Latest Neopets News

*sigh* And of course its on a day when one of my daily quests is to fight in the BD!

Maybe they broke it because battledome update incoming?

Pls.

Wow, they are SCHMOOVIN' with these page conversions! For YEARS it was moving at a snail's pace and now we're getting shop, lab ray, battledome and more all in one week?

For once I'm actually excited about a page update. The way you got to select a pet from the Barracks during the plot was SO much more convenient than in the actual BD and I'm glad to see they finally changed that.

Links to the training schools right at the BD is also nice. Even the supposedly "secret" training school which is kinda funny.

dang, the whole page is broken for me; the text and images are spread about the page inappropriately. Blast!!

YEAAAH!!! Three cheers for all this ''mobile friendly'' implementation that actually kills usability!!! You're on a roll, TNT

The battledome looks awful, horrible, with so many empty spaces. Have they forgotten they're a website and not a mobile app?

Guys, the Continue button seems to be back up

Me when I get the news out but I also just want to flex my BD pet and set

I see they removed the "Featured Challenger" feature that never fruition. Even though its gone I do hope they plan on doing more stuff with the BD such like that (notably, and at risk of sounding like a broken record, Defenders of Neopia; heck both the BD expansion for the new TCG and the Void Within (including the epilogue comic) featured them & their villains). Not to mention the Void Within's Wave Mechanic was actually a pretty neat idea and hope can be implemented elsewhere.

Also wouldn't mind more battling events. One idea: A modern rendition of the Faerie League. Maybe have Aethia disappointed and ashamed of herself and the Faerieland was so easily swatted aside she decides its time to start strict training; if they want to make it easy on themselves just repeat what was done with the Obelisk War, instead of Factions you join a Basic Faerie Element. I can go on but I think you get the idea.

Speaking of Obelisk War, could always add new Factions to that. They could even use the excuse with the how unprepared everyone felt, as well as how the Oracle nor the Factions helped, some lands decide its time to demand the Oracle offered its assistance/power if something like the Void happened again. The Oracle decides to let the lands have their own factions, maybe even allowing some of the current Factions to leave (if offered I wouldn't be surprised Sway and Thieves Guild decide having their operations so open isn't worth it and bolt).

I'm casually hoping that the updated BD means we might, just maybe, see another boost to the strength and defence caps in the not-too-far future. I know it hasn't been *that* long since they were last raised but I was surprised they didn't go to 1000 then and I'm a little disappointed they still haven't raised it to 1000 now.

I reeeaally need them to center everything... parts of the battledome being aligned left is driving me nuts. Lol

Can they just stop pulling on wires? XD

I had no Idea they were revamping the battledome.......

... though from what I can see, not much of a revamping, but just recycling TVW Barracks format, which Is not bad given you can edit your equipment that way.

Also, they are kinda DECADES TOO LATE INTO ADDING those trainning school widgets Into the battledome

I know this is such a silly minor thing but..
The order of the training school links is bothering me
You typically start at the KI school, then move on to the MI school, then the Ninja school.
The link to the KI Academy being in the middle on the BD page is annoying me more than it should

cant even select between 2 challengers and multiplayer whats going oln

@biediep: YES! I found that a silly order too! XD Also.. Why does my pet need to take his clothes off before going into the Battledome, only to put them back on before the fight begins? Is that some kind of inspection he did not sigh up for?

@apophis324 looool like some kind of concealed weapon search Making sure they aren't carrying more than 8.
