Something tells me that PvP will be way more chaotic that it was shown, because this was a bit scripted. Loved what they did with water shaders, hopefully we will have different one for each body of water. I dont expect a swamp to be the same color as ocean.
"No horses were actually harmed in the making of this video" 😝. Thanks for the update, it is coming along and everything they put out has seemed solid to great IMO
Awesome video dude, I loved the raft and the water flow system as well! I wonder if people will spawn a bunch of their own empty caravan rafts to block the river since you can only land at certain points to rob caravans on the water?
Ooooh interesting thought 🤔 I also wonder how much time it actually saves on a trip considering the construction and deconstruction (on rivers). But I guess it’s a safety / stealth advantage?
Good question, if there's no bridges anywhere along the route due to node development I'm betting many people will use the rivers to traverse to feel a bit safer. With collision though and enough of your own empty caravans that maybe a group of bandits setup due to good info from a spy you could force them to give you the cargo on the water. If not then it's destruction time, also if we can destroy the rafts on the river, will the water flow carry them away?
Why would you destroy a free caravan and kill all the horses? Perhaps its just an alpha thing, because it doesnt make any sense at all to me. Destroying the caravan on the move seems okay, but not when the threat is dealt with....
In an irl standpoint sure we wouldnt, but for the in-game standpoint, the caravan is assigned to the player who placed it, they still own it so if you bring it to the node for them then they will get the resources not you. Hence destroying it and placing your own caravan.
Ahh so you’re suggesting more of a hijack system. Yea I think just from a game standpoint this way is simpler. The player essentially becomes/controls the caravan so it makes sense but yea from an irl perspective I totally get it 🤔
True. I think the more likely scenario that we’ll want/see is that you don’t see your ally effects/spells. They’ve spoken on this being customizable and good for performance. But yea if we choose to see ally effects I’d love a red glow
i can say problem is with VFX arts,visual effects,animations looks worse every year idk what they are want to make it,but dont like it!Combat is great and like it alot,also question is how good will be this caravan system i like more if you once destroy thats all,you lose materials and need to start again and try it to protect your materials/caravan!
Yea the visuals got me have been quite inconsistent, but great for the most part. A lot of wip stuff still occurring of course, but honestly streams wayyy long ago sometimes looked better than this showcase
they need to spend more time with this too,i really want visual will be on next lvl!Right now the worst look game,every spell animations,visual effect looks terrible like large ball,blizzard and light strike!this is the easiest part to fix that problem!Whatever i like the show case,combat looks good and pretty smooth!@@Nyce-Gaming
Something else that I noticed is that there are no bounce lights from the ground on armor. Maybe its dark because they turned off some the settings for the sake of performance for now.
2 things. !. It looks like AoC is doing stealth right. I know that cloak gets bagged on in ESO, but stealth in ESO actually sucks compared with stealth in the games that came before it (looking at you DAoC). AoC seems to be going in the DAoC direction, which is great. 2. Not being able to pick "squishy" targets by just checking the number on display in their health bar. Going back to DAoC again because hey, but you picked targets based on their animations and how they were dressed. You had no idea how much health an enemy had. Another great move. With that said though, I really hope that they don't let people use skins that do not match their armor types. That would get hella confusing if all of the soft targets could just wear plate mail skins and look visibly like tanks. This doesn't seem like a thing if ESO is your only experience with this type of game, but it is a big deal for a game with actual archetypes.
I disagree as I love transmog. However in aoc you will know an opponents weightload as it'll be indicated on their nameplate. So say heavy armor is a triangle ; that'll be on the name plate.
@@Nyce-Gaming ironically the bard/tank is called the Siren . Bag pipes , the perfect instrument for someone wanting to piss the whole neighborhood off .
How would the combat choice be a crap show? I don’t understand this notion that action combat = bad. Aoc is tab and always will be so let’s focus on that. And to answer your question as someone who plays action games, NO I can’t imagine 😆
There will be no caravan PvP in the game. There will be no caravans in the game. No player in their right mind will ever ship goods with a caravan in this game. This is a Non-Issue.

That Caravan PVP stream looked amazing😁👍!
Mindboggeling it allready look this good pre Alpha....
Agreed!

🫡 rip horses 😆
Stealth in doac was the most fun I've ever had in a mmorpg. I hope there's a darkness falls that was in daoc in this game. I can't wait for this game
Couldn’t agree more! I would love to see them implement some kind of Realm Rank Points system for additional PVP attributes
@@GenXOG yes I would like that too.
Such a great stream! The raft was amazing.
Yessssir. Hella impressed

@@CatSnievans oooooooh true. Hadn’t thought about being destroyed whilst in a river 😲

@@kreirian I am sure there are game mechanics that can be placed to change the owner of the caravan. It shouldn't be that complicated thing to add.
For gameplay reasons it would be too easy if they just kill managing the caravan.
Something like this haven't even crossed my mind. Wtf. I was dazzled by everything else.
Good point about the shadows. They look way better.
I knew they would improve it beyond the shadow of a doubt
@@Nyce-Gaming lol thanks dad
This reminds me of DAoC on crack. Im all tf in on this now lol sink or swim! Maybe breakthru on streaming?
Here's hoping! Im excited
@@Nyce-Gaming ditto my guy!
Looks good so far
Indeed! Only up from here
they need to add the red surrounding enemy aoe. it looks good slightly static but the spell are very confusing

Dunno man, shadows still look too dark for me and everything is saturated with colors which makes some spells look horrible.
Really? Fair. They look sooo much better to me. But yea I totally agree that the spell effects are looking super vibrant to say the least
@@Nyce-Gaming Not all of them. Mainly Ball of Lighting and some tank abilities.
Something else that I noticed is that there are no bounce lights from the ground on armor. Maybe its dark because they turned off some the settings for the sake of performance for now.
it was a feedback by Narc
@@sospokemika1197the vibrancy on ball lightning and the like may be due to their high damage; I.e., the vibrancy may be a balance mechanism
The game looks nice!

@@Nyce-Gaming that's a good work-around.
Pretty good
The bard tho
🎵 🎶 yesss
Bard needed/needs bagpipes!
@@tonydalimata if they get them it KOS
@@Nyce-Gaming ironically the bard/tank is called the Siren .

So, when the battle commences....is EXACTLY why we don't need action combat.....can you just imagine the complete crap show it would be with that.....
