you really gotta ease with your polls, they're extremely irrelevant.

im playing Stardew Valley cause farm life is life.

@Wika said in Looking for Developer Feedback on current Siege Mechanics Setup:

@grofire I like to play different styles. I like to craft and be left alone. I also enjoy random PVP. I also love Sieges and Strategic fights. What I don't like is being out on my crafter so to speak and for this example (Human group traveled and rolled up on me took all my loot) then I am unable to go and burn their city to the ground. lol

it's possible to create characters from all 3 different planets.
I share the same sentiment that i have my different moods, sometimes i enjoy full on pvp, other days i just wanna take it easy and PVE.

Have you looked at what beast-kin you wanna take for an Arboreous character? i'm looking at bears myself.

IS FRACTURED JUST ANOTHER “GANKBOX”?

It’s not. We’ve always felt that sandbox MMOs tend to discourage players who don’t appreciate hostile interactions. Because of this, we have designed a unique universe that will allow you to choose whether to start in a brutal open-PvP environment (Tartaros), a solely cooperative one (Arboreus) or a mix of the two (Syndesia), according to your race of choice. Travels between planets and interactions with other races will be possible, but subject to limitations.

hopefully this gives you a bit of an idea until a more accurate answer pops up.

@Wika said in Adding Fast Travel Planet to Planet... Your Opinion Matters!:

@Zori watch the latest one again.. @Prometheus said you don't have to take over the city. You can have them set up tax to you. Left a lot of open questions.

Thanks for the heads up, didn't know there was a new one! Will try to watch it, it does seem like it has opened more questions than answers indeed. but as far as the previous Q&As goes and some of his answers to people on the forum, that was the consistent thing.

@Wika said in Adding Fast Travel Planet to Planet... Your Opinion Matters!:

but to tax the city instead of take over ownership of it.
I believe what they're trying to say in that is if you're already a part of that city, you can have a vote and win the election.

I'm not really sure where you've seen the 'taxing a city to take control of it', but all of the Q&As i've watched suggested that there are only 2 ways to take control over a city, by votes or by siege.

If you're not part of the city, you do it by siege.
if you're already a part of it, you can do it by votes. If the city is under dictatorship rule and does not have votes, you can get you and your buddies to siege it to take control of it.

@Wika said in Adding Fast Travel Planet to Planet... Your Opinion Matters!:

@SakuTheMedic Agree with making it resource/gold/etc.. dependent. Will take effort to utilize to travel. My biggest concern is for the siege aspect. I am fearful of one and done if you die during a siege if attacking from one planet to the next due to travel time if gates are only temporary.

you can't really siege on planets iirc.

To siege a city/town is to take control of their city.
Demons cannot stay long in the human world, in the same sense that Humans cannot remain in the Demon world or Aboreous for long. You can't even enter arboreous if you're Evil aligned.

I think what you're looking for is PVP or 'PK'ing on other planets which is possible. As a Demon, you can travel to the human realm and engage them in fights without having to lawfully engage them and vice versa.

Humans living in Syndesia however can also PVP but only if it's under a lawful agreement.

@Wika said in Trade, Auction House, Mailbox - Global Trading Economy:

@Zori So if a resource is required to make an item that is only on Planet A.. How will the other planets obtain it? Honest question so curious.

You can travel.
There is also an asteroid mechanic, think of them as 'random biome instances'.

They have varying intervals, some are once in a lifetime, once a year, month, week, etc. etc.
and they can last for hours to a week.

that way people have a chance to get the 'scarce' resource that are inaccessible to them, particularly if it's guild locked.

This is also the design philosophy behind the three planets. If I understand and remember it correctly, and im certain someone will correct me on this...

The three planets are designed to cater for all 3 niche player needs.

Open world PVP can only happen in Tartaros
Lawful PVP can happen in Syndesia
No PVP is for Arboreous but there are certain parts of Arboreous where this is possible.

So if PVP is what you're after, Tartaros would be your choice of planet. This doesnt necessarily mean that you can't travel to other planets and PVP, you can except for Arboreous, you need to be aligned with a peaceful alignment to enter it.

There is also a very big difference between knocking a player down vs killing them.

knocking them down doesnt give you any negative effect, killing them however would put you on negative alignment.

if you watched the Q&As you'll be able to get the gist of the idea that the devs are trying to push.

They want travelling between planets to be a laborious task so that people would actually plan for it and use the towns/cities in between as a 'resting spot' or w/e. if 'fast travel' between planets is implemented, that would defeat the purpose of several mechanics implemented in the game, one of them is the Asteroid mechanic.

@Ostaff said in Trade, Auction House, Mailbox - Global Trading Economy:

All markets are local. There is no planetary merchant system. Players must deliver their products to local markets and may now use any means of fast travel to do so.

In regards to equipment, you will have the ability to sell those are local merchants.

This.

This was also stated several times on Q&As on how they'll work.

@Oxfurd said in What is your biggest want in this game?:

I was thinking about this last night. I would like to see them work in boats and ocean encounters. Like whaling and fishing. In time of course but I think that would be neat.
Just a thought . I don't know.

I would definitely second this!

I love ocean exploration and travel. I've always enjoyed finding new/interesting routes and transporting goods, and people.

@KingMiracle

the wiki is not fully updated, a much larger and more detailed content for your Qs can mostly be found on Q&As, the knowledge about the game is definitely quite scattered so popping up a thread can definitely help answer more of your Qs.

edit:

to simplify, much about the game comes in a drip feed from lots of random players and responses from the dev.

@KingMiracle said in Zvz content:

As u can see there are few cities with 30+ players in each. What if they decide to fight eachother ? All i hope is that the servers can handle 30v30 at the start

i'd strongly suggest that you read the pvp mechanics of the game first and the difference between all 3 planets to get a gist of an idea of how PVP will work.

as for ZVZ, it was already answered/hinted on the Q&A that they intend to work against the typical zvz cheese mechanics like player stacking and over loading zones to lag it.

They haven't fully disclosed everything yet but those were the 2 key main areas that they've highlighted.

It sounds like your concern is on the server overload more so than the tactic itself though.

If it is the tactic itself, then it's being addressed or will be addressed. Devs have acknowledged that it'll generally be the way to go on large scale pvps/guilds, but there are many mechanics that would sort of avoid the zvz, one of them is the asteroid mechanic where scarce resources would have limited time means of accessing them.

if it is the server overload, then i'm not too familiar on what their approach is to remedy that.

There would definitely large scale pvps that are not directly related to scarce resource but a strategic location though, that'll get interesting.

16 characters, white spaces allowed. No special characters allowed.

general trend of the sandbox mmo's leans that way later on in the game, but this game is actually trying its best to thwart against that direction.

There are body collision, and other mechanics (that I'm not too familiar of) that are being implemented or going to be implemented to thwart people from doing something like, oh idk. 50 people stacked up on one cell.

once upon a time, there was a

hehehe there was a post on the dev forum about this xD

this just reminded me of the time from last test where this dude was like "i'm dying and I can't afford to pay for the key, someone give me key please."

weird time but memorable.

Yes you can, this was covered in the Q&A.

You can either do a 'hostile/violent' take over or by votes.
It depends on how the town is being run.

If a town is being run in a 'democratic' way, there will be votes.
You can also run it as a dictator and forever be its leader.

As for violent take overs, once a town/city has been taken over, the victors will have a choice of either booting out everyone that lives there and let the entire place decay overtime or absorb them as a subordinate.
