Erepublik Rising: An Overview

Day 947, 11:49 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by The B

So, Erepublik Rising was open to everyone today. Through all the hype, let's have a look to see if it is a good as the insiders say. For bigger images, click on the links below them.
This is based on the beta, not V2, so don't say "oh they'll change that!"

Home

Very disappointing, the only change marked in red (happiness and wellness). A few changes for the names of links but nothing significant.

Profile Page

Better than the homepage, although the close up avatar is unneeded. Nice and easy to navigate, and not too many tabs.

My Places

An interesting view of some random place that bears no resemblance to anywhere. But it looks shiny so that's okay. A 24-hour calender presumably shows your 'time management'.

Company

Looks much better than the current company page. Again, easy navigation and shiny interface. Pity about the gold boosters ¬-¬. To be picky, the translation could be better (it makes some of the boosters a little misleading).
I worke😛

Training Grounds

Lana, who looks like she's had dodgy plastic surgery and an awful haircut, greets you here. The usual come up- how many hours to train, what skill to enhance, and boosters.
I traine😛

Unexplored territory here, but it is everything you would expect.

Is it just me who is picking up dirty things in what the women are saying?

Last Stop: Residential District

Great- sexy neighbour, easy interface as alw-
Wait-



1.5G to sleep admins? You must be crazy...

After that, that's it. Downtown looks like this:

Battles to come later.


Overall, this looks to be an interesting experience, but there's something missing. I don't know what. But please admins remember:

That is all.
