Phase 2 is going to be interesting-Lyneth will probably continue to be intriguing as there are a lot of thoughtful guilds there that have coordinated world peace.how will these same thoughtful guilds throw down with the gloves off-- Please do a video on how war and alliances happened on lyneth--im on Vyra so Im not familiar with your servers politics but it intrigues me

Your haircut and this game both look like they're from 2001. Scam game.

All hail the algorithm

Don't forget for the game to work you need different areas to have an abundance of certain Matt's than other areas so players need to travel and use caravans to take resources from one area to another which means more PvP while players defend there own area.

is the desert going to still be lawless though?

Is this conjecture? Any official indication of more copper? Is the graphic just click bait?

Question, is the payment just to play the alpha? ie it will end and you have to pay again? I am lost on the payment schedule.

But what is the lvl in the desert? CSN low lvl 1-5 get there? As copper is necessary for so many low level items, it doesn't make sense to put it in high level areas.

Alpha 2 is less than two week. It's just over a week.

great video!

Surely copper will spawn there

In ancient times, metal was dug out of the swamp, after which people learned to dig mines from which ore was extracted.

can you post the patch notes? or link?

Can't wait to dodge level 28 mobs to get copper....

Once again.... You have to mine the BASALT / GRANITE nodes for it to respawn as a metal. They don't have a unique spawn for just metal. It works just like hunting, you have to kill the grem, wolf, etc, for the respawn to become the huntable version of that creature.

How about them cowboys :P Enjoy your content Xillin; keep it up.

Is the desert going to continue to be lawless? If so, mining there will be very dangerous.

What if once a node reaches level 4 the vassal nodes don't get mayors?

They never said they were increasing the size of the tropix at the start of phase 2. In the last livestream, they said "iterative" changes to the tropix, but no expansion. Whereas with the desert they also promised expansion.

Very excited for phase 2, especially for lyneth. We will finally get to see good examples of how things play out on servers that are home to guilds like ActualPirates when there is real incentive for others to challenge them.

I have found that there is plenty of metal on the map. The problem is that until we get player stalls and the economy flows. All of that metal is sitting in people’s inventory. I know this is the case because I got back on after a server reset and was amazed at how much metal I found in places that were usually empty. This tells me people are hoarding the metal and I don’t think that’s a malicious thing. I think there’s just not enough to craft with it and there’s not enough mechanisms in game to sell it that all changes when we get player stalls on the 20th.

i didnt play much was waitting for phase 2 i hope they actually try to make whatever their goal is for phase2 to untill phase3 polished like mobs spawn where they should and small stuff like this since theres gonna be way more time than in phase 1.. that was main problem for me running to another node and starting to grind there was hard if u wanted to do it as a low lvl

TLDR, 3 more nodes. (No information) Node sieges (still no beneficial reason to fight) Vassal system, vassalized nodes cannot attack the parent node. STOP. there is plenty of copper Steven even said, so you're just not in the guild that's farming the copper.

Let the copper flow!

I really hope you’re right. That would be awesome for more metal nodes available.

well said

There had to be atleast 3 new nodes (probaly 4 tbh there be atleast 1 in the tropics aswell i think) to accomodate the vassaling system since every 3 nodes only 2 can make it to village/town state due to vassalisation stops them after a bit so u needed more nodes to accomodate the required building plots for crafting. if we get a total of 9 nodes now that means we get 6 buildable nodes. not to mention Vassalisation one of those system that need 2 be working at the start of phase 2 otherwise it kinda defeats the purpose. Also vasalisation starts at phase 3 not 4 :P atleast according to the wiki I can see large guilds building a journeyman bench and then instantly vote to destroy it the moment they craft high quality lvl 20 say weapons and proceed to destroy any nodes that gets close to trying to build journeyman weaponsmith cause they aleady got there weapons made and now they dont want anyone else to catch up there

stop hyping me!

Rough time to be a Cowboys fan. Greeting from WHO DEY land and much appreciation for the gifted win. Can't wait for Phase 2 and the Rogue! LFG!!!!

I think you have to attack the other node before you are their vassal while you are both stage 3 Otherwise you will need to change citizenship in order to attack When you are a vassal, you already lost the fight.

I was on the ptr today looking across the water from Lionshold and there is just so much more landmass that extends much further than there is on the A2 test realm.

We don't all feed off the drama... we just want something to play after work.

