the FAQ at the mainpage (which also is in this forum a couple of hundreds of times)
I died and lost all my stuff, can I have it back?
After dying your char will travel in the Death Realm, and if you can get out of there you will have your items and money back.
-
*Uninstalls MB* Goodbye old friend.
*Wonders when CB will be out* I think it will be out before the 22nd, because thats when i go to my grandmas for Christmas.
also downloading CB... 10% 25% 60% 99% ... corrupted file arrrrrggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was on about when CB is put out to download!
*Wonders why people keep saying they downloaded CB* If it is out already where can i get it?
-
Bleh...MB is gone.....My friend for over a year, gone...just like that....no warning....no nothing.....
Okay....what I am really sad about is the fact I have about 100 diamonds in two different banks and didn\'t get the chance to send those over to my main char.....woe is me...
On a happier note CB is coming...Menki all the way....
...
...
But wait....nice timing....Christmas break means no school....it also means party after party after party...and work....and christmas....and.....bah.....I am leaving my friends for CB!
-
But then we can steal all the hobbits!
Just beacause Sauron failed...pphh
*sniff* i never did get *sniff* to the top *sniff* of the temple tower *sniff* :(
-
god u guys have gone totaly off topic. on another note what do u think the transfer rate for the crystals will be do you think it will be like 1 ruby is 1 tria or the devs might think that is to much cos some people have like 200 diamonds so that is like 20000 tria. i think that it would be better to have the transfer rate being every 10 rubys is 1 tria it would be better that way and there would be no big advantages.

The rate will be VERY small. If you even get anything, it\'ll probably be enough to buy a cookie in the local bakery.

I heard a rumour that we all get a signed rock 8o
:P
-
So it has been done, I bid you farewell, Molecular Blue, may your departure be peaceful, and may it be as you have foretold aeons ago, that after you there shall be another, another worthy to take your place. We shall wait, we shall watch, and we shall listen, and when the time will come we shall greet one that is knows as Crystal Blue, the third creation of Talad and Laanx.
Evil watch your back for Chaotic Warriors shall rise again...
-
o great i join and server goes down :P
wow i am unloved :P
-
*Kwip looks warily at Syzerian, how does he know what Kwip has been doing since he got droped as the server shut down*
I believe that they had other things to transfer other than just the characters, they also might need to test the process. I do not know because I am not dev and will not question the devs because they are the ones that hold CB right now.
*Kwip images the devs holding CB out of reach from him if he misbehaves*
Devs are the greatest! They are my heros! I want to be a dev when I grow up! (or when I just finish learning some more programming language) Three cheers for the devs in earnest though, without them we would not have a CB to be going mad over! :D
-
when MB left i was... downloading it =D
-
Haha just my luck, I find this great MMORPG just as the servers have gone down, oh well, I guess I have something to look forward to after Christmas :P
-
\"Haha just my luck, I find this great MMORPG just as the servers have gone down, oh well, I guess I have something to look forward to after Christmas \"
well it is your luck, the new version will be alot better and alot more complete, with a broader range of things to do rather than hunting crystals. Not that that wasnt fun :P
-
devil and me share the pain :P
