Surprise Launch of Wartune Patch 9.0

Posted by COSMOS on Aug 8, 2019 in News, Events & Patches

Hey Everyone! We have a surprise launch of a patch for Wartune, Patch 9.0. This is both good news and bad news:

Good news because: we have a new patch, with new things and hopefully some improvements
Bad news because: it shows signs of dis-functional companies. Even Wartune publishers did not know about the patch and posted on same day that today we will have the patch. So perhaps 7Road has pushed for faster patch release to get more cash, which is not a good sign.
- Also more stuff added = more lag (nothing removed, just added)
- And no actions were taking to fix lag

Anyways…

Wartune Patch 9.0 Timing

Expected to be installed on launch servers only today (Thursday, the 8th of August) during maintenance.
Normal servers are expected to have it 1 week later, so probably next Thursday, the 15th of August.

Wartune Patch 9.0 Content

The Patch 9.0 notes are announced as follows:

Class Peerage – There isn’t a sign that the flames of war on the land of Gaia will subside… So the war would continue with the third advancement of class – Class Peerage! Let’s see who would be the last one to stand and be the true dominator of the land!
New System – Nemesis: After the lord completes a Peerage, their physical gets full elevation while another aspect of them buried deep in their heart is awakened with the in-depth rage invoked, leading to a lonelier and longer road to revenge!
New Feature – Road to Revenge: Cleitus: “Let vengeance sublimate your power – and conquer your enemies!” The Road to Revenge is destined to be long and lonely. Without the companion of old friends, you will have to fight your own way to the end of road to Revenge!
Class Peerage Equipment: There’s no easy way to get Class Peerage. You may need to make a lot of efforts in collecting peerage equipment, artifacts and halidoms!
New Dungeon – Ghoulish Abyss: Obstacles that you might face: rain of fire, lavaland, limbo, devil or maybe more! Hopefully you’re lucky enough to overcome all the difficulties and gain the artifacts and halidoms required for class peerage.
New Dungeon: Plague Marsh (Nightmare): A much more disastrous gas plague broke out after the long silence in the poisonous marsh., It’s now the time for you to go stop the spread of the plague!
New Dungeon: Tara Temple (Nightmare): The ancient Tara Temple finally opens its door to the next level. Get ready for the difficulties in the nightmare mode!
Adjustment to Path to Redemption: The Trial Body of the Nemesis is so powerful that the new Path of Redemption will be triggered by the Trail Body. Let’s get some training!
New Dungeon – Black Gold Cavern: The goddesses embark on a new journey – Black Gold Cavern after purifying the Path to Redemption. Goddess Heart Shard and Charm Mace will drop in this dungeon. Come challenge it with your partners!
Auto-Capture requirement lowered from VIP4 to VIP2.
Titan Temple blessing buff is enhanced again.
Class Advancement: now players only need to complete Demon Temple (Normal).
Now all players of the server may participate in Time Cavern.
Added a “Help” icon for Cuties, Cuties Expedition, Game Hall, Hephaestus Amethyst, Super Check-in Card, Fantasy Arena and Recharge Bonus.
Optimized system tips for Cuties Archive, Amethyst, titles, Emeraldia and Hephaestus Amethyst.
UI Interaction Optimization: Game Hall panel and reminder of Guild features.

I think this is a big sign of them getting desperate. Just had a patch not long ago and since that patch, they been adding many new cash events.

As many realize, flash will no longer be supported at the end of 2020, which is a long ways off. But I dona’t get it, if they plan to switch this game to html or whatever, the more stuff that gets added on flash version, I would think the more complicated it would be to make the switch. I am not a programmer so really don’t have a clue about these things but seems would be better to switch it sooner rather than later if they actually plan to. But with the way they are going, it doesn’t seem like they are planning on it.

  Sir/M’am, you are absolutely correct. Come Jan. 2020 this game will be supported only older browsers that support flash aka dead game come next year.

    Not sure it is ending Jan 2020. From my understanding, it will still be supported until the end of 2020. But not entirely sure on that.

  I got the impression that they are not planning html5 anymore as they have communicated few times now “don’t worry, it will keep on working, just flash support is ending”, which makes me think that they expect players to continue playing via flash.
  For how long? I don’t know.

    That would explain why they are doing what they are doing now. Before that announcement came out, forum mods said don’t worry, they are working on it as we speak, never did believe that. And now they seem to be advertising wartune reborn pretty heavy but that is run on flash too, which doesn’t make any sense

    If you’re correct and they’ve given up on the html5 conversion that rather stringly implies that they’ve also given up on fixing lag and other game issues as well. It looks like most current browsers will start blocking flash from the end of 2020 and although I’ve had a lot of fun playing Wartune, I definitely won’t be keeping an outdated (and vulnerable) broswer just so that I can run a flash (also outdated and vulnerable) game.
    
    There was a somehwat hysterical response by a mod on the R2 forum to someone suggesting that 7Roads was doing this deliberately so that they didn’t have to convert to html5 (I suspect it’s just down to basic incompetence by thw Wartune Devs). The impliation from the mod comments was very much that it would continue on as a flash game and that we should just keep on using Flash even after it reaches end of life.
    
    Maybe 7Roads will surprise us all and drop an html5 conversion and this current patch is just a stop-gap measure to keep people interested while they get it ready (I don’t have anywhere near the amount of faith in them to acutally believe this myself). Still their communication is truely abysmal both with their playerbase and apparently with their distributers.
    
    I also wonder how much playtesting this new patch got before they put it live?

    Ya you nailed it right at the end that their communication is abysmal. If they were honest people / good company, they would communicate regularly all news and their plans in advance. But they clearly are not which they have proven again and again over the years, which is why I have said several times that when the day comes that I stop playing Wartune, I will never play any MMO/big game by them again, that goes for 7Road, R2, ProfCity, and even AG. If they don’t care about us players and if they don’t care about their major blogger (i.e. me), why would we trust them in the future.

And no guide for the new patch yet? This release really does seem quite rushed.
