Edit: Turns out open beta isn't actually open, you need to have LiF:YO or buy a backer package. http://lifeisfeudal.com/ http://lifeisfeudal.com/forum/q-a-with-bobik-about-the-upcoming-obt-release-transcri-t24763/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR9gt4vLo28 Life is Feudal is that medieval pvp sandbox you heard about a few years ago, the one that said it was going to be an MMO but then realized MMOs were hard, so they released Life Is Feudal: Your Own as a multiplayer game with private servers. Then they released a single player village management game, Forest Village, using the exact same engine and assets, because they needed even more money and still could not make an MMO. Now, after having taken a bunch of suckers for a ride, they're almost ready to deliver the MMO part. Open beta begins Freakazoid_ fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Nov 18, 2017 |

I'll play with you gents. I think... The website is a clusterfuck for info but that's what I was told on a twitch stream. Edit: Ok. The cheapest package is $30. This is the exact opposite of an "open" beta. It's a paid closed beta. https://play.lifeisfeudal.com/ $30 isn't bad compared to many early access pieces of poo poo. Need at least 10 people to form a Guild though and claim land, which doesn't cost real $$$. Less than 10 you form a "Band" of mercenaries that can kind of work together but nobody can claim land unless you pay for the premium sub which comes automatically with the $30 package and you have 30 days to find your plot of land and you get up to 150 cells of land or something. Once the premium goes away, you have to spend real $$$ to get God's Favor in order to claim more land. So this is a social game, in order to get "free" land you need a Guild. At least from what I understand. SabinBlitz fucked around with this message at 20:00 on Nov 18, 2017 |

We have a goon group that is going to play which I'm sure others will come in to elaborate on/make a steam group for, but at the moment launch is kind of a clusterfuck with problems connecting to the update server to download the latest version. Give it a day or so, we have about 6 of us from the old Camping the Stairs mumble that are going to play so there should be enough goons to get a guild claim going. Also apparently to put a guild claim down you need a copper coin, which you can get from selling junk (a bone glue is good enough from what I saw) at trade posts. You also need preparations and stuff but that's all things we can get wherever. Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Nov 18, 2017 |

Hello boys, We have a group of about six goons who are all looking to get into the MMO, so far we have not been able to do much because of all the connection issues. If any of you are interested in grouping up with us we use our own private mumble server. Address - grover.house Port - 64738 Password - lljk We all played a good bit of LIF:YO so for the most part we know what we're doing

If you bought Your Own then you can get into the open beta. Well, you're entitled to at least. Most people are having no luck actually getting into the game though.

The launch has been an unmitigated disaster but if we get a good goon group going I'd still be down. I could dope in a few more ppl

Freakazoid_ posted:welp that's pretty scummy, guess I won't be playing after all. I mean, it's pay to play, you have to buy the game to play it. They call it open beta, but it's pretty much a soft launch since there won't be any wipes from now on. In as Justin Tyme, I am having a bear of a time just staying alive let alone finding a decent spot to settle. We basically need to find an area with a few key things: -Relatively flat, to save on terraforming labor -Plenty of trees, for building material (hauling logs is a chore) -Near clay, for building material -Near iron, which is self explanatory. This is the problem, though: You need 30 mining to be able to prospect for iron, which requires 60 digging and 60 artisan. Getting that much skill is going to take a few days or so of grinding, so we can't be absolutely certain wherever we end up living has iron until then. Settling near ridgelines and mountains is safe for iron generally, but you still can't be sure. Right now I am pretty much just looking around places that seem suitable on the map, as should everyone else. Report back what seems good and if everyone seems to agree we can get started. Choosing a good location is critical because of how much of a time sink this game can be. If we find we have to up and move elsewhere it better be for a drat good reason i.e. there is no iron within 1000 yards. The game is loving staggeringly massive, it took me like an hour to cross the desert alone. Justin Tyme fucked around with this message at 00:12 on Nov 19, 2017 |

So hills are perfect because more often than not they're relatively flat on top. And mining is easy. Find a hill near water and we are in the promised land

Pro-tip: you can right lcik an action to set it as the default (left click) action. This is making grinding skills way easier

This is making grinding skills way easier Play the minigame in the companion app to grind when you're offline. Playing the minigame at all gets you a resource, and the better you do the higher quality/rarer mats you get. When you log on, you get the resource you got through the minigame by doing the action. IE, do the logging game, and you'll chop a tree instantly and get better wood or rare blueprints too

Then I guess I better start downloading the game. I just don't want to play solo and only if there are at least 10 people willing to go at it as a goon.

Yes, Sean Bean did the intro VO. Launch is a clusterfuck, many of us can't get in, so if you can get in don't worry about rushing to get poo poo done immediately. Just travel around and find someplace suitable to build and hopefully by then all the teething issues are sorted. I dumped all my starting attributes into artisan since that's the skill that governs digging/mining/carpentry/construction, but honestly nature's lore is just as crucial in the beginning since we will need preparations to build a monument. If this poo poo really takes off, I'm not above pitching some real life ducats every month to keep goontown afloat too. I played a ton of Wurm like a decade ago so I kinda got a soft spot for this game as checks all the boxes for me.

EU is still up. I had to switch from NA download to EU download. Once it's done I'll just change the file names to NA instead of EU. Easy fix.

LiF is a good game. It's not for everyone. If you liked Wurm, it's the successor to Wurm. That being said, might be quite some time before it's playable
