@jetah Yeah exatcly, because all of us who are playing Humans want to play it because it suits our playstyle. If we had other playstyle we would play other race. Now you come and start telling to change the rules to your convenience. I was just defending ourselves and not telling you to change.

@Finland Nice How about join my guild? https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/419/the-ascension-midcore-pvx-international-english?page=1

I never said I wanted the rules changed. I accept them as they are. But I will try to get on the beast planet to pvp.

@finland said in PK punishment:

@Jetah you have no clue about what s going on albion. Gatherers and pvers are gone there are still few hard core and mid core guilds zergin around fighting for territories or pking. I managed 3 guillds and i have seen more than 400ppl rage quit after few days. Trust me thats not funny when you try to grow a guild or a community

so you're saying the developers didn't put safe timers when zoning in the black zones? they didn't enforce a skill cooldown when you dismount? Outside of those I've read, I've ignored it. Kind of glad I did. It seemed during the alpha/beta the developers started to listen more to the non-pvp players by reducing the amount of yellow, red and black zones. I just found out there's one continent that doesn't have pvp at all. That wasn't the game I signed up for.

@eletze I disagree

• it's in pre-alpha. this means it's more of a technical demo. they ask 'can we do this' then figured out ways to do just that. other effects will be added.
• i love the no minimap. I looked at the cooldown effects and love them. sure seconds would be nice but it's unique and I like it for that. They've already said in a spotlight that the number of skills would be limited. damage number detract from the game (and it's pre-alpha)
• it's pre-alpha. you're expecting some more polished which could be called a beta.

A wolf and a Udoadra are not of the same species, so that could be possible. Anyway, it will depend also on the race, some will be carnivorous and others herbivorous.

Now that is something I like! Where my Dearkin actually can stay herbivorous and will not depend on meat recipes.

Power to the vegans!

deer have been observed eating meat. sorry for your loss.

" @Jetah it's possible I wont wear my best gear or will attack strategically. Odds are someone will see a demon or evil human and run first or try to log quit."

I wont I'm going to use my buff to the best of its advantage ad take from you everything you're worth. I'm happy with my odds and I think most beastmen will be too. It will also be smaller group of human/demons most likely where you'll be zerged by us. Tbh, I'm quite happy for you to try >:D

@tulukaruk They have stated that dying on a different planet you lose your gear and I believe I read that you're teleported out. Might not seem like much of a punishment but when you consider how hard it is to get to another planet in the first place seems decent enough to me.

that's considered home field advantage. but from my perspective going to a 99% pve world means they'll have better gear which is best for acquiring. I might not go solo, I might have a guild or a group or a good sized raid. We might go in with bad gear just to test the planet out. Then come back with our best. Sure we may die, they may die but it'll be fun for all.

@Prometheus Pretty impressed by how good the game looks even in pre alpha state. Is there a twitch link somewhere floating around for fractured?

Will be delivered when we announce the exact time of the first Q&A

@logain said in First Fractured Gameplay Video Released!:

Can you 'define' friendly fire? Normally, the term would indicate that if a third person gets in the line of fire between you and the target, the ray/projectile/hit no longer hits the target, but that third person. How could you do that in a game with free targeting (you can freeze a river, so you need to be able to aim at said river...), while keeping your 'only consensual PvP - mantra'? If I can aim anywhere and deal damage to anything in that line (friendly fire), I could easily kill a Beastman as Beastman?

It means exactly that, but as I've said, you can avoid it by grouping with your friends. If you have a Good alignment, you also can't hurt other players with Good / Neutral alignment - this includes friendly fire. Since Beastmen are Good, they can't hurt each other. It was mentioned in this spotlight :slight_smile:

@Zefireq @Eletze animations and the UI are really temporary, as I've mentioned elsewhere. They will be both remade from scratch :slight_smile: There will be a minimap, too. Same goes for several particle effects. Don't focus too much on the graphics department, it's a pre-alpha!

can we try the game out without a minimap? i think it gimps the players and doesn't have any lore reasons for being there.

might be the place you want to ask in.

@vengu said in Clarification on the target audience:

I've warned Prometheus months ago that there's a good chance the beastmen world will actually become the main PvP hotspot because they'll be seen as carebears. Judging by the comments in the PK punishment thread, this is exactly what seems to be happening. Prometheus talked about some of the measures to make it harder for gankers to gank on Arboreus, but I would like more details about those measures now that it's clear that many gankers are going to make Arboreus their main target. Personally, I wish they would just turn off PvP completely on Arboreus. Fractured would be one of the first sandbox MMOs without forced PvP if players don't want it, giving them the whole PvE sandbox market to themselves. Instead, I got the feeling they rather make the same mistake every sandbox game has made before them, somehow expecting a different outcome.

