She's got good hair, why is the dude bald?

Finding that today I can loot corpses that I didn't kill, if the person that did, left something behind. So far only running across stags and such to test, but might be good to look at the permissions on loot rights for the rest.

The cake is a lie

Where???

On discord. He said it was going to be by today, but then they delayed it because of Milan Games.

It's about the knowledge system.

Also, when they say by the end of the week their week ends on Sunday.

sounds like it's time to dig in finally...

@FibS yes, it's early days still, but that's part of the excitement here, and you need to stick around for that.

I've said it before, if you've ever played a game that you loved, and want that again, then you've got to fall in love and see this one through, you know like I do, that the concept and scope of this game if brought to vision, will be that game. You said you've dreamed about it!

So, the crowdfunding thing... I too don't like spending a lot of money on a game... but for the past 7 years I have been looking for a game to fall in love with like I'm hoping to here. I've played a bunch of other games (and am playing some now, one is pay to win and I've spent far more than is sensible on the little entertainment and zero love I have for that game.) but nothing has come close, not even close, to games I have loved in the past. And I mean LOVED.

At least not multiplayer ones, and that's the thing here that has me so excited, I can go play a single player game at any time, but for multiplayer, there just hasn't been a game that appeals to so many different play styles while still promising that mmo experience I like, that I think it'll mean I can bring a lot of my gaming friends to it to play with. Just the sheer scope of this game, you've gotta stick around to see it happen!

I don't know what you see in it, if it's the same thing I do, but what I see in it has had me stick around quietly waiting for the KS. I put in more money for this game than I have at the start of others, and did go for governor over immortal just for that starting town, because I have guildies, and to me it's worth spending a little bit extra for them. Sure I get a cool new skin for my horse, and probably cool armour and get to have an emerald badge and a different looking house... but really, the benefit of governor isn't for me, it's for the people I'm trying to entice to the game. I've spent a few thousand in one of our other games already, by the time the game would roll around here, I'd already have spent another few thousand.

I'd seriously kick myself if all I did was buy a beta and they ended up failing for lack of funds, and where I can afford this and you can't, it would be wrong of me to just buy a lesser pack. (really wish I could pledge more even)

So you don't get into the alpha, so what? The alpha hopefully will be a series of test runs where they have players running around testing different things to make sure it works and to make sure it's balanced. If you've never done testing before, alpha is when you go in to test parts of the game, generally most of the features are not even ready yet. You may be able to test one race, skins may not work, you may not have any pvp in the first tests, maybe just exploration. Key components may not have been added... but during alpha there are updates and things get put in bit by bit, but the thing to remember is it's not a complete game yet.

You really dont want to "play" alpha without realising this. Yes, people go into the alphas looking for things to break. Some want to break it to exploit it for their own gain, some are griefers and some want to make sure the game works well. But not being in alpha should not be the be all and end all of what excitement you get. I can bet that we won't even have all the feature spotlights out when they open it here. I can bet that many of the core features of Fractured won't be implemented at the start. It's possibly that world restriction happens in each test phase, with no travel between planets.

So don't fret. If they open up an alpha section of the forum, then players will share in there. I know several plan to stream, I may as well (haven't decided if I'll do public or private) but once the players are allowed to share, then they will.

But this game, leave out the crowdfunding, pretend the alpha hasn't been announced yet. Just look at the features and scope, look at the story here for it (and devs you need to introduce the lore of the planet a thousand fold more than you have) but don't walk away from this one.

It could be that one true love you've been waiting for.

Mercs are always fun, as are bounty boards.

Definitely a Whovian

@greenfire how can you post a pic like that. It does not look like a fake.

1. I went to google, and typed in tiger fur rug.
2. I clicked on "images"
3. I right clicked on the image that I liked and chose "save image as" and then saved it to my desktop.
4. I created a post on the forums, and chose the option to upload a photo, and then chose the photo in question. The little cloud image above the reply box is the correct option in this case.
5. Click submit and done.

now comes the mad refreshing for anyone looking for an invite...

Yes Die Hard is a Christmas movie! So is Gremlins, and so is Lethal Weapon.

I'm interested in knowing what types of foods are available, and if you can survive on the planets with a restrictive diet or not?

For example, if I want to only eat things that bleed, will I suffer in any way by avoiding berries, and fruits and plants or such?

Will it depend upon race? I know the beastmen, some will have taken form of obligate carnivores, some of herbivores, will they be able to eat of animal or plant kingdom equally as if they have evolved to become omnivores? Or will they need to stay within the restrictive diet their primal forms started with?

Will demons be more powerful if they consume only by killing?

Could what we eat affect our constitution depending on our food choices in real life?

So as alpha approaches, anyone in place to join in this town, I'll plan to make it US based as Kralith's will be Europe based. If any of you want to jump onto my discord to start planning who's going to have what role, please be my guest. Just let people know you're there for fractured, I'll set an alpha role up.

In fact, if you're not on this town but still want on the discord for when alpha starts, you're more than welcome to, I have an open room which I'll add you to.

There's a couple general chats for non game related stuff too, can be pretty crazy in there some days, but the more the merrier.

Also any language welcome, there is a privately owned translation bot that works really well, if English isn't your first language, it's pretty easy to use, and a spam room exists for which to do that.

Just let the people there know you're there for fractured alpha, and they'll grant you access to the game based rooms.

Depends. I'll probably create a few characters of either gender, then I just play the one I like best more. If a game only has one option, I tend to pick my own gender, probably just cause it's easier.

Will blasphemy result in debuffs?

@muker In the meantime, do you personally have something against player speculation? Or is it just habit that you try to shut down conversations?

@holyhong okay, you'll be able to rest and prepare to do different things when you are rested, but your attributes will remain the same. I can imagine that if you are a fighter, you'll set your attributes so that you will be good at the style of fighting you prefer to engage in. You'll go out in the world intending to gather the knowledge required to run that as well as you can, and are less likely to be looking around for the knowledge needed to be a great crafter.

You might be able to do some basic things but in this game with the way the player driven economy will be, you'll probably prefer to go kill things and trade what you get in order to get gear. Otherwise you'll have to spend time running around looking for things to make it, and furniture with and you won't be able to spend as much time running around fighting. So you'll find a good crafter and employ them in your guild and put them to work, giving stuff to them so that they can make it for you and your guild mates while you run around killing stuff.

So yeah, I really don't see anyone but completionists gathering every single bit of knowledge so that they can do everything. Nor do I see people who prefer to pvp doing their own crafting when they can get another player to do it.

What race are you thinking of? I would happily add a crafter to my guild.

@gothix oooh I love a safari

@gofrit bunnies in the KS video made me giggle
