Greetings, fellow LotC’ers!

 

All the following content is aimed to promote the good functionality of a hopeful transition, filled with warm and fuzzy feelings. We aim to maintain clear communication between the teams and audience, providing innovation and constant perseverance within the community. As you all know, 5.0 is rapidly approaching us and whilst there is still some time to go, many alterations will follow the same; I present to you today, some of those which I have been working upon, and continue to!

 

Onto the topics!

 

 

Voting Competitions

 

Following the transition to 5.0, Voting Competitions will reveal their return. At the end of each month, all votes will be counted and the player with the most amount will receive something special, be it minae or custom items provided by the Staff Members involved with this project. We hope to continue the prior tradition in a better light, and further its length for as long as possible. In order to enter, you merely vote on the websites available and presented to you within the LotC Forums;

 

While you may not win the competition every month, you still acquire some great items and minae along the way!

 

Vote here;

Market Stations

 

Alongside the much awaited progression to another map, we are going to introduce and implement the addition of Market Stations! Market Stations are varying areas spotted around the map of Axios where players may decide to sell or acquire an assorted array of valuables and goods; given that some are harder to locate than others, providing a challenge as well as great adventures for everyone!

 

 

 

The following Market Stations will be available from the release of 5.0, whilst many others (which will remain undisclosed for now) shall appear further on in the month, and the duration of the map. Keep in mind however, not every equal Station will hold the same items;

 

• Mineral Materials

• Compressed Mineral Materials

• Special Mineral Materials

• Singular Mineral Materials

 

• Lumber Produce

• Woodworking Produce

• Natural Produce

• Miscellaneous Produce

 

 

Oh.. This is a thing too. Idk..

Thank you to everyone involved in the creation of the above trailer, I could not have concluded it without your aid and undying professionalism. Chamosial, Jaeden, BGBuster, Trinn & Mephisto. I love you all, from the bottom of my frozen heart.

Wonderful video and very informative post, tbh.

I'm not sure if I understand the market stations. They're premade shops hidden out in the wilderness? This could be interesting, and would at the very least be a way to get the economy started without people having to vote. Are these designed to be used throughout 5.0, or are they mainly there for the beginning? I feel like they could end up being nullified extremely early by people not selling and only buying, or vice versa.

F*ck this is so informatively hype.

I'm impressed.

The beginning of the video made me turn around to see if the old guy had gotten out of the closet again, no worries tho, He's stuck.
This looks so Nice.....Yay!

Sorta like the trade routes mod in skyrim? I gotta mine in one place and trek an hour to the store on another island which pays the most. While at the same time braving bandits and other hazards. I fuckin love it.

The excitement is real! Good trailer and the market is such a great idea!!! Look forward to it.

When a trailer almost makes you regret you have a one week vacation when the map comes out. /Almost/

[Krism 67]

Awesome trailer and the map looks nice. But i still can't help but get a scared wipe looking at those massive roads running through it.

I still feel a smaller map would have been better, since i predict the roads to be a barren wasteland for RP most of the time.

 

But hey, maybe the map will surprise me. Looking forward to it [:
