Horizons: Blight is back! The first patch applied to Blight

The Sour part is that at the end of the week (Aug 25, 2007), we will be resetting Blight to the Aug 21, 2007 backup - so any character progression, items, etc. earned on Blight during Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday will be not saved. This Sweet and Sour Treat ONLY applies to Blight. If you're feeling left out on the sweetness, it would be Super Sweet if we could get some feedback on the new client running on Blight. Notes on the changes can be found on the forums and login page. Not to spoil the surprise, but Client 382.0.0 might have some changes to the terrain system.

Update:

There's been lots of questions as to why we plan to rollback Blight this Friday to a previous version from August 21, 2007 morning. The new client deals with terrain in a significantly different manner than previous clients. While everyone is play testing on Blight, we're going to be doing terrain development testing in some parts of the world (test areas). We're hoping that nothing goes wrong, but with this sort of work it is possible that something could go wrong - like turning Tazoon into a mountainous region. We would rather have everyone prepared for a possible roll back and then make the decision not to rollback, than to say surprise at some point during the week. Blight is our testing shard and we're doing our best to make sure that players are aware of possible problems that could come up during testing. We really appreciate everyone's help and feedback with the new Blight client.
