| 20s | hello everyone and welcome to another |
|---|---|
| 24s | live stream from the Glorious world of |
| 26s | Vera and we have an exciting showcase to |
| 29s | give you all today we're going to be |
| 31s | talking about our event system and I am |
| 35s | actually joined by three of our |
| 37s | absolutely wonderful developers with |
| 40s | whom you've spoken with in the past on |
| 43s | some other live streams we have one of |
| 45s | our glorious Engineers Clayton Clayton |
| 47s | absolutely wonderful glorious what an |
| 50s | introduction I'm doing great I know |
| 51s | really somebody really so many words to |
| 54s | show off all of our hard work so |
| 57s | very excited to see it with you and |
| 59s | excited to chat with the community about |
| 61s | it I know you guys have been doing a lot |
| 62s | of hard work on this we also have two of |
| 65s | our wonderful designers uh Scott how you |
| 68s | doing buddy excellent I'm very excited |
| 70s | to be here |
| 71s | yay and Amy Amy how are you doing hi I'm |
| 75s | good last time I was here we took down |
| 76s | two rocks so I'm I'm ready today I'm |
| 79s | playing cleric again so um yeah I got |
| 81s | your back |
| 83s | thank you I okay so you heard it here |
| 85s | first folks if I die |
| 89s | it's of course not my fault it would be |
| 92s | the clerical no |
| 93s | um but okay so where where are we we are |
| 96s | in a familiar biome uh many of you guys |
| 99s | should be expecting where we are we are |
| 101s | in the wonderful riverlands yep we are a |
| 104s | little bit |
| 105s | east of the last live stream location |
| 108s | which was Winstead node |
| 110s | um yeah I see Carfin in the distance |
| 112s | Carfin is even further east from |
| 113s | Winstead so we're kind of sandwiched |
| 115s | between Winstead and Carfin right now |
| 118s | um no big curse happening right now so |
| 120s | it's a nice day out okay so it's a nice |
| 122s | day out there's not like any type of |
| 124s | blood curse or Undead roaming the area |
| 126s | no not at the moment no |
| 127s | okay very cool and what are we doing |
| 130s | here in the riverlands talk to me a |
| 133s | little bit about what has brought us out |
| 135s | here and I'm gonna jump off my my |
| 136s | glorious Steed here while we talk about |
| 138s | that absolutely so uh we're actually |
| 141s | just out here to uh kill some mobs grind |
| 143s | some experience get some get some |
| 145s | resources maybe out of the land here and |
| 148s | uh eventually |
| 149s | um the world should react to that and we |
| 152s | could potentially create an event here |
| 155s | I see a a web weaver so okay so our |
| 158s | objective right now is |
| 161s | um we're going to be showing off |
| 162s | obviously the event system and part of |
| 164s | that event system is that it can take a |
| 168s | whole host of different predicates to |
| 169s | kind of kick off different types of |
| 171s | events Clayton talk to me a little bit |
| 173s | about what that oh he's on me he's on |
| 175s | yeah as soon as I'm not dying but yeah |
| 179s | so uh the event system uh it can query |
| 183s | uh a lot of different aspects of the |
| 186s | dynamic World state right now it's |
| 188s | actually just tracking player activity |
| 190s | in the world uh and uh you know for this |
| 193s | event in particular and uh it's looking |
| 196s | for us to kill some stuff so we're out |
| 197s | here killing some stuff and eventually |
| 199s | the event should trigger once uh it's |
| 202s | detected enough player activity |
| 204s | very cool and and these and these this |
| 207s | type of predicate that is the |
| 209s | essentially the activity map for killing |
| 212s | yeah the activity Maps that's not the |
| 214s | only way that these events can get |
| 215s | kicked off there's a whole host of |
| 217s | different ways that they can also yeah |
| 218s | for sure yeah so we we have a really |
| 221s | really awesome system that the designers |
| 223s | have access to uh that lets them uh hook |
| 226s | into really any Dynamic World State and |
