They can't all be winners. We'll get our big update soon enough, although whether or not that one's going to have the things any particular person is looking forward to in it is anybody's guess.

Had me excited when I saw the server was to reboot, now I am disappoint. Back to waiting I guess, nothing better to do, other than stare at npcs with there new threads.

How troll-worthy of them >.> I was waiting all month for an awesome update, and this is what we get.. :(

Yes I CAN PUT WINGS ON MY Sala Gear =) Wooot <3 this update and no more snow hell ya.

OH GOD DAMN IT. So much hope for the Year of the Dragon update lost just now ;-;

PREPARING TO LAUNCH SPIRAL KNIGHTS

No it won't. Winter is gone from haven, not from lockdown.

New lieutenant Vaelyn really rocks (plus now there's hope for those who crave for dual wielding).

You could already see it with the Winterfest update.

Or... or... or....

Focus on things that matter.

The chroma change is understandable for the dragon wings. I can see why winter would end.

The NPC change is a waste of our donations and all of our time. We all should be thinking like this guy:

"no crimson order update? -_-"

Instead of praising new NPC graphic changes.

We aren't necessarily expecting them to throw up some content update - that is ridiculous, they only need to be making that their main focus / coming up with ideas or god forbid look at our ideas in the suggestion foru... I mean graveyard 2.0 -.- We have patience, but that patience goes away when we are given updates such as these. And our patience is stabbed in the back when we are given a marketting scheme like the shadow lairs.

And there are also other important things that take priority over NPC graphics and buffing 1 and 0 star items like gun / gun armor balancing.

Mika on forums?
OMG THE END IS NEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mika in LD?
OMG THE END IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You ignored the issue of gunslinger hats for this!?

Where the heck are these reskinned NPC's anyways?

This is insulting honestly.

Can I ask any of you to.....

GIMME A SCREENSHOT OF THE UPDATED NPCS.

I CANNA FIND 'EM NYWHARE!!

I logged on and see that SK is updating, got super excited about the dragon wings, and then the announcement made me disappointed. Oh well, I'm sure it's coming.

Which NPCs were reskinned? I haven't actually looked yet.

NPCs had swords on there backs before the update. I don't see anything new about the the NPCs. Either they missed part of what they intended to load for this update or we have another Secret #10 of Nick to look for...

LAAAAAAAAAAAME!

The fountain water noises did not return!

Wumums?.. read the announcement again. Then read your post. You don't make any sense.

Yes, they were letting us know that they were reverting the winter theme, but why would they say, quoting again, "Some NPC Knights have received an art update" if they did not actually update any of the NPC Knights? That is a pretty specific statement.

In Spiral Spy there are new models for lieutenant Vaelyn and agent Kora. Both looks ok, especially Vaelyn.
I haven't been to the Core yet after update so I can't confirm if Vaelyn really has different model.
Kora, as far as I know, is visible only at the crash site, when you start new character. I don't have empty character slot so I can't create new knight to confirm it.

Also there's new model for Warden, but Wardens in Haven and Moorcroft Manor look same as before update. I haven't seen Warden in Emberlight and the one at the Core after the update yet.

Also there's new tunic-like dress for (my guess) female NPC. None of the female NPC (like Kozma or Greta) is wearing it yet.

EDIT:
Just a though. Agent Kora may be main NPC involved with mission system when it will be introduced. It would make sense since she's the one providing us with info on boss levels and such. It would explained why such "cameo NPC" has been upgraded.

The fire in fsc is quite a bit toned down, and the fireballs and polaris electric balls are tighter. I imagine we will discover quite a few more changes in teh scenery in visual effects apart from characters.

The amount of time and effort it would take to simply re-texture each Gunslinger hat would probably come to about an hour to do a decent job, I can do it myself but it would only appear on my screen. Unless their completely remodeling each hat I see no excuse for not doing something so easy but has been requested so much, I really would appreciate an explanation to why they haven't done it or a promise that it will be done soon.

It took them forever to change the blizzbreaker and blazebreak helmets so changing gunslinger art is going to take forever too.

So the new models in the files didn't actually get used? I'm getting the feel someone messed up the update lol Expecting a bugfix within a day or so displaying the new models.

Update also seems to have confirmed the Crimson Order is still way off.
