Inside the payload will be a few special items that players will be able to obtain later on in the month.
I agree that those that are getting outraged or threatening etc. are being irrational and need to cool off but I think you shouldn't automatically dismiss them. Those that are upset are upset because it was over-hyped by you guys. Getting people to solve clues(admittedly voluntarily) and building anticipation for something pretty underwhelming is what's making people indignant. People are concerned about how all this effects them and why they should care about it. Evony going into space is a great publicity piece and all but how does it have a positive impact on the average player? It doesn't really so in the eyes of a lot of players, it's rendered meaningless to them.
Especially when issues such as lag or lack of server merges are taken into consideration as well; it seems like the side-project is diverting resources from fixing issues the players are effected by.
No, I am probably not from your server. Yes, I do feel I can comment in your forum. And yes, I do think flaming on the internet is hilarious to watch. Nor do I require an avatar.