| 229s | use that to inform the instantiation or |
| 232s | even just like the progression of uh any |
| 235s | event |
| 238s | very cool yeah these spiders are gross |
| 241s | Scott what are what are some uh plans |
| 244s | that you have for uh different |
| 246s | predicates for uh instantiating some of |
| 249s | these events yeah so obviously we just |
| 251s | got this kind of generic sort of kill |
| 254s | one here uh that we can use for all |
| 256s | sorts of different things for tracking |
| 257s | player activity |
| 258s | um no Big Bear time uh we also are |
| 261s | looking at the amount of resources that |
| 263s | players can Harvest as a predicate we |
| 265s | have |
| 266s | uh story arcs that are going on so |
| 268s | active stores could cause different |
| 270s | events to start yeah um trade Caravans |
| 273s | happening relationships between |
| 274s | different nodes and also just the state |
| 276s | of the nodes themselves oh even let him |
| 280s | beat me up here because it's kind of |
| 282s | cool he's charging you yeah |
| 286s | he will throw you around those Bears can |
| 289s | can really catch you off guard if you |
| 291s | let them |
| 292s | okay |
| 294s | so I see that a nearby event has started |
| 297s | the predicate has been met |
| 300s | yep oh and I see now on the mini map we |
| 302s | have a little bit of a location for it |
| 304s | yeah so just the south of us here um |
| 307s | we were just kind of uh the event has |
| 310s | kind of kicked off because of the just |
| 312s | us killing stuffer in the area here |
| 314s | yeah and we might see some visual |
| 316s | indicators over the hill here in a |
| 319s | second |
| 320s | and so when when one of these events |
| 322s | kick off it's not just obviously |
| 324s | notifying players based off of their |
| 326s | proximity with uh the mini-map and with |
| 328s | the you know UI toast that pops up but |
| 330s | also as you said Clayton we have a |
| 332s | visual indicator in world that's also |
| 334s | rooting the the event as well yeah for |
| 336s | sure uh you know Scott can could |
| 338s | probably touch on you know uh the |
| 340s | diegetic nature of all of our narrative |
| 342s | content and the uh the goals there but |
| 347s | uh oh wait hold on before we get too |
| 349s | close I'm seeing that there's some gray |
| 351s | Shore archers and a Grace or Grace or |
| 354s | swordsman |
| 356s | okay all right oh should I join this |
| 359s | event as a Defender team definitely yes |
| 361s | that'll allow if some other players do |
| 365s | come around while we're playing that'll |
| 367s | allow them to uh |
| 369s | join the event raid group with us so |
| 372s | we've effectively taken the party that |
| 374s | we had pre-formed and and merged that |
| 376s | into a new raid group |
| 381s | okay I slept a couple of these |
| 383s | um of the highway captains there's some |
| 386s | of them on the settlers right now okay |
| 390s | and the settlers are an objective type |
| 392s | that exists within this particular |
| 394s | archery exactly what I mean yeah oh my |
| 398s | God there's a lot no they're sniping |
| 400s | from up on top of the rocks |
| 402s | thanks Amy oh I see |
| 405s | I'm sorry I'm gonna go put the one spots |
| 407s | down oh god oh no no no no okay the |
| 410s | event difficulty didn't change though |
| 425s | we're distracting the the bandits from |
| 428s | the settlers right now so that's good |
| 429s | none of them have died it's Caravan |
| 431s | Integrity is good |
| 433s | um |
| 435s | um okay I see the Caravan Integrity on |
| 438s | the uh on the event note uh notification |
| 441s | window it looks like they're mostly just |
| 443s | going for the settlers right now |
| 445s | oh no those poor settlers we've we've |
| 448s | kept them up |
| 449s | nope I just saw one die oh God two of |
| 452s | them two of them went out at once |
| 457s | I shouldn't have mentioned it they would |
| 459s | have been fine |
| 460s | so our objective here is to protect |
| 463s | these settlers while we eliminate 20 of |
| 465s | these Highwaymen |
| 467s | okay okay |
