@Gothix said in PVE loot mechanics:
Perhaps players can report bots and sufficient numbet of reports would turn them into FFA target regardless of the planet they are on.
Organized false reporting would obviously bring consequences to reporters.
if you want me to roll a Beastkin.. that's how you do it!
@Meiki
that doesn't ignore sanitary code but allows people to use fires instead of propane/natural gas to cook the food. I'm guessing it's mostly in those parishes where the cajuns would cook it that way.
but i say, if the visually impaired and blind need access to video games, then they should have access to driving.
yeah. this law is so half assed it's horrible. I've never known a "game" to a primary means of communication. I guess if you're thinking of "The Sims" genre but Fractured, and 99% of other games wont qualify.
@Meiki said in Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 (CVAA) (US):
@Jetah Well the wording is offered directly to public - which could be translated to - freely and openly directed to the major public for downloading. But in this case you are actually required to buy to play and so it is not offered directly, but via a payment/purchase. That's the very reason why the bill is so funny to me as a citizen used to european laws. As it is, by its very definition really full of loopholes and bendable wordings. At the same time, so far I know, Fractured is developed by an European (Italian) company and as such does not have to stricly follow any rules outside of those required by Italy and EU. In the worst case scenario that the US requires it to follow the bill, they can just cross out any communication methods in the US version of the client. Which might seem funny, but is a way around the law.
i found it odd that the EU privacy law made a hole bunch of US companies send me an email.
I understand Fractured/DS isn't in the US but they are serving the US and use US servers (which I assume they'll specifically have EU servers too). So i'm curious how it'll effect/affect them, if at all.
and nearly all of US laws are written to have loopholes.
@Crowdac said in PVE loot mechanics:
We should all remember too, loot doesn't really matter as compared to games that have been mentioned, thus far. It seems to me that knowledge and resources(collected through harvesting or stealing) will be far more important, neither of which require a loot system.
Knowledge alone won't protect you nor kill enemies. you'll need gear to increase your damage as the stats should affect ability numbers.
@EvolGrinZ
That could work on the Beast planet but would give them a huge advantage in PvP (as they'd have more raw resources being a coop planet). I'm all for some struggles but I'd want the distribution of resources to be equal. IE if one beast nodes can give 25 raw resources but the equivalent human/demon only gives 3 then there's a problem. Only balance I can think of for that is the beast would need 25 per item whereas the demon/human would need 1-3.
or I just wait for you to harvest it then kill you for it 
@Meiki
supposedly, Anthem (the video game), doesn't have text chat because of this law. Seems if the law didn't mean video games then there wouldn't be a problem at all. And the law wouldn't have been brought up because it doesn't apply to games.
the game is offered directly to the public (unless they mean in more of a Rest Area type).
@chrightt
depends if the numbers are tied to quality materials.
Just wondering if Fractured will comply with the January US Law?

planets are karma locked. race doesnt matter.
demon/beast/human with good karma can be on the beast planet but will have negative stats on tartaros.
@Terragdagreat
i see it on the ground i can take it...
such is the demon way of life.I don't want one attribute to give the highest return.
Eve Online uses 5 attributes and they are ALL required to learn everything. They are paired so that one main attribute isn't used for everything.
I'd love to see Int used for some spells but not all. Str can be used for weapon knowledge but also Dex.
@Eurav
depends if we find a "good" set for 90% of the game.
@Target
i'ma have to find that one. last i heard there were some cut off tiers.
@Eurav
and what thing special will that raid crafting material provide if it doesn't provide better stats?
I'm just seeing many players getting to a point of being bored without a [small] gear grind. Sure we'll lose gear but there should be something that's better than what everyone is wearing which should be crafted, imo.
there are 3 ranks to skills/abilities and some will be locked behind places 'good' and 'bad' can't reach.
@chrightt
they'll have to have a small tier system of gear. otherwise what's the point of their pve raids. Tiers could exist, however, they don't have to be excessive in power. the difference between the rare and basic could be 15% (example). basic 0%, common 5%, uncommon 10%, rare 15%.
without some type of gear progression they game will become stale, to an extent. Even Eve Online has better gear through PvE and research. Their PvE has a few tiers.
@MeninoDeOuro
every piece of clothing you buy has a manufacturer on it. our crafted stuff should have it too! (i can understand your point though)
It is nice knowing <player> made it when you need a new one.
@esher said in Neutral demons able to stay on Syndesia indefinitely?:
We are carebars demons
we'll need spy's and it's the best way.
@lovechildbell
that's true but if you went to that meeting then why wait a year to change the ToS? Seems to me you'd change it just after the meeting.
