@tulukaruk said in Just a(some) quick question(s).:

Wouldn't that be the same with some kind of shop NPC (or AH) where you go and make an order for said 200 sunflowers for 50g. Basically everyone that sees it can go collect the flowers and first person that brings them can sell them. You deposit that 50g when making an order and then can pick it up after it's done. What's more that way you can sell in parts - in this example 0.25g per sunflower - so people can sell you some and you'll get to that 200 faster.

With quest NPC you could also post quests for a lot more things (not only buy sell), you could contract someone to kill specific targets, cut down woods in specific area so you can build a house there, go to specific areas and do something else there, make a mercenary protection contract, you could really contract someone for anything.

On AH you can only ask for material goods, and nothing more (you can't ask for actions).

@gothix
that's about how it happens in Eve Online which the other thread I linked covers.

instead of a quest though the contract just stays within the UI. I wouldn't say a contract is to "gather" an amount of something but is just created as "200 of an item for a certain price". which really it's just a buy order that an AH or exchange would have.

Yeah, a "quest method" would allow for more possibilities compared to what "buy offers" can do.
Basically anything that quests can do: gather stuff, kill stuff, visit a place, solve a puzzle,... you name it.

No shotgun needed, those topless demons are HOT!

@dulu said in Anyone here playing Classic WoW? eXploited is..:

The #2 overall guild, and the #1 ranked Demon guild will be adventuring into Classic World of Warcraft, to stay busy while waiting for Fractured.

While there, we're going to get some legendary weapons, high warlord titles, scarab lord, slay Kel'Thuzad... you know, no big deal.

We're recruiting.

www.exploitedgaming.com

That is if classic WoW comes out before Fractured,... khm.

I'd do that with a contractor NPC (or a bulletin board) in a town.

1. Player that wants to offer contract specifies over NPC (or a board) UI what he wants done (example: gather 200 sunflowers) and how much he is paying (lets say 50g).
2. This is converted by game into quest that's acceptable by other players over board UI, and 50g is taken from contract giver.
3. Any number of players can accept the quest, but only the first player that hands it in can collect reward (50g), at which point quest vanishes from the board offers, and from everyones quest logs (other people can keep sunflowers they collected thus far if quest vanishes and can use them for other purpose).
4. Contract giver can check board from time to time to see if quest was delivered by anyone and when it was, he picks up sunflowers that waited for him at the board.
5. If no one did the quest for a while, contract giver can chose to cancel quest from the board prematurely, and collect his cash (50g) back. At which point quest disappears like in example from an above.

• There could be a fee to post a contract (or not).
• There could be a limit to how many contracts a player can post (or not).
• There could be a fee to cancel a contract offer prematurely (or not).

@target Question is, is it something where you have to engage in PvP, or just lore and the like that's onlt present there? Big difference.

Good luck going to Tartaros and not getting engaged.

@kakcoszukha said in Ok, what's happening?:

One of my friends dragged me on this game, and it looks pretty darn cool, but I have NO FLIPPING IDEA what it is. It seems like a cool concept, and I'd like to be a part of it, but I'm not entirely sure what "It" is. Help?

https://fracturedmmo.com/news/page/7/

Start here, and read the spotlights. Page 7 is the oldest, and then articles go to newer towards page 6, page 5, and so on.

My gaming community is desperately hoping for some nice MMO to play. Everyone complains how there is nothing good out there. I occasionally throw some new info about Fractured in community channel.

@grofire said in [Poll] PvP or PvE, now with more precise scale!:

i wonder what the people that vote "PvE focus with moderate PvP (Focus on PvE, but jump into PvP if some nice action happens nearby)" thinks that mean?

It means exactly what it says.

@therippyone said in [Poll] PvP or PvE, now with more precise scale!:

I picked PvE focus with moderate PvP, but honestly, it ought to be PvE focus with light PvP

If Fractured ends up done nicely, who knows, it may just become a moderate PvP for you.

@jetah said in Just a(some) quick question(s).:

@therippyone
either DS creates the systems in game or someone creates a website that does the same thing. either way people who want to buy goods will find a way to get them without resorting to spamming trade chat all day.

I'd prefer the systems be in game myself.

Contracts are a way to enforce a "contract giver" to make payment after a job is done. Everything else (community organized) people depend on trust. This basically means people would mostly just do such business inside own guild, and with few people on friend list. Rest would be rare exceptions.

Existence of contracts would create a healthy job industry that stretches across planets.

I usually just use arrow keys and mouse. Mouse has multiple buttons, and I just bind all skills to there.

TLDR: just enjoy playing your class and don't bother with what other are playing. When PvP happens, just use your skillz and pew pew.

Thing is, you can not avoid PvE in any MMO because PvE gets you levels (where you have levels), gear, skill points etc. There hasn't been a single MMO yet where you can obtain all this (effectively) through pure PvP.

This is why PvP players are used to doing all content, and there is no full PvP focus votes, because you simply can't play like that.

On the other hand PvP gets you nothing extra that you can not gain through PvE, and PvE players can (if they wish so) avoid all PvP and still get their characters to their maximum effectiveness.

Things would be a lot different if players could gain all through PvP, without the need to touch PvE at all, or if PvP gave players a half of needed things for character progression (half progression obtainable through PvE, half through PvP).

So far in MMO world things have always been biased towards PvE in this aspect, and PvP was (sadly) always looked upon as "an extra", as something you can do, but isn't needed to progress your character.

I really enjoy good PvP action, specially the organized large scale / GvG battles. But I also love smaller scale skirmishes very much. Even if I love good PvE, I enjoy good PvP more.

This basically means I will quit whatever I'm doing in PvE (unless it's organized raid/dungeon, I will not let my group down of course) when nice PvP action happens and I will jump right into it.

This is why I voted PvP focus with moderate PvE (basically, I PvE while there is nothing interesting going on in PvP).

Poll options say it all.

@kongthemonkeyking said in just so people can chat:

I made this just so I there can be a place where people can talk

Thanks man. We don't know what we would do without you.

By the way, join official Fractured discord at: https://discord.gg/CQ5VrDf
Some nice chats going on there sometimes.

@Jetah true. Problems and Solutions could then have extra sub sections tied to certain theme.

Problems and Solutions

• website
• store and payment
• community issues
• ...

Each of these subsections could then have it's own locked and pinned Q&A thread and players could create their own separate threads about issues they discover.

Alpha 1, Alpha 2, Beta 1, Beta 2,... could be added as subsection to Problems and Solutions (and locked / archived afterwards) or could be added to completely separate parts of forums and not tied to Problems and solutions section at all.

@jetah said in Mobile website:

@prometheus

We could use a separate sub for website issues.

Sub section could just be called Problems and Solutions and it could be used for all issues, website and otherwise (website, store, payment, community issues, future game issues, alpha / beta issues if it will not be under NDA,...).

A locked and pinned Q&A thread (or more threads, website Q&A, store and payment Q&A,...) can be posted in this sub section for issues (and solutions) that are already known, and these pined threads can be updated by devs (or mods) as community notices new important issues and discusses / solves them in separate threads there.

@kyltira said in Материки:

Привет меня интересует об самой игре то, что все действия проходят на одном матетрике или это группа материков или островов. И ещё то каких они размеров и хватит ли ресурсов на всех?

I think you will get answers that you can better understand in this section of the forum:

Give a yell to @muker he is pretty experienced with game theory already.
