Words from Marco Behrmann,

Hello all! 2005 has been a great year for Project Entropia and MindArk PE AB. 2006 looks even better! There are so many exciting things we have in stock for next year:
[ul]
[li]The team expands. The expansion from 2005 continues, with experienced new staff members coming, in every area of the company from programming, marketing, support and graphics. I really look forward to the massive increase to the graphics department, which will be almost tripled in size.[/li][li]Advertising in Project Entropia. The use of ads within the virtual universe will greatly enhance the experience and the flow. Anyone who wish will have the opportunity to disable the advertising feature, this action will result in the colonist receives normal loot levels as before.[/li][li]New content across the board. More new content systems will be added that influences both newcomers and veterans alike, preferably is the systems linked to one another. Major systems like the event system, factories for mass production and an employment system will create new diverse approaches to Project Entropia.[/li][li]New looks. With the added power to the graphics department several areas of Project Entropia will receive face-lifts to accommodate the virtual universe to the visuals expected for an online experience anno 2006. It will be a massive work but I believe the effort will be well worth it.[/li][li]More options. Effort will be put onto giving the participants more control over Project Entropia settings, to allow for a smoother experience based on the client hardware present.[/li][/ul]
Donāt forget to pick up your copy of the official PE Magazine, āThe Entropianā from the auction. I am sure your will find its content exciting, fun and enlightening. Also, this is probably going to become a collectorās item. Note the contest exclusively open to The Entropian owners which include unique items

And then they just take the list from A-Z⦠and plug in people. They can change the factors of ānoā and āyesā depending on the gamer ⦠I believe Rain Man discovered the lootsystem here ⦠Simple but effective

Oh, haha, thats hillarious =) āNormal loot levelsā So if you choose to disable ads youāll get 5% return in loot instead of 30% ? :laugh:
See this is why PE is better then any reality show on TV!

Im a little synical BUT this is the kind of thing companies will pay big ālootsā for lol

You think theyād actually code something to give MORE loot? .. I doubt it.
Chances are those that ādisableā the advertising, get a special automatic 10% loot tax (like an LA tax) but anywhere they hunt, and on any loot they get.

Hey now thats a great idea. Loot a 12 pack of coke, and receive a voucher that is worth some money off a 12 pack of coke from Coca Cola themselves.
