Yeah the zone is nice. Its a shame they had to disable most of the quests and even the ability to make Tier 5 Bags and tools. I could not sell on the auction House yesterday and have not tried today yet. This had way to many bugs and was reminiscent of when the game first started. All that is missing is a dupe bug.

They really should have released this game under Unreal Engine and made the debut change to UE5. Almost all of this bad shit would have never existed and work on the game could go at a lightning pace in comparison with UE5. Nice to dream I suppose.

I wont be back in town till Monday, and Im sure they'll have a large patch already dropped or waiting to drop on Tuesday or something. If later in the week, Ill just wait. I'd rather not compete with random fucktards anyways. Definitely dont want to deal with bugs.

Ques are insane now. Guess I will be only playing this in the late mornings.

When I made my char I made him on the lowest pop server so i wouldn't be in a queue. guess i was transfered to a server with a queue.

I am actually interested in how they are going to do raid (confirmed sandworm)

Brimstone patch has been 10/10 for me IMO.

Roadmap Update

- Postponing leaderboards (in the works atm)
- New expedition in the next few months (unique mix of amrine and starstone)
- Winter convergence event in december
- Sandworm in brimstone will be a raid that is coming to PTR soon (It is intended to be extremely difficult)
- Cross server OPRs coming soon
- Gear set management is coming
- Transmog is a work in progress and coming soon
- "Creator Campaign" will occur simultaneously with the fresh start servers

*Weapon Balance*

- Will be more heavy handed with balance in the future to prevent weapons from getting out of hand
- Reducing stamina damage of musket
- Flamethrower will be nerfed
- Viability of blocking
- Stamina damage is being looked at while blocking
- Blocking in group combat is being looked at
- They intend OPR to be a little more melee oriented
- They are OK with having snipers in OPR, but not entire teams
- Looking at how scoring works in OPR to incentivize players not to stat pad with bows or muskets
- No plans to add role selection to OPR or arena (was discussed internally, decided against it)

*Territory Control*

- When you leave a company there will be a 3 day CD before you can join a war
- War fatigue coming soon. Limiting the number of wars a single person can do in a day. This will be account wide!
- They will be adding time windows to territory influence (e.g., 1-2 territories generating influence) in an attempt to drive players to those zones
- Fort control points will control the amount of influence generated (can control more than one fort to increase multiplier)
- Intention is to reduce the amount of time required to push influence
- Practice wars are coming (but not on the roadmap right now)

*Crafting*

- New trade skills will be added soon, nothing specific to say about it yet
- There are plans to increase the "depth" of crafting, but have nothing to say about it

Plenty of ways to make money now

1) 2x a day, you can get 500g from elite chests
2) 3x a day, you can get triple gold/xp rewards from faction missions
3) Lots of shit you can sell on market for money

new PTR going up with Leaderboards feature and Starstone mutation coming. God damn these devs. can hustle out the patches like no noones business

I just want to know something. I hate the idea of having to click on a chest and then wait out this timer that can be interrupted by a single hit, causing the timer to reset.

I want to know how a person thought this idea was wonderful. Then I want to know how the hell somebody thought it was a great idea to have to open a chest twice. I assume it is the same fuck that designed the new doors. Sometimes I just do not understand how it can be so difficult to implement ideas that are fun and not frustrating as all hell.

The scorpion cave with the exploding eggs is the worst culprit. People troll the shit out of that one

I suspect most of it is to discourage bots from harvesting the stuff.
