Pre-Beta Preparations

Last Wednesday we placed our server in a datacenter (EvoSwitch) in Haarlem (near Amsterdam), more info and photo’s can be found in THIS topic.
Preperations
At the moment we are finalizing the battle system (player vs. player) and testing the pre-beta worldmap.
Battle system
The core of the battle system is done the only thing that is left is requesting and accepting PvP battles. You can send a battle request by clicking on the player and than selecting “Battle” in your PokePhone. The other player will receive a message that he/she has got a battle request, when the player accepts this request the battle begins.
(Pre-Beta) Worldmap
From what we have seen so far the cities and routes are looking pretty awesome, if I may say so. Don’t expect any cities like the ones in the original pokemon games, they will have new names and are much, much bigger!
Pre-Beta sign-up is still open! Sign-up in this topic on our main website.

The most important part of the game (gameplay wise) would be the battle system and for releasing the pre-beta we are eager to build this is good as possible. For damage calculation we will be using the same formula used in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl and I can tell you… it’s a bitch!

Total Damage = (((((((Level × 2 ÷ 5) + 2) × BasePower × [Sp]Atk ÷ 50) ÷ [Sp]Def) × Mod1) + 2) × CH × Mod2 × R ÷ 100) × STAB × Type1 × Type2 × Mod3
