Best wipe I've survived, but walked away deaf XD
Us
If your choice is purely on amount of players then the US,
Only join EU if you want a casual experience, it's very slow because there isn't many people. If want any normal gameplay you'll have to join, get to winstead and play around there, think 80% of the EU playerbase is down there
Round estimate I'd say US population is over 170% bigger then the EU population
nice
Will world bosses be on respawn on server restart as it was prior phases, because fighting for world bosses at 5am is something 
@worn zinc are you allowed to tell us the player count on EU? We tried counting in global and got to 8
@worn zinc Lifts to Hammer Rest are stuck again
=/ Thanks. Shall let them know.
this game have to release, i cant stop playing it
Huge !
They are working to reset it.
Hopefully it should work momentarily.
I love that the lifts are too realistic, break down every five minutes π
Nodes progression using construction crates is bugged right ? Shorefoot and Valghadim got 0 XP from completing them. Joeva completed all its construction too i think but still far from getting to lvl3. Feels lile it shouldnt be so slow right ?
Did Intrepid said anything about node not progressing after constructions completions ? The state of nodes on Lotharia is a litle depressing.
Reason why world boss is at like 5 am btw?
cause fakka you
bc this a niche game... a niche game for the jobless βπΏ
but probably not changed to EU time i guess
who even is the "world boss"?
Question for the gm/dev, what is the interest of complete the public works for the node? xp? possibility to xp? something else?
you should read the announcement
which one? didn't see anything related to world bosses
Bosses should not be tied to restarts in the first place
Restarts make sense in off hours, but bosses should spawn during peak hours
Valghadim got its construction xp later this morning (~40%) but Shorefoot is still lacking any from its buildings. Maybe the server restart helped a little but not everywhere.
they are but it's bugged and doesn't give xp, i guess my message has too many words for you to understand it properly
Question for the gm/dev, what is the interest of complete the public works for the node? xp? possibility to xp? something else?
They provide node xp and reputation (if you are a citizen)
and rep gives you benefits
the tax reduction isnt as good as you would think though
Where do u craft these construction crates? Can you deliver them to a node in lvl 2? Where?
You craft them at the carpentry station and you deliver them to any node lvl1+
If they still have construction sites available
you have to check there first what kind of crates they need
Okey, thanks!
Where do I check? On the building site?
my question if for the node
not for the player
but thx
Did commoner give you a third free storage slot for mats?
Not for free
Is it still 5g or cheaper?
1g
ah nice, ty for letting me know
but its 16 crate turn ins minimum, which you cant now as the projects are more or less done
you can get rep from mayoral commissions when we get a mayor
Yeah I saw realised that after running a package last night lol
But didnt realise you could store the crate, so just sold it
Anyone else repeatedly CTDing in/immediately outside Winstead village? I have a high end PC, NvidiaRTX 5090 (fully updated drivers), 32GB ram
No RAM spiking when it happens
Just CTD out of the blue - even very shortly after loading into the game
Sorry: CPU - Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-14900KS
Settings are maxed ingame
Sorry - settings are "apply recommended" settings, but pretty maxed
I've capped frames in the game/my own settings at 100 FPS, too
@brittle depot i'm getting same problems inside windstead if my gfx settings are too high (also 5090, latest drivers, 64gb ram etc.) - just display driver crash
So it's Nvidia being shitty
i don't think frame cap works
did you check with Alt + shift + f if it's really capped?
yeah, i think it's nvidia or aoc doing something funky
with high settings i can sometimes see really funky graphical glitches as well
so now i'm just playing all low + cinematic view distance
which feels kinda bad for a 5090 π
:()
i think you should be fine for the most part by just turning down GI to medium
and maybe shadows too
I will try that thank you
a working frame cap would be good too.. at least it wouldn't overload your PC
but i don't think the current one works, at least it doesn't work for me
shit like this