I agree, Xillin. The expansion will spread the populations out for grinding, and dedicating the biomes to different resource-gathering allocations will be great for trade. I definitely look forward to seeing the game grow. It's a fun time to support a game we all want to see develop into a great game. I hope Steven stays focused on fleshing out the core tech and MMORPG systems needed for the game before expanding scope too much at the expense of making the Biomes we currently have too large to bring up to a more polished state. Hope he keeps his staff within his current capabilities. You want to ensure excitement does not lead to burnout on the team trying to drop too many things too fast. I know his gaming studio is relatively new, and we don't want them to get over their skies feeling pressed to keep releasing new content too fast to keep those who grind to the top level so fast they quickly burn out, and the initial excitement fades. This game should not be a race to the top level and complaining about nothing to do. Many significant systems must come online and be pilot-tested in the lab environment before being released to a preproduction environment. We should see steady progress if we do not get or push Steven and his team to scope creep or overhaul major tech and critical MMORPG systems to where they need to be completely revamped and redesigned adding months to development. The game should progress at a steady, manageable pace. With 3 or more new nodes released by the time we enter Phase III, that should provide a large enough sandbox to flush out crafting, economy, and other things on the roadmap. As long as all things combat, game stability, core systems, and game loops get flushed out, the game will be in a good spot to build content and polish the game for years and years to come. Supporting a project and participating actively in the weekly changes is really fun. Being part of the pilot lab testing team is fun. To know you played a part in impacting the final product is not something many MMORPG gamers can claim they did. When the actual beta is released, I hope a founder's cosmetic skin or a monument is placed in the world as a reminder of our collective community contribution in supporting and contributing to the project. Knowing how Steven interacts with the backers, he will do something for the community. Stay safe, and I look forward to seeing you and possibly grouping up in Verra.

I recon they may well make it so only the mayors of Lv4 nodes get access to flying mounts. After all in the end only the mayors of Lv5 nodes and the owners of castles will get flying mounts in the full release.

E P I C I was thinking we'd only get 1 node in each new biome, if we get 4 or 5 new nodes that could DOUBLE the size of the map !.! Looking forward to more metal, since i want to GM Mining and Metal Working. Great News !.! Once again Intrepid exceeds expectations <3 TY Steven <3

Also - I agree 100% that there will be much less cooperation, much more node vs node drama and much for playing with long term ramifications in mind. I'm so ready for all of it, especially the more copper part lol

Is there going to still be some desert lawless areas, like maybe pushed farther east to make room for the normal node zones?

Man, even more fighting too if there really is going to be a ton more metal in the desert. You see a caravan coming outta there and I can only imagine a bunch of guilds in the Riverlands just looking at that thing like a starving dog watching a platter of steak slowly meander on through. Lol.

as a Lyneth player Pirate software is almost 100% going to influence most of the nodes if he doesnt stick with the plan of "owning" all the desert nodes

FWIW, Hunting is pretty busted. Level 30 Hunter and I've pulled 1 heroic raven, and 1 epic Deer. Drop rates for hunt targets are busted. Where as I'm level 6 or 7 mining and I've pulled multiple legendaries.

Friggin' A!

Great video. Dig the content. BTW, you look like Rob Lowe. Seriously thought I was watching Chris Traeger from Parks and Rec.

Fellow cowboys fan? We suffer together. Always next year

I think the adjustment was over corrected. Especially if they reduced the drop of rare materials and the scale up effect. Anyone of them is fine but with all of them adjusted down it makes crafting not worth it

Lmao what? I don't have any blue gear the shit still a struggle here, just cause you can not life it and have people help you out, you are not the average player...

This past weekend, and I expect the upcoming final weekend, for phase 1 was extremely sad with many players not logging in due to an alleged wipe before phase 2. Global chat used to have constant spam for lfg, but chat was completely dead. I never even seen any announcement that there would be a wipe, but seems a majority of the community is expecting it and gave up. Should there actually be an incoming wipe, a change I personally would like to see for the purpose of this alpha would be a huge increase to the amount of experience needed for player levels. From my point of view, it was pretty dumb seeing cap leveled players on the 2nd weekend of testing for an 8 week long phase 1.

Honestly for me, its the world itself that's not drawing me in. Combat is good but the world seems to lack its own identity. I'll keep checking back in as the alpha goes on but atm I can't find a compelling reason to play.

Stalkers won't like this game haha. How dare them not let you track people that don't want to be your friend 🧐

You do know many of us never managed to get decent gear right? Lvl 15 is my highest but ill spend over an hour trying to get a group and theres just nobody, or nobody with space for another cleric cuz theres alot of clerics. Solo isnt bad but its even more boring and sow now. atleast 70% of weapon drops i see in HH are phy and i never managed to get a good blue forsaken weapon even tho i have helped kill many of those guys. Iv seen 10+ great blue phy weapons drop but only even been able to roll on 2-3 great magical ones. I agree that coordinated parties are better but basic lvl grinding shouldnt NEED that. i barely got weaker as i had only 2 blue gear and green weapons but I dont get how you say theres no more boring grind when there is simply MORE grind now. Needing to kill 180 of these 1* bears solo just for level 15 is boring as hell. Had an RoS party that was better and gave more money but not 1 single item drop and couldnt find a party for anything in the ~ 4 hours i played later, just got 3 supports and 1 dps slowly killing some bears. Solo got slightly worse, high end got worse but was prob way too powerful, just havent been able to see.

All this stuff needs to be worked out By Us the players we will dig out all the loopholes and tricks it's up to the dev to come clean up our poop.
