alpha-key tab appeared in overview!

Not long ago when @Finland said it will start 1st June I wanted to write that it probably will be delayed cause it usually is with kickstarter but I stopped myself and thought "maybe this time..."

It's pretty normal from what I've seen - it's much better to make sure you're 100% ready then to falstart.

VR would be a waste of devs time.

@phaethonas said in VIP system : What do you think ?:

Why the sub model isn't viable now? What changed? Sure you have the argument "in the past 5 years only one game..." but you are not explaining as to why there was a change.

People seen that they can get good games without sub. That's what changed.

I will give you a similar challenge. Name two (2) f2p games that are good (played by lots of players, cult status, good reviews etc etc) and are not pay2win. You can't. There is only one at best! Path of Exiles.

Warframe

@grofire don't worry - they're busy preparing materials including videos for kickstarter. So before you put your money there you will be able to see much clearer what the game is.

@Jetah stretch goals are always good way to boost sales. Also stretch goals from media exposure (or w/e it's called) like for each 1k likes or stuff

@grofire then you have to risk it There should be enough info about the game when the kickstarter starts. I'm sure they thought carefully about the prices. Remember that putting the price too low will also hurt the game even if the KS is successful.

rice is better
but well made noodles aren't bad

@grofire you can always wait for full game and pay 30 for it. Kickstarter is always a risk but usually it works better then preorders you have a lot of info how the game will shape up and when KS is up there will be even more info and videos.

I'd like to know what "Learning Slot" means exactly before talking about it but Knowledge Gain sounds even worse then just time saver.
Considering that every race will have part of the game that will be hard or even almost impossible to access and gain knowledge from it that could mean that VIP players can skip the hard content and still max knowledge - ie. Arboreus for evil demons.

@specter said in Kickstarter Update - Pledge Packs:

Kickstarter only accepts credit cards I believe. The devs will also sell the packs through the website eventually and I am pretty sure there will be more payment options then.

Can we offer our payment options?

Not with Kickstarter. The people that would pay with paypal don't count for KS so you may end up with a lot of people paying money and the campaign failing to be founded. I'd prefer paypal as well but KS and paypal didn't reach an agreement unfortunately - it's all about charging only if the campaign is founded not right away.

I agree with that @Finland posted in first reply.
Good to see that no pledge gives foundation points and let's leave it that way

Being jobless and cheap I'll try to go for early Recruit

Seems we have our answer in here

Actually I wouldn't mind if they sold foundation points AFTER pre-alpha. So people could get all foundation rewards and pre-alpha would still stay reward for being active

@fibs it's under 1000 people so I would say there is a limit.
@Jetah not buying pre-alpha and not buying foundation points aren't necessary the same. But I do hope you're right and that's what it means
@Kralith no worries - my post could be understood like you did. So it's good in a way that you gave me a possibility to explain

@kralith I'm not really worried about myself If I wouldn't get in being on 10th place getting in with foundation would be a lie. I just remember that at the beginning there were speculations about buying foundation points in kickstarter that's all I'll just believe what @Jetah said - too lazy to listen to whole live.

@xionmuteki it requires you to complete Divine Quest - and probably is instantaneous after that. You need your karma to qualify for the quest.
Edit: Didn't notice @Specter answer

as fun as it sounds it would take people away from guild settlements so +1 for @Finland on this.

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

@tulukaruk

Live Q&A said Foundation will be separate from KS so you can't buy foundation points.

Cool. I've only read the summary and it wasn't there (or I've missed it )

@nelchael said in Crafting?:

There will be recipes, and they'll most likely last forever. There won't be different kinds of item quality, since all equipment is equal in Fractured.

There will be different quality of items it just won't affect combat.
