Glorious Ashes of Creation Community – First HUGE thank you to our wonderful PI folks for joining us in this recording. Secondly, thank you all for tuning in and following our development journey. This is just a glimpse into our Node Wars system, and the team has been doing a great job bringing it into an alpha stage. As noted, there is still much work to be done to address VFX, UI, and performance, but the gameplay loop of Node Wars (different from Node Sieges) is what we’d love to gather your feedback on if you have a moment to toss us your thoughts! 💕🥰
Awesome update. Question about the node wars: For a node war, if you belong to the controlling guild or an ally guild of the controlling guild, but belong to a different node, can you still help your guild without a scroll, or will you be required to have a scroll of some sort to help out your guild or ally either attack or defend a node?
Looks incredible. But it would be better with druids!!
Question on vassal nodes: I know you said the vassal nodes cannot go to war with the parent node, but is there any way to possibly level up your node past your parent node and become the parent and dethrone the parent without exactly going to war?
I'm really liking the lower time to kill. You get actual battles that last rather than just steamrolling
One of the best updates , Ty finally saying all of that Steven,Thats what i wanted to hear all this time .TY !
The whole ashes team should be proud. Cant wait to play this game
I have a question. Is there a limit to how much a node can expand? Or you can endlessly conquer other nodes?
The dragon mount dive bomb absolutely blew my mind
If you ever wanted to balance and nerf the players. Just add the stamina stats to the game. With higher stamina you can fight longer and all active skills and abilities will be the strongest when you first start out. With low stamina you can't fight as long as you wish because your skills and abilities will become weaker the longer you fight.
the health bar thing is cool, but maybe 5 pieces instead of 4 for just a TAD bit more accuracy in how much damage you are doing
33:20 "They have NOOOO clue whats about to happen" i cracked up at this idk why ahahaha
I'm enjoying this update! Something i hope to see during node wars is things like those giant siege golems or maybe some kind of carriages full of explosives you have to guard to take down a gate or something.
people who dont have a life or his job is to play games can excel in pvp.
K I’m hype again
Node Wars look fun, but I absolutely hope that you'll consider adding Battlegrounds to the game so that people can have similar experiences without the need of Node effort. The rewards don't even need to be good, they could be purely cosmetic for instance.
Will players have the ability to turn down or off the particle effects from casting, damage, etc.? The effects are beautiful, but not very helpful, imo, when in large group combat situations.
$10 says he has pink eye and is embarrassed
1:17:50 i get that at this point we watching the mages and rangers but what a melee player suppose to do in a situation like that? Engage, hit 3-4 times and disengage or he must have a pocket medic with him all the time? I really hope to get an answer in alpha 2 and after especially with rogue class around cause this felt like Harry Poter battle. Respect to Dred tho and thanks for the footage!
Pretty cool that you can not only ride mounts but engage in mounted combat in PVP.
Amazing work
What's with the shades, Steven? Eye surgery or something?
I have an idea for a few op items for artisanship like the Forge of creation, Anvil of creation, and the Hammer of creation. The Forge of creation allows you to combine your favorite materials, armors, weapon while giving the final items the stats and abilities of both items. The anvil can give any item a new powerful ability while also upgrading the stats and abilities on them. The hammer will mend, fix any broken or shatter items while making it new while also upgrading the items with no cool down. You can also give op stats to other artisanship tools in-game for each profession.
That was a nice birthday gift! The hype is real
omg can you just release this f*** game already im sicked of playing wow again for the 50th time
With the holds Mayor mounts that don't change with the Mayors. I feel like it should be known as a guardian. That way each hold will have their own guardians and guilds. This way it won't affect the Mayor's personal mounts. That way when a player becomes a major they can acquire a special mount for their personal mounts that can only be unlocked after becoming a Mayor that they can keep afterwards.
Alright alright alright..
Im glad that Gambit lives on😂
The skills looks great
7 damage?? Players should die alot faster. It makes ZERO sense for players not to die when being targeted by 10x people. Players should be able to get owned by 2 people. You all need to speed up the game by multiplying the damage by 10x AT LEAST. And a dragon should 1 shot Players. I mean, what are you guys doing there… who the heck is in charge there .. my god. There's so many things wrong with this game. Also Steven is bad player. Record someone who is actually good at video games..backpeddling??? Lol
Point of feedback: the bow gameplay looks really, really goofy with that ridiculous RPM. I feel like it should shoot much less frequently
Game looks so so promising but please sort out the rangers RPM of arrows being launched like a machine gun as others have mentioned! You want the feeling of the arrow being deadly, accurate and powerful. A fast rapid skill isnt a bad idea but the animation and amount its used in this showcase is making it look 'arcady'.
However the game looks incredible, thank you and keep it up 😊
so no news on the alpha 2 date?
getting afraid is not also this year
Great job, i really like this geopolitical thing, making the game deeper. I hope we will really feel it in the air as we play as citizens
I HATE respec. You make choices and you are good at some things and not good at others. This easy button of respec in a few seconds in modern MMOs is awful.
Thx for making this happen ❤❤❤
Kudos. You are doing this the right way. Hats off to everyone involved in AoC.
