@Pluto so you think people want 2 subs? Imo that wouldnt work and would make the company look greedy

No. I think you will notice that I mentioned a true sub model is not possible at this time. It would have had to be a discussion before any packs were ever sold

A true sub model involves a monthly subscription to pay for the base game and all updates. There is no VIP, no convenience items, but there could still be cosmetics

But they could make the vip almost mandatory like eso does with the infinite crafting bag.

Not that I'm suggesting they do it's would be fairly scummy

@Tuoni

BDO has convenience items. Heck, doesn't the new anti p2w archeage have convenience items?

Yeah BDO has convenience items, but I do not have any knowledge about Archeage. Sorry, but I guess I missed your point.

"Many gaming companies do a good amount of money with cosmetics"

I was just saying this statement is pretty false for mmos. Most have cosmetics and convenience items. Which I think is completely worth it to keep out enchanted equipment and gem rolls haha

Ideally a subscription model would be nice. But since DS started selling packs without requiring a sub, that would be quite the can of worms to open.

The vip is a sub, and if it needed to pull more people in you could always have a little more convenience like a extra crafting bag

And if those things lend to you having a greater advantage over myself I will be one of the first to quit the game. Your lifetime will have a very short life expectancy if others feel the same and don't have fun because of it. The difference is I will be out less money if the game fails.

Dont think having more time to resource collect or not having to house manage = pay to win, as the difference between no lifeing and making up 2-3 hours because you have a npc tending your house is insane, some of these no lifers, will smash 20 hours in a day, should they be limited too because it's not fair they have more time then the people who work?

@Aries said in Just starting an uproar:

Soo have you checked your profile for the rewards you should have received with your character lvl? Yeas we know we all know we wont recive mounts but have you received the other items? Just curious if anyone has bothered to check?. I asked this not to long ago but the devs dont like my questions but are quickly to answer the most simple questions. I'm getting tired of being ignored by this dev community knowing most of them from past experience from our linkrealm days so question is if you stuck around like most old players from the old days like me with a bunch of us is your questions going to be answered or just monitored with a normal response or just ignored in general? Let me know your feed back. Sorry in advance for the bad English

Here is the answer to some of your question.

Likely the other items will be added closer to live all at the same time

@Gibbx said in Optimistic, but Hesitant:

@FrostyWimbly So far this game has given every signal that optimism is warranted. That being said nothing is without risk. Personally Fractured is offering everything I am looking for in a game. When I decided to back if financially I risked nothing more than I was willing to loose. I have thrown a lot of time into the community, but have enjoyed that very much. The community has already provided my initial investment's worth. I believe the dev's will put out a solid product. it doesn't have to be 'great' just a nice solid game making good on their premise. This is a good community and I am looking forward to adventuring with them!

First: I want to ditto exactly what @Gibbx said.

I don't have a lot of $$ to plow into gaming, so I've played LOTS of 'freemium' games that ding you endlessly w commercials and micro-transactions, only to be dominated by the P2W whalemonsters. I'm trying a new thing here - paying up front for the whole game, with a level field and lots of room for variety and creativity.

It's your money, @FrostyWimbly. Feel free to lurk and get to know this community, if that will help you decide. We'll be happy to welcome you, whenever you take the plunge!

Yeah I donated s bit more then I normally do but I wanted the infinate vip, hope it pays off.

And I too enjoy the community, cant wait to have a live server.

Great work guys, is the fire buff a toggle?

@asspirin said in Human passives:

So no passives, right. Will those guns / steam stuff give something to humas that will be completely different to bow and unobtainable by other races? Or will firearms be only bows with different skin and maybe bigger dmg numbers (and huge reload times)?
I hoped for example more talent points to compensate absence of other race passive bonuses. Doesn´t matter, didn´t want to roll one anyway, just curious

There is more stat points at char creation so humans are more versitile/can be good at anything

Wonder if we will have healing pets

@MrTimo I think the Human world is going to be the largest landmass, IIRC.
Resources are spread out some you can only find in certain locations/planets

I cant see why they would cap the population, if the servers are to crowded they may add queues
Its likely Resources will be fine tuned a lot more in beta then they will in alpha.

Help I need somebody not just anybody, I need you...
