it takes a community to build a house! get friends, help them, let them help you and enjoy the trouble of building a house.

@Xulu @RealSatan Hasn't been decided yet, but it's certainly not shutting down right now.

@Pwnstar said in Developer updates regarding game status?: @Kralith said in Developer updates regarding game status?: I also don't understand your @Tuoni said in Developer updates regarding game status?: That is not acceptable reason. When Alpha 1 is launch, what happens next? Then devs are too busy to maintain Alpha 1 and they need to start focus on Alpha 2. So with that logic devs can use that same reason everytime and they never have time for community and marketing. I think thats the only valid reason, to work straight towards the next phase. He's saying that excuse can be used every single time, so it's not a useful answer. Exactly.

@Xulu, Ok here we talk about two different things : <..> so I've been missing one news article Blog articles (8 page of news) are referenced in "Read Fractured Blog Article" What you show upper is the newsletter quest. You need to check your email and your spam/trash folders on your webmail. You need to have received 13 mails from newsletter@fracturedmmo.com. So here one missing.

@gibbx said in Developer updates, any updates...: (...)Personally I think its more important for them to actually work on the game. I can be patient. I concur! That said, it is going to be a matter of the current 'development phase'. Since pre-alpha (right now) is under NDA, it is a lot more 'additional' work for them to release public statements. With Alpha 1 (end of January/beginning of February hopefully), progress is going to be a lot more 'visible', since people are going to stream their experience.

I tend to try and help smaller studious when I can. That being said, the game and all it's concepts make it very easy to donate. It will be interesting to see what happens in the near future with all the drama surrounding Unity.

@vortech said in Developer forums?: Is there a dev tracker anywhere? Some forum software feature plugins to bring such functionality. @Specter just find the names of the devs and look at their post history.

Ashes of Creation is still something what I am interested with and I am waiting to see how it will flesh out. I tried to go back to Albion Online, but I just could not get the spark anymore. I have recently tested WoW vanilla in private servers. Atm I am only playing Age of Magic mobile game as a filler, but most likely going to stop that soon too because lack of content.. Mostly I am waiting to start of Fractured alpha 1. I am going to buy one package and test Fractured for sure, but I am still wondering when to actually jump in. So I want to see first does Alpha 1 look something I want to try already or should I still wait start of next alpha or even betas.

I usually play 2-4 hours almost everyday in the evening, after work and dinner. But what I play depends on how I'm engaged with a game: I could play only a title for months (or years) if I'm having really fun with it.

I believe it was said that open world PvP would be off at the beginning of alpha and arenas would be used to test PvP, but I can't find a source for the first claim so I may be mistaken. It's part of the human world though, so it will eventually be nearly free-for-all PvP with consequences (with the corresponding alignment restrictions).

@xulu said in A few Q's: Regarding the above, I'm guessing if you want a true crafter/builder, etc. you would really focus the stats on the corresponding attributes? IE, Intel, etc? It depends on what you want to craft. Everyone will potentially have access to all recipes and crafting techniques but everything has an associated attribute requirement. For example, blacksmithing requires moderate strength, gem crafting requires perception and dexterity, etc. If you design your character to craft certain things, you won't necessarily be weaker in combat, but you'll have to adapt your skillset to complement your attributes. In regards to housing, will there be secure storage within, sort of like a personal bank? (Pretty sure there will be limits as well?) People can't enter your home without your permission and you'll have limited storage in them, but if you have a house in a city, the governor might decide to kick you out, in which case you have a small time frame to move your stuff out before it's taken by the city (or gets deleted?). I've seen most of the videos from like June, are there any updated ones? No. The closest we have are the content pills. Will crafting have it's own set of skills associated with it, like magic/combat, etc? I don't think so. Nothing like that has been mentioned by the devs.
