Sneak Peek - Map Infrastructure For Aegis 2.0

[KarmaDelta 969]

Thanks for the info petyr. Now about those destroyed tempels... if there is any.... play a big role?

Edit: Sorry for asking so many questions Petyr. I guess im trying to squeeze everything out :P ill stop at this one.

We should have more religons in the new map. To think that all the races fighting each other have the same monotheistic religon is ludicrous.

Also, will town charter from the previous map count in the new one?

[Petyr 485]

Stoo focusing on destroyed temples. We aren't making new religions, we are making things that might lead players to develop their own religion. You guys would be angry if we simply just made other religions and forced them upon you.

And there is plenty of stuff to make rogue cults out of in the Hidden Scrolls... no one bothered to read them :(

[Boaz 57]

No more random buildings popping out of no where, No more griefed landscapes!

Can't wait for this. :)

*pats Petyr's back

I read them.... and sorry ;_;

I had my mind on a cult... shaved heads and everything :D

Not really but a cult you know :)

Edit: Do we then need to make Religion apps XD

This sounds really interesting! I would love to see pregenerated ruins for players to explore! Can't wait to see more warring factions and War popping up, hopefully some officially Army business gets created.

Anything that avoid the dense clutter that the current world has. Everywhere you walk there is some super-massive abandoned cobblestone fort. Also It would be nice to see actual sparsely populated areas between cities. It seems like where one large city ends, another one begins. There is hardly ever "empty space" between kingdoms.

Aghr I want aegis 2.0

[Ezo Karasuga 356]

Extending the day/night cycle is a good idea.

Agreed 100% There needs to be environmental factors (not players) the incites a sense of danger and fear that forces players to work together and/or take shelter.

Sorry but I have to ask: Will there be any faction/warband-like faction in Aegis 2.0 because by the sound of things the new Aegis will be very expansive and war-friendly.

[Elindor 666]

Loving the new region-ownership potentials. It will make for some very enjoyable nation vs nation action, and I can see a lot of human characters whining about how often their towns get attacked. Good times.

I want to say, if the length of a day is changed, please make the day length information nice and public so we can go to the great lengths of converting real-time into game-time. It took FAR too long to get this the first time as no one knew there was 35 days in a month, and if they did they weren't sharing it.

The new world will be great, more protections will be wonderful. Also, can the structures on donator plots be deleted if they are ugly or don't match the nation's architecture? Some donator land ends up having a big guild fortress made out of stone brick on it, and frankly they are a bit ridiculous and should not be welcomed into Aegis (or whatever we call the new land).

Which raises a final query, is there an opportunity for players to suggest and vote for the new land name? Nation and city names are up to the individual races, but the name for Aegis itself could be up for public debate. Possibility?

*mind explodes*

*mind reforms, content*

Wow..... just wow. Thanks for the spoilerz. I cannot wait for the update.

Much debate among GMs about this. It's possible that there will be an inherent name given to the map by Aenguls/Daemons/native race/God/Dragon/Petyr, but the people of Aegis may call it something more fitting and meaningful to them.

Names are tough.