Yeah I had loads of that stuff in busy places
then it really might be something that's specific to 5000 cards
i have a 4090 and i've never seen that
Well GI and shadows now at medium sadly
world looks less good but mebbe no crashes
GI is the reason for like 90% of the graphical issues IMO
also i haven't checked ray tracing, i'm too scared to even try, so that might be it too
i'll try to get a video about that gfx glitchiness at some point and try to post it to #1365478519441719377 ... but i think screen recording is gonna be difficult if my gfx drivers crash
i tried, nothing happened on ray - box didnt even get checked
i'm not using raytracing, tried it but didn't notice anything really π
i also feel like some settings are only applied after restart - i changed my settings last night but game only started glitching and crashing after restart today
That is your driver, if you rolls back to 577.00 it will be good!
I have the 5090, and on newer drivers I get those glitches also!
DDU and try, i run high/ultra with dlss, no framegen, and rarely crashes anyone. With framegen on i get some crashes
Can confirm I rolled back to 577.00 (on the advice of @vivid torrent in another thread) and it fixed this issue on my 5090
Thanks! I'll try this at downtime
Nice to hear it solved it for you also! ππ
So you guys are now able to enter Winstead after rolling back nvidia update ? I fear getting close to that place again
WTS:
Copper
- Lego, Epic, Heroic, Rare, Uncommon, Common
Basalt
- Lego
Anyone want to go colonise one of the Island nodes with me? I'm bored of current game loop.
Running Fast, Safe, Sure and travelled to Winstead as I read I need to hand the crates to a clerk near the Emberspring but cannot find one in the settlement. Anyone know where the Strider Clerk is?
Never had issues entering winstead, but did you get artifacts stretching all over the screen and on an 5090?
You selling legos?
It's at a tent at the crossroad. Not inside the node
How much for Epic copper?
25s
meet in wintsead? i need 10
Sure, but got only 7x epic
whats ur ign?
joo im new trying bard someone have good build and can help me out π
Where can I get construction crates to help build
What was the vote situation for Winstead how many for winning?
280 for Prometeu
How can I become a commoner for Winstead? Seem someone did it, as shown in a screenshot by Fool at around 1300 hours today in this thread.
Isnt commoner granted to every member?
is anyone else crashing when loggin into Winstead?
I been grinding them almost non-stop for the town
No idea, cant help
Thank you all for the support. I will do my best to not disappoint. /salute
Howcome that a mayor was selected even though there was 5 days left on voting
it showed the wrong cycle of election. The first Election of a Node is an emergency election, so the vote only lasts 24h. the next cycle in a month will last the full week like shown in the tooltip
Public works jobs
If you'd shared your UI before the election you'd have lost on that disaster alone
guys. anyone know if guild cd is 24h to join another guild?
What construction crates does Winstead need?
did you win already? how so?
Best Scribe EU Batch craft of 61 Scrolls 
weird bug, got 4 mounts now xD
Hi, Server EU not restart @worn zinc
Auto restart is not for a few more hours.
ha server is restarting rn or not
Oh we are disconnect now
Yes, it's good, the restart worked fine mb for ping
On it brother π«‘
@keen scarab yall not looking too hot over here
@woeful bolt π€
There may be a mass exodus to Lotharia.. keep the hearth warm.. yeah, that black ashen thing in the corner there. Needs wood.
lvl 6 rogue looking to grind out some levels, whisper: zubterfuge
guys are there any other caravan npc aside from winstead? or we're not in the caravan running phase yet
Lvl up joeva and you'll have another one
yes boss

Can someone ban all the cartels exploiting firebrand kill right now?
and the others as well
So just to confirm. if firebrand bugs whilst you're killing it. Noone is allowed to kill it to reset the boss at the next respawn?
why the fuck is this buggy loot pinata still in the game is the real question
he seems to be fine (most of the time) at most spawns. the biggest culprit for it bugging out seems to be the NA spawn that bugs out whilst you're killing it (mostly when it flys into the air and lands)
but all in all the boss defo needs a re-work
It is a well known bug that firebrand gets stuck on trees and rocks when he's doing the flyby's and we report it with /bug every time. When it's stuck on a tree we can cut it, but when it flies into the rock there is nothing you can do.
I never saw him bugged like this near steelbloom
You clearly haven't killed him many times then
beside if the raid knows because it's sooooo well known there must be a way to avoid it right, right?
he bugs everywhere but NA seems to be the biggest culprit
You expect ppl to get banned because of a buggy boss?
Ok next time a mob breaks on you. Doesn't leash properly you must instantly stop attacking it bug report it and not interact with it
you literally just asked for those ppl to be banned? and now you're saying it's not up2 you?
Firebrand routinely bugs himself out for no reason and bricks his AI
Literally no way around it
asked as it seems like an exploit
Fucking clown. Actually play the game before calling people out.
Its not an exploit you fucking chromosome merchant this game is made in chat gpt
What are you yammering about
if it's fine then why are you mad?
You are the one asking for ppl to get banned for a boss bugging out
You expect us not to call you clown when you try pull that shit
asked = "Steven ban the entire guild right now" 
nah it was only few people
Heheh just asking hehee
Hehehehe
Pls ban em tho ehehhehehehehehe
Are you this woefully moronic on purpose or did you spawn this way?
He was bugged from like a day ago. Everyone knew lol, the lag in winstead makes the mobs over there have an aneurysm
He hadn't spawned last night around 10pm (UK time) as my guild was looking for him, so I imagine he bugged out this morning at 4am when the server restarted. He often bugs out, if you play the game for a little while you will see this often
I'm just curious, but have you ever killed Firebrand and/or Tumok?
Ye p2
So you knew he was bugged a day ago because you last fought him in p2?
Can you get out of your feelings and actually read what was said, idc if you do it bro; congrats if you kill it lol. Multiple people were saying he was bugged in global from last night is what i'm saying

