the Light frame is going to be very similar to the Firefall frames; minimal mechanical coverage. (Fist attachments are also optional).

At this moment I'm trying to keep important features of the game hidden, so I can't be too open about it. In general, it's a top-down rpg similar to Diablo and Titan Quest...though honestly not on that caliber since I'm just one person. I feel like the game is good enough and fun enough that I...

The video game is 99% likely to release first. It's practically finished...I believe it's finished... I'd be play testing it right now if my power wasn't out. I've squashed all the bugs I could find myself though I'm sure the pet ai script still stops after some combat parameter that I haven't...

I'm scheduled to talk to a Small Business advice entity in two weeks to talk about forming an LLC for a game I plan on releasing on Steam. Additionally, I will be getting contact info from someone who knows a business in Nevada that forms LLCs in Nevada. The license cost in Nevada is $425...

I believe they were compensation rewards when switching to the new crafting system in the late Closed beta or early Open Beta...I don't remember when the switch happened. The switch made certain resources useless and the devs wanted to compensate players, so you could turn the useless resources...

weapons in Monster Hunter never break, their sharpness dictates what areas of the monster you can cut through. The sharpen weapon item takes somewhere around 5 seconds to use and the weapon is fully sharpened. It's really inexpensive and more part of the routine and plan rather than a...

Monster Hunter does this with their melee weapon sharpness. Each cut against a monster reduces the sharpness of the weapon and eventually the weapon is too dull to cut armored areas. The player then needs to sharpen the blade, usually during a fight, to resume cutting armored vulnerable areas...

Here's a website that compares the packs. https://gatestrider.one/legacyPackcompare The earliest packs were sold to fund earlier aspects of production. The Newcomer packs are funding current development and therefore Newcomer packs are more susceptible to upgrades at the generosity of Grummz.

I don't recall if those had been answered.

Commander coins are essentially passkeys that will be usable in-game to access special areas that only people with the coin can enter. Owning a Newcomer pack of Archon or above will grant their corresponding coin and the benefits the coin grants; Bronze, Silver, Gold. Refer to the bottom of this...

Not much has been confirmed for activities beyond constantly fending off monsters from bases and resource gathering. All in all, it's too early in development to give definitive answers. Grummz knows the game needs something substantial to keep people playing when they've reached an "end game"...

Reminds me of my gripes about claim stakes. Though the Em8er planet is supposed to be massive and therefore have a seemingly unlimited amount of claim stake land, there would only be a finite number of beach-side stakes, or waterfall stakes, or cliff side stakes, ect ect. That's where I think...

Meta gameplay in dungeons/raids is one of the reasons I hate doing them. Players eventually find exploits or glitches in how the AI works to cakewalk the mission. Once that happens, it's the only way most players approach them...and in some cases it feels like it's the only way for players to...

Sending out thousands of emails at the same time unfortunately can't happen. Therefore people will receive their email seconds to minutes later than others. The gate codes are limited in how many times it can be redeemed. Of course one account can only redeem it once. But when the code only...

I do agree that at the get-go, everyone was paying money into this. But I will say that part of developing modernized systems is developing the smaller pieces that eventually combine into what we were promised. Kaiju hunting was always a part of the concept: Open world base building and thumping...

The big drill mek is going to happen. And a few months back it was announced there will also be stationary drills similar to Firefall's. https://medium.com/em-8er/personal-t-h-m-p-r-s-progression-b5994a042424 Em8er has not changed its ultimate vision. Thumping is still there and always will be...

I've seen arguments that character skins can be p2w. The first time I heard the argument, they were referring to FPS weapon skins that occlude less of the screen. There's also skins that make the character harder to see because of color, size, and dimensions (smaller stature, easier to hide...

Fortunately Em8er will not have pvp at launch or the foreseeable future. The 4v1 Monster Hunting gameplay will be purely PvE.

I would hope players can spontaneously open a menu to join any active hunt or create a queue. Traveling to the Instanced hunt is simple, your dropship picks you up just like your Thumper or you walk to a dropship pad in town. I agree that hiring a npc for a hunt would require additional ai...

Varying the cost based on npc skill seems needless. There likely would be too many opportunities to argue that a medium and low rank npc are both too dumb or insufficient with the help they provide. I would say if the npc was to cost anything, it should cost a minor amount. Reasoning is a...
