"Shopping: Hats and Dresses.
Dear Players! We continue to work on reconstructing the shopping database and today we preset two new categories - Hats and Dresses (Suits), which now make the character clothes page complete. At first you might find that the set of clothes that you are able to buy is a bit limited. But, as your level grows, the more and more items in the shop will become unlocked for you and available for purchase. When and how will the players be able to get the advanced currency (former cash)? This is a very common question these days. Currently we are considering several different ways to give the players this possibility, but before this happens we would first like to complete the reconstruction of the shopping database. By the way, many players think that this is the currency that is limiting them from buying their favorite clothes in the shop, but this is actually not the case. Originally, all the items in the shop had their level requirement. The more advances is the item, the higher level requirement it has. However, if an item was sold for cash, then the level requirement for that item was removed. Meaning that even if we changed the currency type of some item to Carrots, then according to the original game logic, that item would also get quite a high level requirement (some items sold for carrots actually have level 57 requirement). So the advanced currency actually makes your life easier, it gives you an opportunity to buy some really amazing items in the shop without having to level up. Will there be an option to customize the clothes in the shop? This is a really great idea proposed by the Alicia players. Although there is no such option in the game interface, but this is very much possible to add some additional pre-customized versions of the items to the shop, for example a differently colored standard clothes or a long dark hair. If performed professionally, then such modification should have the same quality as the original item. Moreover, as this only involves some minor modification of the texture color space, all the physical aspects of the original item will be fully preserved. We really think that this idea has a big potential and we will surely consider it after the main functionality of the game is reconstructed~" "There has been a server crash.

"Shopping: Hairstyles, Tops and Bottoms.
Dear Alicians! Today for the first time you will be able to do real shopping. We have reconstructed the Hairstyles, Tops and Bottoms categories of the shopping database and these items are now available for purchase. After you purchase an item you will see an "Own" label over it. You can then open your inventory and put it on (in the future the system will be improved and you will be able to put the items on directly in the shop). Note that while we are reconstructing other parts of the shopping database, you can still use the horse armor for free. Refunding: The shopping system appeared to be much more sophisticated than we initially expected, and it also uses a lot of server resources. Our preliminary tests have shown that we need a more powerful server to support such a huge number of players. We are not able to perform the upgrade right now, but this might be resolved in the nearest weeks. Until then the shopping system may work not very stable and some of your orders might be processed incorrectly due to the possible overloads. Especially for such cases we have implemented a magic "Refund" button, which you can find in your profile at the website. If you encounter any issue with your orders, just click the "Refund" button, give a short description of what happened, press "OK" and restart the game - your inventory will be reset and all your spent carrots will be returned to your account. This functionality will be available all the time during the shop reconstruction and your queries will help us to improve the service. Cash items: In original version of the game there were two types of items - sold for carrots and sold for cash. As you all know, we are trying to make the game free, so there are no plans to use cash in Alicia. Nevertheless, we think that the very idea of multiple currencies in the game is quite successful, so we would like to preserve it. The new game currency will be given another name (for example, "Candy"). You will be able to get this new currency while participating in special game events, carnivals and contests. Or maybe you got you own ideas about it? Let us know what you think~" |