I'm not gonna report you or cry in chat for killing a bugged boss, it's unlucky he's bugged if people still wanna do it, enjoy π
I reported you all directly to steven
I have his pager nr
Ur done for kids

Steven is my dad and you are getting banned

Its funny how history repeats itself
gonna call Margret and tell her I'm being harassed
With different people
indeed
Cant find the clip, sadge
That's negative attitude
Ah one of the screechers
yea dramox, stop the dooming and glooming. This server is the Peak of PvE expertise. We're lucky to be here
First it's an exploit, then it seems like an exploit? Make your mind
Are u Just stupid or do u also eat rocks?
Β―_(γ)_/Β―

Fw people Need to remember their Place

Another day, another PERFECT example of Cartel exploiting one of the most immaculately implemented bosses I have ever seen in a video game /s
I'm level 4; I just end swim around all all the map, and the no danger. It's totally best way to explore world if you dont want fight.
be careful of underwater ravens in the anvils
anyone know the name of the qs that gives 25% xp scroll 
You are playing??
i engaged in the streamer lifestyle
In my experience any commission that give you a chest, you can get those from there
They only last 5min now tho


sol deus exploiting again 

we did it before it was cool 
Can you sell commodity crates to harbors?
caught in 4K buddy its over for Cartel
skinniest 'roid rager evz
is there a reason on why there are no mayoral commissions?
No commissions for exploiters
Whats the exploit?
joining that god forsaken guild
ServerWorker 49 stressed out? We get no respawn here anymore for 5min
the grand admiral is still figuring out how to press the right buttons give him 3-5 business days
Is joeva lvled yet?
Guys where I find the npc to give the certificates in "The anvils", I cant find it anywhere, do I really need to go to riverlands for that?
3%
is it not 73% it clicks over?
Maybe I confused it but thought it was 75%
I believe Winstead ticked over at 75, wether theyre all going to do that or not i guess we will see soon
Ye apparently nodes lvl up during the 70%, not sure when precisely tho
Weird that they even do that, it was never like that before right? Maybe they did a hotfix because the xp was wrong or something
74-75% is what I'm expecting
Im looking forward to someone triggering a siege and it starting at 4AM EU
this server is never gonna see a siege
I believe in you, you can make it happen


GET SHIT ON
mira village now?
Happened on NA
at 50%?
GM did it?
The overflow exp from another node hitting 3 made jt jump to T4
41
well doesnt really change anything until we get another node t3
so 4 vassals now 
Journeyman stations incoming?
WAIT WTF?
I'll show up, 1v1 me rust
Can someone screenshot joeva xp bar?
Windstead suddenly gained Halcyon, Joeva, and Aithanahr as vassals. ^^''
Bro these node xp bars makes no sense, has to be a GM manually doing it no?
got some leg flax?
yes actually
wtb
So we literally have no nodes except winstead? Coz no where else is getting lvled, fkking hell
Ye, how many u need?
10
Its the exp from another node leveling up thats causing the issues with exp jumping on nodes same happened on NA
Price? 
idk u tell me
is there a dev response somewhere explaining it?
Our winstead on na jumped from like 20% to t4 the moment miraleth hit t3
You get less money from crates and stuff tho now no? Coz it's in the same node cluster?
On god ppl could have just lvl joeva and we would have 2 fully fledged towns, now we just have 1 meganode
Defo no siege happening now or other interesting stuff, mega lame
you still can level them to village
Yea but its a vassal so no mayor, correct?
ye but no other nodes have levelled here. We just have a few T2's that are close.
storage clerk is gone
steelbloom go brrrrr
it swapped guild and storage around for some unknown reason lol
No but its the only logical one we have seen so far or its just completely borked and the moment it can vassal enough nodes it just jumps itself to T4 
how about that flax now
fair, i've asked in questions for a chance at an answer, but its either buggy or they're leveling it for testing
50g
That's fkked, bad system
Im at work broski

