Erm no idea, last time i was playing it was testing, he was adding some cool stuff like a auction house for players which was working but as it was just testing and would be wiped i decided to stop playing til it fully opened, but it looks so good.

Meh i gave up on crappy some servers along time ago, the amount of effort people put into making a soma server now is shocking, all they do is increase rates, put some armors in shop and bobs your uncle, it's a load of balls. Atleast with Shinra they are coding some new stuff, SomaDev will never be complete, it's been well over 3 years also since they started, they hardly touched D Soma so we expected another 3 years?

SomaDev is make or break but if they keep delaying it, there will no longer be a community around to play it, look how many people have left soma over the years waiting for it, In my honest opinion i don't think they will ever release it, i think it's just simply something they are doing for the sake of it. You would look at Shinra now and compare it with SomaDev, they look far more developed then somadev and they have been developing for a couple of months, and yes i know somadev how alot more security hense why they taking so long but really, the same old hacks work on it still.

Got to agree with you there, Somadev havent even started ingame content, there still working on client and 1p1 stuff but instead of doing decent stuff there sorting humans con out which has actually made con pointless.
