    Archery Aiming - Poll

    I think it kind of matters. Consider these two result. Poll 1: Do you prefer A or B? 90% A 10% B Poll 2: Do you prefer A or B? 4.5%A 0.5%B 95% Indifferent Obviously, that's a rather extreme example. But suppose doing arrow tip based aiming is more technically challenging. Knowing a large part...

    Archery Aiming - Poll

    I really couldn't say until I play the system and get a feel for it. A reticle done right really doesn't kill the immersion factor for me that much, its one of those systems that really kind of disappears and you never really think about it once you've played the game a bit if you get what I...

    Personally, if I invest in any stock in SV it's not an investment in the same vein as my other investments. Like yeah, those are there to yield me money and for no other function. It would be to drive up stock values and actually be a shareholder in SV. And if I make some profits doing that, cool.

    Archery Aiming - Poll

    Yes. Tip-based is great so long as it's not sacrificing the quality of aiming that we could achieve with another system. The quality is my first and foremost concern whatever system we go with but tip does sound nice if they feel they can perfect it relatively easily with the resources they have...

    Archery Aiming - Poll

    Neither or either. I don't care what the system is as long as it feels good. I want some kind of system that's intuitive and relatively easy to predict where my arrow will land once I learn how much curve I need to be compensating for. If they can pull that off with the tip then all we need is...

    I don't think aiming feels great in MO1 either but the one thing I am noticing is they have arrow trials just like archery did in Darkfall. I think this is REALLY important to how an archery system feels. As a real archer you get a feel for about where you need to aim for your arrow to hit the...

    Starvault Has Stocks

    Today is hopefully my last day ever of college before I get my business management degree. I decided I wanted something that allowed me to take the knowledge I was learning in my classes and attempt to apply it to trading stocks. I used much of my first stimulus check to invest in stocks as they...

    Starvault Has Stocks

    That's kind of why I'm reluctant to grab them as a serious invement. I tend to buy fairly safe stocks when they are doing incredibly poorly. Like I got into the market this year buying stocks like Alaska Airlines that are strong companies in a field that had recently taken major losses (Airlines...

    FYI: Persistent Release (Early Access) Delayed Until March 2021

    https://mortalonline2.com/forums/threads/starvault-has-stocks.927/ Figured I'd make a separate thread. We seem to have veered pretty far off the original topic.

    I'd kind of like to see a falloff crosshair. One of the ones where there is a line for a flat shot at the top and then smaller lines for further range shots beneath. Getting a true arrow tip aim working a video game seems to be more of a challenge than it is IRL and they don't seem to be pulling...

    Combat is boring, a note to Henrik.

    The depth precisely why I am here. We were playing Conqueror's Blade before and I actually enjoy that game quite a bit for its combat system. In terms of an arena combat game, it's one of the best I've ever played. But you step out into the open world and it feels dead. There is barely any depth...

    Archery

    If the arrow tip isn't accurate, and the crosshair isn't accurate, perhaps we need an aiming reticle that is accurate? Something like a large circle if that is what the arrow is going to fall within or a fall-off reticle as bows have in some games. And if nothing is predictive of where the arrow...

    Star Vault AB I might actually consider pick some up if I get the job I'm gunning for right now. A bit risky for my general portfolio but in this case I'd mainly be buying to support the game and so I can say I'm a shareholder. XD I mean I guess I could be a shareholder now for 51 cents but...

    Archery

    Yeah if the crosshair isn't going to help me tell where the arrow is going but actually throw off my shot if I try to use it then I'm sure that's something they'll be fixing. That's why I thought the recently patched archery system felt "awful" because I was aiming the intuitive way one assumes...

    I actually am expecting an early rollout of the mount/taming system before release now. That was already something teased as one of the next things in development after December and we're talking a March release now. If mounts, magic, and taming are not all at least partially implemented at...

    Ah so it feels bad because it was working one way then changed to another. I suppose when the next patch hits I'll play around with it more. Definitely doesn't feel like they're done tweaking it yet though so I'll hold off on doing too much with it until then.

    Hopefully. If they add in some special moves for foot fighters to restrict the mobility of people trying to get by them then you might have things like heavy melees clashing at the front while people move to get flanks and stuff. Actual battlefield tactics.

    That would actually be pretty cool to see something like wagons implemented. It's confirmed we're going to get ships so I could see it potentially getting in around the same time that happens.

    Good. Then your mind and body are ready to accept the inevitable. You shall be my first pet. Bow before me, kiss the royal emblem upon my cloak, and there shall be no more pain.
