I'm really enjoying this thread by the way. Next question: Is the cleric dodge and the rogue teleport thingy completely identical other than animation? i.e. is one better at dodging (distance traveled, cooldown, speed, etc)?
What do the stats on items look like? Do they improve normal stats (str, con, dex, etc) and if so, by how much? Basically I'm asking whether the starting stats that you 'roll', where you can add +2 here and there, are at all relevant or if they're quickly going to be overshadowed by gear with +20 strength or something. Or…
An aristocrat tells you his summer home away from the centre of the city has been overrun by brigands. He promises you a grand reward. But upon getting there, you find out the 'brigands' are noble thieves stealing from the aristocrat (who's a bit of a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> but not really evil) to give to the…
Triple threat! 1. Here's one I haven't seen: What kind of emotes are there? Waving, pointing, sitting, looking at maps, etc? One thing I miss about CoH (of many) was the truly outrageous number of emotes you could have, complete with added props as needed. 2. In a similar vein, can we click to sit on chairs? 3. In yet…
It's planned to have only one server total (well, a couple at launch but then soon merged into 1), so there won't be an RP specific server. On the plus side it means all the RPers will, technically, be on the same server.
This would be excellent. Doesn't even have to be in big 'raid warning' type letters, even. A paragraph in the chat window works so you can describe what's going on.
I've seen posts mentioning that folks aw axes for rogues and other weapons for fighters, so this may just be a case of Beta being Beta. Anyhow, I agree with you that weapon variety is a must.
Great to hear! That was the one downside of the interview. Beyond that I was very impressed that you got answers to a lot of tough questions, so kudos to both you and the interviewees on that. Not to say I was necessarily happy with all the answers (boo poor non-combat skills!) but that ain't your fault :-)
Interesting! Are these cosmetic outfits a single slot? i.e. does putting on the 'pirate outfit' (or whatever) change your entire appearance to a pirate, or is it along the lines of pirate chest, pirate hat, pirate gloves, etc? If it's the latter then it seems like that would be the superior option each time (since you…
O mighty beta testers, I wanna know about customization! Specifically, armour customization. Lets say I find a piece of swag that looks super cool and fits the intended theme of my character. How hard is it to keep that swag's look, given that it may not have the stats I desire? Ditto for weapon customization.
