Again, it's not happening. They are only going to slightly upgrade the engine. We are not getting Conan: Exiles' engine in TSW.

They're revamping combat to be more action-oriented, reducing the number of players that can be in the same zone. It's the same engine, it is not being ported to Unreal. The same old, broken, buggy engine whose original developers have left. That's really all you need to know.

Hypocrisy posted:I just hope they let us carry over some titles so I don't have to do the floor is lava challenge again. Nope. Only titles and cosmetics bought with cash money are getting transferred. It has not been clarified if this includes whatever was in the bags you bought for up to 960 FC points apiece.

Pilchenstein posted:Where are you getting this info from? I can't find anything but vague buzzword patter about it. Odonoptera, the community manager guy posted:Hey all, there's been a lot of talk about this topic, and we know it's an important one for many people. Our goal is to copy all vanity items that were purchased with money; including item store purchases, membership rewards, items of the month, and such. This should also include titles, mounts, and pets. An item being character-specific or account-wide doesn't impact if it will be eligible to be copied over. As we approach the launch (not beta launch, the launch launch) we'll go into details on what exactly will copy over between games if you choose to move over to Secret World Legends. As for the engine... it's on Twitter but it's not loading at the moment.

DancingShade posted:Hopefully we get combat & graphics more similar to the Conan survival game. I mean I can dream right? Conan ran on UE4. This is keeping the same old Dreamworks engine. They are supposedly basing the new combat off of the reticule mode you get if you press T.

It's all going to be the same mobs, missions, etc. The main differences are going to be in itemization, character progression, and (supposedly) the way combat is conducted.

The problem is that it's not certain what vanity stuff is being transferred. All we know right now is that it's "all cash shop items". We do not know if that includes the items that were in RNG bags purchased from the cash shop.

Kessel posted:Isn't the reticle mode from the main game really, really clunky? Amazingly so, yes, but it was supposedly what Conan: Exiles combat was based off of so they seem to think they can make something of it.

Honestly AEGIS was simple with an autoswapper and, unfortunately, foreknowledge. In other words, it was bad.

Only a tiny number of select people (read: people the community manager likes probably) were let in.

quote:There's another currency (marks of something) that is used for purchasing other poo poo and it seems to come only from daily challenges. That 2nd currency is also what you can exchange for real life currency via Aurum (think gems in GW2, Zen in Neverwinter, etc.). Yup they hosed up the economy again. I've been hearing complaints the game was "pay to progress in a reasonable timeframe" and welp that is what it sounds like. Tallgeese fucked around with this message at 04:25 on May 2, 2017 |

...what. No random loot completely defeats the point of killing open world monsters. That is insane. Then there's the death penalty. That is awful beyond words and will utterly decimate anyone's desire to play pick up groups without hyper optimized gear. Then there's the economy. TSW's economy was already trash, with nothing being worth anything except a small subset of signets and rare cosmetics. It's going to happen again, but now you can't grind up Pax.
