I just want freedom. Freedom in the direction I take, freedom in how I build my class, freedom in how I tackle a quest. The less it is on rails, the better. That doesn't mean I don't play games that are on rails like WoW, but in the end I like sandboxes the most. The only reason why I don't play many sandboxes is because of the grindyness and forced PvP with hardcore elements like full loot. If Fractured manages to break that trend with for example the knowledge system and the beastmen planet, there's a decent chance I will enjoy this game. I need a lot more information to be sure, though.

I love lore. It is so very important for immersion. Sometimes I read the stories of games I don't play at all. Judging by the stories in the spotlight about the races, the devs certainly haven't forgotten about this. I can't wait to see what else they have in store.

All we know so far is that you lose your stuff when you die:

Btw, I made a big compilation thread a few days ago containing many questions and answers. I suggest you take a look because I believe it has many of the answers you seek. https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/266/a-compilation-of-everything-we-know-about-fractured

I found Fractured through MassivelyOP. At first I didn't think too much about it but after a while I decided to check it anyway. The fact that it's a sandbox where we can avoid most PvP if we want is what drew me in and kept me here.

Some people just want to rush to endgame. Not everyone cares about lore as much as we do.

Well, Prometheus said earlier in this thread monsters mostly drop crafting resources and currency. I don't think they will be dropping potions unless we use potions as a currency or crafting material.

Where's the food?

@warhard said in Are you a PVP or PVE player?:

@knulp said in Are you a PVP or PVE player?:

Both, i think you can have fun at both. Humans are like, more free to choose, right? Are Beastman more PVE and demons PVP?
Googl translate say:

I think you're wrong, because this kind of separation is not welcome in practice and is not practiced. As for all here are answered with the skills rolled on the character.

There's most certainly a difference, the devs wrote a whole spotlight about it. https://fracturedmmo.com/feature-spotlight-1-three-races-three-gameplays/ Beastmen are the most peaceful and can't even attack each other while demons are total anarchy.

There will be open world dungeons.

Well, Tartaros is a lawless PvP planet and the human planet has full PvP aswell, but with laws in place that you can break. We also know we lose our stuff when we die so I assume that yes, you will risk your stuff. The Beastmen world is most PvE-like. PvP can happen there too but it's apparently very hard for a PvPer because the whole environment supposedly turns against the PvPer.

A while ago, I made a compilation of all answers given by the devs. It might answer some of your questions: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/145/dungeons-guild-info/3

UPDATE

I've added the questions and answers from the last few days.

• DEVELOPMENT

Future expansions.
No, this isn't an announcement about future expansions, but still worth the read.
https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/319/expansions-and-future-content/5

Community manager.
The devs are planning to hire a community manager in the future.
https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/310/youtube/3

Forum nightmode.
Darker forum skin coming in the future.
https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/303/dark-theme-night-mode-for-the-forum/9

• COMBAT

Abilities.
More info about abilities:
https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/308/loot-vs-skill/11

Each of your answers just raises more questions. The survival aspect of Fractured seems to be bigger than I thought. first hunger/thirst, now climate.

for @Vengu

Thanks!

I suggest you just wait for the Kickstarter and support them that way.

@holyavengerone said in Expansions and future content:

@Prometheus On that topic, in the FAQ you guys mention that

1. WHAT BUSINESS MODEL WILL FRACTURED FOLLOW?

Fractured will follow a “buy to play” business model. This means that a single initial purchase will give you permanent access to the game, without any content restriction!

Given the above answer, my understanding is that there won't ever be a fee for additional game content beyond the initial purchase. No expansions, no DLCs, no item shop. Am I reading that right?

Judging by Prometheus's various comments on the forum, I don't think they've made a decision yet on monetization beyond the initial box price. :thinking:

Daily already appears to be completed for today.

@rolanstorm said in Lore is IMPORTANT:

@vengu I think they further it. Not only you are in control of the events like in EVE, lore itself is to be gathered. And gathering lore pieces gives you knowledge of different spells and abilities. Also it grants mere knowledge of game world in general. So first part is for the character to advance (similar to XP), second for player to know things around the game.

At least how I understood it, but they neither confirmed nor denied this. They just said 'no XP, lore will be very improtant and to be discovered, game is a lot about exploration'.

The devs should make the knowledge system like the Tome of Knowledge from Warhammer Online then. That was a very cool feature that we haven't really seen in other games. It would fit the knowledge system perfectly.

@casgadom said in Expansions and future content:

@prometheus Is it planned to do some user based cosmetics? Like an art contest and the winner gets some freebies + the art gets implemented?

I personally have no artistic skill, but I'd love to see what the community will create once the mood on the game's atmosphere is set.

Maybe as a Kickstarter reward? A lot of Kickstarters have "design your own X" at higher tiers.

Whatever it is, it's probably going to be bigger than what many people are expecting. They've been hiring people for an unnanounced Diablo project for many years now. As early as 2015 in fact. http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/141934-Blizzard-is-Hiring-for-a-New-Diablo-Project

Yes: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/145/dungeons-guild-info/3

And that didn't change after the release of guild profiles: https://forum.fracturedmmo.com/topic/414/hero-and-guild-creation-now-live-in-the-foundation/5?page=1
