EQN Landmark - Founder's Pack
Beta is only $20.

while I felt the alpha price was retarded. $20 I can get behind.
ESPECIALLY now the risk is mostly gone. Game does look good and Sony does look like they are being great with it.

Is the founder's pickax worth $20 though? Or should I just try and bum a key off of one of you trailblazers?

Can I delete my original character and make a new one while still retaining my trailblazer items? I'm getting conflicting answers from multiple sources.

All the perks with the packs are account based, so yes. There was an issue early on where deleting your character did not give you back those perks, but was fixed.

@Dizzam The pick as it stands now is not worth it. It's being replaced way to soon, but they are saying that they want to tweak it to give it more of a benefit, so who knows.

Also, those keys will not get you any of the perks.

For a while doing so was bugged but I believe they fixed the issues.

Well it is capable of harvesting from any tree albeit slowly which is much more useful now than it once was.

I really wish they would let us just apply our best tier axe and pickaxe. The idea of having a combo tool is awesome, but the axe component blows.

Caves in 2 weeks... Water after.. Some good insight here

DG loves this game more than he loves breasts... Never looks down.

Disapointed to hear that water will not have physics when first released but satisfied with his presentation in general and eagerly awaiting closed beta.

I'm actually somewhat appreciative of their baby steps approach. Rushing something is never a good idea and both caves and water are going to be key in formulating the idea of a "world". When Closed opens up I'll go through the process of getting my tools in order but probably won't lay a claim down. If I do put something down it will be with the idea of providing materials to other players once they open up the ability to sell stuff in game.

Lols. The youtube ad for this video is the most epic ad i've ever seen for a wow levelling guide/addon i've ever seen. Wow.

-AI Templates
-Scenario Tools
-"We expect competition for Next from Landmark"
-"Caves in a few weeks. Then combat."

Water w/o physics isnt water its just another tapestry to whack away.

Except you can swim in it

I'm not the creative type but I have to admit I'm impressed with SOE and what they are doing. This engine looks fabulous.

Alpha still up a couple hours today...

wish i could have templated my stuff this weekend, but i had no time to play. No biggie, i'm actually looking forward to the wipe and to start from scratch again. I actually enjoy it
I'll have top tier stuff up soon for people to use (then again, Dark souls 2 is sucking the life out of me hahha)

I believe they said they were going to wholesale template your claim so you won't technically lose anything as long as you have the room in your templates (which is something like 3m voxels worth of data).

ahhh cool, good to know
Now if they would add the ability to drop your templates without props ... i don't want to re-create all my workbenches in order to drop my build down.

The only problem with this is unless you built completly on flat ground the chance of finding a spot that mimics it well enough will make just dropping an entire existing claim template down unlikely to look very good. I just work with the assumption I should do everything from scratch maybe try a different style /placement type maybe instead of a pyramid I may try some ziggarut or hobbit hole or something.
