^This i'm still laughing as player who seriously think that open world server events that get loads of players on one spot can work properly computing wise.

I don't get why developers continue to try, I'm unsure if its just pure ignorance or hubris but it blows my mind that they continue to try and do these things in game after game full well knowing open world doesn't allow for that and a purely open world game simply can't do certain things.

Yeah same i can totallly agree after tera nexus everyone should have gotten the memo by then yet "nooooo we need open world content" as much as i love OW stuff i'm also realist enough to get that technologically we're not there yet for this stuff maybe with quantum computers~

In other news:

Some more details on a yet another silly interview on a website instead of giving us this stuff directly on their forums /sigh

That 16-20 enchanting grind will break even the most hardcore grinders. /yay

I feel so sorry for the localization team of this game. They are amazing, but the amount of bs they seem to get through is inconcievable.

I'm a little bit sad there isn't so much variety in landscape. While sometimes you come across something really cool like a village build in the rocks etc., the landscape seems to be only small variations of 'green'. I haven't found any icy plains nor volcanic wastelands yet. That said, I haven't explored everything yet. Anyone know if there are some very different landscapes than green & desert?

Thanks!

The PvP XP loss is only if you have a karma of 0 or higher, no?

Yep, going negative Karma requires you to kill about 5 players (if not including the mobs you kill in between to gain more)

Isn't this going to encourage more field boss griefing? Shouldn't they have removed exp loss from field bosses instead? Like what the hell is the point...

Field boss griefing?¿

Field boss griefing?¿

Well the whole point was to punish players right? Getting in others way while fighting a boss or while farming. Now there is literally no kind of consequence. Someone jumps someones spot or boss, they die, they come right back with nothing to lose.

They literally removed exp loss from the wrong mechanic lol

Desert tomorrow hype!

I'm pretty excited!

My guild, PRX, is doing well. We were one of four groups to take a region in the first round of sieges and are totally pumped for the Valencia content.

the combat is amazing in this game but i cant stand that there are no dungeons/raids or pre max level pvp, do people still play this game?

I haven't played it myself but friends of mine told me that it's more micromanagement based. If you want a something you have to gather x for y and you need y for z and so on.

last i played it was just entirely about grinding

And it still is. This new update adds like 3 open world dungeons but they aren't real dungeons like you're use to. More like an area of clustered mobs.

The update doesn't change the formula of the game
