Humans and Demons will fight the most battles, while beastcarebears.. err.. i mean beastmen will hide in their safe zones.

one part of using kickstarter is to not need a publisher. or did you mean developers?

No I meant publisher like I wrote.

Developers can make a great game, and then give it to a greedy publisher that can introduce pay 2 win features later on. And developers will not be able to do anything about it because they signed a contract and now the publisher is in charge of finances, and how the game will work from financial perspective.

So developers promises about the P2W (or lack there of) mean very little if publisher that will sell the game will be bad / greedy and will change things around later on.

This is why many people are waiting to see who will publish the game, because they know publishers from their history, and depending on who the publisher is players will decide if they will play the game or not.

@Prometheus honestly here, I think the number of players joining the KS would be bigger if publisher was known.

I think this could easily be major factor here. People have been burned in the past by bad publishers, and I strongly believe that many will wait that the publisher is revealed before deciding about the game.

Humans will also have access to tech, including body enchantments and siege weapons, that could play a huge role in PvP, and specially in large scale battles.

@Logain Chronicles of Elyria is P2W game.

You can outright buy for yourself and for your guild best settlement buildings, best walls, best protection, even legendary gear just by spending thousands of euros through crowdfunding. You can also become king of a zone, or any other title (and titles aren't just cosmetic, you actually control zone and receive taxes from people like that, so $ for in game currency as well). And many other P2W features that I will not get into now.

So if people are willing to spend thousands of euros on legendary gear, on whole cities and to become kings and lords, then it's not a problem for them to spend a bit more on alpha key.

It's a different type of game, that will attract different kind of crowd (P2W crowd).

Linolada of course.

It would make sense that players from same guild or guild alliance also would not be able to hurt each other with friendly fire.

The real question is will the publisher get the rights to change the cash shop offers, and add new items to cash shop depending on their desires and not limited only to cosmetics.

If the answer is yes, then game could easily become P2W, because even if the devs add nothing P2W now, publisher would have the rights to add it later on.

It's also the reason why I am careful with Kick starters, and rather chose to wait for game to be released, to see who is the publisher, and what kind of rights of changing cash shop they have.

Carpenter through KS basically saves you in game currency later on.

Anyone will be able to rent services from carpenter NPC in game, but these services will cost in game currency. By purchasing these NPC services through KS you are saving up on in game currency later on, and you will in this way have more in game currency available for other in game expenses.

@Dagimir for me it works.

Are you sure you are sharing articles while being logged onto Fractured website (cookies allowed), and then using the share buttons below the article itself on Fractured website?

Make sure you are not blocking the cookies in any way.

@gothix
quantity doesn't equal quality [for feedback].

It's why I suggested gifting extra keys (if there will not be enough people in alpha) to active and helpful community members. There is a high probability of a better feedback there.

(And only IF by the time alpha is released, they will feel that they would wish more people in alpha than there are available at that moment.)

@mazikar said in July 3rd Survival & Travel Q&A: List Your Questions:

Will there be travel mounts kinda like seen in other games like EQ2 and WoW that take you from point A to B and kinda show you some interesting spots just cause on the way?

yes, look at the Foundation rewards!

Mazikar was asking if there will be auto travel mounts that take you automatically, you just afk on them while they do the travelling for you (like birds in wow, but not limited to flying mounts).

My guess would be no, but lets see what the devs say.

I wouldn't lower the price for alpha, however if not enough players joins for alpha (Devs feel there should be more people in it for better feedback), then they could offer some amount of alpha keys to the active community members to fill up the spots, depending on how much people devs wish to have in alpha.

For now we don't know yet how many players we will have in alpha, KS is still ongoing, and we don't know how many players devs wish to have in alpha.

If devs will feel they wish more players in alpha than the amount of alpha keys sold, then they can simply offer few more keys as reward for activity, or however they wish to award them.

Will there be a log out timer with a decent duration, so that players can not quickly log out and escape the danger that way?

After player closes the client (ALT+F4), how long will his character stay online before disappearing from the game world? Will this happen quickly, or will character remain for a while so that closing the client isn't used to escape the incoming danger?

If I had to chose one thing to drop, I would drop toxic people from the community.

I would not drop anything from the game, all just feels right the way it is. If something needs more time to be done, I'd rather chose to delay release for a bit and finish that up first, and then release it.

There we go. Let me make my account on MMORPG useful as well.

After ranking my account there up for a bit (so they know I'm not a bot) I was also able to add to the hype!

https://www.mmorpg.com/fractured/hype

@Zidroc you have a great level considering you've only been here for 2 days, lol.

High level people have been here for many months. By logging in each day you get points, the higher level you are you get more points each day. Also you get extra points randomly for being active and helpful in forums.

Also more articles that get published the more points you will have, and promoting Fractured on other websites and in social networks can get you extra points.

And if you are asking if you can have max level on day 1, the answer is no, you can not.

I'm the first who "hyped" Fractured on mmorpg.com

https://www.mmorpg.com/fractured/hype

Nice, I tried to add to the hype, but they said my account is too fresh and missing a rank (I never used account on that website before).

I'll add to the hype when I rank up.

@Dulu valid arguments there. I completely agree.

Firstly though, I must say that I do NOT support publicly accusing people without proof (reports should get sent with report feature first, privately, and any good dev studio will react to those and investigate), however, when it IS proven (with investigation) that someone DID exploit the system (or cheated in any way) this should be delt with swiftly and without forgiveness.

MMO companies that forgive cheaters and exploiters find themselves sinking very quickly. Cheaters have to be banned without a second thought.
