Forodrim 57 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 NQ just posted a concept art picture of in-game pets: They are generally more active on twitter, sharing some nice concept pictures.

But they're purely cosmetic and don't do anything Shadow 1 Link to post Share on other sites
ATMLVE 636 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 They've never shared them before though, except the little orange guy. But there are five tiers, and I only see three potential ones in the picture. Link to post Share on other sites

huschhusch 78 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 English (google-translate) I had hoped for a C-3PO translating to English or Lua, or at least an R2-D2 assisting with flying.

Zamarus 358 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Rad stuff honestly. It's also for the best that they are purely cosmetic as Lethys indicated Link to post Share on other sites

Although, I must admit the recon drone looks very cool, a walker element would be nice and the recon function then can be done with lua i guess Link to post Share on other sites

A fancy name yes, and that is perfectly fine. I would love however elements as a "base" element for drones. Especially the leg elements, both two an six legged ones. Then you can use them to create and program your own drone. huschhusch 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Ryoko_Takahashi 70 Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 I actually prefered the original lvl1 concept art/video. It has more of a Ghost in the Shell kind of feel. The one on the right side from the new tweet feel way too much like CHAPPiE to me. Kurock, huschhusch and Anaximander 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Lambert 8 Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 They may be purely cosmetic right now, but I’m wondering if they will serve something me purpose in the future where people can purchase pets on the market and you’d need certain skill sets to use and operate your pet interface. I’m hoping this is the case, because what’s going to happen when you get attacked and someone kills your pet. How will you get it back? When you respawn, does it also respawn? If you survive and your pet does not, can you resurrect it at a node? Something would need to happen as people would be upset if their pet dies and they can’t get it back.

Lethys 3073 Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 Or...they can't be attacked at all. Dun dun duuuuuuuun I personally think that pets which give a bonus to smth or can be used with certain skills are boring and a useless copycat mechanic from other mmos. If they would add that some day (which i doubt) then it would be just a matter of finding the best pet for the task, buying/building it, selling it If possible and rinse and repeat. Or just have different pets in your alts. Link to post Share on other sites
Hotwingz 633 Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 If you loose your pet in any way it seems obvious that you just click the summon button again. Like it has been for 20 years. Naturally they can mix things up by making it a schematic requiring components but I doubt that. It seems to make sense that kickstarter pets won't be tradeable. Just a cosmetic summon. Link to post Share on other sites