| 469s | but there's probably another wave coming |
| 472s | yes there's still some Shore there's |
| 475s | still some gray short people around I |
| 477s | see is some of them coming from uh |
| 478s | Northeast there's an arsonist coming oh |
| 480s | there we go there we go |
| 482s | oh and some from uh downhill Northwest |
| 484s | too Scott why are they coming from the |
| 487s | north |
| 488s | so we're actually pretty near one of our |
| 490s | pois which is actually under Bandit |
| 493s | control uh the apathy named Highwayman |
| 496s | Hills is just over the corner just |
| 498s | around the corner here |
| 500s | um so they'll be attacking NPCs kind of |
| 502s | in this area until such a time as uh |
| 505s | players deal with it via story arc |
| 512s | guys alive right |
| 514s | okay all right we did it |
| 516s | all right okay do you survive okay so it |
| 520s | says prepare for the final assault so |
| 522s | this is this is stage based off of our |
| 524s | kind of |
| 525s | our progress our activity our our |
| 527s | success what is this yeah so we just we |
| 530s | defeated the requisite number of of |
| 532s | bandages which is going to progress the |
| 536s | stage here and and during this stage |
| 538s | here we can reset some of the traps that |
| 540s | the bandits used to initially destroy |
| 543s | the Convoy and we can use those against |
| 544s | the bandits in the next phase which is |
| 546s | actually more difficult so |
| 549s | yeah we'll definitely need them uh |
| 552s | whenever they they the bandits do come |
| 554s | with reinforcements they're probably |
| 556s | going to be bringing their best so |
| 558s | especially because we have more players |
| 560s | now so the difficulty of the event will |
| 562s | be more when there are more players and |
| 564s | of course like all things in ashes the |
| 566s | more difficult to challenge the better |
| 567s | the rewards and also uh you know our |
| 571s | clerics can have some time to heal up |
| 573s | the the settlers and uh you know |
| 576s | hopefully set us up for Success whenever |
| 578s | the next round does come in |
| 581s | and how do we how do we leverage the |
| 583s | reward system how are people you know |
| 586s | getting calculated what rewards they |
| 587s | should get uh so for events like this we |
| 590s | have kind of a number of metrics that we |
| 593s | can use I think we're going to be doing |
| 595s | a lot of testing to figure out what the |
| 596s | best metrics are because there are some |
| 598s | ups and downs using like pure the amount |
| 600s | of damage you've done you know in the in |
| 601s | the raid and stuff like that um and |
| 603s | we're also look like more relaxed things |
| 605s | like how much time you spent you know |
| 607s | participating in the event whether |
| 608s | that's doing damage or healing allies |
| 610s | and things like that as a as a |
| 612s | percentage of the total time of the |
| 613s | event |
| 614s | um they all have their drawbacks and |
| 615s | benefits some are |
| 617s | uh you know we got to be careful about |
| 618s | yeah |
| 620s | um but yeah we'll just count up the |
| 621s | contribution however we end up balancing |
| 623s | that and uh then we have different tiers |
| 625s | of rewards that are given to each |
| 628s | individual player based off of their uh |
| 630s | contribution score in the event as it |
| 632s | works right now it is just simply a |
| 634s | matter of how much time you've |
| 635s | participated in the event as a |
| 637s | percentage of the total time of the |
| 638s | event |
| 639s | very nice and and so as that kind of as |
| 643s | that winds down people will be you know |
| 645s | granted a gold silver bronze tier kind |
| 647s | of reward status and that will be the |
| 650s | entitlement for the types of rewards |
| 651s | they get from these events exactly and |
| 653s | really that that's just going to |
| 654s | determine the reward table that they're |
| 656s | going to get and then each player is |
| 657s | going to roll their own reward table uh |
| 660s | independently |
