Weekly development updates

<< < (5/7) > >>

Kamaran:
I will start out with an apology for last weeks missing updates. ^^

I simply forgot it in the hunt for generation 5 leaks and updates. Which we got.
The generation 5 starter pokemon were revealed and their Japanese names are as following; Tsutaaja, Pokabu and Mijumaru. You can see them in colour by clicking on the link.

As for the 5th. Private Pre-beta patch. You guys still gotta wait. We are currently editing/fixing some coding.

In other news: We have had a major switch-out in the team.

* Shashi is no longer community manager
* Ilsu333 left the team
* Ameyathed is nowhere to be found
* Raikt joined the balancing projectYou can see the whole team here.

Wasabi-knight and Chaoticxsinz are still working on www.pokemon-universe.com version 3.0. I have been told that it will be much much more than just a forum as it is now.

Regarding the public editor; it is currently set on hold until further notice. - I'm sorry guys.

Kamaran:
Quite awesome week so far :)
The PU team has been very constructive and we got to see the generation 5 legendaries.

Let's start with the legendaries
The Pokemon Company revealed two new pokemons this week; the main legendaries for the Black and White games. As every other generation 5 pokemon, you can find them here. It has been confirmed that they are at least part dragon-type.

As for the balancing project; Level5Pidgey, Gammal, Stephenkill2 and Raikt have really got some work done this week. And I can only say that it looks promising.

Here is a Offensive Swampert as it looks now;
[spoiler]
Tier 1:
----------
Aqua Intimidation - If this Pokemon's Aqua Tail misses, there is a 33/66/100% chance that the enemy's Defense is lowered by 2 stages.
Improved Facade - Facade has a 33/66/100% chance to ignore the attack reducing effects of Burn.
Keen Eye - This Pokemon's accuracy with all moves is increased by 3/5%

Tier 2:
----------
Mudslide - Swampert's Torrent boosts Ground attacks by 5/10/15%
Take the Edge Off - Double Edge only deals 28/24/20% recoil damage.

Ability:
----------
Torrent

Tier 3:
----------
No Ripples - Water attacks have 2/3/5% more power, at the expensive of Ground attacks having 1/2/3% less.
Dirty Work - Ground attacks have 2/3/5% more power, at the expensive of Water attacks having 1/2/3% less.

Tier 4:
----------
Weighted Stones - Stone Edge loses its increased critical chance, but gains 3/7/10% Accuracy.
Deluge - Waterfall loses its chance to make the opponent Flinch, but gains 2/5/8 base power.

Ultimate:
----------
Improved Torrent - This Pokemon's torrent now activates at 34/36/38/42/45%
[/spoiler]
Please note that this is not final.
You can find all finished Pokemons on the optimizer board. (link)

In other news I can information you that;

* Thia, a pixelartist, joined on trail
* Summer starts tomorrow! (Unless you're Aussie)
I knew I had forgot something!
Also; OVER 9000 MEMBERS!

Kamaran:
First of all, we the PU team, will like to apologize once again.
The Zubat that had a rampage on our site is now dead.

I can inform you that the balancing project is still ongoing, and as last I showed last week, the pokes turn out nicely. The guys will soon start on the fire-types.

Two public notations;

1)
We'll gladly see more of you guys in our chat or/and in the ventrilo server.

2)
We're running low on donations, and will most likely not be able to pay next month's hosting fee. (thus we can't develop).
Please feel free to donate. Even the smallest donation is appreciated :)

Also;
Carbon is off the team.

Kamaran:
With Mr_Dark and Urmel gone to England we had one massive online drinking party at the chat. (18+ and no nudity :()

That means we have done absolutely nothing this week :D
 - Besides celebrating Amphy's birthday

nah... I can't lie.
The balancing team have almost finished all the water type starters and are desperately looking forward to start with the fire types.

The Game User Interface have been improved a bit and the mapping dudes have added a bit more area.

At the moment many of our team members and other people who join us at the chat, are busy playing ChibiVampire's RP game. Found here.
I suggest you give it a look.

Furthermore; I'll see if I can "leak" some of the balanced water starters soon, as I did earlier with the not-finished Swampert. Wish me luck.

On a final note from Mr_Dark and Urmel, I should tell you all that;
"DOWNLOAD FESTIVAL WAS \\m//"

Kamaran:
As some of you might have seen; with the help from Amphy and ChibiVampire, Pokemon-Universe introduced the new RolePlaying corner. You can be out of character and completely random here. xD

Bakagringo told me that he is somewhat finished with the root part of the GUI. Pictures of this new GUI can be found on the contributor board, which is a special area for members with high donations and other major contributions.

Mr_Dark is still building a version 2 of the servers to optimize gameplay and functionality.

This was also the week where we got to see more generation 5 pokemons. You can find the thread at this link.
