héhé bien sympa tout ça

[Setsuna_Mudo]

Bah pour décembre c'est mort.
J'ai reçut un mail de FSS disant blabla patch0.7 bientôt mais aussi que Stonehenge était prévus pour avant la fin de l'année mais que finalement il fallait le testé etc... et que ça serait pas faisable.

Quand on voit le temps de tests et debug de la 0.7, j'ai bien peur d'avoir eu raison de pas me précipiter pour m'abonner... fin janvier début février, je prend les paris ! (pour une sortie sans bugs majeurs hein ! Sinon demain )

[kalanye]

en test pour les abonnés US depuis ce jour...

Par contre ca semble être une sorte d'alpha test pour éviter les mauvaises réactions au report, il manque énormément de choses dedans qui seront rajoutées au fur et à mesure.

Bref c'est pas un test actuellement, mais une sorte de preview.

(pour ceux qui l'on pas encore remarqué Stonehenge ca s'écrit comme ça, pas Stonehedge)

Sinon mouais

Citation :

"We've decided to take the time necessary to make our first major content patch right. If there is one lesson we've learned from launching Hellgate: London, our releases should be a question of "what" and not "when."

We were pushing to get Stonehenge released before the end of the year, but we realized that we wouldn't be doing the right thing to push it out before it was ready and properly tested. We're still on our schedule and meeting our original promise of providing a major quarterly update. We just felt that we would be doing everyone a disservice to push this out before it was right.

We are, however, going to have the first in our continuing Hellgate chronicles, entitled Stonehenge, into Test Center before the holidays. This is so we can get a lot of people finding the issues and getting us feedback over their holiday breaks."

-- Bill Roper

L'une des nouvelles zones fonctionnerait ainsi : une immense zone ouverte peuplée par 4 spawn de mob, un par "faction" (Bête, Spectre, Démons, Nécros). Chacun dropant une essence d'un type. Quand on a assez d'essences d'un type, on peut aller affronter le Boss de cette faction. Et quand on a tué les 4 Boss, on a accès au Boss final.

On accède à Stonehenge via la Base des Templiers, et les monstres seraient généré en fonction de notre niveau

[Parmenion]

l'acces a Stonehenge c'est que pour les abonnés?

Voui, même si les autres changements du patch (compétences, optimisations, etc) concerneront tout le monde.

Update Notes - Test Center Edition

General

Based on the number and depth of balance changes to skills in this update, certain characters will be provided a “respec token” that allows them to reassign their skill points. This token is automatically placed in the character’s inventory and can be used at any time.

All Evokers and Guardians will receive respec tokens, as will all characters in Subscription Member accounts.

PvP
A Dueling Arena has been built for those who wish to test their mettle against each other. When challenging another character to a duel, the invitation dialogue indicates that the duel will take place in the Arena. When the duel is accepted, both characters are instantly transported there.

When both characters have loaded into the Arena, a countdown begins. During the countdown, characters can move, but they cannot use skills, activate items, cast spells, or attack their opponent. After a duel has been won, the defeated character is reset, as is their opponent and a new countdown clock begins. Players can leave the Dueling Arena by activating their Recall device.

Players can still duel in other areas by joining the same party and activating their /pvp flag as before.

UI
The Mini Map is now set to the top right of the screen with character state icons appearing below.
The Chat Window is now scalable. To adjust the size of the chat window, hold down the ALT key. There is a small tab in the upper right hand corner of the chat interface that can be used to resize the window.
The LFG interface has received new functionality. To activate the LFG Interface, simply press the ‘P’ key.
The screen has been re-arranged to allow for more information and additional features.
Party Leaders can advertise existing groups to add new members.
Individuals can advertise themselves as being available for a group. To instead create an entirely new group, select the CREATE PARTY option. Otherwise, the character is listed as an individual looking for a group to join.
New search filters have been added to better find the right group dynamic.
Players can now Invite, Join and Whisper to individuals or groups listed in the LFG interface.

Once all the mods are removed, insert the item into an Augmetrex 3000. Now click any of the three "Add Property" buttons to reroll the item attributes.
All item attributes will be rerolled and the item balance will be up-to-date. If the item level was previously upgraded with the Nano Forge, the additional item levels will be added to the newly generated base level after the item reroll. This means that the new item level may not be the same.

C'est bien ça la respec. Par contre va falloir penser a laisser de la place dans l'inventaire pour avoir le token. Sinon je sens bien les problèmes à venir.
J'ai hate de voir ce que Stonehenge va donner, par contre j'ai peur qu'il ne reste plus grand monde sur le serveur d'ici la.

[Grayback]

Les screens font vraiment envie, les decors changent énormément je trouve.

Ils vont peut être arriver a justifier l'abonnement

Ca va être chaud de choisir une respec pour les Mages, les changements sont vraiment partout... j'espère que l'équivalence solo du patch ne sera pas si longue pour qu'on puisse tester avant d'investir définitivement nos points

[Setsuna_Mudo]

Ouais enfin c'est le patch note de la version test, donc beaucoup de changements surviendront encore à celui-ci d'ici la sortie du dit patch.

Sinon je trouve que le pentacle sur les screen fait très sanctuaire de Diablo

C'est stupide dans tous les cas.
Qu'on cappe à 96% ou 98%.. On cappe une valeur pour des mobs de notre lvl..

Hors je ne sais pas pour vous mais, personnellement, les mobs que je fouette sont lvl+7 donc 98% c'est kikoo mais c'est loin d'être une valeur vérifiée sur le terrain.



Et 10 pts dans AOD étaient jusqu'à présent.. tout sauf inutile.
Pour la raison évoquée au dessus.
On ne frappe pas du mobs de notre lvl avec 10 pts dans AOD..

'fin moi j'dis ça, j'dis rien.


J'espère sur la respec gratos en tout cas à la sortie de la 1.0

[kalanye]

confirmé pour janvier (manquerait plus que ça, un mois de retard deja !)
et une ptite video que je ne crois pas avoir vu ici :
http://webhanbit.nefficient.co.kr/ha...ge_preview.wmv

[zac]

question subsidiaire, est ce que c'est une suite logique du jeu que l'on entamera une fois au level 50 ou c'est tout simplement abordable dès le level 1 ?
sait-on si on pourra y faire evoluer ses persos actuels ou s'il faudra recommencer un level 1 ?

[kalanye]

je crois que ça s'adapte a tout perso quel que soit son level...