| 661s | very nice I hope I'm gonna get rewarded |
| 663s | for all the healing I'm doing yeah yeah |
| 665s | uh Amy you deserve it |
| 668s | raid leader yep uh our timer is up and |
| 672s | Corvin the crusher appears to be on the |
| 675s | way |
| 676s | oh God he's coming all right we're gonna |
| 678s | heal almost immediately |
| 683s | oh my God there's a lot I'm gonna I'm |
| 685s | gonna try to sleep some of them |
| 688s | oh never mind there's multiple balls of |
| 690s | lightning |
| 692s | see if I can line this up right |
| 695s | he's gonna try and use the wraps as best |
| 698s | I can |
| 703s | man this is really great I am on fire |
| 706s | wait we have them in a choke point right |
| 707s | now we definitely want to keep them away |
| 709s | oh there's birds we want to keep them |
| 710s | away from the Caravan and in this choke |
| 712s | point |
| 713s | I got him to trigger the Trevor here I'm |
| 715s | hitting them with a lot of aoes right |
| 716s | now |
| 719s | and the only objective here as you can |
| 720s | see from the cracker is to kill Corbin |
| 722s | uh so until Corbin goes down yep uh I'm |
| 726s | trying to prioritize their healing and |
| 729s | DPS |
| 730s | so that we can have a better chance here |
| 731s | I think with with the uh |
| 734s | The Raid group of eight we seem to be |
| 736s | set up for Success here |
| 738s | uh Corbin the crusher Amy uh Scott would |
| 742s | either of you want to touch on uh the uh |
| 744s | event difficulty tier and what we intend |
| 747s | to do with that as more players join the |
| 749s | event |
| 751s | as soon as people join in I I yep |
| 755s | it's more difficult |
| 760s | I don't know if you thought but we had a |
| 762s | toast saying that the event has |
| 765s | progressed from its original state as a |
| 768s | group event to a rage level event that |
| 771s | was a veteran better level and of course |
| 774s | that comes with more challenges more |
| 776s | optional objectives but also uh |
| 780s | more rewards so it's never it's never |
| 783s | going to be like a bother to have other |
| 786s | people join you it's uh it's all part of |
| 789s | uh part of being in a like multiplayer |
| 792s | environment is you know the more friends |
| 794s | growing up with you the bit |
| 798s | yeah you know I think it's uh cool that |
| 801s | you touched on the rewards because yeah |
| 802s | the designers have have the ability you |
| 807s | know just from a technical perspective |
| 808s | to use the difficulty tier however they |
| 810s | like in the event they can modify any |
| 812s | aspect of the event's difficulty or even |
| 814s | you know the the reward that you're |
| 816s | you're getting they can query that in |
| 818s | the reward table data |
| 820s | we're doing pretty good here this |
| 821s | Caravan hasn't really been taking much |
| 823s | damage at all yeah people hold them off |
| 824s | pretty well yeah the tank was able to |
| 826s | intercept him at that choke point so |
| 829s | yeah seems to be working too this Elite |
| 832s | healer is rough |
| 834s | yeah that should be very hard to kill |
| 836s | some of the gray Shore Swordsmen and The |
| 839s | Archers are still alive |
| 842s | we can change that we have the |
| 844s | technology |
| 845s | ah there we go |
| 849s | we win |
| 851s | congratulations is there reward well you |
| 854s | know there's also a grateful settler |
| 856s | here presenting us the the reward uh |
| 859s | maybe he has something to say let me |
| 861s | talk to him |
| 862s | greetings grateful settler |
| 866s | praise aryak |
| 868s | they might have killed us without your |
| 870s | intervention please help yourself I will |
| 872s | help myself thank you what type of |
| 875s | supplies are we talking about oh you're |
| 876s | one of those Heroes |
| 878s | unbelievable this is difficult difficult |
| 882s | uh task you know you just head over to |
| 886s | Highwaymen Hills and join the Bandit |
| 887s | Stephen unbelievable clay unbelievable I |
| 891s | am a hero in this I'm a mayor of a local |
| 893s | network oh my God |
| 895s | a shame it came to violence we are |