I mean I guess but they should say something at least so we know
Its definitely buggy af
Ay mayn I get paid well 
The fact it happened twice is just funny
nice bro go get that bag
buggy af, encampment ups were at 64%, nothing really at 100%
Can someone answer tho, can there still be a mayor of another node if it's a vassal? It wasn't tested before and I can't check the wiki rn
pretty sure all villages can get mayors
Alright thanks
Still malding tho coz basically this guarantees winstead as the highest node for the playtest with no competition pretty much
what does the lead node have control over that the vassals dont even? Or is it just wars
@worn zinc Could you make it possible to turn one of the settlements in the Anvils into a village, so that the people testing the Anvils can also benefit from being able to level up professions, etc.? That would be really great. I suggest Kal Torhum for this. bc its a rly nice settlement
with steelbloom in the area, it's given winstead levels first, as long as ZoIs are static, it will always be like this
I mean that's fine but what's weird is nodes just skipping the xp bar and lvl'ing, it was like that even before any vassals came into play
I just dislike that we now have 1 meganode and no one is gonna go desert or anvils to lvl it so winstead is just gonna take over this playtest 
are u surprised tho
There's no martial node buff in the game so anither node like joeva or I think even new aela would have been good for testing (not even sure if they're in the game) but now it's rip
all the other biomes are dogshit
I mean partially coz the xp was bugged
Joeva was on 70%+ and didn't lvl
Or however they do it I dunno
ye but bug or no bug ofc riverlands will be the most lvled biome, is the only biome that has some content in it
winstead has both hh and steelbloom in it
what's joeva at rn?
72
give it 2 or 3% then it'll up
I second this! Kal Torhum please β€οΈ @worn zinc
why are we asking for GM boosts like 1 week into a phase lol...
Im prob malding too much lmao but the xp bars are just weird asf
anvils should be leveled too since it has zone specific recipes
because with only the riverlands leveling up people are leaving the anvils and the new zone doesn't get tested anymore, only by very few people
intrepid and percentage values aren't the best friends
Would that even 'fix' anvils? A lot of the shit there is just broken no?
It's all joeva now

If the anvils isnt being levelled up by the player base the reasons its not should be addressed. this is supposed to be a long term test not the ptr
right now the only thing that mattered was where steelboom and HH was

Sheesh
i wonder why EU is not crashing
Did Winstead become a town on real figures or through a bug?
based on percentages... both town and village dont level up at 100% like they should so are both bugged
F?
f
f
F
someone restarted the wrong server 
yup
yep
F
@pallid elk
WRONG SERVER?
crash eu
@pallid elk did we switch off the wrong server?
bet it was the intern
F
nice jinx
We're going to be restarting things on Shol in a moment. If you're online this will seem like a crash, but we plan to restart things shortly
Wrong terminal guys
aha classic I just finished work and logged in π€£
ahaha did they just "restart all" ?
Yesterday I was shown 5% at Winstead and the other climbs didn't go that fast π
I'm just surprised that it fits in terms of time, just as the problems on Shol started.
wrong way to remove french
π«
Cartel exploiting enough to crash servers smh
Always the cartel people man
Rollback is coming π€£π€£π€£π€£
new bosses after restarts, so just restart every 5 min
yea, sorry guys. we just wanted to bug out the WB early
@pallid elk we getting downtime?
sorry I was buys having guild discussion
im in the system
ayo
node death is supposed to be there
you would need leg tin yeah, but I don't wanna sell you mine
Imagine if they roll back Winstead
LOTHARIA CLOSED 2 GOLD
i will crash out
Shol back up
WRONG BUTTON STEVEN xD
Rip Eu
mega server confirmed 
Rolback! xD
Yo @shrewd sapphire can we add 2h maces, 2h great axes, spears, rapiers to the world boss' loot tables? 
eu wiped 
#letlothariadown
what server am I on now?
I believe in you to hit rocks
Time to make a character
who are these clown emoji's?
its the crazy dev branch that allegedly has all the systems showcased
bobs confirmed
irrelevant players
EU players screwed once again
@pallid elk Why is the PvE server down?
Always down during primetime EU
LF Leveling group on Shol
guys we are allowed to join US realm now... lets all make new characters and show them how its done π
I think EU server got deleted for real π
fishing alt levelling?
deserved tbh
I did see Roshan typing a second a go 
This is what happens when you elect KDS for mayor
Imagine having HH and SB in one location and not be first to lvl
He put a message down in the #alpha-two-shol-us
who would have thought that prometeu becoming mayor would mean the end of eu server
turns out KDS are the villians after all
Itβs a tragedy that Oakenbane doesnβt open from the start. When players actually could use it and give Mira a chance to out level Winstead
enlighten me, what warcrimes has he done in the past?
KDS = Kill Da Server?
its usally down for 1h now anyway.. maybe just forgot to message
and wai im must play in trash NA with trash ping from EU ?
We need a dynamic lawless zone in Winstead
Surprise 2hr downtime 
Lotharia (EU) is down, and Shol (US) will be coming again in a few moments
so this was a lie
i blame prometeu
INB4 empty patch notes and no bug fixes when it comes back online
Brother wtf? So na lags and they take down eu? 
guess time to make acc on na
no EU server direct uninstall and ask refaund
Guys it's 7PM Friday night, we all knew this was coming
Time to eat food, play with the dog and kiss grass
Let's be realistic π
we should all do taht and just forget about lotharia
Seems we are on a long break today, 2 hours and 12 minutes before they put up teh server again.
massive update coming guys, its gonna be worth SuReLY
standard EU prime time update
Bro they better fix the nodes and recipes I beg
they better fix pvp zones
100% legendary drops inc
Whats the issue with them? Only a few spawns?
(they will remove one recipe in 2 hours)
or rollback 5 mins, think that maths
It's the Mega Server update
Soon bois
Probably 3 lines of fixes,
Merge confirmed?
high tier grindspots cant become a pvp zone for some reason, also people can just respawn iinside and not be flagged for pvp (this is an old bug that happened also in lawless tropic zones) and people cant be ccd even if they are flagged
lol merge/reset all nodes xD

