I think after they dropped the price on most mid/high tier packs Aristocrat got lowered to 850 Euros.
@Prometheus are these Aristocrat packs going to continue to be available until launch? Or are there only a few slots you guys are planning to sell?
The price has always been 850 eur, only once (during a general pack sale) we sold a couple copies for 750 eur 
We are just selling a few copies now, we might sell others once we release new continents

So with respect to the previous test where we were able to build a home and put crafting tables in it (and a fireplace of course). Outside of these items, is there anything extra in this launch that we can expect or that you can provide us? I.E. different or more crafting options/tables? More enchanting items?
@Specter has already replied on the nodes (not implemented yet), but there are actually a few new items you can craft - i.e. all the advanced wood stuff: club, quarterstaff, shields, mage staffs. We'll reveal everything in the announcement post
@Zori said in Bummer for me: "Hello Governor! A few city-claiming tips for you...":
given with what @Prometheus has said about the size of large cities, it looks like the entire population could easily fit in one city right now
Well well well, there are actually about 1,500 players with Alpha 2 access, let's not exaggerate 
@Logain said in City Claiming Has Launched:
How many slots did a large/small city provide again? And can more people than the number of possible slots sign up for a city on the website?
There is no fixed number of slots, the amount of citizens a town can have depends on the number of personal land parcels you have placed in it. A 2x2 parcel raises the cap by 2 citizens, a 3x3 by 3, a 4x4 by 4.
The numbers you see on the web page (5, 15) are the minimums required to start a city (yeah, that's a bit confusing).
Hi @Dordolio! Let me explain to you why things work this way in Fractured (which is not only about avoiding the P2W mentioned by @GorTavaro and @Zori).
You have to forget the idea of a classic MMO city that is populated by NPCs, where at most the NPC shops can be owned by players (like in Albion Online).
In Fractured, cities are the places where players actually live. The land claims in the wilderness you've seen so far are going to be used only by those who really want to live by themselves, we expect most players to claim a private land parcel in a city and build their home in it.
NPCs in cities will exist, but their role will be limited - most of the work will be carried out by players... and you really can't be in a city without players, since to rank it up and unlock new technologies you need both prestige and citizens. The highest rank for a city (30) requires 100 citizens, specifically.
Also, I see you've decided to stick to a large territory, which requires 15 players to be started. If that looks like a high number, it's because you haven't grasped how large a large city is - if you didn't have to make roads, you could stick 300+ buildings in it! Since you have to build roads it's probably half that, but you get the idea. Once the game is well populated, we expect 100-200 players to live in a large city and 25-50 to live in a small one 
Hope that made it clearer!

@Diox I don't want to spoil your fun but this is the English forum please adress your topic either in English or in the Spanish forum section in Spanish.
That's fine, it's a post for a town for Spanish speakers and there's no dedicated sub-forum in Spanish for that

@EssAater said in Dont have acces to dev updates forum:
dont have the special dev forums and stuff that come with the package i got
Fixed, apologies for the inconvenience
It’s live, and it’s not just a website game: you can start Alpha 2 – Test 3 being already a citizen or the governor of a town! Surprise!
Also, the launch of Alpha 2 - Test 3 has officially been postponed to July, more community management is coming and missed foundation titles are being restored.
Enjoy Fractured!