| 897s | hopeful we could leave that behind on |
| 899s | Sanctus okay yeah I want you know I'm |
| 901s | hopeful of that too but you know |
| 902s | sometimes we can't just get what we hope |
| 904s | for so Whoa We got some wool |
| 908s | yep |
| 910s | we got some more okay I got some wool |
| 913s | you're also granted uh on the events |
| 915s | completion you're granted like a little |
| 917s | stipend of golden experience just right |
| 918s | away uh but items that can be looted off |
| 920s | your body they have to come from like |
| 922s | reward chest so every event will have |
| 924s | its own little reward cache at the end |
| 925s | of it you'll grab your materials and |
| 927s | items from and I |
| 928s | know |
| 930s | that's my reward why'd you get Tim |
| 933s | Amber uh well that it rolled I got that |
| 935s | uh reward from my reward table maybe I I |
| 938s | participated better than you so I got a |
| 940s | better resource |
| 941s | how dare you |
| 942s | I was out there doing a lot of work |
| 945s | uh and uh Scott uh this this NPC he's |
| 948s | also configured to actually uh interface |
| 950s | with some of the story art content too |
| 951s | right if the story arcs were online it's |
| 953s | true yeah I think they it is online |
| 955s | actually it's just not active check it |
| 957s | out check it again Stephen |
| 959s | oh okay where am I going uh talk to the |
| 961s | guy again I think you might have missed |
| 962s | a dialogue opener okay here we go okay |
| 964s | okay the tough one who are these people |
| 966s | why were they who are these people let's |
| 968s | see they're desperate folks who prowl |
| 971s | the hills captain |
| 973s | udoxia in lionhold is looking into the |
| 976s | matter I should seek her out and find if |
| 978s | there is a better way I could help |
| 980s | around here you know what I will do oh |
| 982s | okay here we go |
| 986s | oh I see a lot of different placeholder |
| 991s | rewards A Bridge Too Far yeah they're |
| 994s | rewards for the for a lot of the quests |
| 996s | are still not uh fully Done Yet uh-huh |
| 1000s | the events do hook into all of our story |
| 1002s | our content so if there are store Works |
| 1004s | online we can like since our quests are |
| 1007s | non-linear events can help you kind of |
| 1009s | into those quests |
| 1011s | um if they're online this event can |
| 1012s | happen whether or not the stroke is |
| 1013s | online but if it is you can pick up the |
| 1016s | like uh leave into that Quest from him |
| 1020s | um if you're not you know if you haven't |
| 1021s | been to line hold in a while since the |
| 1022s | story arc has started |
| 1023s | very cool and so obviously |
| 1026s | um you know people saw a little bit |
| 1028s | during this event that the Adaptive |
| 1031s | Difficulty was predicated on the number |
| 1033s | of participants that opt in to uh to |
| 1038s | partake in this event right |
| 1041s | correct yes so as more players join |
| 1043s | um the the event does get more difficult |
| 1046s | with who we went from the regular mobs |
| 1048s | to the elite mobs |
| 1049s | um in corvins entourage some of them can |
| 1052s | be |
| 1053s | you know more more enemies to fight some |
| 1057s | can have completely different stages or |
| 1058s | mechanics |
| 1059s | um depending on which what the event |
| 1061s | actually is and and what your objectives |
| 1063s | are for that event |
| 1064s | and these these events are based off of |
| 1068s | different predicates within the world |
| 1069s | state so for example this particular |
| 1071s | event was a caravan that was moving |
| 1073s | throughout the world and as you as we |
| 1074s | said in the beginning it was based off |
| 1076s | of the activity heat map of players |
| 1078s | within this area but this type of event |
| 1080s | this Caravan event that was transiting |
| 1082s | Goods uh popped up because nearby nodes |
| 1085s | may have either been advancing the |
| 1088s | relationship between each other or there |
| 1090s | might have been a trade Caravan that got |
