Re: Mounts?

I'm thrilled to have achieved Foundation level 35, which gives me a way cool feral wolf mount
The tricky part is that I'd planned for my first/main PC to be a Wolfling so riding a wolf around will require some explaining. Wonder whether there's a chance I could trade that mount for a more credible one, in-game.

Any chance 'mount swaps' will be a thing? Or should I plan to save my wolf mount for the human PC when/if I get around to that?

the mount is just a skin, so you don't need to use it on your Udoadra. just keep the horse or whatever you are using at the time

So, enchanting and alchemy both use Intelligence to improve items
As far as I know strength does not effect how well you can Smith items.

So the best crafters will always be Intelligence based, with this in mind.

I Hope strength Will improve smithing and metal work outcomes, dexterity should improve jewelry crafting and sewing garments

Wisdom could help you bless weapons and armour

The reality of the life is "no one is entitled to anything".
Be grateful for what you are gifted with. Do not complain about gifts you didn't get.

Respect is earned, not given.

Just a few pieces of puzzle, for any interested party to put together.

It's not entitlement to ask a question.
Water gifted to a drowning man isn't a gift, but a curse.

Those not seeking respect do not see it as such when it forced upon them by others, and then mocked when not accepting it, because then it is not respect, but ignorant judgement.

A few more pieces.

Atm you are derailing your own thread arguing/defending yourself, if you carry on this path the gms will lock the thread and you will never get the droids you are looking for

(the gms dont like unconstructive arguing it's why we are not allowed to talk about ideologys irl political views)

So saying that, I'm gonna try get this back on to OP

Thinking about craftable tools, and how tools could be enchanted too effect outcome of gathering,

If you can add lightning or fire to your pick axe for example, would hitting sandstone make glass?

Iv seen players talk about freezing rivers (and devs mention something similar) interaction with elements is something I'm super intrigued about.

So I'm hoping enchanting and gathering can create diffrent and intresting effects.

Another thing I was thinking (stolen from warframe and star ctizen)

Mineing in those games is a mini game not just hitting a rock, if you hit in the right places you get better loot adding a skill based minigame, could make dedicated resource collectors game play way more intresting which imo can only be a good thing,

I certainly in a RP sence will have characters who's lifes are dedicated to certain life skills, be nice if it was also fun/engaging for my lonely fisherman/miner/farmer

@Kralith yeah i was looking as well couldn't find anything , it's why I was asking for evidence

@Xzoviac said in Anti-Hack/Cheat/Bot:

Why do we need to know?

Because it allows for a much better approximation of the level of activity we might expect to see with cheating than a simple 'something in place to deter'?

When diablo 3 was released the devs said it was uncrackable, it probably would have been, if it wasnt for the development team saying that, because all the hackers with something to prove jumped on board, and hacked diablo

Nothing they do will stop bots hacking, policing the server is the best way with basic protection to stop noob program runners.

Gms banning bot spamming so they have to rebuy the game, and having a Ingame hacking bot report system that gets actively policed, imo is the best way to deter them

@keshanberk said in to the developers:

You're right. You can also rent multiple decent servers for the price of the highest Kickstarter package ($5,000 usd). Doesn't mean the 7~10 people working on this game will achieve the scope or hype you're being promised.

so if you think this game wont do well , and you think they are just buying assets , and if you think that unity is a bad engine that causes 3d assets to lag.

why are you here?

and to disprove your asset theory

(protos spider)

they are different - different eye locations different color , different amount of leg joints , different pattern on the back... why would they not just buy this spider as its so similar (and would fit in fractured)

Answer: because they have a artist making there own assets

@Gothix said in Foundation chests:

You can just go for those titles that seem interesting for you, and put in an effort to collect those.

I think that people who try to collect "everything" in game always have a painful life.

I know this pain

@Gothix Well according to the temtem group at least, Humble bundle are giving them full creative freedom, so seems like a worthy publisher (why i posted it here)

I personally like the company it does a lot of things for charity, and seems to try sell things at better prices then a lot of game selling platforms

could definitely be a publisher to consider

@asspirin said in Human passives:

So no passives, right. Will those guns / steam stuff give something to humas that will be completely different to bow and unobtainable by other races? Or will firearms be only bows with different skin and maybe bigger dmg numbers (and huge reload times)?
I hoped for example more talent points to compensate absence of other race passive bonuses. Doesn´t matter, didn´t want to roll one anyway, just curious

There is more stat points at char creation so humans are more versitile/can be good at anything

@Alexian said in Partnering with humble bundle:

@Gothix said in Partnering with humble bundle:

The biggest role of publisher for an indie company is international players support.

Small companies dont have enough resources to, on their own, adapt their game to rules and laws of each specific country, to offer player support to all nationalities and handle all issues that can arise, legal and otherwise.

That's where publisher comes in, with their already developed global network and experience handling finances, laws and global player support in exchange for portion of profits.

Problem are those greedy publishers that additionally want rights to change game and/or its cash shop, to squeeze out over time the most cash from players.

Those developers care not about longevity of the game, they just pick publishing of game after game, do money grab and move to another game when old one fails.

This is why it is CRUCIAL for devs to pick good rep, established publisher if they don't want their game failing to quickly.

Publisher will just move on to another game instantly. What will devs do? Another 4 years of new game development?

Sadly, this is what decent part of developers don't understand well enough.

Thanks for the insight on this relationship between developer and publisher! So, basically, DMS will need the services of a good publisher and should they get a bad one, the game could be severely compromised?

