Graphics

The graphics of this game look absolutely beautiful. I wonder how stable it will be for a bigger population cause Cry 3 Engine is a monster performance hog.


 


Moving onto PvP does anyone know if they will have a full pvp server? I read that 2 of the continents/islands were for PvE/Dungeon Crawling and the 3rd was pvp. And will the pvp be full loot?


 


And does anyone know if they will have a US server?

    I'm sure XL Games will try optomizing it, and with the use of Simplygon, I don't think this is a problem.

    The way I understand about continents are that, 2 of the continents are NPC continents, whereas one other is completely driven by players, a players controlled city/continent.

    It is indeed true that there are two PvE continents (east and west continent) with NPCs, quests, etc. and a third (north) PVP continent that is ruled by players.

    It is also confirmed that XL games is planning on creating both PvE servers and PvP servers. I am not sure what the exact difference will be though, but I guess there will indeed be open PvP at all continents at a PvP server.

    I am afraid I can't answer your question if PvP will be full loot... didn't read anything about that :>

    Well looks like it is the waiting game for us all then. The game looks very promising something to keep an eye for sure. Also another quick thing they are doing there class system kind of like how SWG (pre NGE) did theirs correct?

    Although I have no idea how SWG did their class system, I can explain the class system Arche Age uses; out of ten abilities, you get choose three. Every combination is possible, although there are 4 preset classes with preset combinations to choose from as well. Each ability has a skill tree, so it is kinda like combining skill trees as in Rift. Advantage over Rift though is that hybrids are allowed... you can be a half mage / half archer for example.

    Arche Age also allows you to swap abilities at a NPC; if you aren't satisfied with your three skilltrees it only costs a bit of money to change one of more of your abilities, although your new abilities will start from scratch.

    You can play around with different class combinations here; http://www.archeage.com/en/contents/gameIntros/11 =)
