After a long absence from the W.A.R. wrestling scene, Harrow Ld is back to land as many Hiroshima Drops in his opponents’ faces as possible and he sure is mad! No sooner is his return to the ring announced than El Gringo insults him by insinuating that his daughter is nothing more than a depraved junkie addicted to pillz and raves put together by the Junkz. It looks like we've got a good wrestling season ahead of us!


Harrow Ld is a legendary character who is only available by carrying out missions connected with him. To obtain this character, you must unlock his last mission before January 20th at 11.59pm (GMT + 1:00).

Hello all,


Since the release of the temporary New Blood and LD missions, a lot of you asked if it was possible to put back the missions you’ve missed so as to gain the mission points.

To answer to this demand, we will allow you to reactivate the expired missions for a price in credits. However, the development didn’t start yet therefore it is not possible to give you another release date than «as soon as it’ll be finished» but you can tell us what you think about this feature.

I’ll explain what we want to do:
It’ll be simple. First, we will add a «Expired mission» tab next to the «Missions completed» one on your mission page.
In this tab you’ll be able to see the list of expired mission and reactivate them for a price equal to the number of mission points they give, divided by 10 and rounded up.

For example: a mission giving 10 points will cost 1 credit, a mission giving 40 points will cost 4 credits. A mission giving 5 points will cost 1 credit (because it’s rounded up).

This system will give the possibility to gain the mission points BUT NOT the mission prizes. To win the LD character you still have to complete the missions before the deadline.

This system will allow you to reactivate all missions you didn’t unlock in time before the deadline, no exception.


Have fun!

“Freshwaaaaater Swabs!”, “Icoooonoclast”, “Blistering Baaaaarnacles”. No, we're not at Marlinspike Hall but in Clint City where Amiral Coco, the parrot, thinks he’s the captain of the Piranas. It has to be said that with his proud bearing, even Lance the cycling champion would find it hard to not feel belittled by him. However, his constant orders are driving everyone crazy, especially when he borrows Ozzy’s microphone to blast them into the ears of the city's inhabitants... In fact, it’s got so bad that they’ve all chipped in to hire Brianna and her flame throwing services so they can finally put a stop to the pesky bird. They’ll be grilled parrot on the menu tonight, believe you me!

For miles around, an almighty din can be heard from downtown Clint City; Lady’s concert is in full swing and the atmosphere's electric. Thanks to Mylka’s ice generator, the singer's transformed the stage into a giant igloo and although the audience is half-frozen, they love it. In fact, the evening would have been an all-out triumph if Leela hadn’t decided to sabotage the show of the singer, who is none other than one of the little vixens behind her accident. Panic and chaos ensued and Belle, who had gone to the concert to spy on Liam, then lost him in the crowd. And nothing could make her madder than that!Get these characters in the shop's packs5 new missions have been added. Click here to see the list of Newblood missions.

Hello all,


After the (chaotic) release of the Standard mode and the first feedbacks, we have taken decisions on several things we want to let your know. We think you will be satisfied with the future improvements we will add first.

• Improvement of the quickbattle system in DTs.

We already made corrections, it seems that the small decks vs big decks problem is far less met. We will keep on working on it until the partition T1/T2 is not a problem any more.

• Penalties on some characters in DTs.

The first 2 points penalties per character are already operational and you can find the list here: http://www.urban-rivals.com/help/?category=9-0
Except for Leader, for the moment there are no penalized Standard characters. It may change, we give ourselves time to analyse DTs.

• DTs divided in two.

Finally we won’t alternate DT’s. We will let you have two DTs at the same time, 1 Standard, 1 Extended. With two different rankings.


• Length of a DT shorten but increase of its frequency.

DTs length will decrease from 1 hour to 45 minutes with a 15 minutes break between each tournament and then you can play again. It means there will be 24 Standard DTs and 24 Extended DTs per day.
To prevent abuses, a limitation of 8 DT credits per day and player will be added (you will receive all other rewards if you play more than 8 DTs).


• Survivor Standard and Deathmatch Standard rooms.

They will be open soon, we are working on an update of the flash game.



