Ashes Of Creation Just Solved A HUGE Problem 

For a select group of players, probably not everyone

@@AshesOfOddity You can only be a citizen of one node. So you will initially do most of your questing in that zone. The citizens of a node will be automatically be a faction, and players will not be able to decide who is and isn't allowed to be a citizen of that node not even the leader of a node. So Guilds don't own nodes, nor can they actually control them. Also there are, I think I read somewhere, going to be node alliances, so a node can start working on a neighboring node and make a multi-node country and expand. Of course civil wars can then erupt. Or, level 5 is still a very good city. Citizens may be very happy with that, if they can visit the level 6 city next door and use all the crafting facilities and do all the content. Particularly if the level 5 node has a port, or a valuable resource. Then I suppose the country can open up a "Colony" across the sea. and trade with it (beware of pirates), or fight over it. It will be interesting to see the difference between servers that are largely peaceful, and those that do more fighting over nodes. I'm sure some will never get out of being warring neighboring 1 node tribes, while others may coalesce into a few great empires, I doubt if even Steven knows how it will work itself out.

I am getting quite excited myself

I completely forgot about this game until I saw the video in my sidebar. It's got a release time frame now?! Gonna have to start following it!

Yeah it just looked a bit jank. But it's alpha so nothing serious

yeah the end game content is going to be quite sandboxy which for many won't be enough

I think it won't but the events that trigger probably do

I mean town boards / commissions sounds boring but it wasn't

I think their visuals are already good, so an improvement there will be quite exciting

The fidelity is great but the skill FX has always looked like hot garbage. They have really stepped it up though. However the lighting really needs work. And like Oddity said the tree leaves during a storm are janky.

@@PherPhur the vfx are still a work in progress. Considering how good snipe looks after a few iterations I think they'll figure it out.

Yeah I'm not sure how that will work, in theory there might be some way to cheese it but they probably thought about it

Indeed the game ain't real till you play it.

and?!game really dont need to be released if we already test alot of systems in alpha,we know basicly everything how working and they show almost everything in the game!For reason people need to be hyped bcs this mmorpg will be success 100% bcs game was made around of community,also they already have milions of users Steven said!I play over 25 years only this genre for the first time i am happy to see real devs with good vision and finally game without p2win and f2p,b2p systems just only sub!

That's tab target I guess for you

Heh I forgot about the second one!

That was so satisfying actually. Keeping it real. Real funny. And relatable

Yeah, I might just have PTSD from only farming them on new world

@@AshesOfOddity The problem with new world was that you get always the same rewards , in aoc case looks like higher you reputation with the node higher the tear of the recipes, materials you get

Will enough people want to do it? we will see

It's alpha but yeah

Omg that's the least important thing atm.

That’s what you’re worried about? Wow. Combat needs to be good, content needs to be fun and interactive but no you’re worries about cape physics lol

@@AshesOfOdditydon’t listen to people like this focus on the more important stuff please

Indeed

It's new innit :) thanks

Yeah these are fundamental to the game and if they suck then we will be in trouble but they look good so far

Also. Thank you

Same that's the most important part of an MMO, yet the comments here be like "tHe cApE pHySiCs" lmao that can all be cleaned up AFTER the gameplay loops, combat, world and many other priority areas. 😅😅

In theory it's a boring subject, in reality it's fundamental.

For a lot of people that will be deal breaker

yeah cause they are forcing me to do something I am not always wanting to I think like Black Desert when I just gathering all the sudden a much better equipped person just attacked me and I was killed easily cause I was not prepared and over matched. This is why I will not play any always on pvp.

Were gonna miss you

The thing with a system like that, is people will just blast up he brightness if needed!

But will it be enough, probably

Q3

And they give materials and recipes to higher your reputation with that node , higher recipes materials you get from that contracts

It's a long grind but will commissions always be relevant, I guess it's all balancing

well, I'm going to be pushing for Reputation Degradation. So if you have to keep doing commissions to keep your Reputation up, it will be FOREVER relevant. What do you think?

That was quick :)

@@AshesOfOddity You are unbelievably entertaining man, I really like your whole vibe and the way you portray information. I truly hope you blow up on youtube, I will be looking forward to all your videos. Also I can't wait for this game to be released!

Ooo that is sad :(

I'm curious, why?

It is both ancient and modern at the same time. You can turn on action camera mode. It's basically a soft lock targeting system instead of pure tab target. Abilities are either tab or action (template based mostly) and not both.

I think I can live with it