Add dynamic gridding and wipe, this wipe is kinda done already ngl
and fix the nodes jumping from 60% to done
Maybe steven felt bad for us so he cheated the last 40%
I'm still not convinced that's not done manually by some Intepid dev in a database
I think somebody is just checking the % every now and then and then like "close enough, let me just flip the switch"
Sounds ass
its very much ass yes 
I would personally prefer to see what the actual grind is like without shortcuts
i just want my recipes fixed 70% of my recipes are broken and make the recipes for apprentice shirts and bags buyable before the JM building that gives the JM recipes anyways
No itβs what happened last phase. Windansea was at 75% and leveled to next node. Itβs doing the same thing visually. Itβs visually glitched. It levels at 75%
then they fix crashes
Today flanker got kicked out of his guilds party because I said I won't play with him, I still can't stop rofling
if it's just a visual glitch it should be an easy fix...
Ahh ok kl, ye agreed then
weird
no shot
I never met the guy but keep hearing people say bad things about him, wtf did he do π
Yep, 100% the funniest moment I ever had in ashes
all the bad things
I don't understand why people hate cartel
Because they were first to 25 and we hate people with insomnia?
they dont belong in this pve server
ruining it for all of us
Coz they sell droogs ofc
susge
Seriously though, is Riverlands lcoked down now forever (until node destruction)?
POI gets lawless all the lvling people just run out and wait... as far as if seen... so its not really working...
Next level 4 node will be in another region?
exploits and lures mobs into towns to kill people and steal there stuff
Pretty much
That's so unexpected
saw them bug firebrand to kill it without it firing back today
That's a classic since p1
I for sure expected two level 4 nodes in Riverlands
does not make it any less cringe
Disgusting
Exploiting like that
yea, like they were hiding from everyone in the middle of steelbloom kek
Ban them all
Ppl didn't wanna lvl joeva so now we have 1 meganode in river lands xD
Ban polar too
Same on NA as a structure actually.
EU comes back and Winstead crossroads again, that would be good π
yall acting like killing firebrand is a challenge 
Ye im not surprised, winstead is a busted node
So is anybody openly working on the next level 4 node somewhere outside Riverlands? And do we know how much node exp construction crates give?
better.. after restart we get 1 server π fixxed:P
Better be the EU server, you seen how f-ed the US server is? xD
That Vhalgadim (Anvils) node is probly getting T3/T4 next.
i will go kill firebrand as soon as servers are up
that is not rly relevant to the topic even if they where killing only grems if they figured out a way to do it with a bug it would still be bad
I don't want a US server, 2.5 was crap and the good events at no good EU times.
Imagine a megaserver where regions have different timezones
but the megaserver this time was gonna have good times for both
Better to just nuke Shol, let US players play on EU for a change
Riverlands in EU timezone, Anvils in US timezone, would be sick
Albion type of server split based on time zone ain't happening.
OR once we have 2 continents, each one can have it's own timezone for events π
ye we can do that at 2030 π
You do know It doesnβt matter what time it is in game. It doesnβt effect the geographical location of player bases and their local time 
I'm talking about when bosses spawn, when node sieges happen, etc
I play EU while living in California, US. Best parts about that server is, NO American toxicity, after about 7 oβclock the lands are dead of gatherers and I can collect all of the slate!!!
true pver
are u in actual pirates by any chance
No lol
lucky
can I count on you to collect wood for me when I wanna build my next base in dayz?
This game is a serious eSport, no chill gameplay allowed
And after your guys server restart I go collecting willows, moon bells and slate.
Na players ainβt comin to eu servers so all 6 of u can have better timed events. Sorry
Cause EU server restart happens at 8pm for me.
idk the pve still hasnt hit me yet in aoc
only time i had fun gathering was actually in new world
felt more rewarding idk
I agree, new world gathering had something to it which ashes is missing
Oh yes. Loved new world gathering and crafting.
Trophy system was cool
the sound system
Ya, felt way more immersive
only good thing about NW the sound system for gathering made me have a eargasme everytime
could still have a tier 4 node at New Aela i think? it isnt in the winstead alliance
Ashes immersion gets completely lost to me, 0% connection to the world
Yes, but won't Joeva vassalize it when it hits level 3?
Weapon smithing was just easy but not easy. Took time and the level of 250 made it seem hard. It did take some time but was a much better system than requiring 400 copper ore to make a pair of daggers like ashes does
i assume a vasal cant have a vasal
I have no idea, I thought it would, but also I thought Winstead would not have 3 vassals so what do I know
maybe wrongly
the sound in new world was bis
but it is also cause mobs were located at specific places
not scattered everywhere
cant mine shitt in peace
in aoc
There was a really old slide somewhere in a livestream or something where they showed that most levels of nodes will only have 1 vassal
And it will chain down to lower levels
But I guess that doesn't apply anymore
all the current vassals say theyre a winstead vassal at least
What I heard from Shol is that Vassals are happening automatically.
Yup
Players have no control supposedly
not rly the focus they should have yet that is like right before beta kind of thing
Here we go, this is what I mean
I thought 5 and above would have 2 vassals max
And 4 and below just 1
I'm not sure how tho, the world design just feels super unimmersive to me, it's not even the graphics or sound
they changed things when they removed metro
The super flat areas, the landscapes, it just all screams old video game
But what's the new situation? Level 4 has 3 vassals always?
They shouldβve just kept metro
The scale of things is super weird to me too, some assets are crazy huge while others are tiny
i have seen some concept passes where they did a full fleshing out of a small place for a stream and it looked great and had that vibe so i hope that the finished world will be like that before release
It just seems like a lot of work to make all the landscape again, but I hope you are right.
Pre anvil mountains look like hills too
And the skybox is actually so low that it would be hard to add proper mountains
They focus on one area for the stream and then thatβs it. I can hardly go into the tropics at night cause the illumination just sucks. Turns dark looking one way then the other the moon shines. Itβs so bad there
not so much a full remake as much as adding more to it to make those flat places seem less flat and so on
I dunno, adding a bandit camp to an area ruined by leveling brush doesn't make it much better to me
not sure how that is relevant to what i said never said the rest of the desert was in a good state XD
I maybe be a bit overcritical because I used to make some money with designing game maps but it just looks a little low effort to me sometimes
did you ever make maps on the scale that they are planning to ?
No, not at all, but ue5 is such a great tool. You can just do more with it :v it's like saying a big painting can only be made with 1 color
i have not made maps in games every before so just talking out of my ass here but it makes sense to me to do a semi rough pass on the map then a much better 1 later on
You can make small areas seem large by working with elevations and cancling line of sight in the right spots, anvils did that better for sure
lots of things in this game feels like low effort
lots of things are also stated to be place holder
It's really simple to make landscapes with ue5, you can probably find a youtube video about it.
Hello friends, reminder, banana pizza best pizza
Is the map confirmed to be a placeholder?
testing placeholders 
parts of the map yes for example the node locations being so odd and flat are placeholder
Ya, obviously, they don't have it ready to change the landscape with the node upgrades
I think they're just going to update it, not fully replace it FWIW, I saw riverlands getting updates all the time in phase 1 and 2
so idk about calling it placeholder
Ya, they changed my carphin tower path again this phase :|
i can only say what steven has said and he has repeated over and over that a lot is still placeholder tho we never got many specifics of what is and is not placeholder
I feel like especially towards the borders of zones it has to be placeholers
Yeah semantics don't matter I guess, to me placeholders are things you throw away e.g. having a 3d model you're not going to use in the final game.
The mountains surrounding riverlands for example, and all the area below them. It's suuper meh
areas around nodes get me. the obvious plateaus
10pm till servers are up now
Take that EU, you can't have nice things!
It is what it is, I just started again 2 days ago, had visitors since the reset.
Idk, I'm not going to play much during workhours this time
we got quite a few level 25's running around
what is a few? 50?
the definition of "one of the first" is a loose one I recon
Dunno, it's still impossible to find random groups for level 25
seen at least 20+
So we're far from being to the point where people stop sayin their level in LFG
Man, in phase 2 it was shit also, all tanks were playing when I was playing.
different level 25's
I mean for EU that's crazy, almost half the pop. But in general 20+ doesn't sound much
Wait in a guild or whole server?
It's just someone noooticing, there would probably be more

