It's friday, and that means it's time for another installment of dev fanfiction theater! Today a guy plays with some lady's nob. She really likes it. https://www.revivalgame.com/forum#/discussion/790/weekly-blog-update-42-a-day-in-the-life-of-a-weaponsmith quote:Ty wakes to the kvetch of seagulls bickering over scrap bait outside his wharf-front shop. After a quick prayer to Dehnno he moves from his bedroom to the storefront of his small Tide’s End house. Ty has a forge in the upgradeable room at the back of the house, and on any given day he may be in there hammering away at arrowheads, spearpoints, and common daggers or cooking implements as these are always in demand by player and NPC alike. They are, however, not very challenging, and it is rare that Ty can actually improve or learn new skills making these sundries day after day. Still, predictable wages are a comfort, so Ty spends a bit of time each week making a stock of one or another of these, but today there is really no need. So instead he can focus on a personal project. Today's blog also came with some concept art and another screenshot. What a time to be alive. Can you feel the hype???

I liked the last dev diary because they unironically said the woman is really good at cooking, every type of cooking imaginable, except for grilling because that's what guys do.

With a cottage you get a scrap of yard outside. If you get one of the cottages outside the city you even get a bit of farmland, and they don't even cost more than the ones inside the city. The Ghoratul gold server still has 5 of the $80 farm cottages left.

An interesting tidbit came up today. Since Revival is using UE4, and UE4 has native VR support, you can use an Oculus Rift in Revival. Piss and poo poo in virtual reality. https://www.revivalgame.com/forum#/discussion/797/revival-already-partially-works-with-virtual-reality

I'm not totally sure what their long term plans around for recruiting new people who don't throw money on buying a house once all the houses are bought up. Seeing this is something that most people are going to want long term are they just going to open more servers and segment their small population even more? I think the answer is, this game is never coming out and they going release something so half-rear end no one will play.

Given that they, an FPS company, had serious difficulties releasing an FPS using Cryengine, it'd take a miracle for this to be a real thing.

God drat this poo poo is loving ridiculous They'd have a hell of a time just implementing these smithing features alone. A game where you go to market, buy materials, come home, manually fold your steel and hammer it and custom craft many different types of gear. (I think there's a full game already like that, actually) But this is just one crafting system within a giant MMO!

They say that they expect most players won't own houses. Owning a house gives you citizenship in that city, allows you to participate in neighbourhood politics, and gives you a set place to sleep and store your stuff. It's a bonus, not a requirement. The only thing you NEED a house for is to have a guild. In order to charter a guild you need to designate a house to be the official headquarters. I don't think it needs to be any particular style of house though, so a $40 tenement should work. If the game ever exists and goons want an official guild with an in-game guild chat channel some goon will have to lay out $40+. Or we could just go without the official stamp of approval and use our own out of game IRC channel or something. If people want more houses they won't need to add more servers though. Crown's Rock is described as a small town that comes with 500 player homes. Once the game exists they plan to soon open more cities, and each new city has more houses for sale. There are already dumb shits begging to be allowed to buy houses in other cities that don't even have concept art yet. https://www.revivalgame.com/forum#/...-looking-for/p1 This is the world we live in now.

DId Crytek bank on singleplayer or did something go wrong? Genuinely curious here, I thought it was a given that an FPS engine developer would at least pay attention to multiplayer

I guess that's being super reductive, to be honest. As with all third party solutions you're going to have a way better time if you figure things out for yourself, but in CryEngine's specific case the way it's built and functions, very specifically around the physics stuff, is real bad for multiplayer. It's why Crysis 1 and 2 MP was just a bog standard shooter and not the new Half-Life Deathmatch with physics guns and stuff. It's why Star Citizen is having to go "Oh hey, we uh, need to build a new system for CryEngine that'll let us handle all this crazy bullshit we promised you guys, but actually makes CryEngine poo poo itself if we try to do it out of the box, woops". That's not to say the Star Citizen people don't have the necessary chops to get around that stuff, but it's been a real concern for all the physics interactions SC wants to undertake all the way back when they said "We're using CryEngine for our physics driven space game" in the Kickstarter. E: Again being reductive, but CryEngine was basically the second coming of the Source engine. They built it for physics and to look really goddamn nice, but the moment you put dynamic physics in any multiplayer system, regardless of engine, it gets extremely expensive very quickly.

They are literally just copying star citizen to get money from people in exchange for dreams and pictures of things. They worked on star citizen and learned from the master and now they're doing it on their own.

Week after week of devblog fanfiction probably has you wondering 'when do I get to write poo poo gently caress fan fiction?' Don't worry, Revival has a thread for you (unless you are Putty): https://www.revivalgame.com/forum#/discussion/500/poems-limericks-and-bawdy-song Yes, they are asking 'players' to contribute poems, limericks and bawdy song for possible inclusion in the game. The offerings so far are . . . well, I'll let you be the judge. quote:There's a girl you should meet out in Leeside quote:There once was a man from Skypass quote:She danced and swayed through shadowed lights quote:One witch on a starless night, quote:Old man Percy has a farm near the crypts So if you find the critics on SA to harsh for your poetic soul, you could try contributing to this exciting imaginary game. I bet Croberts never tried that!

Angela Christine posted:That's interesting about cryengine. Any dirty laundry about Unreal Engine 4? The way their graphics engine is built could mean it'll be impossible to use asynchronous shaders correctly, which is a thing that's coming with DX12, and is something console developers are starting to use on xbone/ps4 to gain nearly 30% fps over classic implementations (on lovely old console hardware, no less). The jury is still out on that, but it will be funny if it ends up being true.
