@Kraxis You don't know, if we are really capped.
For sure, for now, in an Alpha state, half way to all implemented core-features, we are probably capped, thats in the nature of an Alpha.
They stated always, that it will be possible to get all available stuff unlocked, it just will take time.
So i am quite sure, there will be enough KP at the end.

I don't think a refund of KP from abilities is the right way.
Because it would lead to a behaviour, where people just unlock the abilitiies they actually need and refund them each time, they want to have others.
It is simply too easy abusable.
You will need to think in early game before you unlock your abilities.

Okay, we droped from Rank 9 to Rank 8, even i payed the Upkeep amount for Level 10 (but not the debt).
That system is weird and not to understand at all.
Well, i don't think it should be like this.
Also the description is wrong again:

Amazing big list!
Congratulation for so many Foundation Points!

@munch We have 45 Citizen registered in Town, we are fine in that case. The drop down i almost expected, because i didn‘t payed fully the upkeep.

@PeachMcD i am appreciating your love
But you need to be fair, we have plenty of good testers in our community, all of them doing a phantastic „job“. I am nothing special in that case.

I am understanding the point with the trees and for this ones they will need some solution in future.
But to be honest, i don't have really a problem with this click to move and point to fight. Mostly it works quite well.
But maybe i am just too oldschool not to have any problems with this kind of movement.

As for Whisps, just kite them out of the dead zone behind a tree.

@Hawkshield said in no progression:

I hope, even with more added critters to KP, would it withstand years of playing?

They planned in first place to make a progression of abilities, like ranks.
That was meaning, the first rank of an ability you get fast, but to progress it, it will need much more time.
In which kind they will do it, isn't clear yet, because of need to stay at a horizontal progressing.
But you will get some kind of Ability Progression, that keeps you way longer playing, than just to get the first unlocked skills just from killing creatures.

@Hawkshield you should not forget, that we just got a small amount of content yet. I am quite sure, they think about how to keep us playing and having long time goals.

@PeachMcD said in [FRAC-2272] still problems with Steel weapons after patch:

@Kralith - do you have any enchanted weapons w metal components? Have you already documented/screen shotted this?

I am just using wooden staffs with shiney Jewels on it
But i had added to Gors Report the enchant of Willpower my Primal Armor, that just shows 0 instead of 100base+50enchant. But if i equiped, the value was added to my char stats.

@PeachMcD said in [Towns] Rank System with logical mistake?:

@Kralith, you are amazing. I hope the devs will put you on staff right after Specter

I am far far away from the Holy Banhammer of Specter.
You know, i am "Nobody" as you are

@David353 Sadly i can't test that as i wanted, since all my abilities are also usable unarmed.

But you actually did not duplicated the item, i guess you just have a bug that the game thinks, the weapon is still equiped, but is not.

Also, did you tried to swap your weapon slots till you are back to the first hand?
Is the Eviscerate still usable in this case?
Does maybe the same happen, if you put your weapon just to your inventory instead to a chest?
Can you use the weapons base attack (right/left click to attack) too or just the Abilities in your action bar?

Yesterday i got this window about unsaved changes at talent presets, when i was opening the packing station, but i could close it with the X. It appeared each time when i was opening a window (Packaging station menu) till i clicked on SAVE.

There was no talent preset i changed lately, i think last time was 3 days ago.

Today, when i was laying down at the Fireplace, it appeared again, but i could not X it nor SAVE it, it just stayed.
I also can't Press ESC for the Menu to Exit.
I can click all stuff, run around, rest again and windows opening, but this "Unsaved Changes" window is always on foreground, but it seems to be like a ghost, since i can click through.

I can use the right lower corner menu to get the ESC menu.
Just relog helped to remove the window.

Refering to my other report about losing ranks, i noticed some other thing, a wrong and very confusing description in the Upkeep Tab.

Yesterday we was Rank 10.
We payed exact the amount of Rank 10, but not the demand for raising to rank 11.
We got debt of missing 150 gold, 8 Cereals and 4 Proteine.
We droped down to Rank 9.
BUT the description on the Upkeep Tab tells this:
"Your city has an outstanding debt and will be demoted to rank 10 when the next maintenance is due unless its debt is repaid full."
But we never was rank 11 to get demoted to rank 10 and we got already demoted to rank 9, directly, not at the next upkeep. Confusing.

Yesterday "Atrium Harbour" was at rank 10.
I decided to test out upkeep mechanic.

My next payment for upgrading to rank 11 would have been 750 Gold, 24 Proteines and 48 Cereals.
I decided just to put in Upkeep for the current rank 10, means 600 Gold, 20 Proteine and 40 Cereals.

But instead that the rank stays stable at 10 as i was expecting because i hitted the rank 10 demands, it droped to rank 9.
Some days ago, when we missed to fill entirely, it feeled right, that we droped one rank down, because we did not even payed current rank demands.
It doesn't sound right, that you drop too, if you payed the rank. But maybe it is intended like this.