Yeah, Chinese games fall for this trick a lot, they get publishers in the west that want to leech a good game and have poor free 2 play markets , Cherry credits, did this recently with http://cq.sdo.com/web4/list.aspx?cid=6 this game
it made gold drops so little you could not even make enough gold to hunt, you had no choice but to buy gold with RLM. to buy potions.
the international version of this game failed because of this, and has now shutdown

@Gothix said in How will be decided which group takes a farming spot on Arboreus (animal planet)?:

Mmmm... a mini zones of influence around guild created cities on Arboreus that allow an optional rule to be set by leadership allowing only guild members to farm in that area.

Attacking the mobs if not member of the guild would then lower your karma.

Or you could buy a hunting licence or be classed as poachers

@Jetah said in Opinion on Monsters after the alpha:

@Roccandil

i dont think there'll be much coop pve here. maybe a few raid bosses but Prometheus already said the game will be solo friendly which means it'll be boring for many of the groups. unless the mobs scale based on how many attack i dont see groups being needed outside of pvp.

The sole purpose of the beastmen planet can not be the Token PVE planet , where no one groups or has a challenge, if you want to do anything interesting go PVP.

the entire basis of the MMO is that it caters to all 3 types of players

Full PVPERs
PVXers
PVEers

being solo friendly does not mean , you can solo everything in game.
they have to make content for all types of people , or only the full PVPers will stay
and then the game will die

Will the planned open weekend at the end of this month be just for paid backers, or are we going for all registered users again?

Is the spartial OS issue fixed or is it still in the process of being?

@Jetah said in Opinion on Monsters after the alpha:

@Xzoviac

you do know that the beastkin planet will be invaded by demons, right? they will have forced pvp just not nearly as much as the other 2 planets. there has to be a way for cities to change hands. they'll need some type of pvp system for that.

i wasn't speaking specifically about any planet. i was speaking in general.

the developer already stated the game will be solo friendly and that very little content will need groups for. that means what i stated above.

i promise you the pve group wont keep the game alive. they're pretty finical in that they'll jump games to something else when it releases.

Demon invasions will last less then 30 mins irc, and will be fairly difficult to create/do

As specter said that is not how city's change hands. So you do not need some kind of pvp system for that.

I think when you speak in general you have to consider the game is designed for three groups of diffrent Play styles

Could you post a link or screenshot showing where the devs spoke about solo play, and also specifically said they wouldn't be adding much group content for the PVEers, as your previous statements of fact, as proven by specter, where actually your opinion?

So if PVE players are the only group that "jump servers when other things are released", what are the pvp group doing here?
Shouldn't they still be playing the first pvp mmo they ever tried?

Just to add a little credence to my opinion, I would consider WOW a PVE game, it has pvp sure, it even has Pking servers, but the player pvp consists of max levels sitting in noob zones killing the NPC's and anyone that walks past.

it has a arena and battleground, however its hardly a PVP haven

does wow not have the highest retention of players of any mmo?...

pvp is important no doubt, but PVE will be the life blood of this game....

@Jetah said in is it possible to become a hit man:

@Gothix said in is it possible to become a hit man:

You first take the job, then kill your targets and loot them, then kill your employer and loot him, then slaughter nearby village as well because, heck it was there.

witnesses! have to remove them.

Till eventually you realise the gods witnessed it,
So you become so powerful you can kill the gods

I'd like to be able to build npc guards or minions set traps

If possible build my own dungeon filled with my own litte pets and experiments treasures lich magic artifacts

@Farlander said in is it possible to become a hit man:

@Xzoviac Explain how this system would work with game mechanics. Where would this jail exist? How would you escape? What would be the obstacles to escape? When you escaped where would you end up on the map?

Since you lose everything when you die, is the prison going to reequip you? If you manage to escape is it to a set location? Wouldn't other players be camping this location to just kill you again once you escape?

Could be a Prison Island you need to get a boat to get back too the main island, only prisoners can be taken to the island players can not go to it voluntarily, to stop camping.

you wouldnt have any gear, but could steal some from the guards and if you die you would be teleported back to the prison unless you escaped. you would just be stuck till you sentence ran out,

or you escaped , sneaking away causing a riot , stealing the keys of a guard or maybe a guild member will pay your bounty so you can leave.

if you escape you will be wanted for a while, but if you can evade the bounty hunters, for say 1hour (timer stops if you log out) you will lose the bounty and be a free citizen

oviously its just my thoughts it dont have to be this way , how would you make it work?, or do you not like the idea?

@Jetah said in Buildable items for plots:

@Xzait said in Buildable items for plots:

@Jetah i and a are letters as well... in other languages a lone v is a word... doesn't matter how many letters... it is how they r used.

while i'll agree that i and a are also words, this is the english language so v isn't a word, it's a letter.

seems you still need to learn English. if it's not your native language I can understand it's a difficult language to grasp.

Unless your english is perfect (I know mine is not), then don't start complaining about spelling and grammar

If you understand what someones point is reply and move on.
If you don't understand, request that the person clears up the parts you don't understand.

If you have lost a argument with someone and all you can do too retaliate is comment on the persons spelling just move on.

Now can we get back on topic please

@Gothix I like the idea of damaged trophies.
Made me think of different tiers of trophies, damaged trophies all the way up to glowing eye glowing energy sparks coming of the corpse/head

Hiya, i have finally hit foundation level 400, is that still the planned end, to foundation rewards

@Farlander said in Next test phase:

You must really like capes lol. I do think they make great guild uniforms. All that space to put the guild crest on. Tabards would be nice as well. There is always that one guy though.

Guild crests on shields and the pommel on swords weapons would be cool too
