@benseine said in Farming (crops):

Wondering if you can also plant trees to grow that will take long time to mature

@chrightt said in Farming (crops):

Are you guys going to make this the same as crops irl? If 4 hours is 1 day in game, then does that mean crops that take 2 months to grow will take 10 days irl time to grow (or is time the only variable that will be tweaked)?

We'll definitely have plants in players' farms that take a while to mature (up to several days), but obviously we're going to take some liberties with times - we're not building a farming simulator here

Hi @Xesh - I've played Mortal Online, and I can't find many similarities with Fractured. Perhaps the most striking differences are:

• MO is skill-based, Fractured has an horizontal progression system known as Knowledge System which is different from both level-based and skill-based systems.
• MO is first-person with FPS-like controls, while Fractured is isometric with ARPG controls.
• MO has a strictly hardcore target, while Fractured tries to cater to friendly/cooperative players too thanks to its unique race and universe design.

Then there are plenty of other differences on topics like crafting, character creation, interactions with the environment... No, I wouldn't say Fractured is close to MO - they're both sandbox MMOs, and that's pretty much about it :slight_smile:

@Finland you'll be able to declare war, sign alliance treaties and even non-belligerency ones. It's been discussed a few times As for economic treaties, we haven't planned them so far - mostly because there's no hard-coded limitation to trading, so what would a FTA do besides being a "symbolic" declaration? :slight_smile:

@mathcs1 said in The school of Restoration!?:

Is school of restoration the only healing school to follow if you want to be a healer ?

There are healing and support spells scattered around other schools as well, with different mechanics. However, don't forget you aren't really meant to to build a character with Restoration spells only - or with spells from one school only in general

@chrightt said in Win a Pre-Alpha Key with The Foundation:

Hopefully 100 or so keys are handed out I haven't checked foundation leader board for a while to see the activeness of players, but I hope top 100 or at least top 50 get to try it out.

Certainly more than 100 and less than 1,000

@logain said in Week 01 - Weekly Drawing Winners:

Would it be much overhead for you to include the number of participants in future announcements for the statistic nerds like me @Prometheus ?

We'd rather not disclose that to avoid wild speculations :slight_smile: Anyway, well over 50 in this case.

@muker said in Week 01 - Weekly Drawing Winners:

@prometheus I was interested in which posts were made by the winners, could you next time also attach their work)

You can easily check them yourself by clicking on the names of the winners and looking at their post history

@darian said in Racial Weapons & Armor?:

I'd approach this by giving different attributes to different types of armor. Not different in the sense that one is straight stronger than the other, but each would favor a different play stile. Let's say beast-men armor will be less encumbering and allow slightly faster movement, human armor would provide slightly better defense and daemon armor gives a small damage buff

That's exactly how it works - although there's no such a thing as "beastman armor" or "human armor" but, as I've said, types of armor that can be more easily produced by different races due to access to recipes and resources :slight_smile:

@Finland purtroppo siamo un po' carenti di personale sul community management - me ne sto occupando direttamente io, ma il mio tempo è limitato, quindi faccio quello che posso :slight_smile: Sicuramente i pledge reward più importanti includeranno canali di contatto speciali, ma in generale no, non siamo preoccupati -
siamo apertissimi al feedback, ma abbiamo una visione molto chiara per Fractured :slight_smile:

@Meangroundhog seasons will be a thing, yes, and they'll impact agriculture on top of other areas of gameplay (such as travelling). In general, the whole weather / climate system is very important in Fractured - in the case of agriculture, it means some plants will only grow in specific planets, specific regions, and times of the year.

We'll have a feature spotlight dedicated to farming in the future, so stay tuned! :slight_smile:

@deadashe said in Key for a review on YouTube:

Just for youtubers? I know there are famous streamers etc, but will be nice if we can stream this game for our community ( or nation ) in native language. Yes my english isnt best, but i dont think it must be only english streamers/youtubers right?

It's also for streamers, and not only for English channels of course

Hi @ALagerKnightOfTheMoon - we have released very little lore so far. Once there's more out and we add a "the game" section on the website, it will be way more visible :slight_smile:

Hi @EvolGrinZ! What @Specter said is that PvP is possible on Arboreus, albeit rare due to the factors he's described. That doesn't mean it's possible for your farm to be destroyed! Buildings owned by players are protected in general, unless we're talking of city conquests - but that's a whole different story we'll cover in the Feature Spotlight after the next one. So don't worry, the degree of protection you get on Arboreus is really high :slight_smile:

Hi @LordKaust! There are no generic racial-based limitations on crafting, only some very specific ones (such as technological tools being available to humans only).

So yeah, a Beastman can craft a dreadful bone armor like a Demon can, in theory. In practice, that's quite hard, because the recipes to learn how to craft said bone armor could be retrieved only on Tartaros, and the resources to make it too... So it would be rare for a Beastman to actually craft one :slight_smile:

Hi @DrunkRussianBear, sorry for the slow reply. From what I can see, you have a couple friends who reached level 10 and another couple who reached level 20. It's all recorded correctly in the database. Are the points showing up now? If so, it was just a matter of refreshing the Foundation page :slight_smile:

Ciao @Finland, la key che puoi ottenere livellandoti in The Foundation dà accesso solo alla pre-alpha, una fase di testing che si terrà una paio di mesi prima della Alpha 1, come spiegato in questo post.

Per ottenere accesso permanente al gioco potrai acquistare un pledge pack su Kickstarter - ci saranno vari livelli ovviamente, alcuni che garantiscono accesso in full release, altri dalla beta, altri ancora dalla alpha, com'è standard per questo tipo di progetto. La campagna è programmata per la prima metà di quest'anno, ma non ancora annunciata. Successivamente al Kickstarter, sarà possibile acquistare pack simili direttamente su fracturedmmo.com :slight_smile:

Hi @King - what do you mean typing your password? The forums don't allow you to login directly, you are redirected to fracturedmmo.com to do so with your Fractured account. So, is it a problem with fracturedmmo.com? We've never heard any report about this...

Hi everyone,

the Fractured forums have gotten quite busy, and I guess some of you might be annoyed by the excessive amount of notifications, or perhaps are unable to tell apart interesting discussions from "welcome" threads and the like. Here's a couple tips for you!

Ignoring Threads By Category

This one is useful if you want active threads from specific categories not to show up in your Unread page. Just open any category, and change it from Watching to Ignoring - the button is at the top right corner of the category page!

Changing Notification Settings

The platform these forums are built on has a wide array of notifications settings to keep track of different events. Notifications for each type of event can be muted, received on the forums only, or via email (too). To fiddle with settings, press the account button at the top right corner of the screen, then press Settings.

In your Settings page you'll find a whole section dedicated to Notifications:

There are other interesting options as well in the Settings page :slight_smile:

We're going to add other tips to this thread in the future if you let us know of any!

Enjoy Fractured!