we are not that low on players
:V
Real players maybe
@pallid elk What is it with these maintenance timers during EU prime time? People just got home from work 
we have so many people propped into winstead that it giga lags XD
You should walk into NA winstead
It makes EU win seem like a joke
I understand prime time the rest of the week so they can fix during thier work day, but on a friday is a bit much!
even during NA downtime their win has more people than our server in total I think
it's not even rendering everyone, names popping up everywhere around you as you walk through it
dont think its that big of a difference but yes i think they out number us 1/10
kebab pizza is best pizza
bobs need to keep the propaganda up
eu server is not dead guys dw
Visit sweden from the NL and try the banana pizza
1:10 is a lot
yer but not as much as you say about them having more people then us even on there off hrs XD
Oh 100%, NA full off hours has more people online than EU prime time
way more
i guess we will never know since steven never gives player numbers
They gave us player numbers before, just not this time
thank god we have pirates on eu
eu already feels kinda dead ngl
Iβve seen like 2 of them this whole time
How does that work in NA? Like every farm spot in EU is constantly full. Do ppl in NA actually pvp over them?
Did their whole guild quit or something?
thats 2 more that i ve seen
What?
? wut i see multible people every min or so when im out and around and it giga lags in winstead how is that dead
I saw a pirate fishing outside winsteaf
brother NA has a pop higher than EUs by an order of magnitude
lags in winstead use to happen on p2 as well, when lotharia had 20 people playing 
cuz the whole server is in winstead, everything else feels kinda empty
It has at least double if we can trust Steven's % population distribution.
Mega Server Patch Soon β’
right so how do they actually play, i mean EU seems crowded, if NA has 10x pop what do ppl do
just wondering
Go anvils
not talking about winstead when im out and around i go thru all the riverlands looking for slate and herbs
EU has 1 single village
should have done mega server, ppl cried for eu server and yet we lost already alot of players xdd
true and real
complaining about constant disconnects since 5+ hours isn't really playing
its 3 guilds in a trench coat pretending to be a server
yea, Steven listened to the bobs who wanted a seporate EU server. Now we all must suffer because of the PvE Andys
I mean I'm just playing both servers
I started an NA char today
why do you relate it to PVE we pvp plenty
The captain of na
where?
there isnt any pvp on eu lmao
no1 flags up on me
no set places but around poi's
If youβre not max level week 1 then you are PVE
I steal their loot and they still don't flag up on me
Im trying this game for the 1st time should I go EU or NA
People literally ignore flags and keep hitting mobs
it was the worse decision to open eu server, i hope they wont ever do that again lmao
The only pvp I've had so far is against Havoc. Seems to be the only guild who flags up for a spot
sounds like wow retail brainrot
0 pvp on EU lvl 25, made NA char and got pvp at lvl 6
actually we had some pvp against holiday also but that's been it
I think if you make a new character on EU now you will see much more PvP than you did when leveling early without contest π
cuss they dont wanna fight you guys cuss they are scared of you XD
I have had PvP most days, I am 17
I played like 3 hours a day on average, didn't rush anything
If you're not atleast level 20 by now then you're not even playing the game
imagine being scared of a skeleton crew guild
secret NA spy right here
Scared of us 
gotta be rough
This is clearly meant as a joke, but also I think itβs not a super good way to improve the server
even if you are only like 30 you fight like you stand to win money for it and if anybody even slightly pisses you guys off you harasse them for hrs 
For now, our update time schedule will most often happen during California business hours. We're in an Alpha state, so having more staff available to help with updates and address issues that happen after updates, is hugely valuable to us
For Steven's answer to this, see this message: #alpha-two-general message
i wish tbh, but thats sadly not only my opinion. eu already feels dead at 23:00 , cant find partys or shit going on.
harass who for hours

