Well. Ive only found out about this game today, read all the FAQ done a hell of a lot of digging into this game... Well first thoughts are. AMAZING! Always wanted a game like this to come and im a huge fan of warhammer myself. Thing i love the most ive got to say is that tyranids are here Even if we have to fight against them. Im a terror in small skirmishes ripping apart entire armies without breaking a sweat. However tyranids in this wont be my friend but my foe. I will personally be an Eldar player due to them being my 2nd fav race in the world of Warhammer. I will study up on this game more and if i come to more than just loving it.. well ill be putting a bit of a sum to this game Anyone out there that is a friendly give it a shout here! Ive always been a guild leader but for now i think ill settle to being just a member of a guild and work up to be your strategist for the battles that will surely come. Ive never really been a front lines person but a spotter and infiltrator getting behind the enemy and taking them out without being seen. Either sniper or assassination It will be nice to get to meet you all!
Welcome and I am looking forward to see you on the battlefield, but sadly I will propably have to cut your head off since I will be playing Chaos and not Eldar but well, good luck to you and may you lead your guild to victory
hahaha. Unfortunately im a little smarter than to get up close and personal with a very angry chaos marine. Got a keen eye and i will be taking you guys out with distance.... A lot of it
AAAAHHHAAAAAA A CHALLENGE TO MAKE THE DARK GODS HAPPY, oooohhh remember to look up when you are sniping
Oooo Dont worry about that Ill be high up myself no way you will get within 50 meters of me without me spotting you hehehehe. But dont worry. It will be a nice clean single shot And if snipers cant 1 hit kill.. Well your in for a bit of pain XD
Oh ive already decided my faction. Weather or not its a good choice ill find out. But i have a long past with the tyranid race you see That should be more than enough of a clue. As i know this faction of the Eldar well via the knowledge of the tyranid race
Welcome fellow Crusader! Glad to have another 40k fan join the fray! Here is some basic info on the game to help you get started so you land on your feet and hit the ground running! Here is the F.A.Q. link. https://www.eternalcrusade.com/faq You can also find it on the top of you're screen on the left hand side. For launch (Late 2015) there is plan to have four Factions that can be played(Maybe five) and one faction that will be NPC controlled the Tyranids used as a balancing mechanic....Note there is plans in time to have all of the different factions from the Warhammer 40k lore in-game as add-on's later(Maybe even IG). Here is a link to the Factions at war on this world.(Click the tabs on the left side to look at the different factions and go to the bottom to see the sub-factions per each) https://www.eternalcrusade.com/game/factions-at-war Here is the link for the list of classes. http://forum.eternalcrusade.com/threads/official-basic-class-list.20852/ Eternal Crusade is going to be a 3rd person view action combat game mmo much like the game Space Marine but a lot more think Space Marine + Plantside 2= Eternal Crusade. There is no normal levelup no getting to level 90 and having 200k health points while a level one would have 100....it's more like the game Space Marine where a noob level one just starting to play the game can and will kill a player that has been playing for years skill based play(Headshots) There is a skill tree it will let you work on being really good at a aspect of that class and in time you can max them all out, From what i seen and heard you can max one aspect out fast or spread the XP across them all taking longer to max them out but being somewhat ok at all of them at the same time and then slowly leveling them up over time it would be up to the player and the players play style. There is also plan to have 8-10 members from each faction to be voted in as "War Council" members to over see the war effort and to hand out faction missions/objectives for the faction, They will also be able to use faction RP's(Resource points that have been gathered by the controlled bases and or a modifier where a faction/guild/chapter will get so much RP's per active member per-hour) to call in orbital strikes, air strikes and others to aid their faction and also they will be able to gift FRP's to players in a area so they can get a tank to fight off a large attack by another faction. Note the players will get RP's for killing other players, vehicles, taking bases, killing enemy NPC's like the Tyranids and completing factions/War Council objectives those RP's are the players the War Council will not be able to take a players RP's. Not sure how the War Council members will do what they do, That part is still being worked on by the dev team. Eternal Crusade is planned to be 85%-90% PvP and 10%-15% PvE The planned PvP content will have players from the four Factions fighting it out for control of the plant, fighting for bases to expand their factions control(Think Plantside 2) each base is planed to give perks for the faction that controls it in-game RP's(Resource points) for the faction's leaders to use in dire times(Give to players so they can get tanks/hero's/elites to fight off a large enemy attack) and also there is a talked about/planed supply line mechanic that might be in-game so if the bases in the rear get taken the bases on the front line gets cut off from resupply(no more ammo) giving need to make sure the bases in the rear are guarded from sneak attacks. The planned PvE content will be randomly made Dungeons in the form of Underwoulds/Hives(These will be instances) mostly to fight the Tyranids to hold them back from your bases and or retake a base you lost to them. And in doing so will earn (Maybe FRP's) items that will help your faction as a whole and the players would get XP/RP's/loot like gear. And also of note the PvE (Tyranids) content is planed to be used as a balancing mechanic to help hold over pop factions in check (The Tyranids would attack the over pop factions more so) but keep in mind the Tyranids will attack all the factions. Also you can watch a live-stream with the devs they will have live-streams when they have something significant to show in the game development http://www.twitch.tv/40kcrusade (Keep an eye out on the forums to see when the next one will take place) if you are online when they do it live you can ask ?'s about the game, You can also click on "THE GAME" tab then "MEDIA CENTER"(Drop down) then click the center option "Game Development" to watch the ones you might have missed. You should really look at the livestreams to get an idea of the size they are going for. If you like what you see and would like to help Eternal Crusade by getting a Founders pack(Also getting Alpha/Beta/Founder Game Module access/early access and many other perks for helping Eternal Crusade while in development)go to the "STORE" tab and click on the "Founders Store"(Drop down) to look at the different options also there is a option to upgrade the founders pack up to the 2nd highest pack(If you can only get the $40 US basic founders pack at the time and then later get more funds you can upgrade to the next highest one up to the 2nd highest pack). If you have more ?'s about Alpha/Beta/Game module access/Early access look in the game F.A.Q. wheel down to look for and click on 2 tabs: these should help out. 1st Q: What is Pre-Launch Game Access? 2nd Q: What is Early Game Module Access? Note the first module(10vs10 PvP arena maps) is set for Q1 of 2015(First few months of the year) You can also play the game for free playing as the orkz(Free to play race) but will have limited options though that can later be opened up by microtransactions. Note the bonus RTP's(rogue trader points) to be used in the "STORE" "Rogue Trader" is a gift the Dev team is giving the founders for supporting Eternal Crusade while its in development. So if you get a founders pack you get the bonus RTP's as a gift, $1 US=1,000 RTP's a $40 founders pack you get 40,000 RTP's as a gift from the dev team along with the other perks, Now if you were to wait tell after launch and the founders program ends and you get the game for $40 you wont get any of the founder perks, They will also be adding more and more items to the Rogue trader store each month or so up to launch and after.
