Preview of VU8.2

[Pe-nerd]

Bring it on MA!!!

Finally some new exiting stuff, hope the add's will bring the loot up. I think that would make a lot a players very happy and satisfied with MA if it would. Seeing the Event system pre view picture it will become a curtain succes.

Nice Teaser ;-)

Note (as in Expectation Management) - this is the first step of ads in PE, and it contains participant-made ads and MA ads (not Massive's yet, as they come later). In this iteration each hour will consist of 30 min participant ads and 30 min MindArk ads. Each ad will be 30 sec long and is made with a tool resembling Powerpoint sort-off. This means there are 120 slots per hour and you set a budget to your ad and this gives you a probability of display per hour, based on the competition for the slots available.

With the event system, you can rent areas for a duration, apply tickets (those without tickets cannot be in the event area for the duration), and set rules and prizes (including adding items) as they like. The event system is one of the most complex systems to date, and this is also to be considered a first phase introduction, with more layers coming later this year.

The system is open so in theory yes. However, both the Event and Ad system is heavily monitored in order to battle abuse (I guess back in someones mind it would be ... "cool" to make an ad that defames another avatar, for instance). The Conditions of Use applies to the systems as well.

Use common sense and all will be fine. Don't use it and all will be a world of trouble. ,-)

Would be nice if we somehow could upload adds made in Photoshop or other program outside PE, would give us some new interesting "job functions" in PE
