Hello guys,

 

first of all i would like to thank you for implementing gpu support i could finally enjoy your game as i am spoiled player and i like complete micro control over my character and i just could not bear a fps lag on the old client. 

 

The current situation is not perfect either and i would expect more but the game went from completely unplayable to OK state.

 

I have just started the game, doing some starter quests, crafting/gathering and generally exploring what the game offers.

 

So far i have notice few things that could be improved.

 

Client suggestions

  • ​​Better optimization, more fps and more precise control over micro actions of character.
  • Allow the standalone client to download and keep all files!! There is reason why i downloaded the standalone client i want the best performance.
  • Allow the UI elements to be positioned outside the main window frame
  • rclick camera control should allow to move outside of window frame as well, this is kind of annoying when you rotate and your mouse get stuck. I notice sometimes the camera rclick bug when i could not rotate the camera at all. Could be easily recreated in Nidaros mine every time i went there this happen.
  • (I notice i could click the minimap to issue move command, this is good but in the main client window there is limitation how far i could click. Remove this limitation or even allow for move command on big map obviously this would require to implement pathfinding.)

Game suggestions

  • The attacks should be in my opinion bit slower with more impact thus allow for more tactical combat. I don't want to imagine how unreal attackspeed will be lategame with the big stats on gear when i feel this is already problem on lvl 1.
  • Automatically issue autoattack after using skill, as now it is better to engage mob with AA then start spamming skills to not loose dps.
  • This kind of comes to personal tastes but when 50% of players i met are running with bunny suit and ears and the rest who don't is standing on some flying disks(assuming bought for $) i already know that dev time went into cosmetics, anti-immersion xmass trees and bunnies instead the game itself. Maybe i just don't get this style of humor but i would like to discuss this matter.

Im sure i will stick with the game for now so i will probably keep suggestions coming.

 

Thank you

Most of these are great suggestions (after guilds and auction house are complete).  A few comments.  Anything not commented on I just plain agree with :)

 

Client suggestions

  • Allow the standalone client to download and keep all files!! There is reason why i downloaded the standalone client i want the best performance.

By default, game files are downloaded on an 'as needed' basis.  It is then stored in cache and only downloaded again if modified.  If you want to get them all in advance, use the diagnostic tool (Windows from Eldevin install directory, use command prompt and enter 'jre\bin\javaw -jar eldevindiag.jar'.  Select 'Preload Game Files".

 

After an update, you can download all again.  Otherwise the files will be downloaded as needed when one is found out of date while playing.

  • (I notice i could click the minimap to issue move command, this is good but in the main client window there is limitation how far i could click. Remove this limitation or even allow for move command on big map obviously this would require to implement pathfinding.)

I don't recall the details, but HCS did explain the reason for the maximum click distance on move.  Perhaps someday.

As vanity is a major source of HCS income, I expect the art department will continue to design whatever people want to wear/ride, especially if they will pay $ for it.  This does not effect development time on the game as they are two separate groups.

 

The topic of non-immersive vanity and mounts has come up before.  I personally don't care, since I'm not playing this as an RPG (staying in character while in game).  So I can support the 'whatever people want' philosophy.

 

(Many mounts can be had for gold or luck, including the plain disk starter mount).

The arcane discs were a bad choice in my opinion(I understand the simplicity of it but twas lazy).. Especially since its the cheapest mount to get.. aesthetically it would of been better to have a basic horse as the cheapest or a small pony even.. Some small tamed animal from the world itself..

Mandalore, I totally agree. A horse makes alot more sense than the UFO thing. Arcane disc looks more like it belongs in a sci-fi movie (alien spaceship).


May the odds be ever in your favor

It would be cool to have 2 monitors with all the crafting and inventory windows on the 2nd screen. Another problem connected with this is that the client doesn't remember your window locations, zoom level, and chat window states when you logged out. So, every time you disconnect, all your stuff would have to be pulled back where you want them......
