You can find some of that information (and plenty more) hinted at the news article describing the different sub-races.
In short, yes, different races have different passive and active 'specials'.

@rofus said in Lich Transformation unlocked!:

We need to get more people into the community to reach the rest of the goals(...)

Since that continues through 2018 according to the funding page, there's a good chance that pre-alpha feedback/publicity might lure a few additional backers to pledge their support (maybe so that they can join Alpha 1). The part of it that's not going to be NDA, that is.

@specter said in pre alfa date ?:

The pre-alpha is being postphoned to November.

Could something like that be made official and posted in a news statement, just so people are aware and even better yet, including the reason ; )?

I wholeheartedly agree with @EvolGrinZ and @Mazikar , this is too early in development to worry about balancing.

As nobody has mentioned it, the combat is supposedly more strategical and a little slower in Fractured. At least that was stated as a goal, if they are going to achieve that remains to be seen.

I like the idea of different 'visible look', depending on alignment, but then again, that is something you can change, so you could simply change your look and it would be a bit meaningless?

Welcome to Fractured!
I hope you're going to enjoy yourself and the game!

Congratulations to all winners!
And thanks @Prometheus for your constant efforts!

Neat! And congratulations to the developers!
Hmm... I wonder if I should actually consider playing as human now...

(...)However, I don't think anyone in the top 100 is considered toxic right now(...)

Odd, I was sure he mentioned two names at least. Then again, I could be wrong!

@dcccxix said in A quick recap about the foundation and its future:

(...)they'll have a headstart with 3200 more points for reading newsletters(...)

Ambassador and engagement wasn't there at the beginning. It would be enough to get one engagement and one ambassador 'win' to even out that gap.
