As we reported, Ashes of Creation is a very hot topic on Kickstarter right now. After the funding goal was reached within hours, the community now sets about pulverizing one intermediate goal after the other. With each intermediate goal, new features are activated for the finished game. Some like the milestones for 6500 and 8000 supporters on Kickstarter, provide the supporters of the campaign with pets or special weapon skins.
Tonight the mark for the Kickstarter Exclusive Weapon Skin was cracked with 8000 backers (supporters). With this, players can later give their weapon a particle effect with a slight glow.
A few minutes ago the goal "Enhanced Naval Content“(Extended See Contents) unlocked. So that were now over 1.5 million US dollars confirmed for Ashes of Creation!
This additional lake content will be available to everyone later in the final game.
The next goals with 9500 supporters and 1.75 million US dollars will unlock a Kickstarter exclusive armor set, or with "The Underrealm" an extensive underworld.
This underworld should also contain nodes as well as flora and fauna. The nodes are the points in the world around which civilization can develop. In this way, the players influence the design of the world.
Housing in Ashes of Creation
In a Twitch Stream, the developers gave an insight into the house system and how the nodes in the world interact with it. The complete video is over 50 minutes long, with this link you will land exactly at the presentation of the houses / nodes.
As a brief overview:
Nodes have a certain sphere of influence within which every action the player gives the experience counts as an experience for the node.
If the node reaches a certain level, in this case level 3, it will be possible to place houses. Depending on which focus you set, whether for example: a farmhouse with fields or a forge, the area develops accordingly.
At the forge and mine, a mining town may be formed whose residents dig too deep. And similar to the dwarfs Lord of the Rings, they wake a dragon. Who, as a morning grouch, directly sets about spreading fear and horror.
This is just one of the many events that can arise from a simple decision by a player, "I'll build a hut here!"
It is precisely these possibilities that make Ashes of Creation's immense appeal, which is currently causing fans to continue supporting the Kickstarter campaign. If you are also interested, you can register your contribution on Kickstarter and secure exclusive bonuses.
