From Poseidon (blog)== 2015 ===== May Treasure Hunt - Celebration ===''By Spellcast - [http: "Due to the success and population of //forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/124138-may-treasure-hunt-celebration-on-the Pristine server, we felt that it was time to launch another server connected to the south of Pristine.-30th-at-0800-pm-utc-countdown-timer-corrected/ Forum Link]''

The new server '''So another treasure hunt is named Release (December 19upon us.''' I've scaled this one back a bit from the last one, 2012) which was a bit overly complex and you may access it by sailing south on confusing in some respects. There is only a boatsingle run, with 12 clues. It is not connected to The end of the main Freedom servers at the moment and hunt will have: * 10 chests with prizes that will be connected to the rest immediately available-OR-* 20 keys, one of the Freedom cluster which will open a grand prize chest at the same time as Pristinestart town.

Thank you everyone for your support and welcome In addition to all of our new players! We’ve seen the grand prize, there will be 19 other chests in the start town, each with a very pleasing rise small item in playercount since Wurm has hit 1.0. We’ve got them as consolation prizes so anyone who manages to get a few more issues to deal with but we’re making really great progress in that directionkey will get something, even if its not the grand prize."<br><small>--[[User:Mirabelle|Mirabelle]] 13:41, 23 December 2012 (UTC)</small>

==== Official release of Wurmonline 1.0 and launch of new Freedom server--[[User: Pristine ====Marni|Marni, Wurmpedia Manager]] ([[User talk:Marni|talk]]) 12:34, 2 June 2015 (CEST)

From Rolf (blog)=== Spring Update ===''By Wossoo - [http: "Alright, the cat’s out of the bag!//forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/123100-news-update-work-and-progress-week-19/ Forum Link]''

We’re officially '''Bridges, Boats and Stairs!''' We will be releasing Wurm Online 1the Spring Update next week, on Tuesday 12th May.0 We don't have a specific time set, but will aim to release as soon as we can on the 12th December 2012day. Key updates:* The first and main feature of the update will be bridges. The feature will be released in full, allowing for all kinds of creativity... ranging from bridges across water and valleys to bridges between buildings, in four flavours: rope, wood, stone and marble.* We are also releasing a couple of other features in the release, the first of which is the new boat models. The boats themselves will go unchanged, but all boat types will get updated models.* The last part of the update will be stairs.

What it means is Wurm will contain That concludes this week's news. Excited? Join us next Tuesday for the (improved) features that we consider make release of the game marketable. We will finally have character customization, visible armour, biggest single feature since multi -storey buildings and nicer looking creatures.housing!

We are also planning to open up at least one pristine freedom server that won’t be connected to the freedom cluster for an undetermined amount of time in order to provide that total newbie feeling. As most of you have noticed during all these years we’ve kept a low profile when it comes to attracting customers. It has been a deliberate strategy due to our special development situation. It has worked well and we have attracted the customer base we’ve needed to keep the flame burning. Once we’ve released, that strategy will change to a more open one and we will spend more time communicating next year. Stargrace and Wossoo have done a great job with that so far with the twitter and facebook accounts and tried to keep you guys informed about what we’ve been doing in development."<br><small>--[[User:Mirabelle|Mirabelle]] 13:32, 23 December 2012 (UTC)</small> ==== Dev Q&A discussion for the Wurm 1.0 Launch ==== On Decemeber 07, 2012, the Dev Team held an IRC discussion to address questions submitted to them related to the 1.0 Launch and ongoing development plans. The transcript was recorded and provided by Ruger in the forum here [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/70781-qa-log-discussion/ Forum Link] Due to the length of the transcript, sections are broken out under spoiler tags for ease of reading and identification of content/subject.<br><small>--[[User:Hussars|Hussars]] 23:19, 07 December 2012 (UTC)</small> ==== A Fourth Freedom Server has been launched - Celebration ==== From Rolf (mail): "All this means that it's time for Celebration, so we're opening a new Freedom server with that name tomorrow! Isn't that great? The new server will be located on the south border of Exodus. The opening is scheduled at 15.00 hrs CET on the 31st of May and hopefully everything goes as smooth as I expect. Wish me luck!"<br><small>--[[User:Daray|Daray]] 00:20, 14 July 2012 (UTC)</small> ==== A Third Freedom Server has been launched - Exodus ==== From Rolf (blog): "The Deliverance server is still being settled, and I’ve decide to release even more land south of it. The Exodus server will be made available tomorrow at 18.00 CET (September 15, 2011). The idea is that it will cater for those who felt they missed out on the soft spots of Deliverance. I think Exodus is a beautiful server personally, but I may be shooting off the target with it because it’s so infested with creatures that I fear people will die. Instead of successfully settling the land, they will respawn at the start village without their tools and weapons, surrounded by equally fragile newbies. If you decide to go there, do not blame me for leading you on! I have tried to warn you. You will need to survive long enough to settle down. Then again, backing up into the water or onto the boat should suffice in most situations I guess. What you who start as newbies somewhere in the center area will do I don’t know. I think you will have to slowly wear down the wall of critters with your own wall of meat and maybe build some towers to help clear the way."<br><small>--[[User:MirabelleMarni|Mirabelle]] 11:42Marni, 23 September 2011 (UTC)</small> ==== A Second Freedom Server has been launched - Deliverance ==== Due to congestion and the relative difficulty of finding virgin lands on the current Independence server, we’ve decided that it is time to release a new Freedom server. We shall call it Deliverance and it will be the new default server for newbies.This historical land rush event – the first in several years – is scheduled Tuesday at 18.00 hrs CET (the 6th of Sept). The new lands will be located south of the existing Independence server and you will be able to sail there. The only portal that leads to it will be from the tutorial server. Due to technical difficulties the launch was postponed for 1 day.<br><small>--[[User:Mirabelle|MirabelleWurmpedia Manager]] 01:07, 14 September 2011 (UTC)</small> ==== 50/50 ratio for aggressive and non-aggressive animals ==== To help remedy the controversy between Wurmian hunters and breeders, the creature spawning/breeding now has two pools where 50% is reserved for aggressive animals and 50% for non-aggressive. This should even out over time. When a cap is reached you will not be able to breed more animals, but already pregnant animals will still give birth. See [[Wurm Server Release History#110426 Long awaited client and server update|here for a more details]]. <br><small>--[[User:Mirabelle|Mirabelle]] 08:24, 29 April 2011 (UTC)</small> ==== Goodbye Home Servers ==== A melancholy day in Wurm Online as the much loved home servers are removed for good. Such is the price of progress however, as the new Freedom server has been booming in player activity, reaching a peak player count of over two-hundred. Characters on Jenn-Kellon and Mol-Rehan home who have had premium in the past but who didn't migrate have now been moved to the wild server, and the others who have never been premium were deleted. In unrelated news, the artifacts on the wild server have been reset and the race is on once again to find them. <br><small>[[User:Robert|Jup]] 04:19, 16 July 2009 (CDT)</small> ==== Freedom Server ==== New lands exist to be explored! The [[Freedom]] server has no player versus player combat, no resource [[QL]] cap, and is [[premium]] only. You can find this exciting new server by sailing south of the home servers or taking a [[Item:Freedom_stones|freedom stone]]. The home servers will both be shutting down in a few weeks, cutting Freedom off from [[Wild]].
