So they’re at a point where they’re doing pre-alpha streams of what looks like a pretty standard MMORPG. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VM7d8BpYix4 If the goal was a PVE dungeon crawler then they’re doing pretty good!

please knock Mom! posted:I unironically prefer tab targeting, good poo poo I'm the same way. I like what they've been showing lately. The game looks nice so far, I like the 8x8 class system, I like that the dungeons seem difficult. The next step though is trying to deliver on all the dynamic content that is supposed to be the selling point of the game lol

joshtothemaxx posted:Isn’t hat when EQ Next totally poo poo the bed? When they realized (1) our people aren’t good enough to get the voxels system working well and (2) that company we paid to do our dynamic enemies and quest system can’t deliver? Yeah but it's okay because these devs know what not to do now  please knock Mom! posted:I really hate the people clamoring for more action combat garbage. We have GW2, BDO, TERA, and it always just devolves into mindless buttonmashing unless you're engaging a boss or something. I hope they stick with oldschool. EQ1 with updated graphics and QoL stuff would be amazing. Me too. I like slower, more controlled combat where each skill feels more meaningful.

big nipples big life posted:How is this the most anticipated MMO? "Reactive sandbox MMO" It's another game promising to REVOLUTIONIZE THE GENRE and create a dynamic world. Like they say players will have a major influence on how cities develop, you might need to make help guard a caravan so supplies can get to new settlements, areas will change dynamically based on whether or not players are actively killing certain mobs, etc.

I saw that there was an Ashes of Creation update thing so figured I'd bump this thread. It's kind of hard to copy and paste what's in there in one block. https://mailchi.mp/intrepidstudios.com/ashes-of-creation-development-update-300567 Some highlights Got some streams coming up soon quote:This summer so far has seen some incredible progress for the advancement of Ashes of Creation, as well as, the growth of Intrepid Studios. We have some announcements planned for our PAX Panel on September 1st, at 10:30AM PDT, which we will be broadcasting live from our Twitch, and the PAX official Twitch feed. They hired more devs quote:We will also be showing off some action combat in our next Live Stream, scheduled for August 17th, at 2PM PDT on our Twitch. Bunch of alpha info quote:We currently have over 8,500 participants for our Alpha One testing phases. We announced last month, that we will be closing the sales to Alpha One, in order to keep this number below 10,000 testers.

This is a good start overall. I think Peon hit on the obvious concerns in the vid. This could look like a huge mess of spell effects and people flailing around in large scale combat. And I’m confused about this, “You can do tab targeting or action combat!” stuff. Like if I’m using a bow why would I choose action combat and aiming when I could just use tab targeting?

https://ashesofcreation.com/blog/2019-03-07-creative-directors-letter - alpha one delayed - BR mode is gonna be up 24/7 at some point - they’re trying to have 100 full time devs on staff - they’re doing construction on a 21,000 square foot studio I love the way they phrase this stuff... quote:Testing of Apocalypse successfully revealed the need for some architectural refactoring that we’re glad we were able to spot early on, and while development is split into separate departments that continue forward despite the needed rearchitecting (engineering, design, art, etc.), some of these issues needed rebuilding from the ground up as you’ll see outlined below. Basically they realized (through testing large scale PVP in the BR mode) the current net code and planned infrastructure cannot support the gigantic PVP battles they envisioned. They are now redoing those systems and it has delayed alpha one by “months”. This is shaping up to be a massive failure lol.

None of that comes up in any of his videos  He makes good videos about games and the industry. That's what was promoted. Not the guy's personal social or political views.

Cardboard Fox posted:I got really confused when he showed what seemed to be 2 games: A action-based third party battle royal, and a traditional Everquest-like combat system with hotbars. There was something about being able to switch between each? I'm so confused. They released the battle royale mode as a way to test combat and other systems.

I said come in! posted:This does look cool, but how is it that this game is nearing 5 years in development and its still no where close to finished and just looks like a higher texture resolution version of Guild Wars 2? It still looks and feels like it does not have an identity of its own. I guess everything hinges on whether or not all the promised next gen MMO systems actually work. And I dunno that we’ll get any real clarity on that stuff until there are large scale play tests.

All the normal MMO stuff looks pretty good so far. The combat is nice and somewhat flashy, but not confusing. The PvE stuff I've seen is standard newbie quests. I like how big and open the zone appears to be. It takes time to get where you want to go. Haven't seen any PvP, node system, etc. Everyone seems to be doing newbie stuff at the moment.

punk rebel ecks posted:So I open up the stream and see that Asmongold found the city's tax rate to be 100%. Glad to see the game is Communist. lol that was pretty good Looks like he settled on 20% for now. I'm still trying to figure out what exactly the node system is though. What is the incentive to contributing to a node? And what is the long term outlook for nodes? Like is the poopsock crew going to build up each node and then move on to the next one, leaving the other nodes abandoned?

Jack B Nimble posted:So is Lazy Peon being paid to shill, or just not very vigorous in his research, or what? Because he called the founder an "entrepreneur" when he was in fact engaged in MLM. I feel like the founder being a literal scam artist should make it into your videos speculating on the possible successful realization of the game. My understanding is the AoC guy was in an MLM when he was 18 selling this stuff called Xango. My mom was in that same MLM (and every other MLM lol). It was basically all about selling fruit juice and signing up others to sell fruit juice. They had some dumb story about how it was made from berries that some tribe used to eat to make them swole and healthy or some nonsense. He made some of his money early on doing that, but most of his money was made in stocks and real estate. Anyways, I think this game will definitely launch and it might be kind of cool, but probably not because there hasn’t been a good MMO since EverQuest which also wasn’t a good MMO.
