Questions and Answers: Q: [12:41] Can you quick-vault over cover when sprinting? A: Yup. Q: [42:50] Will we get a knife execution? A: We have a knife execution. VQ: [43:37] Regarding the War council, how many members will there be and can they join and affect the battlefield? A: We don't have a final number, there there will be a small number. They are players and can join the battle as a Warlord. VQ: [48:31] Will there be NPC quest-givers? Will there be flyers and how can they be countered? Will there be deep-striking drop-pods? Will there be infiltration/stealth and how will Scout-armor work? How will you handle armor decorations? Can we have armor battle damage and dust/dirt? A: We don't want to add distractions with NPCs. After we add flyers, we will consider things like missile-launchers. As we make the game more open-world, we will add drop-pods but there will be limitations. We have Striking Scorpions that won't be invisible but you won't see them from a distance. We are sticking to the brand, so we will have control over decorations. Q: [1:02:25] Will faction-grenades act differently? A: Yes. Q: [1:02:45] Do you consider problems in large battles? A: We always keep performance in mind. Q: [1:03:31] Has first person view been tested yet? A: It would change too much so we are not doing it. Q: [1:05:01] Can we ram people to death with a vehicle? A: Yes, with any vehicle. Q: [1:06:18] How is the founders access testing going to work? A: No check-lists, just do what ever you want, break things, and report any bugs.

[1:03:10] Second random giveaway winner. Questions and Answers: Q: [7:05] Do capture points move after battle? A: They are mostly fixed at the moment, but we are testing and investigating. Q: [36:34] How will the Auto-Cannon differ from the Heavy Bolter? A: The Auto-Cannon will be used by Chaos. Q: [38:07] Are requisition points permanent? A: You have a currency to spawn Elites and Heroes, but vehicles use faction resources that the Warlords manage. Q: [39:39] How will two factions be able to fight on the same side over a base? A: We are looking into it. Q: [40:34] What will the differences between the Lascannong and the Melta Gun be? A: The Lascannon has a really long range while the Melta Gun has a short range. Q: [41:53] How will you make players use the Stalker Bolter to snipe with, more than the Lascannon? A: We are constantly changing the Lascannon to make it be a bad choice to use against infantry. We are also changing the Stalker Bolter to make it more lethal. Q: [43:30] Can we disable the grenade trajectories? A: We added an "insta-throw" that does not use the trajectories. Holding down the throw-grenade button shows the trajectory. Q: [45:41] Can we loot dead bodies for ammo? A: The different factions don't use the same ammo. We might look into Orkz being able to do that, but for now there are just ammo crates and consumable devices. Q: [47:46] How much experience does the team have with shooters? A: We played a lot of shooters. Q: [49:49] Will we be able to attract the Tyranids to specific locations? A: You can't make them go to a spot, no. You can however take advantage of a base that is fighting the Tyranids. Q: [52:49] Where are the three suns? A: They are still here. Q: [53:14] Why did Brent cut his hair? A: Didn't really intend to have long hair. Q: [54:09] Does range of targets increase or decrease the suppression effect? A: Not at the moment. We do have plans to increase the suppression versus scopes. Q: [55:27] Can we buy founders packs during founders access? A: Somewhere between founder's access and Founder's beta we will stop selling founders packs. Q: [56:58] Does headshots from sniper rifles do insta-kills? A: No, but they do 3x damage at the moment. We might never make them insta-kill targets, unless you are using the Lascannon. Q: [58:13] Do you plan to change the way the Assault Marine works? A: We are in the process of adjusting the jump packs. Q: [1:01:27] Have you considered long-term goals that take a long time to achieve, such as Veterancy? A: Yes, we have a lot of them.
Eternal Crusade: Into The Warp - Episode 21 Summary: [0:12] Introductions. [0:36] Summary of the Twitch episode. [1:18] Production updates. [20:45] In-game battle begins. [28:18] A talk about spawn camping. [58:15] Random giveaway winner. [1:04:14] Second random giveaway winner. Questions and Answers: Q: [20:14] What hidden level would you add if you had the time? A: Black Library. Q: [20:33] How good is Nathan at the game? A: Been an FPS player for a long time... Q: [20:51] Any more info on the second foundings games mentioned? A: Nope, but still something we would like to do. Q: [21:33] Are you considering having global/calendar events? A: Yes, we have an ongoing global campaign. It is all player driven. Q: [31:39] Can you kneel with the heavy bolter for more accuracy? A: Not at the moment. Q: [32:55] What factions will you be playing? A: Nathan: Blood Angels or all. Brent: Orkz and Chaos. Katie: Chaos. Q: [34:49] How are you balancing the game/factions? A: We are doing a lot of things. Q: [37:03] Will Terminators be in the game? A: Yes, but not for launch. Q: [37:44] Can Night Lords cling onto the roof? A: We just added something similar. Q: [38:34] How many levels are there in the current map? A: Four. Q: [44:12] Will faction leaders be able to join battles and are they killable? A: Yes and yes. The actual leaders will probably only be playable by the dev-team. Q: [47:32] What's your vision of the support gameplay (psykers)? A: You can spec your class to be more support or offensive. It's best to play with a group. The apothecary can carry a Bolter and the Sorcerer can use offensive spells. Q: [50:02] Previously we had heard there would be multiple smaller continents at launch. What was the thought process behind switching to one large continent? A: The decision was technical. Q: [51:37] If two Space Marines ally with the Eldar and beat the Orkz over a base fight, who gets the base? A: The race that initiated the battle. Q: [54:28] Any chance to see melee combat with more weapons? A: No two-handed weapons, but we have others. The work is not finalized yet. Q: [56:13] What types of PvE are you planning? A: We are focusing on the PvP right now, but after we get the AI done we will look into it more. Our PvE will resemble zombie games and Killing Floor. Q: [59:10] The Heavy Bolter looks great but the spread seems somewhat wide atm, at least from the tracer fire graphics. Does it have a greater effective range than the regular Bolter and does bracing or balancing it on top of low cover still reduce recoil & spread? A: Most of that we will resolve when we do the balancing. When aiming/bracing, the spread and recoil improve. Q: [1:1:55] Why is Nathan not on the list of team members on the website? A: We have not updated the site yet. Q: [1:2:44] Will Windows10 be a compatible OS for EC? A: Should be easy to do and is expected, yes. Q: [1:04:44] If I kill a developer's character in-game, for how long will I be banned? A: It's ok.

