They very specifically said they are going to hire a QA lead for sure, they sure as hell said nothing about not fulfilling stretch goals.

GO gently caress YOURSELF posted:Is this still an accurate state of the game? Per the schedule, it looked like there were several playtests recently and I'd like to jump in if there's a working product. This is not a working product, it's still considered pre alpha as far as i know. You can jump in and do stuff but there is no point or purpose to any of it yet.

cathead posted:Did they ever really hype up the actual idea of archetypes? It was more the disciplines that were the important part and like, actual abilities/design. At any rate, they mention in the vid that it was more of a cost-saving thing early on and apparently they've done well enough with funding that they had the opportunity to shift gears with it and took it. Archtypes were never hyped as a "feature" they were always a budgetary measure due to lack of funds to do art and animations for a wide variety of race/class combinations. I don't see how it was in any way the focal point of how the game worked. gently caress them for keeping duelist as guinea pig only though, drat it.

So no soft launch this year? probably for the same reason they changed the archtype system: they must have got a pretty decent influx of money from somewhere.

The disciplines really add a gently caress ton of variety and build possibilities to the bare bones system they had before, i had a lot of fun this weekend too. Banshee is a surprisingly good choice for basically every class.

There's going to be an assassin class yeah. The fact that they made Shadowbane shouldn't give you misguivings, that game had the best stealth system of any game yet. It basically boiled down to a) having a dedicated anti stealth class that was effective and fun to play and b) giving stealthers something to do during mass pvp battles that did not reduce them to nothing but stealth gankers.

Orv posted:My concern, and really the thing I super don't like about their design, is that you can (if disciplines and such support it), create that character, but instead of it being an alt, you have to devote two months or whatever to being able to step into that role. That's not fun, it's not fun in EVE to wait and I certainly don't intend to pay a sub for Crowfall even it it does turn out good, so it's still lovely here. There only difference between this and any other game is that your leveling speed is predetermined instead of having to grind for it. It's automatic leveling, it doesn't change how the game works at all and it doesn't make the result different from like WoW. You want an alt, you make one, and then you level it up. Having that happen automatically at a predetermined speed is not a negative.

Fog Tripper posted:Whats this about subs? Crowfall is buy to play with optional subs, I believe the main benefit of subbing is you get to train 3 classes at the same time instead of 1. Not sure if there is anything else.

I know that, I still don't understand how having passive time gated training instead of leveling affects your ability to play an alt. The only difference is that training happens automatically at a set pace instead of having to grind for it.

Shadowbane did have extremely fast leveling, but that was an outlier. A month or two is a lot closer to standard than a few days. If the problem is just that it's too slow, I disagree but I understand your point at least. Of course we don't actually know how long it will take at this point.

Can't ignore the fact that just making a new vessel gives you a character with all abilities and capable of wearing any equipment, training is just minor stat buffs.

Interdependence is a core part of the game, if not being able to do everything yourself is a deal breaker this is really the wrong game.

From the 215 buck KS pack. Also have some type of castle and a collectors edition box i plan to sell as well. Lotta other poo poo too that i haven't really kept track off. At this point with the game likely being a real game at some point it looks like a good investment.

It's a sign that this is not a "game" yet, but a testing environment. There aren't many people around because there is no game to play, not because the game isn't fun. You can login and harvest resources, craft things, pvp, build houses and poo poo or just do your skill training but without any point to any of it there is very little reason for people to play regularly. Its not a sign of anything besides that the game is pre alpha.

Flavahbeast posted:I didn't play shadowbane much but I do remember that when I played aoe attacks could only hit a small number of players at a time and this resulted in sieges where everyone stood on top of each other to make targeting difficult The point of stacks was so when the enemy ran into you it would try to load hundreds of characters all at once and crash you. It worked perfectly. You could target AOEs on graves or even by text command so it wouldn't work for that anyways.

Success or failure is going to be determined on whether they make a good game or not, their vip system is not going to factor into the equation. And as far as their finances go from what they let on they seem to be doing quite well and getting more money all the time. This game has only been in development for like 3 years with a shoestring budget, they could still deliver a pile of crap but that they've gotten this far this fast is already pretty impressive.

daslog posted:There's a reason that no company has a game like this. It's really hard to pull off a game where PVP combat matters and keep your player base. The losers have a tendency to Simply abandon your game because no one likes losing for fun. That's the main issue their entire game design revolves around solving, so at least they understand what they are facing.

Who knows how it will work though. That's just one of the rule sets, personally i only care about the dregs.
