@Phaethonas I see there are a lot of questions regarding PvP and the criminal system on the forums these days. It might be a good thing to anticipate the Spotlight on the topic (which is already planned), since I can't reply in just one forum post - the justice system on Syndesia is quite unique!

12 random online players are PM'd from the court system requesting their presence. they are to serve as a jury while a GM is the judge!

I would like something like that

I don't think that we can see anywhere how many Dynamight Gold we have accumulated. Sure we can just add, but it would be nice to have them at one place. Maybe at the hero profile.

@cawse304 I think Alpha is not a matter of chance. As far as I can recall you can buy yourself into Alpha when the kickstarter campaign starts

I won! haha

@specter and what does "dealing with the justice system" mean exactly? At first I had in mind something in the lines of BDO's karma system, but from your description I get another idea. Something more dynamic perhaps, something player driven even.

Can we get more info for what "lawless" and "lawfull" pvp mean?

Sure, the demon planet will be lawless and will have "lawless" pvp. Perhaps there aren't many things to say in that case. But what about the "lawful" pvp at the human planet? I suppose that would be linked with the "justice system", but that could mean pretty much anything.

@fibs that makes no sense in the context of the concept of the demon planet

@fabiio not to hype.

Never hype.

@finland So you are a casual that wants to pve and doesn't want to die. OK, then why come and play a game that has pvp, open world pvp, PK, and the concept of demon invasions?

If I am a demon that can invade a peaceful pve planet, what do you expect me to do? Farm with you? Of course I will hunt you, I will kill you and I will try to destroy your farm (if that is feasible). Then per the game's gameplay I will be forced to leave your planet and return to mine.

I expect my fellow players to be playing the same game that I am playing and that is a game at which demon invasions are part of the gameplay.

@jetah Most of the demons would not need any convincing.

Imagine a horde of demons running at the beast planet destroying farms, burning, pillaging and killing every living thing.....but cats. Cats are cool

Rean up the @Prometheus post. You are not allowed to destroy everything on Arboreus. Maybe you will be allowed to declare a war to conquest city. Remeber that you will have nothing to kill due to players flee away if they will die like every time they try to do something. So if you care to play too you have to start thinking olso for the other side of the medal

Flee, run I will start chasing you!

lol

And sure, I don't mind, I will kill and destroy what is available/allowed, for as long as I am allowed.

But a demon invasion at the beast planet is part of the game.

testing something

If a human or demon is really dedicated, they could kill people on Arboreus.

I will be that demon! I will come for you, your wives, your children and your farms. I will spare only your cats

I second the Dragon Kin, although I am unsure if they should be in the demon or beast planets.

Also, there is no need to have multiple dragon races each specialized in a role. The game doesn't have classes and the skill system is not limited to races.

OK the game is build around the concept of three planets, three different playstyles. Beast planet for pve, Demon planet for (lawless) pvp/pk and Human planet for pvp/pve.

There are two things that need to be addressed. The first one is what kind of justice system the human planet will have. Sure, apparently we don't know yet, but when the devs design that justice system it has to be meaningful and not too restricting. It should allow pvp in the end of the day. It may be in the context of guild wars (and not solo player killing), it may be in the context of bounties or whatever, but it should not be an excuse for not allowing pvp. Otherwise, just make the human planet just pve and be done with it.

Secondly, a question. We know that a demon may visit the beast planet. It may be difficult, but it will be possible, Will the demon be able to stay at that planet? Will it be possible to ally with the beasts and do pve if the player chooses to do so? Will it be possible to kill the beasts? Which world's rules will apply in that example?

@frost Do we have any more information about this justice system?
