Gameplay Updates:
Artificial Mir II is now transitioning to Open BETA testing. With our first major patch roll out we’re looking to open the gates and allow more people to experience the game we’re rebuilding. After months of hard work and dedicated testing, we’re moving much closer to having a stable and balanced game environment so we think it would be good to let new players into the game. They may try things our existing testers haven’t even thought of and bring valued feedback to our development team.
Since development to Open BETA has been a while in the making, various players are 40+ levels ahead and therefore we feel the game in its current state is due to be wiped in the initial Open BETA stages, to allow a balanced experience to all newcomers as we launch.
Although there is a whole host of undocumented changes, and adjustments, from now on we will try our best to include patch notes and updates as often as possible.
Currently, all the changes are back-end and no client updates are required, so hop in and enjoy!
We will be referring to this release as 0.1.0. Latest updates and changes:

We’re currently in a status of closed testing. The game server has been online for around 3 weeks and populated for around 2. A number of players have already joined and after 100s of hours of development and game time, together we’ve made a lot of progress.
We’re now much more confident with what we have and the direction we’re going to take, and therefore our next step is increase our public exposure, without full Open Testing. This means feel free to invite anyone you want to play, and feel free to mention us anywhere you like.
At the moment we are somewhere betweeen 2.3 and 2.6 comparitively to original game versions, with a few twists.
Over the next few weeks we’re expecting a number of reboots in implement various software and hardware upgrades. Our next major patch will be version 0.0.3, it’s expect within the next week and will require manual lite client patching in order to get in game. We will be posting more on this soon.