True, it can certainly be abused, if it works like i was expecting, but i would appreciate, if there would be some kind of period of grace, where you are able to hold/freeze your rank with just paying the current rank upkeep.

I will test today, what happens, if i just pay the rank 10 demands and not the debt.
Means 600 Gold, 40 Cereals and 20 Proteine.

IF we will stay tomorrow still at Rank 9, because i didn't payed the debt, but the upkeep, then you have almost the same effect, as if you just would stay at the current rank when you pay it.
Then it doesn't make sense to drop down as we did today. Except that you will be able to stay at a rank for the costs of the next rank.
I will update this tomorrow! Lets see, how it will be.

Update one day later:
Okay, we droped from Rank 9 to Rank 8, even i payed the Upkeep amount for Level 10 (but not the debt).
That system is weird and not to understand at all.
Well, i don't think it should be like this.
Also the description is wrong again:

Well, i never tested it, if it works, maybe i should.
If i check the "Allow Corpse Loot" at Guild or Party the item is green.
But after a while it turns white again.
Is this intended and does it anything yet in actual game state?

@grofire said in shitty game:

the game was interduce as one and now its seems changed, and we haven't heard from the Developers on this matter...

But we just guessing, that it seems to get changed, we don‘t know if the plans really changed.
In my opinion they said from beginning, that you will not be able to access advanced crafting, if you are just a soloplayer without citizenship somewhere alone in the world.
At the moment you can have your lonely wolf personal plot somewhere in the world AND you can be a citizen of a town. So there is already the possibility to get access to all content, even you want to be a lone wolf.

Also written for @Roccandil
Hmm you mention me, but you don‘t really refer to my statements.
Well, i can also talk to a wall instead.

I just want to add shortly something about Permissions, because the rest @GamerSeuss already said well.

We figured, at the moment the only way to make a guild only storage is to use the personal plots for that.
The Permissions are actually a bit bugged, because at the moment exactly the "guild" permission doesn't work for your personal plot stuff.
But you can invite all people to your plot, means adding people as a friend to your plot, because the Permission for "friends" works well.
What also works is to invite all people to a party and just set the chests to "party" permission, no need for inviting to the plot.
That will surely get fixed in future tests.

OKAY @Roccandil lets forget his rude stuff, i will cut it out and answering his experiences.
Will that be okayish for you?

@insomnia for you, totally civil:

to give people useless gear and make it a pain to get better.

The starter gear is probably useless, but you can build yourself directly in the Tutorial a bit better gear.
At the moment it is a matter of just few days to get best gear ingame. I do not see any pain in it.
For now, because in future it will not be that easy to get best gear.
As it is in every other game too.
Show me a game, where you get best gear at the first day.

Yet you don't seem to be able to get a better weapon.

Smithing is a way to get better "Warrior" weapons.
Getting Flawless Jewels is the way to get better Mage weapons.
Enchanting is the way to make them even better.
Why you think it is not possible to get better weapons yet?

When you die, you revive weaker, making you die faster.

You do not die, you get KO.
And yes, for every KO you get a kind of debuff that makes you going to the next House or Town to rest and remove that debuff. Thats a part of the game design.

If you respawn at a city, you lose all your shit.

Exactly, if you die, you will respawn at your last resting place or your home.
Just rest at the last house you find before you are going to kill stuff, so your path will not be that far.
Better, take a break from the fighting and go back to a resting place before you die.

So now i have to run where i was, with no gear! ... I died and have to spend what! 20 fucking minutes or so ... Traveling is ridiculesly slow.

Yes, that is intended. But in later game, you hopefully have some Equip stored in the local bank at the last town you rested, to be prepared for such a situation.
Also to have a horse is a good way, to make the run to your corpse less annoying.

And you have no idea where your corpse is

You are responsible to remember, where you died and finding back.
I have played perma death games. In this ones wasn't even the chance to get your stuff back.
Be happy, you don't need to start over here.
And again, best way not to get in such situations is, to stop fighting before you die and go resting and continue fighting after your character is feeling fresh again.

@Roccandil said in shitty game:

And if the responses in this thread are any indication of the sort of player base Fractured would retain, it wouldn't be worth joining.

Well, yeah there was some rude answers to a rude rage. That was to expect.
But that you throw in all responses into the same pot, that makes me litterally sad, because till now i thought you are a smart guy.
What is wrong about responses, that are telling Insomnia, that his experiences and feelings about the game probably was right, but his speech wasn't okay at all?
Who we are, that we need to eat it, when someone is insulting us?
Is it not our right to tell him, that the kind of communication skill isn't okay and he should be more constructive?
We are btw. not the Company, we are customer as you are and as Insomnia is. But as a customer i have a right to expect a respectful togetherness.
We did not criticize his problems with the game, we just criticize his behaviour.
And with what? With full rights!

It doesn't matter, if we are in a niche or in a super duper million dollar baby, respectful interaction is the only rule, that can prevent that our world is going into an Idocracy World.

I noticed, i do not have any informations about amount of Enchantments on my stuff anymore.
Do not know when it happened, but maybe after todays restart?
