K so TT was openly putting things together during the Beta etc, folks like me who had no idea who he was or any of his history signed right up for the guild / discord. For future reference maybe bring up the reasons that TT running things is a bad idea a little sooner? Would have been nice to know before launch although I guess we did get a pretty hilarious meltdown in the last thread so maybe it's worth it after all.

Would have been nice, yeah. The funny thing is I knew who Badr was but no loving idea who Tempus. I can’t really remember how I knew Badr because it’s been so long but I just remember him being a god awful J4G.

I'm in one of the spillover guilds, have really liked the goons am playing with in game, and like the game a good bit in general (except for the queue bullshit). So, I have zero qualms with moving to a new discord etc, but it would be nice to keep as much of the 3-companies worth of goons we have on Royollo together as we could. I've only seen 1st hand one of TTs friends (Lumbering Troll / Tandon Erro) calling people "retarded" and then raging against the machine when asked nicely to stop doing it but that was enough to give me pause, and shortly after that the thread blew up. Otherwise the large goon crew over there has been chill / fun / helpful.

Yeah we’re gonna try and keep the goon guilds together. Nobody needs to jump ship yet but I would follow the advice of mods and standby for the new Discord and further news.

So I definitely saw this coming but it’s been confirmed. TT will not hand over the governor chair and will most likely kick me from UwU by the time I’m home. Everyone should leave UwU and ask for an invite to the other two goon guilds.

I told Tempus we needed a leadership restructure. I told him if we don’t then we’ll have a goon split and there would be five members in UwU next week. I even told him he can stay just to appease him and he lost his poo poo on us. Straight up man-child meltdown. He then left the cat herder chat and made some announcement in Discord. I followed up the announcement by telling everyone to leave UwU and join the new discord and I got banned but definitely wasn’t surprised.

I don't suppose we could talk about the game?

Is anyone else rocking gaxe+musket?

Yes, actually, the last couple days. Why? I've mostly just been doing weapon rotations trying to level each and when I got GAxe to around 7 I replaced my hatchet with Musket to power level it and it's been fun. Do you need a build or something?

I enjoy the game.
Not looking for a build. I just think it's a pairing I haven't seen often. It's been really interesting in both pve and pvp. Just got both to 12+ to finish out the final skills (sniper especially).

It's been great!

PvE has definitely been good just to have the option to go ranged or melee with a group but I haven’t tried it in PvP. I feel like the thing about musket is you want light armor for max damage because you’re not in the fight but for the great axe you want heavy armor because of the CC and being in the fight so max points in strength and constitution. It’s just not the most efficient combo for PvP unfortunately.

ASAPI posted:

Let’s talk about armor. What kind of armor should I be wearing for PvE? My great axe hatchet character feels like I missed something.

If you have a good tank that’s always getting the agro go light for full dmg potential but your best bet is just full heavy for dungeons.

Pussy Snorkel posted:

I don't put any points into dex. It's purely used to engage (and start a burn) and, if they run, finish them off. The main plan is still great axe. It's been reasonable in pvp. Eventually I'll test the build with some dex and see if there's any value in it.

Sounds good. Please post results.

Regarding attacker having wild amounts of power to sweep territory contests/influence. System is working as intended, and small groups can sweep 0-100 in a handful of turnins in order to encourage frequent territory contests, as long as they're not the owner of the specific territory. This is gonna get old real quick lol.

I liked drat near everything about this game but that’s gonna make me want to quit.

I mean, you're not supposed to hold a territory indefinitely. I think flipping every day would be annoying but there's definitely going to be a sweet spot in there. It would get massively stale if a company just holds a place forever.

Don’t get me wrong I can see the reasoning behind it but with this mechanic the only thing saving a war from happening every day is the 48 hour timer for the war in which case a three or four time a week war instigated by two people would get stale as gently caress real quick. I’m definitely about having to do it twice a week for funsies because I even would like the excitement of “oh poo poo we may lose it this time let’s go hard baby!”.

I mean a big thing was I was thinking before launch that it’d happen a couple times a month and I’d take off work the next day because I’d have to stay up late for it since I have to be at work hours before a normal person wakes up. But to be fair that’s just me so I can’t fault a whole game or community for that.

I have zero interest in PVP and no interest in investing big time into an MMO, so far I am liking the game but it oddly feels most like one of those free survival games off Steam, which is no bad thing.
For those above level 10 or whatever, am I backing the right horse here if I just want something I can log into, fish, chill out and dick around with?

Absolutely. Never liked crafting or gathering or fishing in a video game but this one, for some reason, got it right with me.

Just keep your character up and wait and see what they say about server transfer which should be hopefully some time today. If you can then sweet profit. If not then that’d have to be up to you whether you stay where you’re at or reroll to play with goons. :(

He’s absolutely correct that the game does feel soulless and the repetitive quests really do get to you. I logged in today after work and I saw the same 3 faction quests I just did yesterday and I accepted them and decided to log out for now.

I enjoy the gathering but the half baked market board makes selling poo poo not fun.

I dunno. I just hit level 30 and eh I dunno.

I was logging in while watching this and as my character is just standing in town I'm finishing the video. I look at my TV, then look at my computer, back to my TV, and back to my computer one more time and decide gently caress this I'm gonna finish Squid Game.

This is sad for me. I definitely think I've hit the level 30 burnout. :smith:

someone has to explain this memes drama to me.

Church is the leader of Fed, big pubbie Cov company on Royllo that owns three settlements, and is known for only looking out for themselves. Well The Unexpected Thor decided to let Church lead the defense in the war on their settlement and they lost it. But Fed hasn’t lost a single defense yet with their settlements. So running theory is Fed let them lose that settlement so they could get it later.
