Ver. Alpha 1.6.4 Transfers its way onto The Apex Predator!

Yes. After a long development cycle, Ver. Alpha 1.6.4 has arrived. Known as the Command Update, this update adds a whole bunch of brand new stuff. Let's get into it.

1. We've made an update to the economy. As you may know, the economy wasn't the best when it came to specific prices. Diamonds were 3x more valuable than emeralds, gold was 1/2 the value of emeralds, and iron was 1/3 the value of emeralds, with the emerald being the anchor. We decided to call our currency the Emerald with a capital E and call it a day. Now we have specific numbers tied to these values. Before you see this, keep in mind there are no decimals, so Emeralds are similar to Japanese yen.

1 Diamond = 300 Emeralds

1 Emerald = 100 Emeralds

1 Gold Ingot = 50 Emeralds

1 Iron Ingot = 25 Emeralds

Keep in mind we usually don't capitalize the "1 Emerald" there. It was to make it look nicer. But now there are specific values to the minerals. So great! How do you see how many you have?

2. We've made a new company called NewATM™ . This brand new company is in charge of keeping your money safe by storing it in a high-security bank account that you have access to by using a NewATM™. Our system ensures that, as long as no one is near you while you're depositing and withdrawing your money, your Emeralds are safe. We have all deductions available, ranging from diamonds to iron so when a shop asks for a certain deduction you're only a few clicks away from your money. Come to Illustria to use our NewATM™'s in our new building!

3. War. Yes, the Infiniland Vs. Spokbleth War is a part of this update, mainly because...

4. We've made a new courtroom after the one located in New Zeropolis was damaged. All Infiniland cort cases will go through this courtroom.

5. The Punish Box in Galatopia has been revamped with all new things to do while you're in prison. Rumors say it feels like a prison server. But that's just rumors, right? Speaking of rumors...

6. The Shop in Spawn has been revamped with a use for the 2nd floor and a place to sit with the Shopkeep! He will tell you rumors he's been told. He'll also give you a honey bottle for your troubles. How sweet of him.

7. Rumors have spread that there have been sightings of big black crystals appearing in towns and some are starting to bulge, almost if its getting ready to blow. There has even been sightings of UFO's around the server. Stay safe in these troubling times. Also, reports say that a certain UFO near Spawn is prepping for something big. It even has some purple goop on it, similar to the ones found on the Challenges Asteroid. Weird...

8. New minigames are undergoing developments and betas. Be sure to check the Minigame Hub regularly for more minigames coming soon.

9. The One Year Anniversary for The Apex Predator is upon us and, with that, a PvP tournament! More details are in the Minigame Hub, more specifically the lectern next to the beacon that holds the Big Island afloat.

10. Some banners have been added to most stations, so if you know a specific banner but don't know the name of your destination, that is a great way to use them! You can also use them to know the banners of the towns, which is very fun to do. Speaking of banners...

11. There is now an area where you can view all the Flags over the generations of this server. With an extensive list of all things flags, you're sure to find one you like.

12. There is now a Wither next to Spawn stuck in a cage. There is also a poem written by a famous poet in the before time in the lectern next to it. Give it a read!

13. You know, we mentioned Illustria without even telling you what it is. Well, here it is. Illustria is a brand new city owned and ruled by me, Infinity Guy, where you can set up shop and grow your business, or live s peaceful existence by making your own house. Land is free for now, but won't be soon. Snatch it while you can!

14. Paradise Town WAS a new town. But it's old now. An island in the ocean, Paradise town is a town owned and ruled by me, Infinity Guy, where land is extremely expensive It is an island getaway, after all. This was the first town I owned, but it's old news now.

15. Spokbleth. A new country. Ruled by SpookyMan. There is a teleporter to Barelwod, the first town of Spokbleth, in the T-Posing Man.

Holy crap. That was a lot of stuff. Some of it was minor, some of it was major. Either way, this update is massive. We hope you continue to love The Apex Predator.

As Always, Stay Awesome.
