I've been playing Salem for the last few weeks.
Their prank resulted in the deaths of a lot of players. Oh Jesus. Let's see..
For one thing the hub town, Providence, is full of killer trees, rabbits, and disease-spreading rats, and is full of a maze of obstacles like barrels and market stalls making it very difficult to navigate.
If you do manage to get to a strange tree in the center of town it apparently offers to take you somewhere interesting. If you accept it dumps you in the middle of the ocean where you will no doubt KO and port back to town, losing everything in your bag.
What else... there are little powder explosives called boomsticks. They typically take a few seconds to explode after lighting them and are meant for removing boulders. Today they detonate immediately after lighting.
Oh, yeah. I almost forgot. When you take branches off of trees it screams. Unfortunately in this game you probably need a few dozen branches to fire stuff up so it gets really loud.
That's all I've found out about so far. I'ma just chill at my base today or go do something else. I carry a lot of crap so I don't wanna lose it to some randumb thing. >.>
Kind of a funny event but I don't like that when newer players came to the forums to complain they got laughed at and made fun of. It bugs me.
