Yeah, that was actually kind of surprising to me. Not complaining since it won't feel like wasted time if you get in, but it's definitely an advantage beta testers will have if that's important at all.

That just makes it more of a blatant cash grab/pre-order leverage. Its like Bethesda has gone back to its horse armor days and decided Shelter is the standard all of their games will be built around going forward. Oh well, I still have the old games to enjoy.. for now.

Weak. Sounds like a good way to kill this game before it starts.

If they're that damn afraid of non-consensual PvP, why have it at all? Or just do server types. Will there be a checklist of requirements and a consent form to sign when seeing another player when people still bitch about getting ganked under this system?

New info out of Quakecon, mainly talking about how leveling up and the cards work. Ill insert a vid here, watch the whole thing if you want to see how it works but I wanted to draw attention to specifically 5:44 to about 6:30.
Nice, looks like a loot crate to me. They didnt say you could buy them but matter of time?

I can't wait for people to find ways to exploit it somehow. Because we're dealing with Bethesda after all and therefore there must be ways to take advantage of it

It is a tough balance act. I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually launch "hardcore" servers, but I think they have to go this route for now since at launch you don't really pick a server and your game session is migratory everytime you join. Rewarding PKs doesn't work with that model, because you'll have in theory an extremely large playpool to prey upon (since you end up on a new server each session) and it becomes an easy way to get powerful.

It's a pretty interesting system. Up to level 10, you get card packs every 2 levels. Then, after level 10, you get them every 5 levels.
Also, for people that didn't watch the entire video, a person that kills another person that is unwilling to engage in PvP, they get a big red star that everybody can see on the map, as well as a bounty that is paid out of their own caps. The person that murdered another wanderer can't see other people on the map screen, but everybody can see where this person is.
Also, you can /ignore whoever it is griefing you. This will, I believe, make that person invisible to you and make you invisible to them.
It really is an interesting interview.
The action starts about 20 minutes in.

No you fucking amateurs. You just have a friend hold all your caps so you're always, "broke" except when you need to buy things. Then you're broke again!

Not going to lie the amount of trolling us shitlords could do to people just wanting to play the game and explore has me seriously making this face.
A Star next to a griefer’s name? That’s like a badge of honor what were they thinking lol.
