Well I tried the demo and I´m just thinking that would be much better if the creatures would move in the forrest. Like wolves they just stand and wait at the same tree every time, could they have wander or triggered moving? That would be big bonus. And also the healing is abit bad like in Gaias orpg was rest, there could be tavern or something where you can rent room and rest a night and regen health and mana, like after you´ve done quest or something to the owner of tavern. And I would like to see ship travelling and other things in finished version =3 And btw (why wolves down drop raw meat? You could cook it and it would be cooked meat which you could eat.)

 

[-Kobas-]

Thanks for playing. I will try not to disappoint you. Thanks for ideas as well.

 

[Tleno]

Well I guess they will start spawning raw meat after the cooking profession will be done...

Yea, I have to completely agree with Remixer - Wolves should wander in some way or whatever - currently they look just... not lively. Like they are here just to get killed by you. You could like make them run around chasing some critters or whatever...

 

[Skycraft]

Or you could add the ability "Wander", just an idea.

 

[Tleno]

Nah, then those damn wolves could wander in where they are not supposed to.

 

[Remixer]

I suggest to add region to forest and they just randomly move to random place in the region while they are not in battle. So they wont come to cities or go to places where we don´t want them ( Limit luring ( stupid that bear runs forever after you ^.^ )
- Iron Sword of Fire makes the squire jumb every time he hits! Normal ?

Suggestion - Cheese + Bread + Smoked Stake = Sandwich ? ( Could work with many things when you make more food and other items, stats - cooking )
Suggestion - Current foods heals abit low amount of health points, could they maybe regen hitpoints ( Healing Salve) and heal more but not instantly. ( Would make impossible to spam food and kill hard monsters ? )

 

[Death_Nevermore]

Downloading now, and I'll check it out after work. Thumbs crossed!

 

[-Kobas-]

We made huge progress already, give us some time to add new stuff into systems... As soon as we finish with object editor work and such things we will list changes here.

 

[Razosh]

Nice to ear, and since you've kept us waiting for along time I hope the changelist is big

 

[Remixer]

Are you going to do Closed-Beta?

If you are going to do can I be test player

We are pretty much having an open alpha testing now, so I guess beta-test will be free for everyone, too.

 

[-Kobas-]

Everything will be free

Holly chisum that's great work hope we'll see the beta soon.

 

[Tleno]

That's a one massive changelog!

Can't wait until we'll get to try this version!

 

[-Kobas-]

Thanks for support guys, I will soon upload info about 1st few quests

 

[Razosh]

Nice And if the map is half as good as it looks like it will blow peoples mind

 

[Luffy]

tracking this, seems awesome, waiting for beta

 

[Remixer]

Really waiting for new version of the map. Have any ideas when it comes?

Damage system is very intresting, but could there be a chance to cribble the enemy so it haves reduced movement speed or slower attack speed.
If there would be other weapons than swords, likea axes, maces and swords you could add special ability to each of these "classes".

And is this going to be "Gothic III/ Oblivion" type of RPG, where you can do also more things that just do the quests and "live" in the world...

Well there will be some crafting systems... currently the world outside the towns (And inside them, too) doesn't look very lively, but I hope it will get fixed by making the animals and stuff wonder or something...
Also, what about owning your own house? I just love when you get to own something yourself in an RPG game, probably even get some profit from it or whatever...

 

[Razosh]

Good idea I have tried to suggest that to Blizzard for a long time but they never listens.

 

[Remixer]

How is it going with the map?

 

[Bugz]

-Kobas- is working on something else, after that he focus on it :d.

Btw progresss?

 

[CHA_Owner]

Now im interested in this project also it is very cool looking and the systems seem to be turning out great

 

[Aeroblyctos]

So this is a single-player RPG and has a system like this?

New Experience System
- Hero will only gain experience if he kill unit that is 5 levels above or below his level.

That's like one of the most hated systems ever in RPGs. Yea perhaps it works in multi-player games but with single-player games, nope.

 

[-Kobas-]

Maybe but this way you won't be able to level up on weak enemies once when your hero reach higher level.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Does the enemies respawn?

 

[-Kobas-]

Yes, every 60 seconds I think...

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Well then it's understanding, yet still I think it's just wrong.

 

[Razosh]

I personlly think it's great that you can't get experience from a low leveled creep and if this was a multiplayer game I would understand why you don't get experience from higher leveled creeps, but why can't you get it in a single player RPG? If I where able to kill a creep that is 7 levels higher then me it would be because I have good gear and am a good player that knows my class, and yet you don't want people to be revarded for that, why?

 

[-Kobas-]

Because whole gameplay won't allow you to kill enemy unit even 3 or 4 levels above your hero level.

And another thing is that this way I can lock WHOSYOURDADDY cheat, you won't be able to kill and kill and kill and actually finish game within few hours

 

[Razosh]

Makes sense.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Or you can use Kita's simple anti-cheat system to lock "whosyourdaddy" system including some other cheats.

 

[Adiktuz]

or you can just scale the experience so that it increases with each enemy level higher than you, and decreases per enemy level lower than you... and ofc you can put a cap...

[Foronisus]

i liked the video

 

[Tleno]

The trailer looks pretty much epic...

 

[-Kobas-]

Well I wish I had at least 3 or 4 guys here with me to work on voices and better effects, but cuz I'm not blizzard we go with text on the screen ^_^

Whole video was created in WE, captured, edited and uploaded in 3 hours.
I will create another one about heroes, well their history or whatever. But this one will be longer and with better effect I promise.

 

[CHA_Owner]

Nice man keep up the good work the video looked really good and since it only took you 3 hours that makes it that much more epic lol.

 

[Foronisus]

OOh cant wait for the other video

[-Kobas-]

Because I add add add and add more and more each day, new demo version will be really close to finished product, systems and everything will be created, final version will just have more object (from items and new spells to quests and story elements) and terrain.

 

[Foronisus]

Nice waiting for it
