Just bought the game and played about 45 minutes with a friend. I agree that it's a really solid foundation for what could be a great action RPG. The combat is satisfying and it's mostly clear what is going on, however I wish there were a little more feedback for when you take damage. The interface is pretty intuitive, but I would highly recommend that Wollay add customizable hotkeys for "potion"-type items. Hitting tab and the keys I use for movement in order to switch the item bound to Q is highly inconvenient, especially when you're using potions one minute and food the next.

Obviously, the indoors camera needs a lot of work.

Oooooooooooh!

I'm guessing some goon will start a thread in Private Game Servers for Cube World, right?

It'll be nice if there are a few main servers to stop in on every so often like Minecraft (unless this works a little differently?).

Maybe it's because I went with a Scout, so I can just spam charge attacks for days, but the combat so far seems pretty fun and fast-paced and bosses aside nothing's taken me more than like 10 seconds of concentrated fire to kill.

I am looking forward to seeing more depth added to the combat and skill trees though.

Edit: I do have a question though. Has anyone figured out how to rotate the weapon model in the customization interface? Click and drag doesn't seem to work, and WASD just exits the window.

It's mechanical. Seems to come at regular intervals.
My game just crashes to desktop once I get to the main menu. I was able to play the game perfectly a half hour earlier.

Characters work more like Terraria where everything is saved to your computer and you log into servers using that character.

I am so tired... I am so tired all the time...
So far my biggest complaint with the game is that Rangers are kind of ridiculously overpowered as the start. Boomerangs are just flat out ridiculous.

It's pretty obviously still an alpha but it does look like it has a lot of potential. The visible humidity and temperature stats also make me wonder if we'll see some weather related mechanics outside of the biome types.

Sometimes when you enter a named area a mission will pop up on the right hand side. So far it's only been "kill the boss" and I haven't been able to complete them yet because this game is hard.

If you look at the Map by pressing M you'll see crossed daggers, that's where there are missions to kill something.

About 15 minutes ago the registration page loaded, but when I input information and clicked to create my account, it went to a 404 page. I figured it was in the final stages of being fixed and left to do some stuff, now I come back and it's back to the old 'down for maintenance' page again. :sigh:

So how do you make potions? I've got the flasks and the heart flower but have no idea how to A) Put water in the flask and B) Actually make the drat thing.

Go to a water source.
Hit C to open the crafting menu.
Go to the tab on the end.
Make water flasks out of empty flasks.
Go to the alchemy tab.
Make potions out of heart flowers and water flasks.

If anybody has trouble logging into the launcher, you might want to change your password on the Picroma site. Apparently the launcher doesn't like special characters, so I changed my to alphanumeric to get it to work.

If someone else is struggling with no invert mouse I found a small program that does that for you http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Invert_Y-axis


edit: :D this doesn't actually invert the camera, it only inverts the little hand you use in the menus. Very strange.

Really digging the sprawling locations, not sure if I just got a good seed for that or not. I found some ruins which are just absolutely massive and stretch out across a forest, swamp and more forest with tons of buildings full of monsters. Battled through it with the help of some nice Dwarven adventurers I ran into.

It feels like it takes too long to find anything worth killing. This game could really benefit from having levels applied to areas, perhaps in relation to villages. As it is most of my time is spent cutting down lower level monsters for 1xp and avoiding higher level monsters that will always win just to find a small pack of 1 - 4 yellow name monsters to kill for decent exp.

Do missions. Sure you may die a lot but there isn't really a penalty so it doesn't matter. It also helps you learn the combat mechanics.

Which missions? From the inn keepers? The one time I tried that they told us to kill some gnolls that were attacking the city but after wandering the city for half an hour we never found them. I guess it's time to start walking back toward town anyways. I'm quite a ways out now.

Missions are anything on the map with the crossed swords. (Zoom out and look for them)

Alright. I passed by one that was blue difficulty recently so I could head back there once night is over. I'm really hoping I can get some sort of night vision later on because it's not very stealthy for a rogue to be walking around with a lantern out.

You can talk to any inn keeper in town to make it day time. Beware though this will reset the missions available to you.

I like that I can sneak better at night, but I don't like that I can see nothing at all at night. Going into a castle to fight things took me circling the castle twice to find the gate and then having things just start hitting me while I couldn't see them (I was trying to sneak, hence no lantern). Just means I have to wait until daytime before I assault the castle again.
