ROCKTropia announces new Mining Global Competition
Oh man, what a party we’ve been having since this latest update to ROCKtropia! In the midst of all our partying, we’ve left quite a few cocktails lying around, as well as all different kinds of styles of Rock. We’d like to have all of you help us clean up the aftermath of our good times. We’ve decided to give you a little incentive to get this clean up accomplished… In this thread, post a screenshot of your global on a ROCKtropia specific find such as Folk Rock, Blues Rock, or Maitai Cocktail, with your time stamp (this is very important,press U to get a timestamp in the chat window). The FIRST person to global on EACH DIFFERENT ore/en-mat, (this is why timestamps are required) after the specified event start time, will receive a bonus of 100 PED on top of their find. This means that once someone globals on a particular resource, such as Punk Rock, then that resource is now out of the competition. There will be one winner per ore or en-matter. In order to give everyone enough lead time to prepare, and so as not to give anyone an unfair advantage, the competition will start on Friday, September 10, at midnight, 00:00 GMT/ Entropia time. This should give you just under 24 hours to plan accordingly. We will end the competition once every ROCKtropia specific ore and en-matter has been found. This is not a largest loot, it just has to be a global, so a 50 PED find is as good as 50,000, it just needs to be the first one according to the EU timestamp, so remember to press “U” when you take that screen grab!! Strap up your finders and lets stock up on ROCK ‘n ROLL resources and make some extra bonus PEDs while you’re at it!
ROCKtropian of the month – September 2010
I am happy to announce the September 2010 ROCKtropian of the Month. This is an ongoing feature that will be announced at the beginning of every month. You could be next! Register at Neverdie.com for more info and your chance to be our next featured ROCKtropian! Amos Laban Naftale 1. How long have you been playing in Entropia Universe? A: Well, I guess it’s been 6 months now. Ever since just before the days of Skeezer as ROTM. Was there for his first congrats. 2. What made you travel to ROCKtropia? A: Was born here. But what made me choose ROCKtropia? Rock music, mostly. That and I had tried Calypso years ago and got so bored. 3. What do you like most about ROCKtropia? A: The community! (times a zillion) The community is what keeps me here for the long haul. We’re tight knit. Everybody knows everybody (to steal a line from a Country Western tune). Everyone’s all about having a good time and helping people out. 4. What is your favorite thing to do in EU? (hunting, mining, crafting, etc…) A: That’d have to be a tie between glitch/goofy dancing and hunting. Guess I’d have to go with Goofy Glitch Dance Hunting… yeah, that’s the best 5. What would you like to see in ROCKtropia? A: Shops, apartments, etc,etc aside (since we already know y’all are working on those), * ROCKtropia specific vehicles and ROCKtropia specific vehicle decals (like flaming guitars and Rock band logos) * Live ingame DJs who play different types of stuff during different times. * A big circular dance stage in the CoD club with a glass floor and strobe lights (stage would be in the middle of the auction counter about the height of that ledge… just knock out some concrete and let’s dance!!!) * Music videos on the billboards. Would be awesome to be driving along and lookup and see, eherm, STATIC-X playing on one of the billboard screens. WOot! 6. What is your favorite area/land on RT? A: I like CoD for hanging out with people. Love the platform on top of the CND tower for parties. Love exploring the land region with all it’s canyons near Whiteline (and that bridge there is just plain amazing looking from a distance) 7. What is your favorite creature/monster on RT? A: Favorite monsters for the design of them are Motorheads and love hunting those solo or in 2-3 person teams. But by far my favorite one to hunt is Opalo hunting Joplin Dragons with 12 guns like we do almost nightly on the Special. WOot! 8. What is it you want to be known for most on ROCKtropia? A: Hopefully as a funloving person and someone new players can come to for advice. 9. What music would you like to hear on CND? A: Ahh, glad you asked… Static-X: I’m With Stupid… probably one of my favorite songs

Content Release 2010.4
PLANET CALYPSO CONTENT RELEASE 2010.4 2010-08-31 ***PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENT IF YOU FIND SOMETHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY IN PLANET CALYPSO! IT MIGHT PROVIDE THE INFO YOU NEED BEFORE CONTACTING THE SUPPORT DEPARTMENT!