  1. Ill just second the notion, we have a chance to see a truly great game and excellent MMO created in our lifetimes. I've been dreaming of it for a decade or more. Should the people I've met while we wait on the forums be my friends or foe's in the game, well, at least there may come to be a sandbox with beauty, depth, and choices of the quality we all have desired for so long.

  2. Hello everyone! Recompiled the post, many people had a pouring of love for discord. We wtill have a Cinderfall Syndicate discord, though were transitioning it to a more invitational basis.

     

    Lets nya!

     

    or .. I mean lets chat.

  3. I don't have any personal issue with side effects, crazy as I am, I'd just as soon as repopulate the species with a bunch of genetically modified people grown in laboratories. forgo the traditional mating process.

     

    And I would with the most minimal reassurance that it wouldn't kill me undergo the processes to alter appearance. Being able to create a stand alone species with its own natural reproductive means isnt that important. If you can grow humans in the lab and mutate them, good enough.

     

    I played a twi'lek I know what it is to give up stats for appearance. This situation isnt any different, let me be a smol (exceptionally small and adorable) fox girl, ill take the debuffs, -strength, -int, slower learning, +agility, longer range target acquisition (not actual longer fire range though).

    But the whole stats thing is relatively unnecessary, I think its commonplace that the pioneers will have the nano former and probably some sort of mind machine interface. Everyone will have the same stats except for what you train into, or select on character creation.

     

    Im really just suggesting this as a possible enhancement of the physical avatars down the line, post launch. What does it hurt to pursue it, if you say it isnt realistic, I don't know what you mean. There are already groups of people supporting longevity and genetics research.

  4. For me it works out that they are doing the space suits. Also, it's not like every scientist dropped what they were doing just because the world was changing. I think its highly likely that the fields of longevity and genetic therapy continued on. Theres plenty of people going for the mind machine interface path instead of a purely biological immortality, Im sure they got close to mind upload or heavy cyborg-ification.

     

    So the fact that we're all in suits, and you cant truly tell whats underneath works out pretty good for now.

     

    I intend to go on and roleplay being a kemonomimi, a person with human and animal traits. Cat, Fox, Dog, Wolf, would probably be some of the commons, and if they do go on to make more suits it wouldn't be that hard to accommodate a few that have extra earspace for the niche. If they made human models, it would not be so difficult to make a few hairstyles that remove human ears and replace them with a few animal ones.

     

    As for cyborgs, I mean, same deal theyre pretty much humans with tech replacing organic portions of their body, or even being an entirely synthetic human.

     

    While yes it is more work, they'll have plenty of time after release to focus on adding some of these flavor enhancements.

  5. Im pretty sure Tierless means that everyone is a neutral player, but that you can declare your faction loyalty and be open to pvp attack by anyone else that has declared their faction loyalty.

     

    Temporary enemy flags existed in SW galaxies, where if you assisted someone that was declared a combatant you became active and could be attacked killed as well until the flag wore off. If you continued healing, or fighting the timer for the flag would continue resetting.

     

    It was valuable to decalre yourself as a combatant for various reasons, however in a sandbox like this I could see it being altered in such a way where combat declared people can come in to your peaceful little base and start taking over your territory node. The only way to stop them would be to have either of opposed them in the first place by having combatants, or to go and gather up the posse and get to fighting.

     

    If everyone was inherently peaceful instead of inherently hostile it could go a long way to building up the world. Im sure there would come to be plenty of people to fight, after all you could always make an organisation of pirates that are just hostile to everyone else, but at least the option for basic peace could exist.

  6. I just find discord to be lackluster. when you have 300 people in a room all trying to talk or Type to each other it's about like having 300 people in Skype when you have 300 people in a room all trying to talk.

     

    i admit I haven't thoroughly tested comms yet. But just having an ability to separate rooms is a huge plus. And a css imbed

  7. Hmm you see I'm more a fan of exo armor like d.va, space marines, or a forklift suit.

     

    I would probably sooner end up in a hover tank than a walker

  8. It works, it just started yesterday so it will take some time to find willing participants. We could use more EU players joining, I'm sure there is a reluctance to do so.

     

    You don't have to speak if that makes you uncomfortable. I can make specific channels for German french polish if that would please people
