@Gothix there is no game that the players decided upon the world, it all part of the developers design, and that why you can't have a real sandbox, it's just the how much the developers chooses your action.

For example the developers made ganking profitable then that what most of players will do. But if they made farming profitable then most will do that.

@Gothix your wrong, there is no real "sandbox" game, the developers always decide how the world act, for example if there is many resources in the world , there will be much less reason to fight, and if the world lack resources, there will allot more fighting.

@Tuoni as i said before, i will defiantly give it a go, hope it will be better then how its in my mind.

@Tuoni but you said it, the UK ruled over the world, that what a better technology do, so I do not understand how they will mix steampunk theme with medieval theme, and balance it.

@Tuoni there isn't, i hate when games mix timelines, it always looking to me like there was a lazy writing, "if you can't put cool stuff in your main timeline, just make several timelines - that should be cool." and i do not like this thinking.

@Tuoni i haven't played WOW

@OwlsaneGaming im 100% agree, i do not know how it will be implemented, but how i run it in my head, this will totally break the settings, and probably make me less comfortable in the game.

as 6 years player of albion, i can tell that this the worst game i played, and i still play just because there is no other game like it, up to fractured....
let me list it:

1. grind, never ending stupid grind that have no fun in it.

2. no skill, the best item win, very few builds that are known and all use.

3. PVP connection to reword, it doesn't matter if you manage to kill a t8 boss, or manage to do something good, all the items are connected to PVP and all PVE are just places that force you to meet other players and fight them. players that do not like to PVP and like crafting or gathering or PVE can't go to the top item places since it has 100% death. the developers like to say higher risk = higher reward, but its just bad gameplay.

4. and the most impotent for me you can't play the game solo, even if you find a dungeon that is solo, you will not get from it the same rewards as in 5 players team, for the same amount of time invest.

5. this one should be the most impotent one, the developers are BAD, they use favertisem, and listing to a few player that usually the most P2W players, they called it "the round table", they ban without reasons, if you criticize them, they lie, and do not tell the full truth.

its top in all games too....

@Esher said in Volunteer GM Program:

But everybody has his weaknesses, sadly ^^

that true... players are not good GM.

bad idea, usually player have there drama, and it best to not give players power over other players, in past game i seen it go badly.

@OwlsaneGaming said in PVE loot mechanics:

Albion Online did well on that purpose with the premium + other features that makes botting absolutely not worth it.

half of AO population was, and i guess still is, bots.

@Meiki said in PVE loot mechanics:

What would be a nice compromise would be a personal loot - i.e. loot is still in its base RNG, but everyone gets a roll on it and everyone can get something from the corpse

that what i meant... an RNG option that one will get an item, until the max item for a monster.

@Meiki said in PVE loot mechanics:

...the one who dealt the most actual damage ...

and what about healers ? they will not get loot ? this is very bad way.
drop should be individual, base on RNG %.

In a party play, you should definitely have the option to set the rules to free-for-all, round-robin or master-looter.

only a player should decide if he want to share his loot with the party, or not, in all the games i seen the party leader decide, it been abused. and usually it made people to not want to play together.

@specter well unity is c# and unreal is c++ so yes there should be huge differences, I guess it's not full rewrite but almost.

NPC wage is only needed if you need a currencies sink. in any other way, no need to create a complicated system that people will not enjoy.

@kralith i would have streamed the alfa 1, but i do not have access

while fighting bots is OK, bots is a result of boring and grinding game, if there is bots, that mean the game have some aspects that human hate to do, and i believe that mean that developers need to change this aspects.