I'm a guildless and barely playing, yet only missing 2 radiant items and else maxed. If you are not ahead of me then you're not playing the game
mega server please, eu is dead
thank you for clarifying
"harass"
I fucking cant with this community
This Is what happenes when u give kds Power btw
In that case, EU is absolutely dead, vast majority of current player base is not playing the game π
just saw people complain in global about you in this phase just explaining why they dont fight back dont shot the messenger
now we're talking
About ME??
On a server I don't play
Remember guys, this is an esport, chill is not allowed
about your guild not you specifically lol XD
ye, I just reached 20 yesterday with not playing the game at all
People always complain for no reason
My Bois want spots
They get spots :)
Don't like it Flag em
then you're about 6-7hours away from 25, gz
Idk ask him
Why is he tiger hunting
Not sure what that does
But his whole raid failed miserably
10% crit chance when he could have 10% armor pen
in a meta where bearhunt is literally the only way to get armor pen
Not even armour pen its armour pen for everyone
sometimes I almost feel sorry for him
Do marks still stack?
Actually haven't tried that since a while
I think they removed it at some point but not sure anymore
Rangers are so cringe
Ranger marks/hunts just keep getting changed
:( no u
I think they changed it a awhile back
Marks keep breaking on world bosses too
Idk man games fucked lmao
:(
So now that the servers are down, what's the best way to level 20-25? Just smack forehead against SB?
Carph is over 1mil xp/h
But that's only because the server is so dead and you have it for yourself
If u dont care about gear, try to get into carph asap
If u dont mind slow xp but Better droprates Just Stick to steelbloom until 23
go anvil, go unfinished spot pull 50 15 lvl mobs --> profit ??
Carph 3rd droprate wasn't too bad
Ye we had some good drops from 3rd floor but sb Is Just printing Gear
Yet i still see people in global trying to sell their novice legendary items 

