RESETTLEMENT UPDATE
It has been one full year since the Frontier re-opened after the impact of War Titan Typhon. On the very anniversary of the impact, the Robots started a new offensive against humans after staying away for years. There have been a lot of speculations of the reasons why; the most popular theory speaks of a field test of a new kind of Robot technology, derived from the notorious Scylla kept locked away under a bunker at Zychion.
The new Scylla-type technology apparently allows robots to evolve, and has so far manifested itself as the Hydra – several times. Brave colonists have so far repelled the hydra seven times, thanks to a superhuman effort by alert intelligence gatherers and brilliant code crackers.
Key intelligence about the Hydra and its Scylla-type technology was handed over from the RX units. It is still not known why the alleged hybrid-robot enemies decided to help humans. Their motives remain a mystery, and CDF would like to remind everyone that any kind of collaboration with the enemy is considered treason.

On Saturday, August 28, one of EU’s highest level miners found the 7th highest ever single loot in a mine on ROCKtropia. Joe Jeff xXSqUaLLXx found 119,001 PED ($11,900 USD) worth of Binary Fluid, a necessary resource for crafting. This is the largest find ever on that particular resource, and also represents Joe Jeff’s largest single loot ever. This also marks the high water mark for a single loot on ROCKtropia, so a number of milestones were reached this past weekend. We hope to get in touch with this uber-looter very soon to bring you the inside scoop. Stay tuned to neverdienews.com for all the latest information from the Rockin’est planet in the Entropia Universe!
Rumor has it that Neverdie’s private stash of weapon designs and descriptions of new resources were reported stolen in a confidential memo on Monday. Though no specific details were released, for obvious reasons, speculation is that new resources may have found their way to ROCKtropia. New, secret weapon designs may also have been taken, according to our inside source, who insisted on anonymity, for fear of repercussions. “I heard that many different weapon system designs my have found their way into the hands of these thieves,” claimed the fearful insider. “It could even be in the double digits!” Our secret source tells us, “The economy of ROCKtropia may never be the same, once these weapons hit the market. I mean, if people got a hold of these weapons, who knows if the native species of dragons, wolves and other creatures on the planet would survive?” More information may be released soon, or perhaps world-renowned gamer Neverdie may try to keep this story under wraps, stay tuned for more information…
