@Jetah said in Magic resistance?:

this is also a game where the player has to dress for the environment. according to high int playing, the temp of areas wouldn't matter as they'd always have resistance to it.

INT will give you resistance to certain kinds of Magical (Damage). The character sheet actually calls them Magic Resistances. Heat, Cold, Moist I have never considered to be magical (maybe a sunset you sometimes consider magical :P)

Therefore I see no direct connection, being able to handle high or low temperature for example. I still expect you to need the proper equipment for being in certain environments.

And before people start to play the RL card again, this is a game, ever seen a deer walking on 2 feet wielding a sword or a bow ? Not everything (or mostly nothing) will be like RL or logical

@Xzoviac said in Completionist Titles:

killing enough of a certain mob to get a title, such as 1000 chickens and you get Chicken kicker

eat 1000 chickens and you get Chicken Licker

Lick 1000 frogs and you get the title: "Prince Hunter" or "Princess Hunter"

@asspirin said in Magic resistance?:

Save vs spells is understandable, because everyone has probably played some ADaD game, but magic resistance is totally not clear to me.

Int should rise it (up to 36% on 18 INT, probably 50% with 25int), then abilities like Mage armor(23% at 18 int, 30% at 25 int). If these are additive, then only 1 ability might give you 80% resist to magic (if it´s not capped to like 50% or so).

As there are resists to elements, will general magic res simply reduce any non-physical damage? Let´s hope there will be enough debuffs to do it or that it will have cap, otherwise mage vs mage might take a while if both regularly heal themselves

As far as I have seen "Magic Damage" is separated from other sources of damage and not considered Elemental damage: Magic Missiles does Magic Damage, Fireball does Fire damage, Chilling Touch does Cold damage etc.

So that would mean it doesn't give resistance to all non-physical, just to one kind of damage. Even If that wasn't the case it would make all other non-physical resistance obsolete. Which would be a big flaw in game design

Besides that: due to the long cd's on healing abilities, you can, of course, equip multiple healing skills, but that would leave no room for damage skills.

In Alpha 1 my Magic resistance was 86%, but there was no cap on INT that time (I got to 27, where it will be 25). On the other hand, my physical armour was capped to 400. Still very vulnerable to physical damage.

As a completionist myself, I can only 100% agree!

Let's relax a bit and imagine demons devouring the corpses of their victims, feeding on them and filling their hunger... Doesn't that sound great?

Another reason for me to stay on Arboreus and grow Old in peace

Weight certainly affects speed in some amount.

Fastest horse by far !

@asspirin said in Character Customization?:

@Yitra for 10 minutes, before you make helmet

Lol, In my case I expect that to take 2 days: First day I will get lost at least 20 times and probably drown in even the smallest stream I can find. In between getting killed even by deer and rabbits over and over again.

But day 2 will be glorious !

More choices are always welcome, unless you suffer from Aboulia ofcourse. But yeah, with the isometric approach not as import as in other MMO's.

Although it would bug me if I am surrounded by 20 people all looking kinda the same. Especially in the beginning of the game I do not expect a lot of variation in armour and/or cosmetics, so there will character customization will help to feel "unique"

Lovely, and Grats to the other winners !

@Andrew12 said in Subscription:

Hi all! I’m new to the Fractured community. I’m wondering if this game will be subscription based like most other MMOs or follow the Guild Wars style where you buy the game and that’s it. Thanks and I’m excited to join the community!

In addition you will be able (optional) to pay for a VIP membership which will give (as far as we know for now):

"VIP membership is a monthly subscription planned to be priced around $10/month. It provides the following perks:

Discounts on Store items
Unique cosmetic rewards for accumulated VIP time
Other vanity rewards we might think of in the future
Additional study slots
Increased Knowledge Point gains"

@Orky said in No Trick, Big Treat: Alpha 2 Launch Revealed:

@LilCassiopeia To ad to what you said (<-don't know if it's some good english, sorry if it isn't) i used to play another alpha before knowing this one, maybe you know it maybe not but World Adrift was such a great game even if it lack content and many major feature where not yet implemented.

I still cry at night about the loss of that Game. What ultimately killed it was that the concept of the game did fail by technical problems which they could not solve, not even with the support of Improbable. By looking for more developers using SpatialOS I stumbled onto this game.

Armors won't slow your attacks but:

Medium armors won't allow you to cast spells
Heavy armors won't allow you both to cast spells or move in stealth mode.

Paladin style is off the table then

Unless the definition of spells is different then I think. @Znirf Can you enlight us on that?

@Daz said in Upgradable Pets:

Pets start as cosmetic, but u can upgrade it to also be a combat pet, then upgrade it further to allow access to your vault etc the list goes on.

Pets being able to give you some extra inventory on the road, by carrying a bag for you is something that would fit the game.

But as there is no worldwide access to your vault/bank/storage or whatever, getting access through a pet would not make sense then.

@asspirin One thing is for sure. No Resto Druid duels:

MrTimo said in Healing:

How is healing going to work in pvp vs pve? Will there be alot of different cleansing spells, buffs, etc...

There won't be any differences between PvP and PvE. We'd like to create a balanced system giving you cooldowns and mana costs that won't allow to spam healings. For example, there will be "consumable spells" that will use your HP as a cost

Will the items/pets from the shop be available/ready to get tested?

By lack of inspiration and news

@Orich said in Kinda wish Reddit was used more than these forums.:

I browse reddit a lot, and every other game has a very active community. Reddit is extremely convenient for most of us ... it feels like Fractured pushes a little too hard to leverage what feels like an antiquated forum.

I am considering myself a relic, so antiquated is my thing !

It really is a matter of taste, I have tried to get the grasp on Reddit several years now, but I always get brain damage by using it, to much info, too clustered to easly read post and responses

What I do know that several games had their Reddit "channel" started by fans and in a later statium converting to an offical one (same on Discord) . If there really is a need for a reddit channel, some people (or you ?) can start it up ?

Congrats Folks !

@Znirf said in Critical strikes:

Only Perception will give you bonuses to critical damage and critical chance.

Are you sure, as with Dexterity at a minimum of 11, you also had 1% crit chance in Alpha 1

@Jetah said in Critical strikes:

you dont see a problem with putting critical damage and chance behind one attribute? because it will be a problem later on when gear stats start to climb. Perception could be increase crit chance but crit damage should be another stat. this also deters single stat stacking which was tried in other games and didnt work out. even Luck, if a stat, could be used for Crit Damage.

The maximum value for stat will already be maxed out on 25 (not implemented in alpha 1 yet). Splitting crit chance and crit damage over 2 stats could complicate building your character. On a human you can only max 2 stats (to 18), 3 is possible but then you get severe penalties on the rest of the stats as you have to withdraw points there and get below the 10 value.

Melee in general will focus on Strength and Perception, Caster on Intellect and Perception, with some small variation in the minor stats. Taking crit damage out of Perception would mean a complete overhowl of the way your charater will be build. I don't see the need for that. Or do I miss something here ?

@Tuoni said in Is there a specific date for Alpha 2 testing to start?:

@PeachMcD Hmmm... Maybe DS should take part for the Black Friday and strike with huge advertising and with real discounts...

I was thinking .... a small discount on Black Friday Sabbath Cape.....=> me thankful!
