So, I don't know if it's because I'm tired or just plain don't understand what they're going with but, what is the combat going to be like in this game? Are we looking at a typical MMO shooter with purchasable weaponry and armor in a pay to win model in a closed off environment complete with camping and the like? Or is it actually open world combat? I can't seem to find anything suggesting otherwise. Seems like the planning phase is finding a server joining the selected map or planet and going in for a few rounds just to leave, level up, return to the lobby and queue again.
The game is an open world 3rd person shooter the open world with combat similar to relics space marine at least from what we have seen so far meaning melee combat and lots of it. This is not I repeat not an arena shooter. It is similar to planet side 2 in it's open world mechanics but hopefully more full and will have a bit more life to outside of bases. The game will have 4 factions ( technically 5 counting nids ) at launch allowing for large scale open world warfare so not really camping there will always be that one troll sitting three with a high power weapon outside of spawn going Rolf but that guy in this game will probably get curb-stomped by a competent player if the game is done right ( which most people have faith it will and it's good to have skepticism ) so yes no arena shooter. Eternal crusade wi be an open world 3rd person warfare MMO taking place in the 41st millennium hope what I just said clears up your questions also if you have more don't make a thread it just creates clutter PM a moderator or someone who you is on the forums frequently or a moderator. Or for easier acess to loads of information go into forum search and find the quesdex anstartes or such but Savji it has all information you need to know on eternal crusade so far.
First off, it is very much going to be an open world game. The only queuing to be done will concern the instanced PvE combat. Secondly: at present, the team is looking at exploiting pikkoserver technology to put the entire game on a single server. As far as advancement goes, there will be very little vertical progression throughout the game; rather, as a player advances, he will do so horizontally- opening up sidegrades which are more specialized, but not outright "better for everything." What else would you like to know?
That's all I needed to know thank you. Just didn't wanna pay for something and have it be a closed off environment of f2p shooter fun time.
For the record: we're still a year and a half out from launch, so if you're still hesitant, I would advise you to hang out (or at least check in every now and again) and make up your mind later.
