Darn Blimps! *fistshake*

If you’ve been on the server in the last couple of days you may have noticed an abundance of cranes gracing downtown Ilmarinen. There’s no reason to be alarmed! We’re simply giving downtown a little bit of a facelift!

When originally built, Ilmarinen city centre was only ever intended to be a small collection of skyscrapers, but it has since evolved into the place people want to be to meet up and hang out; the cramped streets and closed spaces were not conductive to the social atmosphere that has evolved. The regenerations intend to change that.

Ilmarinen city hall and one empty skyscraper have been destroyed to make way for more wide open spaces and gardens, including the new Darn Blimps Hall of Fame and a memorial to the Battle of The End. The city hall is currently pending reconstruction at a location nearby.

The Spawn Zone and Update Square are also going to undergo changes soon, with the latter already having been merged with the docks surrounding it.
