I like everyone of them too

Wow! So many changes! Oh boy oh boy how I can't wait to play with my best friends!
We're going to have so much fun! 

[NotoriousSMALL]

sooooo many changes ive been waiting forrrr yesss
I'm glad a lot of this is finally ironed out like the movement, how spells work (and the cooldowns), and of course the loot so everyone isnt scrambling like vultures trying to pick it up

[McClaw]

Added: Loot can only be seen by the player it is for. If multiple players attack a monster, then all players will receive their own loot chest

Nice!

Added: Monsters can now speak

Interesting.

Fixed: Flying now uses a small amount of energy

Interesting.

Added: The Book has been added.

That will need checking out. (Check out -- book -- I made a funny!)

Ah, that sounds like an official technical term.

Added: Crystal Kingdom Fair

Looking forward to exploring it.

Added: New Heartland additions

Anticipation!

(three new quests)

Score!

Added: New Movement System with strafing support

Time to check the controls.

So many door prizes for "just a party"!

[Navydivea]

Added: The Book has been added.
That will need checking out. (Check out -- book -- I made a funny!)

[GreenTab]

Let the the hype begin 

• Added: Monsters can now speak


• Added: Enemy Ponies can speak

[Klioda]

Woow, impressive! I can't wait .

[BliSer]

15 new spells, huh? That's a lot!
I wonder if they will be on the Skill Bar and will we be able to move them around the Skill Bar to make the most used spells easier to access?

IIRC that was implemented a long time ago. Though you can't swap abilities,you can move them on the empty slots.

Hmm... I can recall I could pick up an icon from skill bar but I didn't know where to place it since I thought the only way to scroll skill bar is by clicking on arrows above it. Or because my mouse wheel broke.
I'll try to move icons to empty slots this time. Thank you!

[aaronkid14]

Looks like you guys are doing great work! Glad to see so many new changes and bug fixes! Keep it up! And I'll see you at the open server party on the 16th! Can't wait! 

[Tiger Eye]

Awesome changes and updates!!! I can't wait to go to Sugarcube!! And try every change in our Equestria!!!

[Vapid Pixel]

Looking forward to the weekend!  Can't wait to see all the new stuff you guys have been working on!

[Particlemane]

Added: New Sugar Cane Corner Interior

That is a fair change.

Added: Crystal Kingdom Fair

This is also a fair change. (Sorry, the pun was not intentional at first, but it is now.)

Added: Crystal Kingdom Night Music
Added: Crystal Kingdom Castle exterior lights

New musics and eye candy is always exciting to me.

Added: New Heartland additions

Oh my flavors! Yes!

Added: Better Night Lighting

Again, eye candy is always nice.

Fixed: Can once again jump and teleport on the Cantermore grass

Good, that was a little annoying.

Fixed: Fixed holes in the Heartlands Terrain
Fixed: Fixed holes in the Cantermore Terrain

Bu-bu... but... but how am I supposed to get outside of the map now and jump into space? Or did you mean "fixed" as in: we added more holes back in?

                   Maybe? Anypony? No? Just me?

                                   Okay...

Fixed: Fixed Floating Objects in The Heartlands

[CoolSonicFan]

aww, i loved going outside the map, it was fun...i wonder if i can still teleport outside the invisible barriers in sweet apple acres

[Cyan Spark]

I live for the moments where the wiki turns out to already have some information about the upcoming Open Server Event before it's released
Straight and Narrow quest: http://legendsofequestria.wikia.com/wiki/Straight_and_Narrow
Tension system: http://legendsofequestria.wikia.com/wiki/Combat_(gameplay)#The_Tension_system

[White Pony]

I noticed a couple additions that might prove interesting.

Under [shadow=red,left]Combat[/shadow]:

[*]Added: The Tension System (Spell can either anger or soothe a monster)
[*] Added: New monster detection system. ... ... You can now sneak up on monsters.

[NotoriousSMALL]

Really excited to see the tension system finally make its debut. Makes since that its added in the alpha update.
And the new scc interior, i was always thinking how it was slightly inaccurate so hopefully it is more accurate this time, so im excited for that too.


Just all of this is super interesting, cant wait to play.
