Not exactly a typo. Just... for a moment, I thought that I had accidentally put one of my pets for sale. But no, he was only listed for breeding. 


Actual typo:
Cancel sale

Should be: Cancel breeding (or just Cancel, like in pet profiles)

Located on: Trading -> Breeding Offers -> any of your listed pets.

Actual Typo: "You have sent the message."

Should Be: "You have sent your message"

Located on: Messages

 

You have sent "the" message just seems a bit odd because I feel like I'm a secret agent delivering something very important.

 

Not really a typo, or grammar, just odd wording.

 

Thanks

Sorry, the beginning section didn't show up...here is what I typed before.

1b you will lost them when the bug will be fixed
1d for buggy and unbalanced game
e do not plan to make a wipe after the end of Beta test.

 

Should be:

1. What does "Beta" word on your logotype mean?
This game isn't a finished product and its core features are still in the process of development.  If you decided to join the Beta test, please note the following points:
a.  You may encounter bugs and issues.  As a Beta tester, you accept to report the encountered bugs here.
b.  If you got some in-game values due to a bug, you will lose them when the bug will be fixed.
c.  Any game aspect may change at any time. This includes prices, rates, mechanics etc.
d.  You won't be able to purchase Gold Coins before the release. We don't think that it's fair to get money for a buggy and unbalanced game.
e.  We do not plan to wipe after the end of Beta testing.

Thanks, almost all is fixed :)

Nightingale, I've seen the use of "you have sent a / the message" in web many times, and "you - your" word combination sounds to me like tautology. I'm not sure about this one, sorry.

Galerane, sorry, I do not see any changes in the text, it's just a copy without any changes except lettering instead of the bullets.

@Angel

(Lol, excuse me, on a roll here so a nice big block of text will be coming up right after this small notice)

 

Actually, both you and Nightingale are correct about the so-called 'typo'. But yet it's not a typo at all, both sentence will work and can be used, it's just more or less one sentence, Nightingale's, has a more direct tone to it while yours I would say has a more less directed tone to it...I recommend saying both sentences out loud for this one. However, I do think this 'typo' seems to be more of a 'I think this sentence sounds better than the one one' sort, depends if you are ok with a sentence that is directly talking about someone's something next to a sentence that lightly 'skids' around taking any direction.

if my explanation isn't clear, lets just for example say I needed you to do something for me, if I was going the way Nightingale said, it may sound like 'I want you to bring that bowl of fruit over"

as opposed to yours, which would sounds like 'Can someone bring the bowl of fruit over?" (Please take note I hadn't directly stressed/selected out any specific word as the other example sentence, indicating this one is much 'lighter toned' that the other somewhat more 'directed/Strong, perhaps even more 'demanding' one').

...bascially that's what Nightingale had more or less wrote/perhaps meant, but honestly, both works, it's just dependent on how direct/strong you want to 'sound'.

...and seriously you could even say 'You have sent a message' if you really wanted to 'go there' with this 'typo', lol.

*cough cough* But okay, hope this helps and that I did alright in trying to explain this, and yes erm, it still is quite the tautology, lol XD

'Mechanicians Guild is looking for an agile (45) Puma to find a natural tunnel to the deposits in the Selenium mine.'

But I thought it's the Miners who use the Pumas? ;)

I killed the thread.

The text for the portal on the Tactics map needs to be updated. It still advertises 10 rating points + 4k silver instead of the new system. 


Rocs: Garuda: Wing and Strike
Cockatrices: Hydralisk
Throdamas: Swarm

Lykos: Fenrir
Symurghs: Primavera

I'm not sure if Fire Strike and Fire Breath are different things or if they are two terms for the same thing. If the latter...

Should be: Fire Strike