Questions you may want to ask:

• The number of CR remain at 5. It might change in the future.
• A PM will be sent to you each evening if you made a top 150 during the day so as to inform you if you have won a collector (or not).
• The timer will be reduced from 60 to 50 seconds again.


Have fun

As well as the rotation of the Standard format, we are pleased to announce that the separation of the Standard and Extended formats in the Daily Tournaments has been achieved!
 
See below for further details of what this change involves:
 
- The two tournaments will be separated in your history according to their deck format. You can find your tournament history at the following address: /game/tournaments/history/
 
- A lottery for players ranked in the first 150 in a daily tournament will now be held for each of the two formats (Standard DT and Extended DT). Each tournament format will have its own prize of 5 CRs that will be distributed according to current lottery game rules. 10 CRs will therefore be distributed every day.
 
- There will also be a jackpot for each tournament.

- However, for technical reasons the two tournaments will take place at the same time (at even hours of the day) 
Happy gaming to you all!

The old QuickBattle system that was put in place for the Daily Tournaments had a few faults that we have tried to correct, notably the impossibility for certain players to find an adversary, and the fact that some players had to fight the same people over and over again. The new system that we have tried and tested was designed to overcome these problems, while maintaining the possibility for all players to participate fairly in the DTs, irrespective of the number of stars contained within their Decks.

Our criteria were as follows:

- A level zone that “recreates” the conditions of T1, adapted to a larger system (a 16-25 star zone) to give T1 aficionados the chance to play in the DTs;

- The chance to fight Decks containing the same amount of stars as the player’s Deck + or – a minimum of 5 stars (see the table for more information), in order to increase players’ fighting opportunities;

- Increased fairness within fights. For example, a player whose Deck contains 23 stars cannot challenge a player with a deck containing 32 stars.

In order to make things clearer for you, we have created a table that summarizes all the fighting opportunities available in this new QB system.

http://www.urban-rivals.com/img/localized/en/matchmaking.jpg

We very much hope that this updated system will meet with your approval. Happy gaming!

Note: Players entering DTs with a Deck of between 8 and 15 stars will be seen as having 16 stars, as far as the Matchmaking calculation is concerned, while those with a Deck of 41+ stars will be seen as having 40 stars.

It's time for Travis Ld to get back to work! And after having stopped off at Fixit Mechanics to turn his new bus into an out-and-out war machine, he’s finally ready to race through the streets of Clint City without a fear in a world. Kolos had just better hold on tight!
Travis Ld is a legendary character who is only available by carrying out missions connected with him. To obtain this character, you must unlock his last mission before December 30th at 11.59pm (GMT + 1:00).

There’s a menace on the prowl in Clint City. Don’t go out if you’re not prepared… Heading straight from the future, Naele is trying to stop the Nightmare clan from turning her into a vampire and condemning her to a life of eternal suffering and bitterness. Be sure not to cross her path if you want to stay alive, nor that of Sprinter’s from the Berserk clan, who’s not at all happy since his transformation. Only Treeman with his force of nature, or maybe Eugene with his crabs can hope to re-establish the balance of power in Clint City!

Hello all,

In order to protect your cards and clintz, if your account is used by someone else without your consent because of a phishing or any other hacking technique, we implement today a new protection system.

How does this system work and what will it change during a sale or a secured trade?

When the transaction has more or less the same value as in the Market (99% of the cases), it doesn’t change anything.
But if the transaction value is different (example: DJ Korr for 50 clintz) then, the new system sends a confirmation email to the «disadvantaged» player.

An email will be sent to the email address linked to your account.
https://img.skitch.com/20121002-e96gq4inre28ackpw3c6kbytu3.jpg

If your account is not confirmed, you will have to confirm it to be able to make the trade or the sale.


When it’s done, your preference page much show this:
https://img.skitch.com/20121002-fq1rs7dkysbxmdy3qd4rqn95qn.jpg

In the email you will receive, a link will send you on a page where you’ll be able to accept or refuse the transaction.
https://img.skitch.com/20121002-pf3jesdbtddjce9328k4ikjs67.jpg

Once the transaction is validated, the trade or the sale can continue, you will have to complete it again yourself.

Good to know: after agreeing to be «disadvantaged» during a transaction with a player, you won’t need to confirm transactions with this same player during one month.
