Retiring GhostCraft

    Hi all,

    I'm sad to announce that one week from today (March 29, 2019) we will once again be retiring GhostCraft to the garage.

    We're doing this for a combination of reasons that have been true for a while now: (1) a lack of popularity, (2) a lack of developer availability to dedicate to the mode, (3) current quality of the mode.

    As with all games in the garage, the source code and maps for GhostCraft will remain available to the development team, and it's possible that we will see a return of the mode in the future - although no such return is planned at this time.

    I advise that you play GhostCraft this week while it's still available.

    Aw, poor Ghostcraft.
    Well, at least it won't sit there gathering dust. Now it'll sit in the Garage... gathering dust :(

    Eh, it's just annoying to start up games with only 1 friend. There's only one map you can play and it's too big. I think this is good. It means people won't see a gamemode that's super unpolished. Now, hopefully the next news that comes up on the front page is either an Anni update or maybe something on Gold Rush!

    I'm sad to see it go, I never got to see ghostcraft in its peak before it got garaged the first time, so at least it came back for a while so I got to play it at all. I'm still sad to see it go though :/
    Oh this is unrelated but there is actually 2 maps that you can start with 1 other person (rising and vault_gate)

    finaly the time a dev spend into gc should be spend on a mta update/fix (there just need to be a few config changes ...)

    Slaughter's not going to get removed because it's still not dead (more active than MTA xd) and is still quality, while not that complex (like only one bug I can think of that effects gameplay, and that one is only performed intentionally). While it doesn't have a dev that's only one reason out of the 3 that are listed for this game removal.

    MTA won't be put into the garage because it has a dev.

    Unpolished! That gamemode was flawless, sad to see it go. I'm always down to play.

    Oh, one more thing. It would be cool if staff organized a "last week game" event where they gave like a 2 day notice of the game or something at a specific time and everyone could join and have fun. Even if it doesn't have anything special, just having a lot of people join at one time would make it awesome and give a bit of nostalgia about how GC used to be.

    You... DO know that fixing bugs and rebuilding a game to benefit high level players is harder than it seems... right?

    will we get any type of xp compensation for our lost xp purchases in ghostcraft? or do we just lose the classes we may have brought?

    All purchases are for the lifetime of the game.

    If/when GhostCraft returns you should expect to see your same purchases there.
