    A bunch of stuff happening this week, a new patch will go live tomorrow, August 23rd. Along with the patch comes lowering of Blood Coin prices, new season and a remade training/tutorial system.

    Patch 2.6
    For full details on the changes in the client patch, you can find the Patch Notes here.

    Blood Coin price reduction and Marketplace update
    The items affected by the Blood Coin reduction are medallions, gems and some of the Bloodlines. The Blood Coin price for unlocking traits will be completely removed. We’re also lowering the Funcom Point price on Reaver, Grimrog, Metal Warden, Stormcaller to 480 Funcom Points.

    New season means new avatars! This time you’ll find them available for tokens in the token shop! On top of that we’re also releasing weapons for Alchemist, Engineer, Glutton and Headhunter in the new Runic set which also is available for tokens.

    On sale this week, starting from tomorrow, you can get a bunch of silver weapons at 50% discount.

    Season Change

    After the patch last week we’re now evaluating the changes in both prices, tutorial and balance. This will take a while before we get any clear results, but we’re very eager to see what kind of results the change will give us.

    To motivate you guys some extra to play so we get more to evaluate, we’re running an XP and Blood Coin Boost this weekend! If you have friends who might be interested in trying the game out, this is the time to do it.

    As mentioned previously we’re evaluating the changes we’ve made lately to see where to go with the game. Unfortunately we’ve had some sickness and people out of the office the past week so things have been running a bit slower than usual. Something we are working on is to give new players a more rewarding and motivating first steps into BLC.

    Marketplace
    This week you can find some new floral weapons and a bunch of officer outfits available in the marketplace.

    On top of that we’re running a 40% sale on skirmisher outfits.

    Avatar contest
    It’s been awhile since we ran a contest and these used to be some of the more popular ones. It’s your chance to make a mark in BLC by making an avatar that gets added into the game and can be found in the marketplace! The participants who win will of course get their own avatar for free.
    You can find more details here

    We’ve heard a lot of thoughts and ideas about parties in the Solo Queues and the 3v3 queue getting drained. We’ve decided to limit the party functionality in Solo Queue to only let parties with a maximum of two (2) players join the solo Queue. This also mean that the “Play with Same” function will be removed from Solo queue but it will stay available in scenarios. We’ll add this change as soon as we get the chance.

    We are also looking into ideas on how to make the 3v3 Queue more attractive to players. You can expect some boosted rewards for playing 3v3 in the future for example.

    Marketplace
    During the Midweek Sale you can get the Blood Priest Kid emote at 75% off!
    We’re also running a 50% sale on the Sacrificial Weapons until next Wednesday!

    Avatar Contest
    Don’t miss the chance to get your own work into the game, we’re running another avatar contest! Last date to submit is 2012-09-16 20:00 UTC. More information can be found in this thread.

    Manly Bacon
    Mr2 has begun to plan the second edition of the Manly Bacon Tournament. There’s not much news yet but things seem to be in the works.

    The most exciting thing this week must almost be the invincible Ranid bug we had escalating abuse of the last 2 days. This bug got fixed in the hotfix patch earlier today, so no need to fear ranids more than usual in the arenas. ^^

    Avatar Contest
    We’ve also concluded the third round of the Avatar Contest, and here are our top three winners.



    The winners will receive a pool of Blood Coins each, and of course get their own avatar in diamond quality. All winning avatars will be purchasable in the marketplace after the next patch.
    Additional winners can be found in this thread.

    It’s been a while, so we’re doing a Blood Coin boost weekend! Between Friday 21/9 12:00 UTC until Monday 24/9 12:00 UTC the Bloodcoin gain from games will be increased by 50%.

    Marketplace
    Taunt emotes are at 50% Off atm, and some new Runic Weapons are available in the token tab!

    3v3
    As mentioned before we’re looking at what we can do to motivate players to play 3v3. Here are some of the ideas we have:

    Increase Blood Coin gain from 125% to 150% in Team 3v3.
    A reward for every 50th game a team play in the 3v3 ladder. The more games the better reward, until 150 games, after that you’ll receive the same reward as for 150 games when reaching 200 and so forth. The reward is likely to be a token reward to boost your token count you get from playing in tournaments.
    We will also increase the Rating required for grades in Solo Matchmaking and 2v2 Team Matchmaking with 5%.


    New players
    To make life a bit easier and more motivating for new players, we’re adding progression rewards for the earlier levels to prepare them a bit for when they reach the time for some serious play. We’re also adding 3 new Basic Trainings, one with Igniter, one with Spear Master and one with Glutton.


    Marketplace
    This week you can get Seeker and any of his accessories at 40% discount, and until Friday you can get Gunner at 70% discount!
