I'm glad you did, I wasn't trying to sound overly smarmy I haven't even tried the game out even though I'm in the tester group. I wish they would take cues from Smite instead of too much on Tera tbh, Tera felt so weighty in a bad way e: checking out the big reveal~ thanks for the update

cathead posted:You didn't miss that much, it was fun to mess around with for a bit but it ran like poo poo. I'm interested to see how their solutions work out in the next test. Thats good because Tera is not really skillful enough imo. Skillshots and juking is what makes things more visceral and adrenaline-induced . Not watching your character get punished while being rooted in animation. There's a balance to that though Like it works amazing in monster hunter 4 ultimate because it factors in timing and positioning, and its perfect (perfect in that when you're locked in a potion drinking animation and the monster lunges at you, you rage and almost snap your DS in half ). TERA is garbage at that

Thanks for the update Redhead female rangers with green clothing is a must in fantasies Smite's Artemis Cassie from Paladins Windrunner from DoTA 2 although yea, she'll have customization, i just find it amusing that this scheme is default~ wow a lot from this update too, so we do know that bows will require ammo, this changes up almost everything

Stormgale posted:I think they are going to use ammo to put ranger in a harassment role with a scout/skirmishing archetype (this is me probably talking out my rear end) but forcing the ranger to use ammo means that as an engagement goes on they lose alot of their potency, meaning for big sieges you bring a tonne and have to commit for that ranged superiority but you can also carry light and focus on ambush/harassment. That would be the changes up everything part Think about the one big issue in mmos. Complete Downtime with insane grind to endgame or full on nonstop ganking/zerging constantly in a zerg train all around the world. I assume the developers want to gear the campaign worlds towards a balance where resources is key and the downtimes are focused on building the warmachines and planning to take strategic areas. Ammunition serves the economy too and it will be interesting to see how supply and demand function within it especially when transporting ammunition to strongholds is required to stockpile it to take the adjacent area.

cathead posted:Ok, I guess I'm sorry I brought the topic up for discussion then! I legit just wanted to talk about it. He's just being sarcastic, it's all good brah~ It's all about moderation really, you don't want to go Roberts nuts. Todd has a point about having more freedom, but as long as he is aware that even freedom has its limits and he isn't literally on a wild goose chase to find the holy grail of mmo formulas. (He kinda is but I think he's more grounded compared to Chris Roberts) Afaik, the level of ambition displayed in Crowfall is admirable and not ludicrous like Star Citizen. There's no guarantee to Kickstarters or Early Access, now we can understand as consumerists why some publishers play it safe. Lastgirl fucked around with this message at 23:27 on Jan 23, 2016 |

Well it's also with the progression of technology too, so I can agree that a decade is a reasonable timeframe. Faster internet will be one of the most integral things in mmo design. Lower latencies as more complex games will become ping reliant. It'll be symbiotic and allow developers to do more with what they envisioned without the limits of such. I've had the take away that lag is a very bad thing to have in action oriented games~ And it's obvious that mmos are moving away from tab targeting for mobility and aiming. One of my gripes in MMOs is too much realism at times, walking around is tedious. I really enjoyed Flyff, Age of Wulin/Wushu, Blade and Soul for being able to fly with your characters. I also always thought mounts were dumb and trendy and they used to be so popular that it felt like mounts were always mandatory for a successful mmo design even though they were frivolous as gently caress. (The answer to mounts was boring as gently caress fast travel) I just hope that developers can take away from that and look for ways to be more creative about getting around areas too, not just combat innovation. If I remember in Crowfall, I suppose they are doing mounts but if they make item loss across all campaigns, a(nd campaigns right now are all incubators of some crazy social experiment to see what kind of meta will arise and what people will exploit or won't), the mounts should be okay afaik within reason and consequences. I also know that the Fae assassin can glide. If they can glide off a tall cliff and jump into an enemy stronghold, that would own for example too. I remain stoic though, I've learned that it is.... too much, my friend.

Space Monster posted:Which of the two was involved in that? (Breaking SWG) I'm being super glib but I think Gordon Walton has been unfairly blamed for it in some ways but... I also think he's got some responsibility to it and he does acknowledge this. Gordon Walton also agreed that the forums should be paywalled to prevent disingenuous trolls like us flooding it with tears~ So, I'm treating him with caution. I talked with him on slack once, he's an extremely bright person and super nerdy about it, not very social either so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt because I recognize the potential and he knows he sees this too.

how can you still keep this up for over a year when the forums are dead because of this hugbox its insane petty even the thread topic was "Guild Respect" and the OP was asking about "What guild do you guys like and respect in this Playtest" playtest its a farce and a charade for something that's designed as a competitive pvp sandbox just imagine if it goes live and people start melting down over items being stolen and Aunt Pann steps in and goes "cut it out, be nice."

Todd mentioned food stores in a forum post, so food caravans could be very well a thing and chefs are a possible profession Another economic layer ontop of minerals/ores could be interesting. I am pretty skeptical and I know that hunger mechanics are generally a very razor thin thing to manage without feeling like you have to pop a thousand apples like they're on a timer. Good golly, all this calories I have to burn after swallowing a billion duped apples I'll kill everything for a month without even feeling a thing. I hope there's no whack a mole hunger bar that you have to deal with, as it looms over you the entire campaign. We know that the campaign cycles through seasons so it could be logical that the first phase, the spring is all about preparation and gathering resources, trading, raiding those resources to keep an edge. Something something grasshopper, something something ant
