Most of our focus pre-launch has been going over the basics and improving the client in general. It would have been silly of us to concentrate purely on end-game content when there were so many things lacking. Our client is one of the most polished and feature-heavy available. You won't find any of these changes at any other server. Below you will find information about some of our new features and changes to the user interface.
Quest Emoticons
Quest Emoticons allow players to find and acquire quests much more easily. We've always felt it was difficult to see which NPC had quests available and who to speak to for certain parts. Icons display above the NPC's head if he/she has a new quest for you, is a NPC you need to speak to in order to continue a quest or is a NPC which ends the questchain and rewards you.
Party Finder
You can now view available parties within your level range on the Community section. It tells you information about the Party leader, amount of Party members, Party level, average level of Party members and the zone the leader is in. By clicking on the Party leader's name it automatically adds a whisper to the leader, so you can ask to join.
In the Party options, players can choose whether they want their party to be public or private. By setting your party to private it won't display on the Party finder.
Achievements
Achievements are a way for players to keep track of their progress, skill, and accomplishment. Players can earn achievements by completing quests, killing monsters, earning items, completing dungeon adventures and lots more. They offer fun challenges and satisfy goal-oriented players. They can be viewed on TitanVault, aswell as see what achievements players have unlocked by viewing their player page on the vault.
Clan Contribution
Clan Contribution displays how many clan points you have collected for your clan. You can also click on a clan member's name on the clan member page to see how many clan points they have collected. In the picture above I have collected 5 clan points for my clan.
Friend List Status
Players are now able to change their online status. This is then displayed to all their friends on the friend list. This isn't automatic, so players can choose whatever status they wish.
Second Skillbar and Chatbox
The second skillbar is disabled at default and can be turned on through the new game options. The hotkeys are ALT+F1-F8 (ALT+F4 won't close the client) The chatbox now has a Shout tab which can be used to filter messages to only display Shouts. By clicking the Whisper tab it will automatically add @ into the chatbox (it previously didn't do this)
Improved Clan Create Window
The clan creation window now displays 3 rows of icons, this was done so browsing through the many new icons would be easier.
Bigger Quest Window
New Game Options
Players can now easily change the font size, enable anti-aliasing, enable the second skillbar and choose whether to display the new Quest Icons. Due to lack of space, we had to put some options on the Sound tab but we may look at improving the appearance of the game options later.
HELP Section
Improved Union tab
Fixed PAT icons
The PAT icons now display in correct positions. The cart accesory icon used to display below the wheel icon.
New Key Shortcuts
ALT+U = Removes/adds the user interface (exactly like the /noui command)
ALT+SPACE = Self Target
ALT+F1-F8 = 2nd skillbar keys, ALT+F4 doesn't close the client
Misc
Raiders in Stealth mode will not be visible on the minimap in PvP zones.
The selected friend will now show in blue instead of yellow on your friends list.
