  • I'd like to play in the AoC, the new ever-changing dynamic world. In addition to the standard visual (graphical) style =), already tired of the many Asian-themed MMO - you want the usual European :'(
    1. The sandbox aspect like Archeage without pay2win and Cashshop.
    2. Openworld PVP (PK Mode)
    3. No global auctionhouse
    4. The holy trinity
    5. The housing system

    Involvement.  Community is what I feel interests me most about MMOs, but too many MMOs don't require involvement and investment.  Most games are given to a player, so you can "take" what you want, do what you want, and move on and start over elsewhere for whatever reason.

    I think the node system, local development, limited long-distant mobility, limited marketplaces, housing/store ownership in only one area, etc. will encourage players to actually be active and loyal. 
    True, community is what makes or breaks the game. Myself a community person to.
  • The node system and player housing system, and the ability to create and customize both are super exciting. They already feel so welcoming and neighborly.

    no gunpowder my friend 
  • I'm excited for all the possibilities! The legendary quests we could embark on and know that we did it, not every player on the server, knowing that we put the time, the effort, the hope into building a legendary Kingdom! That we defended it against the rival nodes! That we decided if we would save a foe and gain an ally, or if we would end a foe and protect against revenge. Knowing that I can truly be different from the next wizard, different from the next elf, different from the next player! That I could maybe one day far away in the future, make a library to help new players, or make a blacksmith shop to make weapons of limitless power! Knowing I could truly discover a new world.

    Unless you can bribe steven to let black powder be part of the game then I would say you have 0% of getting guns
  • What's not to be excited about? If the devs live up to their promises they will fulfill the dreams of many of us as well as theirs!  
    Welcome to our great community and I hope you enjoy your ride on the Ashes hype train as we all get to know each other.  Spread the word, the more the merrier!

    well said and thank you!!

    I have no idea but i would think there would be crossbows but we have no conformation sorry 
  • They may go old school with ballistae and catapults flinging flaming bolts and oil. I just want them to avoid going down the slippery slope of adding dueling pistols for the pirate crowd and in a couple years we have this.

  • For my part the fact that crafters will be great again.  In most games these days the chart topping PVPrs are the rock stars.  In SWG people were just as interested in who made those cough! elite PVPrs their elite gear.  After all the difference between 2 world class drivers is always going to be who's got the best car..  It sounds like Ashes is heading down the same Rd.