| 1091s | kicked off in the past and we're |
| 1093s | representing kind of that |
| 1095s | um that theming within the World by |
| 1097s | these event types correct yes so events |
| 1100s | are predicated by things that players |
| 1102s | are doing whether that is no development |
| 1104s | uh you know trade agreements between |
| 1105s | nodes |
| 1106s | um |
| 1107s | all of it like relationships between |
| 1109s | nodes I mean um so it could be more than |
| 1111s | just that could be War States or |
| 1113s | anything like that as well so so cool I |
| 1116s | noticed that even though we succeeded in |
| 1118s | the event we're still in our event raid |
| 1119s | group Scott what's the thought behind |
| 1121s | that are we supposed to go and adventure |
| 1122s | with our new group right now |
| 1125s | if we so desire yeah the event ending |
| 1128s | doesn't dissolve the open party for the |
| 1130s | event |
| 1131s | um the open parties have some sort of |
| 1133s | default |
| 1134s | uh like party configurations that can't |
| 1136s | be changed so they'll be stuck with a |
| 1137s | group Loot and stuff like that |
| 1139s | um but we do try to encourage people to |
| 1141s | continue to stick together and play |
| 1142s | together |
| 1143s | um the game the game is hard so uh |
| 1146s | it's good to play with friends yeah I |
| 1149s | just left the raid I don't want to play |
| 1150s | with you |
| 1151s | he's going to join the bandits I called |
| 1154s | it yes I'm looking for The Highwayman |
| 1156s | Hill band yeah |
| 1158s | very cool okay and then obviously we saw |
| 1161s | during the event um there are obviously |
| 1163s | multiple stages that exist each of those |
| 1164s | stages having Unique Mechanics |
| 1166s | associated with them |
| 1168s | um there are a lot of different types of |
| 1169s | events I me that you and the narrative |
| 1172s | team and Scott that you guys are working |
| 1173s | on creating each of those events types |
| 1176s | will have different similar stages like |
| 1178s | we saw there was a trap stage here that |
| 1180s | we can set up is it intended that these |
| 1182s | stages are going to provide players with |
| 1183s | kind of downtime to recuperate and also |
| 1186s | perhaps set up and strategize how they |
| 1189s | want to address the upcoming challenge |
| 1191s | well I I don't really know about you but |
| 1194s | I'm I'm my heart's beating right now I |
| 1196s | feel like we've been challenged and uh |
| 1199s | of course there's going to be moments |
| 1200s | where um there are like less less uh |
| 1206s | thing challenges which rely Less on your |
| 1209s | class kit than usual but I think that in |
| 1211s | general if you want to like really get |
| 1213s | down and understand the story and the |
| 1215s | appreciate the world and then probably |
| 1218s | uh you're gonna want to focus more in |
| 1221s | the story arcs where you can take things |
| 1223s | at your own pace |
| 1225s | we have we have some events that do |
| 1227s | other things like there could be some |
| 1229s | that are just puzzles |
| 1230s | we have an event in here that is |
| 1233s | actually just like you can attend a |
| 1234s | funeral for just an NPC that can pop up |
| 1238s | and there isn't actually any combat to |
| 1240s | do in that one rewards are adequately |
| 1243s | scaled but there are events in here that |
| 1245s | are just kind of for flavor and for |
| 1246s | fleshing out the world a little bit too |
| 1247s | that you can participate and learn more |
| 1248s | about yeah I think there are going to be |
| 1250s | some moments where where um you might be |
| 1252s | like frustrated that an event is like |
| 1254s | obscuring something that you want to get |
| 1256s | to like a |
| 1257s | NPC that you need to talk to for your |
| 1260s | quest or something so then then |
| 1262s | Gathering people to help you is going to |
| 1264s | be really useful |
| 1266s | awesome very cool and that that event |
| 1268s | there at the last stage had |
| 1270s | um kind of like a little mini boss dude |
| 1273s | um is that kind of a component of all |
