@Jetah said in Fall Alpha Dev Update #1:
please tell me that players will create these roads!!
Couldn't you already build some roads last test, or am I imagining things now?
That said, I guess they should be 'restricted', as in you can't just build roads wherever you want, or you're going to see a very, very strange world after a while.
@casgadom said in Warum interessiere ich mich für Fractured!:
Also für mich wärs einfach wieder mal echt wichtig, dass bei einem Spiel der Weg das Ziel ist... das Erleben, das ständige Drumherum und kein wirklicher "EndGame-Content" außer dem, den sich die Spieler schlussendlich (mitunter jeder für sich) aufbauen.
Wird das nicht trotz allem bei Fractured der Fall sein? Statt 'Level' sind es hier halt die Spells/Skills die man sammelt.
Für der Weg ist das Ziel hätte ich dir jetzt spontan andere Titel empfohlen (wobei ich nicht sicher bin das dies hier erlaubt ist).
@lovechildbell said in Why Magic users will be OP compared to physical users:
(...) having "the best" stats and thats not who this game is made for.
There is a planet specifically dedicated to PvP, so I'm not sure how valid that statement might me. You are right in that one can play 'without that mindset' just fine as Beastman, but there's still other races that might not have that comfort.
@Xulu said in Fall Alpha Launch & Dev Update #2:
(...) In Albion Online (...)
I have never played the game, so I can't really judge what you're stating there or compare it. I'd have to wonder though, if there's plenty alternative, why do people willingly accept basic 'slavery'? If there's some sort of force, sure, that's going to happen. But remember that Fractured is planned to be a massively large world (being a LOT LOT bigger than most other games in terms of terrain is somewhat of a selling point behind SpatialOS) with plenty of cities with plenty of nodes. And you can't just 'dominate' people either, since progression isn't grind and vertical based.
@casgadom said in Warum interessiere ich mich für Fractured!:
Wieso eigentlich gerade die 3 Fraktionen? @Logain
Weil es für mich sehr schön die drei Arten von Spielern (kein PvP, volles PvP, manchmal PvP) wiederspiegelt. So hätte ich es auch designed.
I'd say let them develop and display their vision of the knowledge and interactive/counter/environment battle system first, then test it and then let's provide feedback. They have a rather clear vision, so they should have a chance to get that set and running.
Congratulations to all winners!
Keep posting and having fun!
(And a big thank you to @Specter for the constant dedication and work)
Ich werde ja nicht dabei sein, aber falls jemand einen Rat von mir will, Golden Teeth Mountains, Shrine und Minen direkt neben einer Stadt.
@jetah said in what do you like to see next from the developers?:
(...)why wouldn't you want new cash coming in?(...)
You would want new cash, but at the same time, you want to avoid people seeing the project, thinking that's not flashed out, and heading on without dropping money. There are studies to that field and it's a lot more financially viable in the long term to give people a stunning first impression (if that is possible, and as far as we know, it is, since Dynamight Studios is financially stable).
That doesn't mean you wouldn't give updates to your existing community, which is entirely different from a promotion!
@Sronzer said in End Year 2020 Open Playtest:
(...)how, where and when do i download the game for the playtest?
How/where: https://fracturedmmo.com/play/
When: Right now
A final patch might be required a couple minutes before starting, but that happens automatically when you launch the game.
@loewchen12 said in Alpha 1 Landkarte:
(...)also weeeeiiite Wege zu allen anderen Orten(...)
Genau das sehe ich durchaus auch als Vorteil. Damit hat man weniger Leute die zufällig vorbeikommen und aus Spaß alles ruinieren wollen, wenn man versucht vernünftig Dinge zu testen (wofür ein Alpha build eigentlich genutzt werden sollte).
Any updates on when we're going to see the spotlight (and store and pledge integration)?
Thanks and congratulations to the other two winners!
Keep posting and having fun! 
@kralith said in Alpha 1 Landkarte:
(...)was überhaupt wichtig ist und unsere vermeintlich gut gewählten Plätze könnten sich dann vielleicht auch als nicht so optimal erweisen.
Es ist bei Alphas sehr wahrscheinlich das es eine Menge an 'resets' geben wird, darüber würde ich mir eher weniger Gedanken machen. Und es gibt durchaus wenig Leute in der Alpha 1, also wird es auch mehr als genug Town Slots geben bei denen man einen zweiten/dritten Versuch setzen kann, falls der Erste nicht klappt. Aber es gibt nur einen Spot auf der Karte der genau neben einer Mine, neben einem Shrine und eher abgelegen ist. Und wenn der besetzt ist, bleibt er es wahrscheinlich auch
@kralith said in What can we learn from other similar pojects?:
(...)Staying patient (...)Don‘t release too early(...)
That should only apply to the final product though and even then in a limited form.
Releasing a minimal viable product early on is crucial to 'prove' that you can get things done. And there's a fine line between being patient and getting into feature creep, effectively running out of funds, having to cancel your project in the end.
@GamerSeuss said in Fall Alpha Spotlight – Equipment Progression:
(...)I don't know why people are acting so shocked about this. Yes, you're going to be competing with some other releases and Alphas/Betas, but that's true any time during the year(...)
It's not 'acting shocked', but rather hoping for reconsidering the timeline.
Yes, releases and limited tests happen throughout the year, but there are few MMORPG releases and that's the direct competitor. The majority of Fractured players is unlikely to enjoy FPS, racing games and what have you, a certain amount certainly is, but not the majority. But the amount of overlap with potential New World players is large, since it's the same genre and, let's face it, it is the biggest MMORPG release of 2021.
The last test was nearly empty towards the introduction of siege mechanics. I couldn't find a single group that would siege/defend and these sieges/PvP should be a core consideration for the new item balancing, so you want to have several sieges near the end of the test when people have top tier items, in order to gather real, reliable data for launch, when that is going to be the case (or, if it ain't you have different problems).
Not shocked at all, but trying to act in a way that I hope and consider to be in the best interest of the game.
@Filou said in Alpha 2 – Test 4, starting in October 2020!:
(...)das Forum tot und die evtl, neuen Spieler verlieren das Interesse an dem Spiel(...)
Das Problem gibt es mit und ohne 'lebendiges' Forum. Spieler die ein 'Spiel' erwarten sind immer enttäuscht wenn Sie auf einen Titel treffen der wirklich 'early access - alpha testing' offeriert, denn die Zyklen für neuen Content sind viel. viel länger und der neue Content bedeutend weniger als bei fertigen Spielen. Und selbst fertige Titel haben oft Probleme Spieler zu halten.
Neat! And congratulations to the developers!
Hmm... I wonder if I should actually consider playing as human now...
Is there a specific reason why you're taking a nearly 4 years news post, edit is slightly, repost it and delete the old one?
@casgadom said in Deutsche Gilden?:
Naja ich find eigentlich nicht das Problem, dass es zuwenig Informationen über Gilden gibt... (...) und da wart ich gerne drauf
Wieso, es gibt doch null Information über Gilden, was sie können, was sie nicht können... wie könnte mann denn da vernünftig planen?
Und eben, das war ja die Aussage, gerne drauf warten, aber eben noch keine 'aufmachen'
