i just wanna see the sweet banner image they'd use! the channel icons are a bonus!

PoE is a free game that started as a crowdfunded pay to play test option only.

it's possible for Fractured to do the same, assuming gameplay is great.

when can the discord be verified??

we'd get a neat channel icons, and a server banner area!

@chrightt said in suggestion on attracting huge mass of new players to buy FracturedMMO:

If I were on that stupid planet and find my stuff wiped after 24hrs I would just say this game sucks and never open it again. Even assuming they're downloading a separate game for a "crappy" planet (how are they going to experience different things when people who want to PVP will just screw the guys trying to build houses? No PVP? Then the PVPers won't experience anything).

No offense but I absolutely hate demo versions, I never ever buy the actual game if they sink low enough to make a demo version.

i remember when things weren't "free" and it was pirate or get a demo to see if you liked it. this was well before youtube and twitch streaming nearly every game ever built.

I'm sure if there was a huge DEMO on the screen you'd understand it better. (this assume it isn't free)

@Arkhalis said in What will the gameplay consist of?:

I am writing this to find out what will be the end game result? Will there be things to do after you reach max level? Will there be guilds? How can you make this not boring after you have done things? These are the main four questions have.

there's a "what we know about Fractured" post you can search for too!

@Kralith said in Myr Map (Alpha 1 version):

Nice Map
I wonder, if we get some API to create interactive Maps later on.
Or if Dynamight maybe make an own interactive Map on their page.

Unless it’s changed we’ll need a cartographer to get maps in game.

I’d prefer no maps out of game because it makes too easy.

@Jetah said in Access to Schools of Magic to different races:

all knowledge is accessible to all races.

No, there will be a few race specific skils, but almost all knowledge is accessible to all races

That said, the schools of magic will be accessible to anyone

if it's race specific then i dont consider it part of the knowledge system.

@blubbno1
if you have access to test then the link provided will direct you to the download. OTHERWISE it will bring you to the main website.

so if you see the main site, then you dont have access.
if you see the download link in the Alpha section, then you can test.

forgot to mention that Beast planet can be completely ignoring PvP. meaning when there's an invasion of demons, you can stay 30 minutes away from the portals so you aren't killed or attacked. otherwise you'll have free roam on the planet and may only die to NPCs.

@Pwnstar said in Fracture - MMORPG.com's Top Voted Game in Development:

Will this lead to more people pledging for the game?

maybe. but i feel many people are burnt on the crowdfunding of games because it takes 2+ years when they're advertised/estimated for a year.

The way the gear will be set up, it'll be easy to replace it. you wont have to farm for 2000 wolves to make your leather armor.

arrows might be a different story though.

sure.

you give me your stuff. i give you a stab in the back!

there's like 20 News and Spotlights you need to read!

@Specter
is this question in the FAQ?

@Jetah said in Max players per server/instance/screen?:

@Tuoni
if bots take 2x more resources than a human client and the server can support 500 bots then it can support 1000 players.

without servers/realms i fully expect some type of instancing to load balance the population.

If bots would be the solution then MMOs would not have performance problems and they would not need player made stress tests, but they still have both. With bots, I can imagine how you can create some kind of testing environment to stress the server itself. What you can not get with bots is still the real situation where players are all over the world connected from different starting points with different devices and different connections. So games will still need the real user point of views. So it is really important to gather individual player experiences and precise feedbacks, which can not be replaced by using bots. So it does not matter how much resources one bot can take. In addition, I would not give exact resource capacity (x2 human client) to one bot. Bots can scale what it comes to their performances, resources and contents.

i never said to only use bots though.

@Gothix

CU bots use clients, they can use VPN to route network through the world if they wanted. but I haven't kept up with how the bots work network wise.

@Specter said in Fractured Store Phased out the Week of Alpha 1?:

@Tsoo No, the store isn't going to close before or during the upcoming alpha phase. The packs will eventually get replaced with other packs, but I don't know when.

we'd like a month notice, please, when it's going.

@Lucio said in Max players per server/instance/screen?:

I think we should wait to have enough population to make stress tests...

you'd get more players if the potential customers knew if the game is going to be max 5v5 fights or 200v200

I agree, but how do u test a 200 vs 200 fight in Alpha 1? I think we will be around 300 and we wont play at the same time...
Im sure Devs will take an eye on this as the comunity grows...

camelot unchained is using bots which use more resources than a connected player.
