@Chapex said in Foundation and Future:

I do not know if the Fractured Store contemplates the amount raised in the initial campaign or if it is a total raised independently.

The amount raised from Kickstarter is included in the total in the Funding page. What's not included in there is equity money, ie what we raised from investors in 2018. That number is private.

Overall, we are not swimming in money like new Scrooge McDucks, but we are doing fine given our monthly expenses. We are a small and young team and operate with much lower costs than you would expect

That being said, we'd like to expand our team, that's for sure! In the coming months we'll put way more effort into marketing and promotion. First of all, by making more video content, specifically game trailers. Plus, we are actively working to receive further capital from investors - that's not strictly needed, but it would definitely give us a great boost

@Kappawack @Zori fixed, apologies for the wait and thank you for your support!

@Logain said in Why bake bread?:

During the first open test, people had issues that no 'tutorial' existed, holding their hand to teach them the basics. The developers listened to that feedback and implemented a short tutorial. Baking bread is simply the most trivial form of conveying gathering resources and crafting, which is why the fields are marked as hotspots on the map.

^ this!

@idioticmaddog said in Why bake bread?:

Indeed, I do hope that bread and farmlands become more attractive later on.

Oh, they will, trust me. Just wait for player cities and food maintenance costs to become a thing

@KatzenJammer said in Play Free, Win A Key - The Contest:

So. Who is the winners of the May contest?

We'll send out the keys ASAP

@Nekrage said in Physical Immune enemies should be removed.:

Having to completely change a character's build and equipment to kill a single type of enemy is quite tedious.

I have no seen magic immune enemies yet but I am sure there are plans for it.

I don't really see this being a positive experience for any player.

What do you guys think about it?

The reason you can't get a Wisp at all as a warrior for now is because of missing options. For instance, you still can't enchant your weapon to make it deal non-physical damage, and shared party knowledge gains are not a thing yet.

@Phylosophys said in Physical Immune enemies should be removed.:

I agree with @Nekrage, what is the point of having to play with a party if the knowledge is not shared.

We are going to implement shared party knowledge ASAP!

@BlueGoblin said in Physical Immune enemies should be removed.:

If you have physical attack immune enemies.. then there should be magic immune enemies as well. Correct?

There will be for sure!

Now, that being said, I'd like to remind you that having to change your character build (even radically) to be able to defeat a specific creature is a core part of PvE in Fractured. Actually, the fact that pretty much only Wisps force you to do that as of today is quite sad

Hi @Denyde @Laveilath @Stacy555, we are very much aware of the many issues with PvP balancing in the open playtest Most notably:

• TTK (time-to-kill) is generally too low due to insane burst damage options, both from spells and from critical damage. The latter is particularly problematic.
• Different attributes (STR, DEX, etc) are quite imbalanced.
• There were several bugs, such as Frenzy granting too much attack speed, "double crits", etc.

The May Open Playtest was the first time ever the game featured a serious PvP option (militias), so it was the first time we got significant player feedback on it. We'll include our findings and corrective actions in our playtest review!

@Morbeous said in I give up.:

@Prometheus Well again today as soon as i get logged in the server disconnects me. Here is the pastebin link

https://pastebin.com/0t2R8ND2

This is 99% likely due to the bad way the game is doing loading assets from disk to ram. We're reworking the system in full, it should be live before Alpha 2 - Test 3.

@amrqaz said in I give up.:

https://pastebin.com/DQnpBbSH that is the logs i got stuck after pressing play it loads for some time then it returns to the main character selection screen

This was clearly taken on Friday when we had issues with our login server. Same for @Lamfadha. You could play in the following days right?

@Ehlrif said in I give up.:

Once in I tried to raise my FPS by lowering the graphic and lost the connection again.

Yes we are aware of this, happens when switching to/from Low settings. We'll make it so that you have to relaunch the client if you change the guilty setting

@Colu said in I give up.:

Hi, i am the lazy friend of @kralith

Hi! It's pretty hard to tell what's going on in your case. You seem to have very little RAM available, but I don't think it's that. We've just ported to a newer version of Unity (haven't release a patch yet), maybe that will fix it for you. If not, we'll have to look into it again.

Hi everyone!

The May Open Playtest has been running for 2 days now, and we hope you’re having as much fun playing as we do… watching you play

Performance-wise, the first day of stress-testing has been remarkably smooth, even at peak times. The second one, sadly not so much!

To make up for that, we have decided to extend the Open Playtest till Wednesday morning and give you all some Dynamight Tokens!

Read the full announcement

See you all in game!

I think the question from OP was replied to so we can close this one

@Gaelinon said in Barren Land:

I literally ran around for 30 minutes, I did not encounter a plant I could harvest, a tree I could shake for branches, an animal I could fight-NOTHING. I understand this is Alpha, but the first time I played this when it was open to the public, I was able to build a house fight some mobs and get to level 7.. 30 minutes(literally) with no content whatsoever. I logged out in frustration.

Hi @Gaelinon, what I think happened is that you lost connection with the server, but somehow your character wasn't deleted and you didn't get pushed back to character selection. You were then moving just client side with a "dummy character", basically. Data for terrains and decorations (grass etc) is in the client, so you could walk around the whole continent but found no resources, no monsters, no players... because you were not connected to the server.

This is the first time we hear something like that happening, we'll investigate. Sorry for the bad experience!

Nice, would have been even better as a group work!

Our terms of service are pretty clear, the content we do not accept is that which

"violates any third-party right or any intellectual property or proprietary right; (ii) that is unlawful, harassing, abusive, tortious, threatening, harmful, invasive of another’s privacy, vulgar, defamatory, false, intentionally misleading, trade libelous, pornographic, obscene, patently offensive, promotes racism, bigotry, hatred, or physical harm of any kind against any group or individual; (iii) that is harmful to minors in any way; or (iv) that is in violation of any law, regulation, or obligations or restrictions imposed by any third party"

Our moderation stance will be different on the 3 planets. Arboreus will be strictly moderated, while we'll let cursing and such flow more freely on Tartaros.

That being said, some things have no place even on Tartaros. Racism, xenophobia and homophobia are clearly such things. The user mentioned by OP has been banned from the open playtest, by the way.

Also, our community is usually super nice, I've only ever seen this kind of stuff happening during open weekends

@Nekrage definitely, it's really lame. We haven't implemented a proper logout timer yet. We're working on it just now - you'll be able to logout immediately in town / at home, while otherwise there's going to be a 1 minute timer (or even longer).

Also, we're adding a "coup de grace" option to kill players knocked down

We actually wanted to get both in before this test but couldn't make it in time, sorry for that!

@humerus fixed thanks

Hi @Cremoso, it's not a server issue but a client issue. Is this still happening to you? If so, please upload your Player.log file to pastebin.com and post the link here after the failed attempt to login. You can find the Player.log file here:

Hi @Sora-Senpai, are you switching from low to something else and vice-versa?

@Silynx it's a tooltip bug, it's 1.5 flat, thanks for reporting

@Harmongestel it was a bug that we still need to fix. I've unlocked your character manually. Apologies for the issue!
