A Tale in the Desert 5 Coming Soon

eGenesis is running events which will give players a sneak peek at a brand new mining system which will go live in A Tale in the Desert (ATitD) 5, just a few months away. The "Welcome Back" weekend will start on Friday, May 7, 2010 at Noon and ends Sunday, May 9, 2010 at Noon (all times Eastern). Events will be live on both the main shard and Bastet.

Mining has seen a revamp in every telling. The new system is yet another version of mining, and is unlike the previous ones, in that it has a built in social mechanism and introduces a new mini-game mechanic to ATitD.

"As I've coded this mining system, naturally I've had to playtest it," says Andrew Tepper, President of eGenesis. "Frequently I'll find that I've been 'playtesting' for upwards of a half hour, when I'll realize that I should be coding, not playing!"

For more information on the mining system, please read the most recent newsletter on ATitD.com.

In addition to the sneak preview of Tale 5s mining system, there will be a medley of conflict tournaments and some exciting roleplaying events held over the weekend.
