The New Eo
Hello everyone,
after our first roleplay sessions, we understood that the main concerns were:
1- connection problems
2- movement and combat
3- inventory and saved characters issues
4- level up system
5- magic system
1- So, to address this, we changed from Photon Fusion to Photon PUN (a more reliable and stable networking solution). We've been playing for the last 2 months and we feel all the connectivity issues are in the past now. So, moving forward.
2- We implemented Opsive's Ultimate Character Controller and it's looking awesome. We had to tweak a bit to create a Flying Ability (important to us or our dear Ravenfolk and Fey would be grounded)
3- a lot of players were having problems with inventory and characters losing their data. We took some time off to find these problems and address them. They were being caused by our DM Client overriding player's data, now it's in the past.
4- A lot of you were asking for a level up system, but our level will be in your skills. So, we understand everyone wants to see the little "what's my level" up there, but look at your skills now. Train the skills you want to level up and their level will increase their use.
5- Magic in Eo is as before, but we improved the system to make it more.. explicit than before. You still need to figure out how to use magic, since it's a matter of knowledge in this world. Some people understand exactly what you need to push to cast a Fireball, others have no idea. So, if you're the second case, you need to find magic books that will explain it or maybe a tutor that knows how to cast spells. In time, with more players, maybe someone will even open a Magic School to teach people. We'll see. All the magic in Eo can be seen in your skills, since magic is also considered a skill here. The more skill points you have, more spells you'll be able to use.
Stop and Breathe a Little
Hello everyone, here's some things you've saying about Eo:
- Long load time
- Connection issues / lag
- Characters too slow
- No sound control / settings
- Areas too small
So, after gathering all the feedback, it's time to take a step back and re-start fresh. We're gathering everyone in the studio (that means 2 devs, 2 modelers and 1 illustrator) and we will tackle all the feedback we got from you guys. Focus on the negative reviews and what's wrong with the game. We'll take November and December to work on a massive overhaul and come up with something that will make all those negative reviews make no sense (we hope).
So, let's hear what else you think should change about Eo to make it an amazing place for us roleplayers.
Here's some other issues we'll look into:
- Can't spawn too many animals, bad AI code, game lags.
- Hunting is not ok, skinning is terrible
- There's no indication of what you can gather (should be or not?)
To give everyone else a roleplay update about what happened when Eo was born:
- Redwood changed its name to Darkwood, the forest has been corrupted by Maeve and her followers, a temple was built to the goddess. Maeve created aberrations that make the forest a big threat.
- Luktharus found the corpse of a dead god, Lucifer. He formed a group called the Dark Monastery and is still trying to raise the god from the dead. Lucifer was killed by Eo when he tried to destroy humans and elves.
So, let's get ready to fix.
Write here what you think has to change to make this an alpha early access.
