@Razvan said in Foundation:

In my experience you end up doing stuff wildly beyond your qualifications in small companies. I can't say Dynamight is doing the same, but looking at their team there's only one software engineer. Unless they hired new people, or the others help (learning a scripting language is usually trivial), I don't think it's possible for one person to do all the work.

These being said, adding a few more rewards on the website shouldn't take many resources (a third party may be involved tho, so it's hard to tell). On the other hand they already give quite a lot of skins and 15€ worth of gold to at least 100 - 600 people (someone who is exactly level 200 should have a better estimate). Only a tiny fraction of those people contribute with anything, the others just spam that "offtopic thread" or "welcome to Fractured" category (/forum). They even confirmed the foundation will expand to level 250 or 300. I feel like the rewards are amazing as they are right now. If I had a saying in this, I'd say the future rewards should be given more selectively to people who participate in tests and leave feedback, promote the game, or contribute to the forums in meaningful ways.

I would like Titles and Character borders over more shop chests, or dynamic gold, id rather pay for that.

@asspirin said in Suggestion: Different spells have different armor requirements:

@Xzoviac I understand you, I hate meta and also favour weird builds, but as i understand it armour is the only way to show you what you can expect from enemy.

In DOTA2 you know every character, all their skills, all their CDs and know their role in fight. In Ability draft you can customize your hero with skills from other heroes and suddenly you don´t know what exactly you can expect from enemy - and it´s a huge game changer. Same in Albion online - you see what your enemy has, you know exactly what he can do.

In Fractured everyone can have everything and as the game will feature skins, armour helps to recognise at least "archetype" if nothing better, but you can tell "this guys´s a tank and this one is dps mage, let´s focus him". I wouldnt like to repeat my experience from GUILD WARS 2 where I faced team of 4 Asuras looking basically the same wearing very similar outfit and with names like wwwwwkkkkiiiii Or even better - imagine if in DOTA2 match everyone had the same character model, lets say Mortred. What would that mean? Initiators would be useless, because they wouldn´t know who to initiate on. Tanks wouldnt probably mind as they would just run forward, but who would DPS focus? WWhich one shoudlnt get too close?

I like it the way it was presented - Heavy is tanky who will probably not harm me from distance, medium armour is faster dps, he will probably sneak or attack from range and this dude in pajamas should be taken down first before he will fry us or heal other dudes. I take it as little bit of light in this chaos.

Your point is also valid, I suppose you could put that down to recognising player play style and positioning tanks charging in guy being sheepish at back in full plate throwing out nukes then chilling is a potential lock down target but he is still not as much of a threat as pyjama boy.

Tank wizard will likely be
aoe dive in or dots because burst that does not have all skills in burst just wont be that effective but out lasting your enemys could be tank wizards speciality.

Most people will cutty cutter and tanks should be easy to smash down if they are not full tanking it with tank skills

I can see your point but I dont know if it would be as bad as you think if skills are balanced correctly

Seen this happen on a server using single threads to transfer packet data, was not spartial os though.
The solution they found was to multi thread the packet data so it dosent get a backlog (and essentially ddos its self)

Kickstarter lot have been abandoned, our packages where resold, the Permanent VIP was resold (and probably will be again)
they moved company and forced everyone to migrate and use the Glyph launcher then changed to steam and did not give us a way to migrate.
the Developers Discord has not been posted in by any staff for over a year, and the Kickstarter higher backers paid for this "Privilege" I couldn't find the last time an actual developer posted.

I can cope with the game having bugs and not being finished and even crawling to the point it will be enjoyable.
but the lack of communication and the out right shitting on the original backers over and over again is just a disgrace.

I Dont know wich forum mods are active anymore so ill just ping one. If another sees please can you deal with this

@Arcahem , will you contact the developers and get them to to use the Developers forum, we have paid for.

Iv tried contacting them for the last 15 days, vire the developer forums to get them speaking again

As a kickstarter backer we paid for special access to this section, it has not been posted in in over a year,

This is really not good enough.

And gamico if you are managing the fractured team you should give them a swift kick up the backside, because them not fulfillng deals they made with the original backers, also shines a bad light on you as a company.

Somone needs to sort this and get things back on the right track please

@spoletta maybe you can convince @Prometheus to give you access to dev info so the original pleges can be honored (developer access is also still being sold on the website) so any new backers sre really going to be disappointed if they purchase the most expensive package, just to get one of the perks they and we paid for to be something thats getting ignored

The developers forum has finally been posted in again, fingers crossed this is a sign of things to come im so relieved dynamic is turning over a new leaf.
