Very nice update! Looking forward to the test, one quick question though:
Are the 'website guilds' going to influence the 'in-game guilds' (will that be a preset of sorts, or fixed, or no influence at all)?

Congratulations and thanks!
Keep posting and enjoying your time here folks!

@Logain we didn´t probably understand each other - im pro restriction(...)

I understood you and I agree with you (I am pro restriction as well).
I meant to say that spells/skills are already restricted in a fight in Fractured.
That means it makes sense to do the same for potions (since it is a similar design choice).

@asspirin said in Opening inventory during fight ?:

(...)why would i slot healing spell into such limited bar. Why would i reduce my nuking potential, when i don´t have to. That´s what I mean(...)

It's kind of similar to you having multiple possible spells/abilities, but not being able to switch between them during a fight (until you rest), hence a restriction does make sense.

You might want to check the roadmap from alpha to release, but keep in mind that these are estimates. As you can see, they are a bit behind schedule, but not in a concerning completely off way. You should always add a year to any release date that is further then 2 years in the future, just to be sure

Congratulations to all winners!
May you enjoy your points and get great rewards!

I'd rather they spend their time on developing a great game, especially scoring well on the upcoming stress test is going to be crucial. When there's less urgent issues during Beta, sure, they could devote some time and effort to adding a couple more rewards.

Counter-question, if you're going to to put a picture on a wall, do you shop nails, or do you first search for iron ore, refine it to iron, forge a nail and then use it?
Whenever you can cut corners in software development, you do, that saves time and money and allows you to deliver a cheaper product of higher quality faster.
Now that doesn't mean you should use bad assets, but as long as the quality suits your standards, there is no harm in doing so, just benefits.
As to why the stress test revealed issues under load, that is what a test is meant for, it was rather successful in that regards. If you expect a flawless experience from a test two and a half year before the product launches, you might want to reconsider your exposure to early production stages.

Btw. as an added note, there is going to be a short stress-test for every paid backer followed by one for everybody including people who haven't paid sometime soon. So if you keep your eyes open, you can get a glimpse on the rough structure of the game before paying. Just keep in mind that it is not supposed to be playing the game, as there is no game to play yet, but to test load balancing on the server and improve performance with the generated data.

So what is the expectation for kickstarter?

Kickstarter already happened and was a success.

@romandav said in Fractured Supporter:

The average gamer does not have $90.00 sitting around for immediate Alpha-Beta level testing.

You are aware that there are several examples of projects where people invest not just $90 but tens of thousands of dollar on a game? Star Citizen, Chronicles of Elyria,.. there's plenty. If you wouldn't 'sell' these rewards, how would you entice people to invest in the development of Fractured?

impatiently waiting for news

Congratulations to all winners!

@Jetah said in Week 102 - Weekly Drawing Winners:

oh! so few this week.. what happened?

My best guess would be that there are rather few 'entitled posts' and hence the potential list is too small to select more than a few winners. That should change again soon enough as the 'closed stress test', followed by the 'open stress test' are announced/happening.
