Alia's Reviews: Feeling Sinister? A New MilMo Update

Now the good folks at Junebud gave Update 51 a different name than my catchy post title...but the new content with this update lets those of the dark and moody bent express themselves with some pretty tough looking gear.  And it all begins with a little lockbox....

The Sinister Lockbox!

When I read up on this new update and started playing to see all the new stuff, I had exactly two thoughts:

• Someone in Sweden must have been listening to my prayers and decided to give us new converters...one of Alia's Favorite Things.
• There was some devilishly smart thinking behind this new update in that it goes a long way to address some of the complaints/problems as of late, but I will get to that later.

Happy 50th Update!

Now that I have recovered from the spring semester, it is time to enjoy myself with my favorite game.  Luckily, just when I need it the most, there is a new game update!  Launched just today, players can celebrate Junebud's 50th Update, by getting another chance at the Sea Festival event from last year.  Being one of those players, I have already begun and have attired myself accordingly.

There seems to be a walrus in the pool at SeaStar Resort who
only answers to the name Morris.  However, he does approve
of my Tactical Pirate look to assist on completing his tasks.

Oh What Shall We Do?

There have been some grumbles, some questions, and even some interesting speculation about the lack of recent updates to MilMo.  Then before the weekend got into full-swing, the always helpful Sara posted in the game forum why we were experiencing the lack of something new to do.  Due to Junebud's development of a game for the iPad, known as Tuff Tanks, the developers are allocating their human resources to getting this interesting and fun looking game ready for release.  (I am still waiting for a hint that we may see this game in the Google Play store, but so far, mum is the word)

Can't Wait, Can't Wait...Can You?

Update 47...coming our way...

Alia's Reviews: Update 46 The Sun Parade

As promised nearly a month ago, I have finally committed myself to writing up my review of the Update 46: The Sun Parade.  A nod to our many Brazilian players, this update is for all MilMo players (both EN and BR) to experience a little of the fun of Brazil's Carnival now matter where in the world you may be.  The Sun Parade Update is the best of what any game update for MilMo can be...a new NPC (Bella), a new limited-time monster, new medals to add to our medal tally, and my personal favorite: a converter! 

Something new has arrived in Seastar Resort...to
transport players to the fun of Carnival!

Guest Blogger: A Day in the Life of Sobe

Ok, so, Sobe had a grand time diving in real life for 4 days……….

When she crawled into Milmo… her hands were shivering, she dropped her V Axe many times.

Hmmmmm that is the effect of Milmo Withdrawal Symptoms….. at least that is what I think Doctor Quack told Sobe.

Sigh….. Sobe had to dive on the day after the release of Carnival Event…… so, she would need to catch up on the event.

But first things first……. Grab my box from home…….=D

Aunty Alianore's Corner, Volume I, Issue 4: Negative to Postive

I will write a review of Update 46: The Sun Parade! in a later post, but for now I want to discuss the very best and slightly not-so-best things about a new game update.  


One thing all MilMonauts love is a game update.  A new update means new quests, new avatar bling, sometimes some new critters to kill, maybe a new island or world area, and if we are very lucky (as is the case of this event) some new medals to earn.  And when a update is launched, an inevitable flurry of activity occurs in game.  You see regular players in and out of the islands pursing the next quest and the more casual players logging back in to take part because they were waiting for something new to do in the game.  In many ways, a new update is like a family reunion of sorts...the return of friends new and old, all back to take part.  Aside from the anticipation of seeing what the new update provides players, it is the reunion that can also make an update something to look forward to.

Distractions for an Unwell Girl

Stuck at home again today with a stomach/flu bug, and the good people have Junebud have so graciously released Update 46 for the EN players!  Aunty A is going to be busy today distracting herself from her the icky feelings by playing and updating the Unofficial Wiki.  Hope you all have fun too!