Can u tell jayco to sell me his legendary tin
He Is cucking the greatest fisherman on lotharia
@mossy bramble doesnβt want to live in a world where he is out fished by anyone, no one in Fools is allowed to craft anything with a higher stat roll than him 
Well they dont know this game has GRIND AS CORE PILLAR OF GAME
does that work well for a lvl 9 tank?
Carph is good xp if people don't screw up, leveled there last time I think
If people screw up it's slow
hows performance in Carphin generally? I havent stepped foot in there on a 5.6 build
much better
haha yeah was planning to go there but people are like. oooh there will be so many there... lets rather go to Steel Bloom. π
Nah people still have to understand how to grind thaumaturges After 10 months and 3.5 phases
when Steven said "embrace the suck" he meant thaumaturge's suck 
Prime time patches again, love it
Felt like they reduced hp of thauma and dmg of dogs so itβs way easier now
And dmg of the other guys too with the red aoe
Ye carphin Is Easy now
i might be bugging, but i think everything is now slightly easier than before. Still running out of mana as fast tho XD
isnt everything easy atm?
Everything Is Easy on a private server
They just all cc together which is worse
Quick reminder that if we had mega server we could have played during prime time
imagine friday evening on EU, after long work week you are about to log in ur lovely ashes, what could go wrong?
servers would still be down in eu prime time
thats not how time works

So disrespectful to do that updates at this time of friday
Damn now i see why u are in holiday
i`m back on onyxia
but maybe i`ll be back to deliver the 6 packages to the Clerics (wherever they might be)
how long will maintenance be ?
Who knows
π
It's starting to really piss me off that 24/7 updates and problems are always in EU prime time.
Are u gonna do something about It tho
You've got a wonderful couple years of nothing changing ahead
GUYS
They are making a thread about toxic guilds
Could u go there and cry a bit Just to show that eu isnt completely dead
No I'll stay here and fish when server comes back
GIVE ME THE FUCKING TIN
well, download is available, so decent chance it will actually come up in 30 mins
When does SB and Carph rotate as PVP POIs
Never cause the game Is ass
wait there actually is lol I thought you was joking

Honestly think that will start PVP, idk how their system works, thought itwas depending on people, but theres has been lawless in tropics with 0 people
I mean if it does anything it won't be much
its terrible
the pig stares at me all the time during the update XD
System Is supposed to be random but for some reason steelbloom and carphin dont pop us pvp zones
Code:Pig
I skim read it
why people so mad
idk but could u go there and say something like "Cartel exploits world bosses" or "They killing our lowbies in hh" we are kinda not looking good, people forgot eu server even exist
I got you fam
dont talk to me until ur 25 daven
whats ur ign i havent even seen u around

that thread is moving at 200mph sheesh
Cartel get away with it AGAIN
appreciate that brother
in other news why dont steelbloom or carphin go lawless I legit thought they would but I guess they dont
kds asked for a pve server and we got it
Prometeu has been going around calling himself KING OF THE RIVERLANDS
source: trust me bro
Low tier equipment has been added to vendors at artisanship points of interest, settlement marketplaces, and at service buildings
Oh okay, so they actually have no idea what they're doing
5 hours sir
whre is the Striders Vigilant Logistics Clerk for save fast sure
WE'RE COOKED GUYS
At a tent at the crossroad near a node
Shol up first AGAIN
EU too !
so they just readded all the novice shit
wait they added everything up to apprentice lol
yup
Just added all the stuff was on the building vendors
better late than never
Crafters rejoice, you are useless even more
seeya all tomorrow! π
HAHAHA
well, that's a good 24/7 uptime right there
you guys got any cool item from tumok?!
rip that turmok wand 
basically 2 x 10 hour downtimes in EU prime this week, so still 5/7 uptime days for EU, regardless of server
thats nice
I wanted to level as well 
and I have to day drink tomorrow so I cant do it then
ARGH
Intrepid is obviously not ready for 24/7 when they need 5 hours for a rollback lol
daily rollbacks is nuts
My expectations was soo low but still got shattered...
just wipe the server and go again no
and I crashed
thats diabolical
C U R S E D
some of the bugs like selling recipies that cannot be used in that area makes me unoptimistic about intrepid, should never happen really
argh just as I was logging in
I feel bad for the guys that spent 20mins getting spanked by Tumok
Its a rollback due to a bug, it happens
TUMOK ROUND 2 LADS
cartel still 100% of the world bosses
too fucking ez
Day drink whilst we grind
I have to bar crawl!
nice, a reroll, that means i fall from lionhold brige again xD
Wait though, the bug is something else they caught right and not them introducing recipes and starter gear into the towns?
2 rollbacks in a week ...
that's intended in the patch notes
Yea making sure, coz it's been a long day and my brain is poop rn
i thought having to craft your own stuff is cool but buying recipies that do not work is diabolical
theres even more basic shit that is just so basic and that they haven't nailed....
this crash out channel is gold 
At what time and in what time format will it be reset?
We should be happy the discussion isnt about EU's performance at Tumok an hour ago 
Eclipse #1 Fools yapper in the self appointed player council that sprung up in VC 
Fucking Vaknar had to sit here and is getting paid to listen to Djinna arguements
I hate it here

)
