Mimmy gets some ideas why everyone in SanrioTown is behaving strangely.

ripplecloud is amused to see SanrioTown-ers invading mmorpg.com blogs and forums. XD I saw Havel, HKFood, Jules/Kittynator and other familiar well-known nicks, guess who else? ;)… Haha is it because of the “naggy” pink power of BBE?

ripplecloud found clearer pictures of what the prizes look like here.

ripplecloud posted the following points of interest: -

1. Map - for Open Beta, only 2 cities - Paris and London and all the in-between areas - will be open.

2. Pets - will give players more inventory space and, note this BBE, act as “buffs” for the players since pet’s stats affect the player’s stats.

3. Hompy - players will be able to sit on couches, watch Dream Studio videos using the TV, lie on the bed, etc

4. Skills & Levelling - players can choose one of the four Resource Collecting (RC) skills to be their Primary skill and another one as a Secondary skill. This means the remaining skills won’t reach levels as high as the ones chosen. This mechanic forces players to trade resources with each other. RC skills will help increase overall level but not crafting skills.

5. Item mall - Good news for some players, besides real money payment, players also have the option to purchase items using SanrioTown points. Finally we see the use of those accumulating points :D

6. OB/commercial launch schedule - For both Europe and North America, plan to have another Closed Beta for Q3 2008. After that, Open Beta will cover both continents during Q4 and commercial launch will be somewhere around the end of Q4 and the beginning of Q1 of 2009. As for the English speaking Asian regions, Open Beta will begin in 2009 and the commercial launch will follow very,very soon after.

Meanwhile, offline events such as HKO Papercraft, Design-Your-Own-Weapons/ Pet/ Clothes (that could be included in the final product), are being planned to make life more interesting while we wait for OB.