So yeah, I agree with Logain that it's time for the devs to give us a clarification on the target audience. Is this a game where they want PvE and PvP players to co-exist on different planets, or do the devs envision a game where Beastmen are cattle for the Demons.

For me at least, as i would rlly love to play my healer beastman, it would make sense if Arboreus mas made Pve only (eventually with one or 2 pvpve areas), makes sense that the demon area apart from main hubs would be more pvp oriented, and human area being the mix in between. That way there would be something for every player to enjoy depending on their preference.

what about my preference to do some challenging content on Aboreus as an evil human or demon?

@finland said in First Fractured Gameplay Video Released!:

@jetah if we get invi abilities then we need abilities/consumables to reveal invisible characters. Somehow I will see you

i have a strange feeling you'll be around a month after the game launches then leave.

like, everything you say is anti-pvp.

wtf im 28 and i thought im one of the oldest here

wouldn't be surprised to see people in their 60's.

@fibs said in Are you a PVP or PVE player?:

@jetah I don't like zone or global chat; they're full of idiots and spam bots and they destroy anything resembling immersion. There should be a dedicated party- & guild-finding system and as little opportunity for gold nets to advertise as possible.

It sounds like you have problems with everything that makes a multiplayer game multiplayer.

I block the spam and those that act like children.

@finland said in First Fractured Gameplay Video Released!:

@jetah I have never said to show Dots on the minimap. But ivi must be countered some how like every other spell or I'll start thinking you don't care to balance spells

but you said..

@finland said in First Fractured Gameplay Video Released!:

@target minimap should reveal all enemies in close proximity of you or your party in the minimap. Fow is not for mmo.

so, yes, you did say show dots on the minimap. this is why i don't want a minimap at all. it's an open world pvp game. UO didn't have a minimap, when I played it, and it was awesome!

@lunaria

only problem i have is i'm not on reddit or other places discussing the game. But it does make the forums lively!

i grew my history out!

my biggest grip is that this game is a full loot game. if it were WoW or another game where being killed doesn't mean being looted then i wouldn't care. it's better to make gameplay equal to everyone than grant even a minute amount of an advantage to some people that pay.

people will see these advantages, will see it's a full loot game and will call it p2w regardless how the developers PR their response.

@frequencyzero
HA!

@finland

no it's an open end system. you can sell items, if you wish, you can have goods or ships transported.

https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Contracts

ie you can setup a contract for a beastkin or human to transfer your crate from Arboreus to Syndesia. You want 5 gold as a deposit and you'll pay 2 gold when it's safely delivered to the other planet in 24 hours. A human looks at 2g profit and figures they can do it. They accept the contract and are given a crate in their inventory with a 24h timer on it. The item is unknown to the delivery player. The stargate opens they port through. Mount up (or run) to the city you specify and drop off at the Contract NPC. The person is paid 5g (refund of deposit) and 2g (fee to complete). If the player died and the item is looted, then the thief could break it open. The person that accepted the contract would lose their 5g because they didn't deliver the crate safely.

The item(s) you had might have been worth 2g or could have been worth 15g. the deposit you require is set by you. the reward is set by you. it's possible that no one would take that risk for 2g when other contracts are offering 15g. It could be possible that the person that accepted the contract just breaks the crate. [e] It could be possible for the thief to turn in the crate also if they could. As the crate could have the location, reward and timer on the tooltip.

contracts can also be used to buy items.

Eve Online has illegal market items. The Amarr have no problem with slaves but Gallente hate slaves. So a person could setup a contract to move slaves from Amarr space to Gallente space. Once there the slaves are sold in another contract bypassing the legal market.

Let's imagine that demon horns are illegal on Arboreus but are legal on Syndesia. a human buys some hornes and heads to Arboreus to sell them, they can't place them on the AH/Market so they post it in a contract. You need horns for a crafting ingredient, so you buy the contract. A contract quantity could be any number above 1.

Let's imagine that demon horns are really popular on Arboreus. The human places the horns in various quantity in different auction contracts. The human is able to get the most currency out of their purchase because they're illegal.

You can even place Contracts for specific people or guilds. Lets say you PMd me and I get those demon horns to Arboreus, I can place the contract up specifically for you. Let's say you're trying to corner the market on demon horns and we have a verbal contract for 100 horns a month. I can place those horns up for your guild then anyone with the Market/Trade role can claim them.

@fibs

i can see it as a reproduction of real life. i'll never catch up to my fathers experience and knowledge while he's living.

@Kralith
small advantages are advantages. this is a full loot open world pvp game. knowledge and learning slots all need to be equal.