*** RESETTLEMENT UPDATE It has been one full year since the Frontier re-opened after the impact of War Titan Typhon. On the very anniversary of the impact, the Robots started a new offensive against humans after staying away for years. There have been a lot of speculations of the reasons why; the most popular theory speaks of a field test of a new kind of Robot technology, derived from the notorious Scylla kept locked away under a bunker at Zychion. The new Scylla-type technology apparently allows robots to evolve, and has so far manifested itself as the Hydra – several times. Brave colonists have so far repelled the hydra seven times, thanks to a superhuman effort by alert intelligence gatherers and brilliant code crackers. Key intelligence about the Hydra and its Scylla-type technology was handed over from the RX units. It is still not known why the alleged hybrid-robot enemies decided to help humans. Their motives remain a mystery, and CDF would like to remind everyone that any kind of collaboration with the enemy is considered treason. NEW FEATURES Let there be light There are three new lamps to be found. Old and New Missions The name tags of all the Iron Challenge Mission Brokers have been updated to contain the name of the contact. On top of that, there are 18 new missions available. New teleporter official The teleporter at the Calypso Gateway has been improved to be more noticeable. Also, to instruct new players on how to use the teleporter, there is a Teleporter Operator standing next to it. Next Stop Fort Troy There is a new mission chain linking Swamp Camp to Fort Troy, introducing some interesting locations while travelling. There are also some hidden secrets to unlock. Seek out the Swamp Camp Mission Broker to start this epic trek. Love is in the air A love-struck boy hanging around near Cayuze is looking for the courage to woo the love of his life. New Challenges There is a new Daikiba Iron Challenge in Twin Peaks and a Feffoid Bronze Challenge in Fort Fury. Quench your thirst The bartender in Fort Fury is looking for beer. FIXED ISSUES Mission issues Fixed position issues with some mission NPCs Fixed issue with “A private message from Mr Lyndon” Typos fixed in Fujiko Takida’s mission “Clear the area” Gateway issues Gateway teleporter made more eye-catching Set missing planet icon above the head of the Hunting Official Fixed issue with the crafting dialogue making it impossible to complete the crafting quest if you left the dialogue open while crafting Miscellaneous issues Fixed issue with Memorial Island TP not having a name in the teleporter list Estate Development Program orders were carried out General spawns tweaked KNOWN ISSUES A flower in the mission "Adam's anguish" has the wrong icon in the Quest/Mission Log.

Miner finds over 119,000 PED worth of loot on ROCKtropia
On Saturday, August 28, one of EU’s highest level miners found the 7th highest ever single loot in a mine on ROCKtropia. Joe Jeff xXSqUaLLXx found 119,001 PED ($11,900 USD) worth of Binary Fluid, a necessary resource for crafting. This is the largest find ever on that particular resource, and also represents Joe Jeff’s largest single loot ever. This also marks the high water mark for a single loot on ROCKtropia, so a number of milestones were reached this past weekend. We hope to get in touch with this uber-looter very soon to bring you the inside scoop. Stay tuned to neverdienews.com for all the latest information from the Rockin’est planet in the Entropia Universe!
Content Update Leaked…
Rumor has it that Neverdie’s private stash of weapon designs and descriptions of new resources were reported stolen in a confidential memo on Monday. Though no specific details were released, for obvious reasons, speculation is that new resources may have found their way to ROCKtropia. New, secret weapon designs may also have been taken, according to our inside source, who insisted on anonymity, for fear of repercussions. “I heard that many different weapon system designs my have found their way into the hands of these thieves,” claimed the fearful insider. “It could even be in the double digits!” Our secret source tells us, “The economy of ROCKtropia may never be the same, once these weapons hit the market. I mean, if people got a hold of these weapons, who knows if the native species of dragons, wolves and other creatures on the planet would survive?” More information may be released soon, or perhaps world-renowned gamer Neverdie may try to keep this story under wraps, stay tuned for more information…
Latest Buzz (27th August)
Downtime next week You should expect a little downtime next week due to Version Update. This will most likely be on Tuesday, but be aware that the date is subject to change. Our Content Release this time will be a minor one, with a lot of focus on bugfixes. It is also rumored to contain “Love”! O la la! Mulciber Shoulder-pads The Mulciber seems to have misplaced its fancy skull shoulder-pads. Were they melted and used in the making of the dreadful “Hydra”? Perhaps it just wants to go undercover a little, and mingle with the normal Eviscerators? Whatever the reason, they now look like the regular Eviscerators. So pay attention to the name of the creature you tag, or you might get a nasty surprise! Moving of Robot spawns Some robot spawns have been a bit problematic, so they’ve been moved or removed. However, we’re trying to keep areas available for all levels of hunters to find a spot suitable for them. So if you just lost your favorite hunting-spot, there’s a big chance there’s a similar spawn at another location. Notice of absence Community Manager Hanne will be unavailable until September 12th. In the mean time, other FPC staff will keep an eye out for the community. See you soon!

