well the game is presented in isometric view so you'll rarely see any face customizations. you'll be wearing armor/gear so I doubt you'll see your skin/fur that often. I can't see them doing much because you won't see that much of your character.
now, you could admire your character on the character select screen...
I'd like to see Character Slots in the cash shop. I understand it might already be intended to be there but if the base game includes 3 slots (enough for 1 on each planet) then could be expanded to say 20 slots total (so 17 purchased in some manor). That should be enough for the first 5 years of the game. Then it could be increased to 50.
Yeah I hate having to sit in LFG chat for 4 hours finding people.
If DS doesn’t make one someone will make a site for it or one of the few Destiny sites will add it to theirs.
While in the Summary of Q&A we started talking about the Guild limitation and figured it deserved its own thread, so here it is.
GUILDS:
Guilds are planet-based. In order to be a member of a guild, you have to have permanent access to that planet. If you do something that causes you to lose your permanent stay on a planet, for example because you got exiled, you will be kicked from the guild.
- Only Beastman can live permanently on Arboreus so they are the only ones able to join Beastmen guilds.
- Only Humans and Beastman can live permanently on Syndesia so both of them can join Human guilds.
- Demons can only stay permanently on Tartaros, and for that reason can only join Demon guilds.
- Evil Humans and good Humans can't be part of the same guild.
- They might change it if it's too complicated or the community wants more freedom.
@Prometheus [source] @Jetah @Benseine Fractured is a sandbox but one with a strong lore and racial characterization, which comes with several unique design choices. That being said, as I've also mentioned in the streaming, perhaps these restrictions will change or will go away as a whole. Alpha will tell!
I'm under the belief that the game is a true sandbox and there shouldn't be any limitations in guild membership or that membership should be limited by the players. This allows trade guilds to coexist with races to help trade. This allows RP guilds to accept and release members that don't keep a certain alignment, etc.
To me if a guild wants to start the game as evil and after a few months or year decides to swap to neutral they couldn't do that under the current vision. They'd have to drop out, disband the guild then start a new guild with the old name while their members change from evil to neutral. A guild couldn't have a 'death squad' either.
I'm just seeing more theme park limitations with this decision.
stick to the pve planet, where the Beastkin live, and it'll be pretty easy. but if you wonder in the wrong parts during an invasion you'll probably be killed.
After reading @Target 's response I'd settle on the guild master decided by settings:
Maybe these could be combined so you can offer Planet Race and Strict Alignment. Or Strict Race and Any Alignment
Allowing the Guild to decide how it wants to function is more sandbox.
VIP won’t be consumed until the game is live.
There were a few post about it already, search bar can find them if you need a source.
one reason i'm asking for asteroid-dungeons, as the dungeons could change as often as you enter them.
the ttk is faster in testing than it will be in life. I assume the run speed is faster too.
i haven't seen too many professional gamers use 5$ mice. there's a reason the mice are better (buttons aside).
mice are a once purchase too so it isn't as though you're spending 50$ every month for a new mouse.
i have an Orbweaver which now I can't game without.
@agracore
a steampunk spider would be sweet though i'd have to steal it from a human, but no problems there 
I'll guess you're one of the people that believe humans can't see beyond 60 fps.
Mice, mouse pads, frame rate, refresh rate, input lag all make a huge difference in the competitive scene. Sure your average (or below) player wont notice it but it's there.
you don't have to continuously hold buttons down in click to move, so your hand won't get tired and you won't suffer any pauses while moving
i don't have that problem with my Orbweaver.
You can play Spiral Knights, if it's still running, to see how an isometric game with WASD movement works
. I didn't have problems with aiming where I wanted and moving with ranged or melee.like I said it's been answered
when it's up, they'll tweet it, post it on kickstarter as an update, send an email, and post it on these forums.
i disagree. i have had better guild mates in eve than other games. maybe your engagement with eve players were bad but mine wasn't.
@thegreatelleon
the video of building a house has logs dropped on the ground which the player picks up and moves to a cart. So I imagine that for many/all harvestables.
all things considered, subscription games are dead. only one sub game has maintained it and the others fell and had to swap to f2p or hybrid. Camelot Unchained is the newest game to be released with a sub and we'll know for sure if it survives or not.
for all intents, this topic isn't about subscriptions.
no.
now with over 9000.1 characters!
crowfall and cu are my current pre-alpha and alpha MMO's. I've seen many people posting negatively about Crowfall and yet it has a low entry to pre-alpha at 50$. I haven't seen that much negativity about CU because it's currently 250 to get into alpha.
Shopping will be done on your planet. Or you’ll be killing and taking gear from enemies. Demons shouldn’t need materials from other planets to craft their gear. But they can use invasions to gather.
there's no xp so that wont happen. i personally hate buy to not play the game items.
If DS doesn't have some type of (cosmetic) rewards in game then it won't survive. This very thing happened in Destiny 2 pre Warmind dlc. All cosmetics were in the cash shop. I made the very post on reddit that mentioned this and there was nothing to 'grind for' because it was just RNG when getting the cosmetic lootbox. Warmind dlc changed it so there are cosmetic rewards not tied to the cash shop and it's a better experience because of it. gonna tag @Prometheus on this paragraph too!
