Results of the Fansite Feedback Form From March 18, 2016 till April 1, 2016 we had asked you for feedback about our fansite programme via a feedback form. 293 Tibia players participated and we would like to present the results to you now.
55 participants showed no interest at all in the fansite programme. From the remaining 238 interested people, around 39 % explained that all is well with the programme and that they did not have any complaints. 15 % said that they indeed have criticism, but unfortunately they did not feel like sharing it with us.
The remaining 46 % (110 people) decided for the option to give us more elaborate feedback, a bit more than a simple "all is ok" or "it is not ok".
The feedback form offered two options for comments. First of all, the option to leave a comment about a specific fansite. A summary of the comments made to a specific fansite was forwarded to the respective administrators.
The second option asked for feedback concerning the fansite programme in general. 91 players left a comment for us there. The top 3 feedback topics that we have identified are:
1. Fansites should not be a copy of tibia.com, but offer something extra for the visitor. Fansite administrators should be creative and original. There are too many fansites that seem alike, each fansite should offer something unique.
2. Fansite items reach too much value ingame. This is a motivation for corruption.
3. Some of the fansites have become outdated. Their administrators or teams should be more active.
We are aware of the fact that these results are not a statistically valid representation of the opinion of the entire community. Nevertheless, the results indeed confirm the criticism concerning the fansite programme that we receive through different channels.
This feedback form was inspired and supported by several fansite administrators. Together we would like to improve the image of the fansites and the fansite programme. Therefore, some of the fansite administrators and we community managers want to invite you to join our conversation about this in the Auditorium.
A big thank you once again to all participants!

Once again it is the time of the year when dragon mothers hatch their eggs to send out their dangerous breed to set the Tibian lands on fire.
From April 16 (server save) until April 23 (server save), almost every dragon lair will be filled with newborn dragon hatchlings.
Sharpen your blades! Sharpen your shiver arrows! Get your avalanche and icicle runes! Show them that Tibians are not afraid of fire, but beware: more hatchlings will follow and get out of their eggs until the dragon breeding season is over again! As a reward for your bravery, every dragon hatchling will yield 25% more experience.
And even though Easter has passed already in the real world, in Tibia five surprise nests are hidden in most of the Tibian cities and with some luck, you might find something nice in them. Furthermore, rabbits, chickens, and silver rabbits are dropping colourful eggs. During this event, you can also buy them from Imalas, Maria, and Bonifacius.
Get ready!

New Products and Store Update Today we have released a patch containing several changes.
New Decoration Items
When bought, these items are directly delivered to you as decoration kits which can be unwrapped inside your house. The unwrapped decoration items are non-takeable and also indestructable.
Please note that with this patch, all non-takeable pieces of furniture, not only these new Store items, can be re-wrapped again. Store items will be rewrapped into decoration kits, which will automatically go into your new Store inbox then, which we will explain further below. Other non-takeable furniture items will be rewrapped into furniture kits, which you will find in your inventory afterwards.
If the re-wrapping should happen automatically, e.g., if you lose your house, both, decoration- and furniture kits will end up in your regular inbox.
Please also note that decoration kits and furniture kits cannot be traded in the market any longer.
Consumables
Further things were added to the Store with this patch. Apart from several runes, you can now also buy health, mana and spirit potions with Tibia coins. They are sold in stacks and come in the same sizes as they are available at NPCs.
We have also added new larger health, mana and spirit potions to NPCs that sell potions in the premium cities. These larger potions are available in the Store, as well.
Please note, though, that resources bought from the Store can only be used by the character that made the purchase, so please pay attention to vocation and level restrictions!
In order to be able to buy such resources with Tibia coins, you may not have a protection zone block or an active battle sign, and you need to have enough capacity for your purchase.
Store Inbox
The Store inbox does not have any limitations as to how many items it can carry, however, only the top 20 items will be displayed to you. To access the other items, you will have to take some out and put them either in your depot or your regular inbox.
Please note that items from the Store will always be either in your depot, your regular inbox, or your Store inbox. You cannot put them into your inventory, and they cannot be deleted or traded. And only items from the Store can be put into the Store inbox.
The Store button, as well as the premium widget, have also been enhanced with some highlighting functions with this patch.
For more details, please have a look at this post.
A new client version is available. The patch will download automatically when you log into the game. You can also download the new stand-alone client version 10.92 here
Have fun in Tibia!
The World is Falling Apart
Olivia rubbed her eyes, but that spinning colourful thing did not go away. She had heard that the sun could do this to you, that - if you wander through the desert for too long, your mind will start playing tricks on you.
She felt really drawn to that spinning thing, but was wary at the same time. Could this be one of those vortexes that more and more people started talking about?
She had listened to stories of hunters in the tavern who had boasted about having entered a different world through one of these things, a world that seemed very disruptive to the mind and body, with shapes and colours that seemed not natural or healthy, inhabited by things that were not meant to be. Only through bravery they could survive this, they had said. They had mumbled something about energy entering their bodies, an unspeakable energy that charged them in an unnerving way and attuned them to the strange realm, enabling them to face the embodiments of destruction itself. They said that they were rescuing our world, as we know it. That they were preventing the very end of existence from entering our reality.
She had not believed any of these stories. They did not make too much sense. She had accredited it all to the booze, and maybe also a bit to the hot desert sun. Now she wished she had listened more closely, though.
That thing... spinning relentlessly just slightly above the ground... It was weird. The energy around it gave her goose bumps. It felt, as if something was tearing the atmosphere apart...
Update Teaser Series About to Start
Spring is only a few weeks old but we are already in a summer mood. Later this week, we are going to kick off the update teaser series for this year's summer update. This time for real and not as anApril Fools' joke.
Considering that previous summer updates usually took place in July, it would still be quite an early start for teasers. This year, however, the summer update will be released considerably sooner than usual due to internal projects that will keep us busy during the rest of the year: Besides the development of the winter update, for example, we will dive into the preparations for Tibia's 20th birthday to make this a memorable and enjoyable event for all Tibians.
Stay tuned!

This year's summer update will take your Tibia experience to a whole new level! The virtual reality hype in gaming has been regaining traction in recent years and we are on board with the Tibia VR Mode!
We are going to add a new graphics option that allows you to truly feel as if you were walking through the Tibian lands! The Tibia VR Mode will create a 3D-like effect in your game window to draw you right into the action. Even the smallest creature might scare you at first glance when seen in 3D so watch out!
All you need to enjoy the Tibia VR mode to the fullest, is a pair of anaglyph 3D glasses with red and cyan lenses. While any of those glasses will work, we are going to offer something special for those who want to spice up their 3D experience even more: the officially licensed Tibia Glasses!
click to see the glasses in action
These stylish 3D glasses feature Tibia's logo on both temples and CipSoft's logo inside. They will be limited to 1,000 pieces. Further details on how to order and what to pay for this cool accessory will be provided within the next few weeks so stay tuned.
It's 2D, and 3D soon!