Q: [54:15] What is the point of being a Xenos founder is only Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines will be at launch? A: You will never get the same deal that you get from the founder's packs. Q: [55:03] When will we see more items in the RTS? A: When we have somebody available that can take care of it. We want store items to have the 3D equivalent in-game. Q: [56:09] How effective will melee weapons and Warp powers be against vehicles? A: We have AV weapons. There will be AV Warp powers as well. Q: [58:12] Have you considered a stagger mechanism that would make players lose some of their momentum? A: That happens. Q: [58:57] Can the assault class wield two melee weapons? A: Initially no, but we will look into this later. Q: [59:34] Will you give us a full demonstration of all the cover system mechanics before the Founder's access. A: Yes.

Q: [38:36] Will the Tactical class be able to use the Storm Bolter? A: Yes, but they will be very expensive. We will look into it. Q: [41:20] Could a Raptor pick up somebody, fly them up and drop them? A: Not something we will look at yet. Q: [46:48] Will the UI be editable? A: Not right away, but we want to give you that option later. Q: [50:26] After the Chaos vote many worry how Alpha Legion is actually going to be represented in the game.

Q: [52:45] Will Sorcerers be able to spam offensive spells spells? A: These are support classes first of all, but you will also have offensive spells.

A: First we want to make sure each weapon type has a working execution. There will be more executions in the game as time goes by. Q: [45:30] About the camera view switching shoulders, why can't it be done? A: Switching camera view from shoulder to shoulder is not an easy thing at it is not something we are planning to do.

Q: [48:50] What advantage will a melee class have in close combat? A: We will adjust the backwards movement speed. We will be adding a melee sprint. Assault classes will be able to jump forward and attack. Q: [52:03] Have you finished the Sorcerer yet? A: LoL, no. Nothing is finished yet. Q: [53:08] Why are the Salamanders not an option? A: We don't select factions based on how many people play them. We are not keeping them from the vote, but we already have a list made. Also Salamanders use a lot of Flamers which we don't have yet.

You can visually customize weapons, add-ons to your armor... anything we can make. Q: [50:43] Will there be observer cams for things like MLG/Dev streams?

Q: [43:03] Will there be a Librarian? A: Yes, of course... just not yet. Q: [44:24] Will there be physics on characters, like ropes and capes? A: We are still debating that.

Q: [53:57] If I bought the game already, would I have to buy it again to play on consoles? A: We are hoping to allow transfers (from PC to Console), but you can't have both without buying it again.

With the color schemes, insignias, custom weapons, balancing... it could take a long time. Q: [41:53] Will bikes be considered a mount or a vehicle? A: It's not a horse, it is a vehicle. We don't have mounts in our game. Q: [42:47] What do you plan for Nightlords? A: We are looking into it. Q: [43:59] Will Land Raiders or Titan Warhound be added? A: Titans no, again.

A: We are about to add that to the store. Q: [54:30] Will the servers always be up for testing or only some days? A: This is a closed-Alpha.

Q: [55:41] If in the Founder's access we kill a developer, will we get their head as a trophy? A: Nope. Q: [56:19] Could you give us some info on voice comms? A: It is in-game, it is not optional. There will be squad/command/clan talk. Q: [58:25] Since new factions will cost money, how will you counter under-population for them? A: We have a large set of tools that we also use to counter over-population. Q: [59:38] Will we have some minutes for training/tutorial before our first match? A: For the closed-alpha, you will be thrown right in. Q: [1:00:55] Will there be a gore system for body parts? A: Yes and No, we don't want a lot of gore and body parts flying. Q: [1:02:22] Will Katie play the game and how will we know it's her? A: She will play. She will be the one spamming grenades and killing everybody. Q: [1:03:14] How will Plasma weapons work? A: They will have charge & heat, but we will also add an arc and maybe an arc-preview.
