It's been threee years since we had any new item to create at the alchove, I wonder why.. What's the point of even having the philosepher store anymore if you can't do nothing new with those items? I get that new players might want older items so there's still a demand for tokens , tints and layers but I'm relatively new and there's nothing more for me to obatain, I can't even imagine how disappointing this is for older players. Is this something that is gonna be implemented again or did the staff decided to just quit making new alchove items? I've been on hiatus for a while and maybe I missed the announcement, but I was really hoping to see something new come up for Pandemic and I am very disappointed now that the event is basically over and nothing was released =(
EDIT: and the academy for worst timing ever goes to.... :°°°°°D
I'm more than a little disappointed by this. I love alchemy, and I felt a bit let down when there were no new items last year, so I thought it was almost guaranteed that we'd get some new things this year. Unless there's a last-minute release (new zombie foods were quite late coming out, so I'm still holding out hope), it looks like it's just not happening again. I know it's only a peripheral part of the event, but it's a shame that it seems to be essentially forgotten.
I have to agree, it is a shame that new alchemy items seem to have been overlooked again. I was also hoping something might be released for this years Survival but I guess not :(
Some other main shops suffer from the same thing. Sable Smithy and Defend & Conquer come to mind. Probably more, but I don't keep superclose tabs on the shops any more.
Going to be salty here, but who else isn't surprised that a feature was added, was briefly updated once or twice after and then promptly forgotten? :/
It hasn't been overlooked. :) Survival isn't over, just keep your eyes open!
The problem was that the Alchemist was broken (in a very odd way that took us ages to figure out exactly what was the issue), and Grace fixed it for us this year (you might've noticed the page looks a tad different now style wise). We've already got plans for getting some Alchemy items out for each holiday in the future for our Zombie friends. ;)
I'M PUMPED, THOUGH. Even if I had to ruin the surprise of our "big finish" aka hello alchemy.
Ooooh. Good news ! I look forward to it. I too had been disappointed we'd not seen anything for the Alchemist yet.

and I are very excited about it. :) We've both brainstormed a few holidays ahead to make sure items are consistently going to be showing up there, along with keeping the Underground going in general.
I liked the alchemy shop and noticed last year there was nothing new added but this year I completely forgot about the feature. I wish things didn't get neglected to such extremes on here :/
Edit: Happy to see that it isn't neglected! I hope there are some new goodies each holiday :)
It's really exciting to know there will be items beyond survival there. I mean a zombie needs some stuff all year around and not just during survival. ;)

:P Well, I'm happy I've been proved wrong. GG, and , nice to see that the old stuff isn't forgotten! Hopefully some of the other, older shops will see new stock soon.
Well, that's cheered me up! It's also great to hear that there's going to be more stuff throughout the year rather than just a survival-contained thing. Good for keeping us on our toes!
I had seriously considered started an identical thread, but I thought no one (staff) would pay attention to it. I'm so glad you did so we know that staff HAS been listening to our moans and groans and doing something about it! :)
YAY! This is wonderful news! I AM SO EXCITED! :D
OMG, were you just waiting for me to make this thread and then BANG! hit me with those new wonderful items???? ahahah, thank you!!!!! I've been hoarding tokens for two years, now it's my moment to shine!!! :°°°°D
I really did have it on the schedule to release these today, haha. I saw the board and was like well the secret is out DARN. I've even used different levels for the items, too. :) SO YOU ALL WILL HAVE TO CRAFT YOUR LIL HEARTS OUT FOR THESE
Maybe the mutation is making me telephatic!! [Img]http://i.imgur.com/1o0qYo2.jpg[/img]
But no, seriously, thank you!!!! I really wanted to see something new there ?
What level is the Mossy Underground Special Gel ? O-O It's the only one refusing to come to me and it's upsetting.
