Stealth is a stretch goal.


Next stretch goal is character customization.

Not seeing how that's a bad thing.

It shouldn't have been a stretch goal at all and just be a part of the game. Stretch goals should be cool poo poo that adds to a game not poo poo they purposely hold back.

I think we're talking from different angles here. I'm saying there's no reason an MMO has to have stealth, which was my misread of what you said. My answer to what you're really saying is that during the KS they were adamant about stealth being not planned for the scope of the game with what they were asking and what they were expecting to get. Even now without a ton more money only the camo system will be in for launch. I get what you're saying, but they've been pretty upright about the whole thing.

Yeah, we definitely are then. I haven't been keeping up with this game since there are only 24 hours in a day and about 30 billion Kickstarted Early Release MMO games out there. It's cool that the devs are being upfront about everything and want to add meaningful stealth. From what you said here and what Kims posted it looks cool but if history is an indication for these crowdfunded games then it's all talk to get more money but all stealth will be is an extra button to make you see-through.

Every MMO should be treated with healthy skepticism and with bullshit detectors fully powered.

This should be the required title for every game here nowadays.

I backed this for 110$ 3 years ago, and I don't care if it takes them 3 more years to deliver as long as they test everything well and deliver enough content to survive much longer than the 30-60 days modern MMO's usually survive without seeing a vast playerbase drop.

People need to realize this is probably our very last chance to ever experience true RvR, with the bonus addition of being able to craft/build our realm like we want it to be (and try to defend it from others).

This being a PvP game at its core is also very important, because balancing a game for both PvP and PVE is something that has never been done successfully before and practically impossible.

You registered here 3 years ago. Are you a J4G for a non-existent guild in a non-existent game?

Witch Hunter tore my heart out. Such a cool class design... completely worthless in PvP. I loved them so much I wanted to make a sword/pistol thief in gw2, but alas that combo sucked there too :(

The concept of Witch Hunter is my favorite MMO class. The actual playing of one, not so much.

Can we at least be the weird druid people instead of the Arthurian knockoffs? :smith:

Since they have this race:


Silverhands

The Silverhands have a long tradition of tremendous sacrifice. When they come of age, each member of this race gives up their right arm as a sign of dedication to the Realm.


I say yes.

How much funbux did Archeage with the $150 preorder pack? Whatever it is that is how much you owe me the tax certs I had to buy to place all those plots on launch for you fuckers.