The Death of a Hydra
Photographic Documentation from tonight’s killing of the new robot-type “Hydra”. This was the third in the series; The first was claimed by Art of War, the second had a run-in with our city defenses and the third were taken down today by Universe United. The JamRaiders were allowed to silently scout the new area out, since no one had yet cracked the robot intercept about the new coordinates: Some of Calypso’s finest were already on stand-by though, much thanks to the expert decoder Aia. When the EBN hit about the new coordinates, it did not take long until the area was filled with triggerhappy colonists, quickly killing off the waves of robots. And then Hydra appeared:
New robot encryption cracked!
EBN News: Intelligence work was thrown into disarray as the robots deployed a new encryption protocol. Thanks to intelligent code breakers, the new code was cracked and we now know that the robots will deploy their new Hydra robot at least twice. However, CDF Intelligence Service is worried about that not all of the coded transmissions have been decoded. “At least one coded transmission is still not decrypted” an analyst says. “Who knows what it contains? It can be a change of time, change of location, or even that the whole trial has been suspended because someone spilled coffee in the next Hydra unit.” The undecrypted transmission was sent on Friday at around 14:45 UTC, and contained the following codes: 0×9E6064229232546591EEC41E64F538939E01B21649BF 0×8A48C9519AC7 0×0C825A2AC1
Alarming Robot Presence
Robot messages have been intercepted. Colonists should be cautions, as a large increase in the robot presence has been reported in various places on Planet Calypso. Several high level threats have also been detected. Stay alert.
Gothenburg Culture Festival
Thursday last week was a busy day for us here at First Planet Company. As mentioned in this EntropiaForum thread, we engaged real avatars to come dance with us in a simple coreographed dance, to show the people gathered at Gothenburg Culture Festival that culture exists in virtual realities, too. The dancing was recorded and shown at the big stage at prime time here in Gothenburg. The whole video will be uploaded to our YouTube channel later on (I’ll link to it from here when that happens) when we get the text fixed to English instead of the current swedish. For now, here are pictures of the event itself. Frank on stage, introducing the video and explaining about Planet Calypso: And then, Dancing! Warpath says “G’day mate!” to the audience: We also had a small stand at the “Games Thursday” exhibition at the City Library, where we were giving out flyers and talking to people, and showing them the game. Some of you might have bumped into our Convention avatar in-game, with curious to-be-players behind the wheel. Hope you were nice to them!
Latest Buzz (August 11th)
Anniversary of the 10.0 launch! Soon, on Tuesday the 17th August, it will be a whole year since the 10.0 launch when Planet Calypso was reborn with CryEngine2 graphics. We at First Planet Company will be marking this occasion. Stay tuned! New World Designer First Planet Company has just got a new World Builder! The handsome chap named David has some run-time as a level designer behind him, and he’s just about managed to survive his first days here at the office since he started on Monday. Welcome David! Plans for Autumn Now that we have the Calypso Gateway, we are going to extend that feeling into Planet Calypso. That will be one of our goals of the early autumn, to extend the newcomer experience. What we’re aiming to do is to create a nicer place for the newcomers to start off at. Right now we feel that Port Atlantis is mostly just another place on Calypso and not too newcomer friendly. It lacks the purpose it is supposed to have, and doesn’t fill the needs that it should. We want to bring that purpose back to the newcomer capital.
