Auto Assault News - Update #1

Posted by Jon Wood on Jun 21, 2006  | 0 comments in our forums

NetDevil and NCsoft have released the first update (Update 1) for their vehicle-based MMORPG, Auto Assault. Below, you will find a sampling (only the first section) of a very large set of notes for the update. Follow the link below to read it all. The patch is available from their FTP site:

 

They have also provided us with a picture-guided tour of some of the features that have come up with this update. You can read that feature, here.

 

Additions

  • Respec feature added. Terminals in towns will allow players to purchase respec of attribute points, skill points and R&D points. Limit once every 48 hours and there is a cost. Players receive one free respec due to significant changes. Terminals can be found in: Tocado, Crossroads, Citadel, Upside, Apollo, Duenna.
  • Loot linking now works within the same zone. Thus if you are in /say /general and /trade you can click on the item links and if the item is available it will appear. If the character is not in the same zone, the item will not popup, also there is a limit of 10 item windows at a time. There are future plans to make this work in the other channels across zones.
