Once a Metropolis's Zone of Influence reaches it's max size and covers 20% of the world's Nodes, are there reasons built into the game-design asides from possession of the Node Relics for the Zones of Influence to fight each other?
Even when I am in the boring real world, I want to be surrounded by the ambience of Ashes.
Do you have a plan to move some features out of the initial release to integrate it in later updates ?
If feels like some features are linked (i.e they have interactions), but not all of them.
Here are some examples to explain my point:
Another related question, what kind of content can we expect in future updates ? It seems unlikely to see new zones since it would probably unbalance the node system
Beta 1's are usually closed and happen about 1-2 months before launch. Beta 2's usually happen 2 weeks before launch.
This is a broad generalization but it's how most video game stages seem to function, I don't think this is a question they will answer because it could be descriptive of an approximate launch date. That being said, probably multiple years.
-Have maybe a bounty board where players can sign up to be a criminal or bounty hunter and then we can go hunt and evade eahother around the world for extra rewards
-Have open world pvp, risk vs reward, and the ability to play as a pvp criminal or a pvp bounty hunter for world pvp rewards or pvp currency or something.
-get xx number of player kills or # of bounty kills or evading the bounty etc. I want to do world pvp to progress my pvp build or slowly unlock pvp items, gear, special stuff etc.
i loved how in archeage there was rotating pvp zones based on activity so it was always fresh hour by hour world pvping and running packs or pirating packs. I quit diablo 4 because there is only 2 small pvp zones that never change. helltides rotates but pvp zones dont. it got boring.
i loved how warcraft had pve gear and pvp gear. and there were different stats and bonuses for each type that helped for what style you like to play
i always wished an mmorpg had the ability like you toggle character titles above the head, but toggle how many players you have killed. seeing someone like <Nina> "216" instead of <Nina> "The Alchemist". But it only counts once per unique character you kill. so you cant kill a friend over and over to gain higher number. This way sometimes you come across a player with tons of kills and its like OMG there goes a serial killer villain type be careful around them be on alert, also more satisfying when being a pirate or bounty hunter seeing these stats under the name.
I really loved the pvp system in archeage and the court/prison system was hilarious 10/10. reporting the blood, leaving a comment, going through the character wrap sheet and seeing all their kills and comments as they argue they are innocent. lmao

What's the status of European servers and realms?
Will Alpha 2 be open to us ?
Assuming that there will be items that are incredibly challenging/rare to acquire, will they have an intense impact on your appearance?
For example: an aura that a player obtained that changes the appearance of the skybox wherever they walk.
since taxes are set by the mayor, is there going to be a way to see the tax rates in different towns and cities from the world map? similar to how in new world, when you click on a city, it tells you the tax rates which are set by the ruling company
