Hello @Vaknar , In EVE Online, we have reputable players who hold the deposit of money, and they only transfer the funds to the other party once it is established that both parties have fulfilled their promises...

I am a lover of player driven content, but there is a catch here, AoC needs a tiny system because it is not possible withdrawing money from the Node.

AoC differs from EVE in that you cannot withdraw the money from the Node and keep it for yourself. In EVE, however, it is possible to take the corporation's money and abscond with it. In fact, scamming is one of the 108 careers suggested by the developers.

I think AoC requires a system for using the Node's money to pay ransoms. To facilitate this, a window should be created where the mayor can allocate funds from the node.. Even citizens and non-citizens should be able to donate money by walking up to the Node's bulletin board, clicking the ...

We're just as excited to participate and play in Alpha Two as everyone here. It's challenging at times to remain patient for the game. Open development is bittersweet when you're excited, as some have already pointed out.

We try to show off content as soon as it's ready to be shown off. We know there are some specific systems that players want to learn more about. The teams that work on those systems are hard at work, and we are excited to show off as much as we can, as soon as it's ready!

So, do you think this would only work if it were an integrated system? Or, do you think players could make social and verbal agreements that could accomplish such actions and goals (for the most part)?

I think when there are opportunities to make verbal agreements like this, politics, intrigue, and sabotage become more.. interesting?

Ashes of Creation will absolutely not have pay-to-win of any kind. In addition, once we launch you'll only need a monthly subscription to play Ashes of Creation. There will not be a box cost to start playing the base game or future expansions.

Interesting to see an array of opinions on data mining. I could understand arguments for or against it, speaking from personal experience with other MMOs I've played.

I believe there will be some stuff that the team does not want data mined... This could make for a potential question for our next Q&A! :wink:

Some seek glory by facing off against the most fearsome and ferocious beasts Verra has to offer, in barbaric and bloody battles to the death. Others seek the same monstrosities, but for very different reasons. These gastronomical gladiators risk their lives every day, not for gold or looted valuables, but for the finest tantalizing cuts of fresh monster meat. Unless youโ€™ve experienced the intense flavor of honeyed cyclops tenderloin infused with fresh rosemary and sage, slow cooked for eight hours, itโ€™s difficult to understand their obsession. Recipes like this are closely-guarded secrets for the Gingham Chefs, a consortium of culinary artisans who have devoted their entire lives to mastering the creation of such delectable dishes. With exceptional dedication and patience, the Gingham Chefs are famous for their unparalleled ... Read more

Hey all,

Like a few other people say in this thread, we havenโ€™t done a balance pass on things like aggro generation values and Tank abilities. The Development Update Livestreams are intended to show our progress and the direction things like the Tank archetype are taking. As we say in almost every livestream, what weโ€™re sharing is a work-in-progress, and not the final product.

Youโ€™re right that we donโ€™t plan to have DPS or threat meters in game, and that instead there will be animation and ability indicators to show that Tanks may be losing aggro. While we havenโ€™t shown this yet during a livestream, we spoke about this during the February 2023 Development Update. For people that missed this, hereโ€™s a ...

It's awesome that you're doing this, and I'm sure BCG's project is in good hands! ๐Ÿ™Œโ™ฅ
