DunDef Digest 1/3/2012 Discussion Thread

0-A Dungeon Lovers!

1/3/2012

Welcome to the year 2012! We hope everyone had a spectacular holiday and a stellar New Years! We hope you spent all that time playing DunDef and anticipating future DLC. I mean, thats exactly what we did... ish

We spent a portion of our holiday moving into a NEW OFFICE! That means no more elbow to elbow and shoulder to shoulder high impact coding/programming/testing/PRing/etc-ing for us! We now live the sweet sweet life of individual chairs, desks, and PC's (I guess a few folks use Mac but they basically aren't real people). So we put a little bit of blood and a lot of sweat into moving everything ourselves and getting the office set up for upcoming interns and a couple employees to help Trendy step into the great blue yonder on stronger and more learned legs.

- Don't worry though! Sore legs and strained backs didn't stop us from planning more Holidays to coincide with Events! Events to coincide with dates! Dates to correlate with Holidays! And holidays to be formed for Events! Prepare those anxious ears for ultra Trendestic goodness... just not today.

- Speaking of Events! The Amazing Hitmonchan ([[1020,hashtags]]) will be running our final Console Event from 12 noon to 10:00pm EST this Thursday and Friday. What a sweetheart! We should have clarified info on console updates and the likes in coming Digests.

- One jump ahead of the breadline?

Gotta eat to live, gotta DLC to eat

- As the old adage goes, "All men were born with two hands, and thus all men shall carry one sword". But us Trendians hate adages... especially old ones. Prepare to yield to no foe during any duel as you dual wield against all foes who pray to yield!

But seriously, Congrats on the new office, I'm seriously hyped for the new DLC and especialy the barbarian!

So how's Barbarian work now? Dual-wield still seems to be in, but does he have his own unique weapons or does he just dual-wield different Squire swords? I thought he was supposed to be using axes.

Also, 'grats on the transition and good luck with the extra space and figuring out how to get it used efficiently.

And more importantly, is he coming to console?

LOL.. oh your serious?
MORE IMPORTANTLY DOES HE HAZ HIS OWN TOWERZ?? I would not be surprised to see half huntress half monk with this one lol. Nah jk trendy, but seriously new towers?

Is the barbarian going to be yet another paid dlc? I don't think it should.

I presume it will be :d

Well it's not the first time promised content became paid only.

I don't remember them promising the new characters for free.

If you look at their class chart it appears that he will have squire/countess towers

Link? Is that specifically stated by TE?

I really hope he comes with the second part of the quest for the lost shards considering how skimped we were on the first one.
They said he would be coming with the quest for the lost eternia shards but if that just means just the general time and he releases seprate (Especially since I bought all the DLC in that pack) that will be the last nail in the really ugly coffin.

Is there any news about when the Mac version will be out? I have DunDef for Xbox 360 and I've very much enjoyed it there. So, I can't wait to try it out on my computer.

/refreshes forum for 2 weeks waiting for new Digest

/sees half-sentence mentioning possible future info for consoles...

Okay. :(

""Barbarian" in January, and then the steampunk automaton "Series EV" in February. These new Heroes bring with them completely new Defenses, abilities, and weapon capabilities"

The is what they said in the interview so I dont see where you get the he will have countess/squire towers.

Well atleast the Barbarian has a reason for not wearing Pants, unlike the Squire.

I am so gonna go and watch Aladdin now.

Guess it's safe to assume yet again, that this is PC only? -.-

New classes, new towers

Do not believe otherwise m8s ;)

Its never safe to assume. Just wait and see. As of yet there is almost no information on the details of it, and until there is any information at all assuming is the worst thing we can do.

Read that. Them having new defenses, abilities, and weapons was obvious. The class isn't a gender swap so it has to have original things. But that article doesn't say what kinds of defenses, what types of abilities, the date it will be released, if it will be paid or free, if its part of the DLC, or if a console release date will be near, far, or non existant.

Console?

If its not for console, while pc gets plugged again maybe should think about moving the digest to pc section? Its a let down to hear how much pc gets all the time and wait patiently for scraps.
