@Tuoni
the information gained is worth more though. there's a huge difference between someone who's tested in alpha - release vs someone who played at release (or during a sale). I play Overwatch, levels dont mean power, but they do mean game experience. I've seen people below level 100 make horrible mistakes because they didnt have the knowledge that a player at level 300+ would have.

I just see the pettiness is saying "they offered a small discount so i'm pissed" view when everything has a sale! The point of KS offering an early bird has a good point too.

I'm more worried about exclusives than price. I want more people in the game but if DS said something would be exclusive then it needs to be exclusive.

@waynestonchurchill

our arena's are call worlds. generally, developers don't want to add 'gambling' into their game because of legal issues.

@benseine

nerf weapons!

I can't believe I have to remind you again..

post this as an update on KICKSTARTER too!

and here I am not wanting anything instanced.

@baslak

the only game i know that made a single server work is Eve Online. and it doesn't require a low ping to play.

@Jetah @Logain

does these numbers realy matter?
I think Znrif already gave us a quick summary about what problems occurred.
Also what we have now on data is not reflecting what will happen once the Beta starts with more players on the server.
So the data we have now may become invalid since the server capacity will be expanded with more players as well.

i like numbers. no other reason to ask for them.

I don't see how instanced pvp or pve is going to be viable in an open world game with pvp.

@gothix i believe discord can be integrated into games. so they could offer in game voip, text chatting while it works out of game too. unless discord killed the project.

oh boy!! cant wait to see the videos about this one!

@finland

i want to point out that fractured isn't Albion. Just because Albion did something doesn't mean fractured will copy it. WoW has scaling mobs and they never became so powerful that they 1 shot people!

again, mobs don't need to scale up their damage to 1 shot players. I'm not sure why but every time you mention Albion I become pissed.

Kickstarter soon
Alpha after
Beta after
Optional open beta
Release

Buy yacht!

@Psymantis said in Open Alpha 2 Weekend & Test Extension:

I'd be very suspicious if everything went well in an Alpha test.

I'd expect a Beta to run reasonably well but Alphas are often POC in my experience. That's Proof Of Concept and Piece Of Crap.

To me, it's a privilege to see the game at this stage and we can look back and remember how it's improved.

that privilege is no longer the case though. developer/publishers have figured out that people are willing to pay for that access. I haven't heard of an Alpha Stress Test before but I'm glad they found the problem now than in a Beta ST.

@Ildirettore @Gibbx @Finland They are indeed working hard. As you probably know, Prometheus was very busy the last few weeks with securing funding for Fractured. He was originally going to reveal more details about it this week, but due to an unforeseen issue, he'll probably reveal those details next week instead. As for the spotlight, due to all the work that went into securing said funding, he hasn't been able to finish the spotlight yet. I have no further information about the gameplay footage, other than that it's being worked on.

Have someone else write it and get Prometheus to approve it. I know he's busy but this is setting some bad president.

offline games are dead. we live in a connected game world.

@FallenW1ng

bitches gonna bitch.

but odds are they moved on so we wont have to worry about them.

@mazikar but you still could. problem is when that content is last expansion and the new gear doesn't look as good. You may say "man that Natures defender and Fiery Avenger looked so much better" then you could get that look but retain the new gears stats.

should be a pinned FAQ too.

This Review was very insightful and I really enjoyed it. I'm glad you wrote what the problem was and how it was determined to fix it. I also liked how you admitted there was a problem, which isn't happening much in the gaming development world.

Thanks for the Review!

@Prometheus I'll say it again but a little note to the Kickstarter backers could be done too. The email with a little information with a link to the full update would be enough to keep those backers informed.

if i kill it can i loot your vault? can i own the pet?