| 1275s | events that you guys are intending to |
| 1277s | incorporate or just kind of some events |
| 1278s | will have those mini bosses some will |
| 1280s | have them uh there's gonna be a whole |
| 1283s | lot of these and they're going to be at |
| 1285s | different tiers of of Challenge and uh |
| 1288s | you know kind of I guess uh |
| 1291s | like power level tiers |
| 1294s | um you know they're not all going to be |
| 1296s | you know defeating the you know |
| 1299s | end-all Dragon being at the end some are |
| 1302s | just you know about helping people |
| 1303s | there's somewhere about |
| 1305s | um |
| 1306s | uh just building up the world of Vera |
| 1308s | which is a very difficult and |
| 1309s | challenging place as people are trying |
| 1310s | to resettle it there's |
| 1312s | um there's all kinds of tiers for |
| 1314s | different levels of heroism |
| 1315s | um |
| 1316s | and helping the small time people to |
| 1318s | Downing giant foes and these are |
| 1321s | obviously a bit different than what |
| 1323s | people have seen previously with Carfin |
| 1325s | where we showed off kind of the story |
| 1326s | arc system that fundamentally changes a |
| 1329s | particular location or area for an |
| 1332s | extended period of time that exists |
| 1333s | within stages that are might be |
| 1335s | multi-days in length these are more |
| 1338s | bite-sized kind of digestible end-to-end |
| 1341s | 20-minute gameplay right right |
| 1343s | definitely a shorter than a story arc |
| 1345s | which yeah as you mentioned before is |
| 1347s | meant to be taken kind of at a slower |
| 1348s | Pace |
| 1349s | um can your individual path through the |
| 1352s | story arc is a little bit more measured |
| 1354s | like you're less reliant on uh |
| 1357s | like the pace of the actual story arc |
| 1358s | it's more about your own personal Paces |
| 1360s | through the quests and then as the story |
| 1362s | arc advances |
| 1363s | over time like over the course of days |
| 1366s | then you you know can dive back into it |
| 1368s | and get more involved in it again |
| 1370s | very cool and then if there are people |
| 1373s | who you know might be |
| 1377s | um problematic to a particular event |
| 1379s | like this gendrach guy oh okay |
| 1384s | I think it's triggering like this |
| 1385s | gingrac guy we could like you know |
| 1388s | attack them or something right oh sure |
| 1390s | we could yes |
| 1391s | you were aligned with the bandits Maybe |
| 1395s | and there are some events that do have |
| 1397s | you pick sides in PvP yeah uh you know |
| 1400s | whenever Stephen joined this event uh he |
| 1402s | had one option to just merge us into the |
| 1403s | event rate group this was a PVE event uh |
| 1406s | but there are going to be events with uh |
| 1409s | sanctioned PVP where there are multiple |
| 1412s | team options to join |
| 1414s | got it got it got it got it okay very |
| 1417s | cool well |
| 1419s | I'll let jindrak live this time guys |
| 1421s | that was a super exciting uh event |
| 1424s | showcase I know that the community love |
| 1426s | to kind of see this stuff obviously |
| 1427s | events are an integral component of |
| 1429s | making the world feel uh kind of dynamic |
| 1431s | and representative of what is happening |
| 1433s | around the area it gives people insight |
| 1435s | into particular locations and the type |
| 1439s | of activities that might be occurring |
| 1440s | but it also gives really interesting |
| 1442s | ways for us as players to interact with |
| 1444s | that environment and affect change as |
| 1446s | well and be rewarded for that uh |
| 1448s | activity I think it's super cool you |
| 1450s | guys done a great job with standing up |
| 1452s | the event system and populating the |
| 1454s | world of really compelling activities so |
| 1456s | thank you for showing us a little bit of |
| 1458s | the work you guys have been doing |
| 1460s | towards Alpha 2. I know that the |
| 1462s | community loves it and we'll be back on |
| 1464s | stream to talk a little bit more about |
| 1466s | this |
